Toolsets are named bundles of tools that control what the agent can do. They're the primary mechanism for configuring tool availability per platform, per session, or per task.
## How Toolsets Work
Every tool belongs to exactly one toolset. When you enable a toolset, all tools in that bundle become available to the agent. Toolsets come in three kinds:
- **Core** — A single logical group of related tools (e.g., `file` bundles `read_file` , `write_file` , `patch` , `search_files` )
- **Composite** — Combines multiple core toolsets for a common scenario (e.g., `debugging` bundles file, terminal, and web tools)
- **Platform** — A complete tool configuration for a specific deployment context (e.g., `hermes-cli` is the default for interactive CLI sessions)
## Configuring Toolsets
### Per-session (CLI)
```bash
hermes chat --toolsets web,file,terminal
hermes chat --toolsets debugging # composite — expands to file + terminal + web
hermes chat --toolsets all # everything
```
### Per-platform (config.yaml)
```yaml
toolsets:
- hermes-cli # default for CLI
# - hermes-telegram # override for Telegram gateway
```
### Interactive management
```bash
hermes tools # curses UI to enable/disable per platform
```
Or in-session:
```
/tools list
/tools disable browser
/tools enable rl
```
## Core Toolsets
| Toolset | Tools | Purpose |
|---------|-------|---------|
feat(browser): CDP supervisor — dialog detection + response + cross-origin iframe eval (#14540)
* docs: browser CDP supervisor design (for upcoming PR)
Design doc ahead of implementation — dialog + iframe detection/interaction
via a persistent CDP supervisor. Covers backend capability matrix (verified
live 2026-04-23), architecture, lifecycle, policy, agent surface, PR split,
non-goals, and test plan.
Supersedes #12550.
No code changes in this commit.
* feat(browser): add persistent CDP supervisor for dialog + frame detection
Single persistent CDP WebSocket per Hermes task_id that subscribes to
Page/Runtime/Target events and maintains thread-safe state for pending
dialogs, frame tree, and console errors.
Supervisor lives in its own daemon thread running an asyncio loop;
external callers use sync API (snapshot(), respond_to_dialog()) that
bridges onto the loop.
Auto-attaches to OOPIF child targets via Target.setAutoAttach{flatten:true}
and enables Page+Runtime on each so iframe-origin dialogs surface through
the same supervisor.
Dialog policies: must_respond (default, 300s safety timeout),
auto_dismiss, auto_accept.
Frame tree capped at 30 entries + OOPIF depth 2 to keep snapshot
payloads bounded on ad-heavy pages.
E2E verified against real Chrome via smoke test — detects + responds
to main-frame alerts, iframe-contentWindow alerts, preserves frame
tree, graceful no-dialog error path, clean shutdown.
No agent-facing tool wiring in this commit (comes next).
* feat(browser): add browser_dialog tool wired to CDP supervisor
Agent-facing response-only tool. Schema:
action: 'accept' | 'dismiss' (required)
prompt_text: response for prompt() dialogs (optional)
dialog_id: disambiguate when multiple dialogs queued (optional)
Handler:
SUPERVISOR_REGISTRY.get(task_id).respond_to_dialog(...)
check_fn shares _browser_cdp_check with browser_cdp so both surface and
hide together. When no supervisor is attached (Camofox, default
Playwright, or no browser session started yet), tool is hidden; if
somehow invoked it returns a clear error pointing the agent to
browser_navigate / /browser connect.
Registered in _HERMES_CORE_TOOLS and the browser / hermes-acp /
hermes-api-server toolsets alongside browser_cdp.
* feat(browser): wire CDP supervisor into session lifecycle + browser_snapshot
Supervisor lifecycle:
* _get_session_info lazy-starts the supervisor after a session row is
materialized — covers every backend code path (Browserbase, cdp_url
override, /browser connect, future providers) with one hook.
* cleanup_browser(task_id) stops the supervisor for that task first
(before the backend tears down CDP).
* cleanup_all_browsers() calls SUPERVISOR_REGISTRY.stop_all().
* /browser connect eagerly starts the supervisor for task 'default'
so the first snapshot already shows pending_dialogs.
* /browser disconnect stops the supervisor.
CDP URL resolution for the supervisor:
1. BROWSER_CDP_URL / browser.cdp_url override.
2. Fallback: session_info['cdp_url'] from cloud providers (Browserbase).
browser_snapshot merges supervisor state (pending_dialogs + frame_tree)
into its JSON output when a supervisor is active — the agent reads
pending_dialogs from the snapshot it already requests, then calls
browser_dialog to respond. No extra tool surface.
Config defaults:
* browser.dialog_policy: 'must_respond' (new)
* browser.dialog_timeout_s: 300 (new)
No version bump — new keys deep-merge into existing browser section.
Deadlock fix in supervisor event dispatch:
* _on_dialog_opening and _on_target_attached used to await CDP calls
while the reader was still processing an event — but only the reader
can set the response Future, so the call timed out.
* Both now fire asyncio.create_task(...) so the reader stays pumping.
* auto_dismiss/auto_accept now actually close the dialog immediately.
Tests (tests/tools/test_browser_supervisor.py, 11 tests, real Chrome):
* supervisor start/snapshot
* main-frame alert detection + dismiss
* iframe.contentWindow alert
* prompt() with prompt_text reply
* respond with no pending dialog -> clean error
* auto_dismiss clears on event
* registry idempotency
* registry stop -> snapshot reports inactive
* browser_dialog tool no-supervisor error
* browser_dialog invalid action
* browser_dialog end-to-end via tool handler
xdist-safe: chrome_cdp fixture uses a per-worker port.
Skipped when google-chrome/chromium isn't installed.
* docs(browser): document browser_dialog tool + CDP supervisor
- user-guide/features/browser.md: new browser_dialog section with
workflow, availability gate, and dialog_policy table
- reference/tools-reference.md: row for browser_dialog, tool count
bumped 53 -> 54, browser tools count 11 -> 12
- reference/toolsets-reference.md: browser_dialog added to browser
toolset row with note on pending_dialogs / frame_tree snapshot fields
Full design doc lives at
developer-guide/browser-supervisor.md (committed earlier).
* fix(browser): reconnect loop + recent_dialogs for Browserbase visibility
Found via Browserbase E2E test that revealed two production-critical issues:
1. **Supervisor WebSocket drops when other clients disconnect.** Browserbase's
CDP proxy tears down our long-lived WebSocket whenever a short-lived
client (e.g. agent-browser CLI's per-command CDP connection) disconnects.
Fixed with a reconnecting _run loop that re-attaches with exponential
backoff on drops. _page_session_id and _child_sessions are reset on each
reconnect; pending_dialogs and frames are preserved across reconnects.
2. **Browserbase auto-dismisses dialogs server-side within ~10ms.** Their
Playwright-based CDP proxy dismisses alert/confirm/prompt before our
Page.handleJavaScriptDialog call can respond. So pending_dialogs is
empty by the time the agent reads a snapshot on Browserbase.
Added a recent_dialogs ring buffer (capacity 20) that retains a
DialogRecord for every dialog that opened, with a closed_by tag:
* 'agent' — agent called browser_dialog
* 'auto_policy' — local auto_dismiss/auto_accept fired
* 'watchdog' — must_respond timeout auto-dismissed (300s default)
* 'remote' — browser/backend closed it on us (Browserbase)
Agents on Browserbase now see the dialog history with closed_by='remote'
so they at least know a dialog fired, even though they couldn't respond.
3. **Page.javascriptDialogClosed matching bug.** The event doesn't include a
'message' field (CDP spec has only 'result' and 'userInput') but our
_on_dialog_closed was matching on message. Fixed to match by session_id
+ oldest-first, with a safety assumption that only one dialog is in
flight per session (the JS thread is blocked while a dialog is up).
Docs + tests updated:
* browser.md: new availability matrix showing the three backends and
which mode (pending / recent / response) each supports
* developer-guide/browser-supervisor.md: three-field snapshot schema
with closed_by semantics
* test_browser_supervisor.py: +test_recent_dialogs_ring_buffer (12/12
passing against real Chrome)
E2E verified both backends:
* Local Chrome via /browser connect: detect + respond full workflow
(smoke_supervisor.py all 7 scenarios pass)
* Browserbase: detect via recent_dialogs with closed_by='remote'
(smoke_supervisor_browserbase_v2.py passes)
Camofox remains out of scope (REST-only, no CDP) — tracked for
upstream PR 3.
* feat(browser): XHR bridge for dialog response on Browserbase (FIXED)
Browserbase's CDP proxy auto-dismisses native JS dialogs within ~10ms, so
Page.handleJavaScriptDialog calls lose the race. Solution: bypass native
dialogs entirely.
The supervisor now injects Page.addScriptToEvaluateOnNewDocument with a
JavaScript override for window.alert/confirm/prompt. Those overrides
perform a synchronous XMLHttpRequest to a magic host
('hermes-dialog-bridge.invalid'). We intercept those XHRs via Fetch.enable
with a requestStage=Request pattern.
Flow when a page calls alert('hi'):
1. window.alert override intercepts, builds XHR GET to
http://hermes-dialog-bridge.invalid/?kind=alert&message=hi
2. Sync XHR blocks the page's JS thread (mirrors real dialog semantics)
3. Fetch.requestPaused fires on our WebSocket; supervisor surfaces
it as a pending dialog with bridge_request_id set
4. Agent reads pending_dialogs from browser_snapshot, calls browser_dialog
5. Supervisor calls Fetch.fulfillRequest with JSON body:
{accept: true|false, prompt_text: '...', dialog_id: 'd-N'}
6. The injected script parses the body, returns the appropriate value
from the override (undefined for alert, bool for confirm, string|null
for prompt)
This works identically on Browserbase AND local Chrome — no native dialog
ever fires, so Browserbase's auto-dismiss has nothing to race. Dialog
policies (must_respond / auto_dismiss / auto_accept) all still work.
Bridge is installed on every attached session (main page + OOPIF child
sessions) so iframe dialogs are captured too.
Native-dialog path kept as a fallback for backends that don't auto-dismiss
(so a page that somehow bypasses our override — e.g. iframes that load
after Fetch.enable but before the init-script runs — still gets observed
via Page.javascriptDialogOpening).
E2E VERIFIED:
* Local Chrome: 13/13 pytest tests green (12 original + new
test_bridge_captures_prompt_and_returns_reply_text that asserts
window.__ret === 'AGENT-SUPPLIED-REPLY' after agent responds)
* Browserbase: smoke_bb_bridge_v2.py runs 4/4 PASS:
- alert('BB-ALERT-MSG') dismiss → page.alert_ret = undefined ✓
- prompt('BB-PROMPT-MSG', 'default-xyz') accept with 'AGENT-REPLY'
→ page.prompt_ret === 'AGENT-REPLY' ✓
- confirm('BB-CONFIRM-MSG') accept → page.confirm_ret === true ✓
- confirm('BB-CONFIRM-MSG') dismiss → page.confirm_ret === false ✓
Docs updated in browser.md and developer-guide/browser-supervisor.md —
availability matrix now shows Browserbase at full parity with local
Chrome for both detection and response.
* feat(browser): cross-origin iframe interaction via browser_cdp(frame_id=...)
Adds iframe interaction to the CDP supervisor PR (was queued as PR 2).
Design: browser_cdp gets an optional frame_id parameter. When set, the
tool looks up the frame in the supervisor's frame_tree, grabs its child
cdp_session_id (OOPIF session), and dispatches the CDP call through the
supervisor's already-connected WebSocket via run_coroutine_threadsafe.
Why not stateless: on Browserbase, each fresh browser_cdp WebSocket
must re-negotiate against a signed connectUrl. The session info carries
a specific URL that can expire while the supervisor's long-lived
connection stays valid. Routing via the supervisor sidesteps this.
Agent workflow:
1. browser_snapshot → frame_tree.children[] shows OOPIFs with is_oopif=true
2. browser_cdp(method='Runtime.evaluate', frame_id=<OOPIF frame_id>,
params={'expression': 'document.title', 'returnByValue': True})
3. Supervisor dispatches the call on the OOPIF's child session
Supervisor state fixes needed along the way:
* _on_frame_detached now skips reason='swap' (frame migrating processes)
* _on_frame_detached also skips when the frame is an OOPIF with a live
child session — Browserbase fires spurious remove events when a
same-origin iframe gets promoted to OOPIF
* _on_target_detached clears cdp_session_id but KEEPS the frame record
so the agent still sees the OOPIF in frame_tree during transient
session flaps
E2E VERIFIED on Browserbase (smoke_bb_iframe_agent_path.py):
browser_cdp(method='Runtime.evaluate',
params={'expression': 'document.title', 'returnByValue': True},
frame_id=<OOPIF>)
→ {'success': True, 'result': {'value': 'Example Domain'}}
The iframe is <iframe src='https://example.com/'> inside a top-level
data: URL page on a real Browserbase session. The agent Runtime.evaluates
INSIDE the cross-origin iframe and gets example.com's title back.
Tests (tests/tools/test_browser_supervisor.py — 16 pass total):
* test_browser_cdp_frame_id_routes_via_supervisor — injects fake OOPIF,
verifies routing via supervisor, Runtime.evaluate returns 1+1=2
* test_browser_cdp_frame_id_missing_supervisor — clean error when no
supervisor attached
* test_browser_cdp_frame_id_not_in_frame_tree — clean error on bad
frame_id
Docs (browser.md and developer-guide/browser-supervisor.md) updated with
the iframe workflow, availability matrix now shows OOPIF eval as shipped
for local Chrome + Browserbase.
* test(browser): real-OOPIF E2E verified manually + chrome_cdp uses --site-per-process
When asked 'did you test the iframe stuff' I had only done a mocked
pytest (fake injected OOPIF) plus a Browserbase E2E. Closed the
local-Chrome real-OOPIF gap by writing /tmp/dialog-iframe-test/
smoke_local_oopif.py:
* 2 http servers on different hostnames (localhost:18905 + 127.0.0.1:18906)
* Chrome with --site-per-process so the cross-origin iframe becomes a
real OOPIF in its own process
* Navigate, find OOPIF in supervisor.frame_tree, call
browser_cdp(method='Runtime.evaluate', frame_id=<OOPIF>) which routes
through the supervisor's child session
* Asserts iframe document.title === 'INNER-FRAME-XYZ' (from the
inner page, retrieved via OOPIF eval)
PASSED on 2026-04-23.
Tried to embed this as a pytest but hit an asyncio version quirk between
venv (3.11) and the system python (3.13) — Page.navigate hangs in the
pytest harness but works in standalone. Left a self-documenting skip
test that points to the smoke script + describes the verification.
chrome_cdp fixture now passes --site-per-process so future iframe tests
can rely on OOPIF behavior.
Result: 16 pass + 1 documented-skip = 17 tests in
tests/tools/test_browser_supervisor.py.
* docs(browser): add dialog_policy + dialog_timeout_s to configuration.md, fix tool count
Pre-merge docs audit revealed two gaps:
1. user-guide/configuration.md browser config example was missing the
two new dialog_* knobs. Added with a short table explaining
must_respond / auto_dismiss / auto_accept semantics and a link to
the feature page for the full workflow.
2. reference/tools-reference.md header said '54 built-in tools' — real
count on main is 54, this branch adds browser_dialog so it's 55.
Fixed the header. (browser count was already correctly bumped
11 -> 12 in the earlier docs commit.)
No code changes.

docs: correctness audit — fix wrong values, add missing coverage (#11972)
Comprehensive audit of every reference/messaging/feature doc page against the
live code registries (PROVIDER_REGISTRY, OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, COMMAND_REGISTRY,
TOOLSETS, tool registry, on-disk skills). Every fix was verified against code
before writing.
### Wrong values fixed (users would paste-and-fail)
- reference/environment-variables.md:
- DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL default was `coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1` \u2192
actual `dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`.
- MINIMAX_BASE_URL and MINIMAX_CN_BASE_URL defaults were `/v1` \u2192 actual
`/anthropic` (Hermes calls MiniMax via its Anthropic Messages endpoint).
- reference/toolsets-reference.md MCP example used the non-existent nested
`mcp: servers:` key \u2192 real key is the flat `mcp_servers:`.
- reference/skills-catalog.md listed ~20 bundled skills that no longer exist
on disk (all moved to `optional-skills/`). Regenerated the whole bundled
section from `skills/**/SKILL.md` \u2014 79 skills, accurate paths and names.
- messaging/slack.md ":::info" callout claimed Slack has no
`free_response_channels` equivalent; both the env var and the yaml key are
in fact read.
- messaging/qqbot.md documented `QQ_MARKDOWN_SUPPORT` as an env var, but the
adapter only reads `extra.markdown_support` from config.yaml. Removed the
env var row and noted config-only nature.
- messaging/qqbot.md `hermes setup gateway` \u2192 `hermes gateway setup`.
### Missing coverage added
- Providers: AWS Bedrock and Qwen Portal (qwen-oauth) \u2014 both in
PROVIDER_REGISTRY but undocumented everywhere. Added sections to
integrations/providers.md, rows to quickstart.md and fallback-providers.md.
- integrations/providers.md "Fallback Model" provider list now includes
gemini, google-gemini-cli, qwen-oauth, xai, nvidia, ollama-cloud, bedrock.
- reference/cli-commands.md `--provider` enum and HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER
enum in env-vars now include the same set.
- reference/slash-commands.md: added `/agents` (alias `/tasks`) and `/copy`.
Removed duplicate rows for `/snapshot`, `/fast` (\u00d72), `/debug`.
- reference/tools-reference.md: fixed "47 built-in tools" \u2192 52. Added
`feishu_doc` and `feishu_drive` toolset sections.
- reference/toolsets-reference.md: added `feishu_doc` / `feishu_drive` core
rows + all missing `hermes-<platform>` toolsets in the platform table
(bluebubbles, dingtalk, feishu, qqbot, wecom, wecom-callback, weixin,
homeassistant, webhook, gateway). Fixed the `debugging` composite to
describe the actual `includes=[...]` mechanism.
- reference/optional-skills-catalog.md: added `fitness-nutrition`.
- reference/environment-variables.md: added NOUS_BASE_URL,
NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL, NVIDIA_API_KEY/BASE_URL, OLLAMA_API_KEY/BASE_URL,
XAI_API_KEY/BASE_URL, MISTRAL_API_KEY, AWS_REGION/AWS_PROFILE,
BEDROCK_BASE_URL, HERMES_QWEN_BASE_URL, DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS,
DISCORD_PROXY, TELEGRAM_REPLY_TO_MODE, MATRIX_DEVICE_ID, MATRIX_REACTIONS,
QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME, QQ_SANDBOX.
- messaging/discord.md: documented DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS, DISCORD_PROXY,
HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS and HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_SPLIT
_DELAY_SECONDS (all actively read by the adapter).
- messaging/matrix.md: documented MATRIX_REACTIONS (default true).
- messaging/telegram.md: removed the redundant second Webhook Mode section
that invented a `telegram.webhook_mode: true` yaml key the adapter does
not read.
- user-guide/features/hooks.md: added `on_session_finalize` and
`on_session_reset` (both emitted via invoke_hook but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/api-server.md: documented GET /health/detailed, the
`/api/jobs/*` CRUD surface, POST /v1/runs, and GET /v1/runs/{id}/events
(10 routes that were live but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: added `approval` and
`title_generation` auxiliary-task rows; added gemini, bedrock, qwen-oauth
to the supported-providers table.
- user-guide/features/tts.md: "seven providers" \u2192 "eight" (post-xAI add
oversight in #11942).
- user-guide/configuration.md: TTS provider enum gains `xai` and `gemini`;
yaml example block gains `mistral:`, `gemini:`, `xai:` subsections.
Auxiliary-provider enum now enumerates all real registry entries.
- reference/faq.md: stale AIAgent/config examples bumped from
`nous/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b` and `claude-sonnet-4.6` to
`claude-opus-4.7`.
### Docs-site integrity
- guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md referenced two nonexistent hooks
(`pre_api_request`, `post_api_request`). Replaced with the real
`on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset` entries.
- messaging/open-webui.md and features/api-server.md had pre-existing
broken links to `/docs/user-guide/features/profiles` (actual path is
`/docs/user-guide/profiles`). Fixed.
- reference/skills-catalog.md had one `<1%` literal that MDX parsed as a
JSX tag. Escaped to `<1%`.
### False positives filtered out (not changed, verified correct)
- `/set-home` is a registered alias of `/sethome` \u2014 docs were fine.
- `hermes setup gateway` is valid syntax (`hermes setup \<section\>`);
changed in qqbot.md for cross-doc consistency, not as a bug fix.
- Telegram reactions "disabled by default" matches code (default `"false"`).
- Matrix encryption "opt-in" matches code (empty env default \u2192 disabled).
- `pre_api_request` / `post_api_request` hooks do NOT exist in current code;
documented instead the real `on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset`.
- SIGNAL_IGNORE_STORIES is already in env-vars.md (subagent missed it).
Validation:
- `docusaurus build` \u2014 passes (only pre-existing nix-setup anchor warning).
- `ascii-guard lint docs` \u2014 124 files, 0 errors.
- 22 files changed, +317 / \u2212158.

docs: correctness audit — fix wrong values, add missing coverage (#11972)
Comprehensive audit of every reference/messaging/feature doc page against the
live code registries (PROVIDER_REGISTRY, OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, COMMAND_REGISTRY,
TOOLSETS, tool registry, on-disk skills). Every fix was verified against code
before writing.
### Wrong values fixed (users would paste-and-fail)
- reference/environment-variables.md:
- DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL default was `coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1` \u2192
actual `dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`.
- MINIMAX_BASE_URL and MINIMAX_CN_BASE_URL defaults were `/v1` \u2192 actual
`/anthropic` (Hermes calls MiniMax via its Anthropic Messages endpoint).
- reference/toolsets-reference.md MCP example used the non-existent nested
`mcp: servers:` key \u2192 real key is the flat `mcp_servers:`.
- reference/skills-catalog.md listed ~20 bundled skills that no longer exist
on disk (all moved to `optional-skills/`). Regenerated the whole bundled
section from `skills/**/SKILL.md` \u2014 79 skills, accurate paths and names.
- messaging/slack.md ":::info" callout claimed Slack has no
`free_response_channels` equivalent; both the env var and the yaml key are
in fact read.
- messaging/qqbot.md documented `QQ_MARKDOWN_SUPPORT` as an env var, but the
adapter only reads `extra.markdown_support` from config.yaml. Removed the
env var row and noted config-only nature.
- messaging/qqbot.md `hermes setup gateway` \u2192 `hermes gateway setup`.
### Missing coverage added
- Providers: AWS Bedrock and Qwen Portal (qwen-oauth) \u2014 both in
PROVIDER_REGISTRY but undocumented everywhere. Added sections to
integrations/providers.md, rows to quickstart.md and fallback-providers.md.
- integrations/providers.md "Fallback Model" provider list now includes
gemini, google-gemini-cli, qwen-oauth, xai, nvidia, ollama-cloud, bedrock.
- reference/cli-commands.md `--provider` enum and HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER
enum in env-vars now include the same set.
- reference/slash-commands.md: added `/agents` (alias `/tasks`) and `/copy`.
Removed duplicate rows for `/snapshot`, `/fast` (\u00d72), `/debug`.
- reference/tools-reference.md: fixed "47 built-in tools" \u2192 52. Added
`feishu_doc` and `feishu_drive` toolset sections.
- reference/toolsets-reference.md: added `feishu_doc` / `feishu_drive` core
rows + all missing `hermes-<platform>` toolsets in the platform table
(bluebubbles, dingtalk, feishu, qqbot, wecom, wecom-callback, weixin,
homeassistant, webhook, gateway). Fixed the `debugging` composite to
describe the actual `includes=[...]` mechanism.
- reference/optional-skills-catalog.md: added `fitness-nutrition`.
- reference/environment-variables.md: added NOUS_BASE_URL,
NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL, NVIDIA_API_KEY/BASE_URL, OLLAMA_API_KEY/BASE_URL,
XAI_API_KEY/BASE_URL, MISTRAL_API_KEY, AWS_REGION/AWS_PROFILE,
BEDROCK_BASE_URL, HERMES_QWEN_BASE_URL, DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS,
DISCORD_PROXY, TELEGRAM_REPLY_TO_MODE, MATRIX_DEVICE_ID, MATRIX_REACTIONS,
QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME, QQ_SANDBOX.
- messaging/discord.md: documented DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS, DISCORD_PROXY,
HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS and HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_SPLIT
_DELAY_SECONDS (all actively read by the adapter).
- messaging/matrix.md: documented MATRIX_REACTIONS (default true).
- messaging/telegram.md: removed the redundant second Webhook Mode section
that invented a `telegram.webhook_mode: true` yaml key the adapter does
not read.
- user-guide/features/hooks.md: added `on_session_finalize` and
`on_session_reset` (both emitted via invoke_hook but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/api-server.md: documented GET /health/detailed, the
`/api/jobs/*` CRUD surface, POST /v1/runs, and GET /v1/runs/{id}/events
(10 routes that were live but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: added `approval` and
`title_generation` auxiliary-task rows; added gemini, bedrock, qwen-oauth
to the supported-providers table.
- user-guide/features/tts.md: "seven providers" \u2192 "eight" (post-xAI add
oversight in #11942).
- user-guide/configuration.md: TTS provider enum gains `xai` and `gemini`;
yaml example block gains `mistral:`, `gemini:`, `xai:` subsections.
Auxiliary-provider enum now enumerates all real registry entries.
- reference/faq.md: stale AIAgent/config examples bumped from
`nous/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b` and `claude-sonnet-4.6` to
`claude-opus-4.7`.
### Docs-site integrity
- guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md referenced two nonexistent hooks
(`pre_api_request`, `post_api_request`). Replaced with the real
`on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset` entries.
- messaging/open-webui.md and features/api-server.md had pre-existing
broken links to `/docs/user-guide/features/profiles` (actual path is
`/docs/user-guide/profiles`). Fixed.
- reference/skills-catalog.md had one `<1%` literal that MDX parsed as a
JSX tag. Escaped to `<1%`.
### False positives filtered out (not changed, verified correct)
- `/set-home` is a registered alias of `/sethome` \u2014 docs were fine.
- `hermes setup gateway` is valid syntax (`hermes setup \<section\>`);
changed in qqbot.md for cross-doc consistency, not as a bug fix.
- Telegram reactions "disabled by default" matches code (default `"false"`).
- Matrix encryption "opt-in" matches code (empty env default \u2192 disabled).
- `pre_api_request` / `post_api_request` hooks do NOT exist in current code;
documented instead the real `on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset`.
- SIGNAL_IGNORE_STORIES is already in env-vars.md (subagent missed it).
Validation:
- `docusaurus build` \u2014 passes (only pre-existing nix-setup anchor warning).
- `ascii-guard lint docs` \u2014 124 files, 0 errors.
- 22 files changed, +317 / \u2212158.

## Platform Toolsets
Platform toolsets define the complete tool configuration for a deployment target. Most messaging platforms use the same set as `hermes-cli` :

docs: correctness audit — fix wrong values, add missing coverage (#11972)
Comprehensive audit of every reference/messaging/feature doc page against the
live code registries (PROVIDER_REGISTRY, OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, COMMAND_REGISTRY,
TOOLSETS, tool registry, on-disk skills). Every fix was verified against code
before writing.
### Wrong values fixed (users would paste-and-fail)
- reference/environment-variables.md:
- DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL default was `coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1` \u2192
actual `dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`.
- MINIMAX_BASE_URL and MINIMAX_CN_BASE_URL defaults were `/v1` \u2192 actual
`/anthropic` (Hermes calls MiniMax via its Anthropic Messages endpoint).
- reference/toolsets-reference.md MCP example used the non-existent nested
`mcp: servers:` key \u2192 real key is the flat `mcp_servers:`.
- reference/skills-catalog.md listed ~20 bundled skills that no longer exist
on disk (all moved to `optional-skills/`). Regenerated the whole bundled
section from `skills/**/SKILL.md` \u2014 79 skills, accurate paths and names.
- messaging/slack.md ":::info" callout claimed Slack has no
`free_response_channels` equivalent; both the env var and the yaml key are
in fact read.
- messaging/qqbot.md documented `QQ_MARKDOWN_SUPPORT` as an env var, but the
adapter only reads `extra.markdown_support` from config.yaml. Removed the
env var row and noted config-only nature.
- messaging/qqbot.md `hermes setup gateway` \u2192 `hermes gateway setup`.
### Missing coverage added
- Providers: AWS Bedrock and Qwen Portal (qwen-oauth) \u2014 both in
PROVIDER_REGISTRY but undocumented everywhere. Added sections to
integrations/providers.md, rows to quickstart.md and fallback-providers.md.
- integrations/providers.md "Fallback Model" provider list now includes
gemini, google-gemini-cli, qwen-oauth, xai, nvidia, ollama-cloud, bedrock.
- reference/cli-commands.md `--provider` enum and HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER
enum in env-vars now include the same set.
- reference/slash-commands.md: added `/agents` (alias `/tasks`) and `/copy`.
Removed duplicate rows for `/snapshot`, `/fast` (\u00d72), `/debug`.
- reference/tools-reference.md: fixed "47 built-in tools" \u2192 52. Added
`feishu_doc` and `feishu_drive` toolset sections.
- reference/toolsets-reference.md: added `feishu_doc` / `feishu_drive` core
rows + all missing `hermes-<platform>` toolsets in the platform table
(bluebubbles, dingtalk, feishu, qqbot, wecom, wecom-callback, weixin,
homeassistant, webhook, gateway). Fixed the `debugging` composite to
describe the actual `includes=[...]` mechanism.
- reference/optional-skills-catalog.md: added `fitness-nutrition`.
- reference/environment-variables.md: added NOUS_BASE_URL,
NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL, NVIDIA_API_KEY/BASE_URL, OLLAMA_API_KEY/BASE_URL,
XAI_API_KEY/BASE_URL, MISTRAL_API_KEY, AWS_REGION/AWS_PROFILE,
BEDROCK_BASE_URL, HERMES_QWEN_BASE_URL, DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS,
DISCORD_PROXY, TELEGRAM_REPLY_TO_MODE, MATRIX_DEVICE_ID, MATRIX_REACTIONS,
QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME, QQ_SANDBOX.
- messaging/discord.md: documented DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS, DISCORD_PROXY,
HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS and HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_SPLIT
_DELAY_SECONDS (all actively read by the adapter).
- messaging/matrix.md: documented MATRIX_REACTIONS (default true).
- messaging/telegram.md: removed the redundant second Webhook Mode section
that invented a `telegram.webhook_mode: true` yaml key the adapter does
not read.
- user-guide/features/hooks.md: added `on_session_finalize` and
`on_session_reset` (both emitted via invoke_hook but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/api-server.md: documented GET /health/detailed, the
`/api/jobs/*` CRUD surface, POST /v1/runs, and GET /v1/runs/{id}/events
(10 routes that were live but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: added `approval` and
`title_generation` auxiliary-task rows; added gemini, bedrock, qwen-oauth
to the supported-providers table.
- user-guide/features/tts.md: "seven providers" \u2192 "eight" (post-xAI add
oversight in #11942).
- user-guide/configuration.md: TTS provider enum gains `xai` and `gemini`;
yaml example block gains `mistral:`, `gemini:`, `xai:` subsections.
Auxiliary-provider enum now enumerates all real registry entries.
- reference/faq.md: stale AIAgent/config examples bumped from
`nous/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b` and `claude-sonnet-4.6` to
`claude-opus-4.7`.
### Docs-site integrity
- guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md referenced two nonexistent hooks
(`pre_api_request`, `post_api_request`). Replaced with the real
`on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset` entries.
- messaging/open-webui.md and features/api-server.md had pre-existing
broken links to `/docs/user-guide/features/profiles` (actual path is
`/docs/user-guide/profiles`). Fixed.
- reference/skills-catalog.md had one `<1%` literal that MDX parsed as a
JSX tag. Escaped to `<1%`.
### False positives filtered out (not changed, verified correct)
- `/set-home` is a registered alias of `/sethome` \u2014 docs were fine.
- `hermes setup gateway` is valid syntax (`hermes setup \<section\>`);
changed in qqbot.md for cross-doc consistency, not as a bug fix.
- Telegram reactions "disabled by default" matches code (default `"false"`).
- Matrix encryption "opt-in" matches code (empty env default \u2192 disabled).
- `pre_api_request` / `post_api_request` hooks do NOT exist in current code;
documented instead the real `on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset`.
- SIGNAL_IGNORE_STORIES is already in env-vars.md (subagent missed it).
Validation:
- `docusaurus build` \u2014 passes (only pre-existing nix-setup anchor warning).
- `ascii-guard lint docs` \u2014 124 files, 0 errors.
- 22 files changed, +317 / \u2212158.

docs: correctness audit — fix wrong values, add missing coverage (#11972)
Comprehensive audit of every reference/messaging/feature doc page against the
live code registries (PROVIDER_REGISTRY, OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, COMMAND_REGISTRY,
TOOLSETS, tool registry, on-disk skills). Every fix was verified against code
before writing.
### Wrong values fixed (users would paste-and-fail)
- reference/environment-variables.md:
- DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL default was `coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1` \u2192
actual `dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`.
- MINIMAX_BASE_URL and MINIMAX_CN_BASE_URL defaults were `/v1` \u2192 actual
`/anthropic` (Hermes calls MiniMax via its Anthropic Messages endpoint).
- reference/toolsets-reference.md MCP example used the non-existent nested
`mcp: servers:` key \u2192 real key is the flat `mcp_servers:`.
- reference/skills-catalog.md listed ~20 bundled skills that no longer exist
on disk (all moved to `optional-skills/`). Regenerated the whole bundled
section from `skills/**/SKILL.md` \u2014 79 skills, accurate paths and names.
- messaging/slack.md ":::info" callout claimed Slack has no
`free_response_channels` equivalent; both the env var and the yaml key are
in fact read.
- messaging/qqbot.md documented `QQ_MARKDOWN_SUPPORT` as an env var, but the
adapter only reads `extra.markdown_support` from config.yaml. Removed the
env var row and noted config-only nature.
- messaging/qqbot.md `hermes setup gateway` \u2192 `hermes gateway setup`.
### Missing coverage added
- Providers: AWS Bedrock and Qwen Portal (qwen-oauth) \u2014 both in
PROVIDER_REGISTRY but undocumented everywhere. Added sections to
integrations/providers.md, rows to quickstart.md and fallback-providers.md.
- integrations/providers.md "Fallback Model" provider list now includes
gemini, google-gemini-cli, qwen-oauth, xai, nvidia, ollama-cloud, bedrock.
- reference/cli-commands.md `--provider` enum and HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER
enum in env-vars now include the same set.
- reference/slash-commands.md: added `/agents` (alias `/tasks`) and `/copy`.
Removed duplicate rows for `/snapshot`, `/fast` (\u00d72), `/debug`.
- reference/tools-reference.md: fixed "47 built-in tools" \u2192 52. Added
`feishu_doc` and `feishu_drive` toolset sections.
- reference/toolsets-reference.md: added `feishu_doc` / `feishu_drive` core
rows + all missing `hermes-<platform>` toolsets in the platform table
(bluebubbles, dingtalk, feishu, qqbot, wecom, wecom-callback, weixin,
homeassistant, webhook, gateway). Fixed the `debugging` composite to
describe the actual `includes=[...]` mechanism.
- reference/optional-skills-catalog.md: added `fitness-nutrition`.
- reference/environment-variables.md: added NOUS_BASE_URL,
NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL, NVIDIA_API_KEY/BASE_URL, OLLAMA_API_KEY/BASE_URL,
XAI_API_KEY/BASE_URL, MISTRAL_API_KEY, AWS_REGION/AWS_PROFILE,
BEDROCK_BASE_URL, HERMES_QWEN_BASE_URL, DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS,
DISCORD_PROXY, TELEGRAM_REPLY_TO_MODE, MATRIX_DEVICE_ID, MATRIX_REACTIONS,
QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME, QQ_SANDBOX.
- messaging/discord.md: documented DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS, DISCORD_PROXY,
HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS and HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_SPLIT
_DELAY_SECONDS (all actively read by the adapter).
- messaging/matrix.md: documented MATRIX_REACTIONS (default true).
- messaging/telegram.md: removed the redundant second Webhook Mode section
that invented a `telegram.webhook_mode: true` yaml key the adapter does
not read.
- user-guide/features/hooks.md: added `on_session_finalize` and
`on_session_reset` (both emitted via invoke_hook but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/api-server.md: documented GET /health/detailed, the
`/api/jobs/*` CRUD surface, POST /v1/runs, and GET /v1/runs/{id}/events
(10 routes that were live but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: added `approval` and
`title_generation` auxiliary-task rows; added gemini, bedrock, qwen-oauth
to the supported-providers table.
- user-guide/features/tts.md: "seven providers" \u2192 "eight" (post-xAI add
oversight in #11942).
- user-guide/configuration.md: TTS provider enum gains `xai` and `gemini`;
yaml example block gains `mistral:`, `gemini:`, `xai:` subsections.
Auxiliary-provider enum now enumerates all real registry entries.
- reference/faq.md: stale AIAgent/config examples bumped from
`nous/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b` and `claude-sonnet-4.6` to
`claude-opus-4.7`.
### Docs-site integrity
- guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md referenced two nonexistent hooks
(`pre_api_request`, `post_api_request`). Replaced with the real
`on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset` entries.
- messaging/open-webui.md and features/api-server.md had pre-existing
broken links to `/docs/user-guide/features/profiles` (actual path is
`/docs/user-guide/profiles`). Fixed.
- reference/skills-catalog.md had one `<1%` literal that MDX parsed as a
JSX tag. Escaped to `<1%`.
### False positives filtered out (not changed, verified correct)
- `/set-home` is a registered alias of `/sethome` \u2014 docs were fine.
- `hermes setup gateway` is valid syntax (`hermes setup \<section\>`);
changed in qqbot.md for cross-doc consistency, not as a bug fix.
- Telegram reactions "disabled by default" matches code (default `"false"`).
- Matrix encryption "opt-in" matches code (empty env default \u2192 disabled).
- `pre_api_request` / `post_api_request` hooks do NOT exist in current code;
documented instead the real `on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset`.
- SIGNAL_IGNORE_STORIES is already in env-vars.md (subagent missed it).

- `ascii-guard lint docs` \u2014 124 files, 0 errors.

## Dynamic Toolsets
### MCP server toolsets
Each configured MCP server generates a `mcp-<server>` toolset at runtime. For example, if you configure a `github` MCP server, a `mcp-github` toolset is created containing all tools that server exposes.

### Plugin toolsets
Plugins can register their own toolsets via `ctx.register_tool()` during plugin initialization. These appear alongside built-in toolsets and can be enabled/disabled the same way.
### Custom toolsets
Define custom toolsets in `config.yaml` to create project-specific bundles:
```yaml
toolsets:
- hermes-cli
custom_toolsets:
data-science:
- file
- terminal
- code_execution
- web
- vision
```
### Wildcards
- `all` or `*` — expands to every registered toolset (built-in + dynamic + plugin)
## Relationship to `hermes tools`
The `hermes tools` command provides a curses-based UI for toggling individual tools on or off per platform. This operates at the tool level (finer than toolsets) and persists to `config.yaml` . Disabled tools are filtered out even if their toolset is enabled.
See also: [Tools Reference ](./tools-reference.md ) for the complete list of individual tools and their parameters.
