Hermes Agent Major Update — v0.9.0 "The Everywhere Release"
We now support accessing the brand-new Web Dashboard for deployed Hermes Agents.
This is the biggest change in this release. You can now manage your Agent directly from the browser — no more touching config files or the terminal.
Web Dashboard
The Dashboard includes the following pages:
Status — Live overview of Agent runtime, Gateway connections, and active session count
Config — Form-based editor for all 150+ settings (model, tools, approval mode, etc.) — saves instantly
API Keys — Visual management of all API keys: set, update, or delete without manually editing .env
Sessions — Browse full conversation history with full-text search, platform/model filtering, and syntax-highlighted messages
Logs — Real-time Agent logs with level and component filtering, plus auto-refresh
Analytics — Token usage, daily cost breakdown, and per-model usage statistics
Cron — Create and manage scheduled tasks for your Agent to run automatically
Skills — Browse, search, and toggle skills and toolsets on or off
Access it the same way as before: go to your Agent management page and click "Open Dashboard".
Fast Mode
Use the /fast command to enable priority processing for OpenAI and Anthropic models — significantly lower latency on GPT-5.4, Codex, Claude, and more. Just send /fast in any conversation to toggle it.
Background Process Monitoring
New watch_patterns feature. Set keyword patterns to monitor background process output and get notified in real-time when they match — watch for errors, wait for specific events ("listening on port"), or follow build logs without polling.
Backup & Restore
New hermes backup and hermes import commands. Create full snapshots of your config, sessions, skills, and memory. Migrate between environments or save a checkpoint before major changes.
More Platforms
Hermes now supports 16 messaging platforms, with new additions:
iMessage (via BlueBubbles)
WeChat / WeCom
Debugging Tools
/debug — Quick diagnostics on any platform
hermes debug share — Upload a full debug report in one command for easy troubleshooting
Security Hardening
This release includes 16 security fixes covering path traversal protection, shell injection neutralization, SSRF redirect defense, webhook signature validation, and more.
How to Get the New Features
You need to reset your Agent for the update to take effect. The new Web Dashboard requires the v2 image, and currently running containers are still on the old image.
Steps: Go to your Agent management page → Click "Reset Agent" → Wait for the container to rebuild → Dashboard is ready.
Resetting will not affect your Telegram Bot configuration or conversation history — they are stored in persistent storage.
