-# Hermes Agent v0.8.0 (v2026.4.8)
-
-**Release Date:** April 8, 2026
-
-> The intelligence release — background task auto-notifications, free MiMo v2 Pro on Nous Portal, live model switching across all platforms, self-optimized GPT/Codex guidance, native Google AI Studio, smart inactivity timeouts, approval buttons, MCP OAuth 2.1, and 209 merged PRs with 82 resolved issues.
-
----
-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Background Process Auto-Notifications (`notify_on_complete`)** — Background tasks can now automatically notify the agent when they finish. Start a long-running process (AI model training, test suites, deployments, builds) and the agent gets notified on completion — no polling needed. The agent can keep working on other things and pick up results when they land. ([#5779](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5779))
-
-- **Free Xiaomi MiMo v2 Pro on Nous Portal** — Nous Portal now supports the free-tier Xiaomi MiMo v2 Pro model for auxiliary tasks (compression, vision, summarization), with free-tier model gating and pricing display in model selection. ([#6018](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6018), [#5880](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5880))
-
-- **Live Model Switching (`/model` Command)** — Switch models and providers mid-session from CLI, Telegram, Discord, Slack, or any gateway platform. Aggregator-aware resolution keeps you on OpenRouter/Nous when possible, with automatic cross-provider fallback when needed. Interactive model pickers on Telegram and Discord with inline buttons. ([#5181](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5181), [#5742](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5742))
-
-- **Self-Optimized GPT/Codex Tool-Use Guidance** — The agent diagnosed and patched 5 failure modes in GPT and Codex tool calling through automated behavioral benchmarking, dramatically improving reliability on OpenAI models. Includes execution discipline guidance and thinking-only prefill continuation for structured reasoning. ([#6120](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6120), [#5414](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5414), [#5931](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5931))
-
-- **Google AI Studio (Gemini) Native Provider** — Direct access to Gemini models through Google's AI Studio API. Includes automatic models.dev registry integration for real-time context length detection across any provider. ([#5577](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5577))
-
-- **Inactivity-Based Agent Timeouts** — Gateway and cron timeouts now track actual tool activity instead of wall-clock time. Long-running tasks that are actively working will never be killed — only truly idle agents time out. ([#5389](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5389), [#5440](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5440))
-
-- **Approval Buttons on Slack & Telegram** — Dangerous command approval via native platform buttons instead of typing `/approve`. Slack gets thread context preservation; Telegram gets emoji reactions for approval status. ([#5890](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5890), [#5975](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5975))
-
-- **MCP OAuth 2.1 PKCE + OSV Malware Scanning** — Full standards-compliant OAuth for MCP server authentication, plus automatic malware scanning of MCP extension packages via the OSV vulnerability database. ([#5420](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5420), [#5305](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5305))
-
-- **Centralized Logging & Config Validation** — Structured logging to `~/.hermes/logs/` (agent.log + errors.log) with the `hermes logs` command for tailing and filtering. Config structure validation catches malformed YAML at startup before it causes cryptic failures. ([#5430](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5430), [#5426](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5426))
-
-- **Plugin System Expansion** — Plugins can now register CLI subcommands, receive request-scoped API hooks with correlation IDs, prompt for required env vars during install, and hook into session lifecycle events (finalize/reset). ([#5295](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5295), [#5427](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5427), [#5470](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5470), [#6129](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6129))
-
-- **Matrix Tier 1 & Platform Hardening** — Matrix gets reactions, read receipts, rich formatting, and room management. Discord adds channel controls and ignored channels. Signal gets full MEDIA: tag delivery. Mattermost gets file attachments. Comprehensive reliability fixes across all platforms. ([#5275](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5275), [#5975](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5975), [#5602](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5602))
-
-- **Security Hardening Pass** — Consolidated SSRF protections, timing attack mitigations, tar traversal prevention, credential leakage guards, cron path traversal hardening, and cross-session isolation. Terminal workdir sanitization across all backends. ([#5944](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5944), [#5613](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5613), [#5629](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5629))

-    Naming note — two distinct concepts, easily confused:
-      max_tokens     = OUTPUT token cap for a single response.
-                       Anthropic's API calls this "max_tokens" but it only
-                       limits the *output*.  Anthropic's own native SDK
-                       renamed it "max_output_tokens" for clarity.
-      context_length = TOTAL context window (input tokens + output tokens).
-                       The API enforces: input_tokens + max_tokens ≤ context_length.
-                       Stored on the ContextCompressor; reduced on overflow errors.
-
-    When *max_tokens* is None the model's native output ceiling is used
-    (e.g. 128K for Opus 4.6, 64K for Sonnet 4.6).
-
-    When *context_length* is provided and the model's native output ceiling
-    exceeds it (e.g. a local endpoint with an 8K window), the output cap is
-    clamped to context_length − 1.  This only kicks in for unusually small
-    context windows; for full-size models the native output cap is always
-    smaller than the context window so no clamping happens.
-    NOTE: this clamping does not account for prompt size — if the prompt is
-    large, Anthropic may still reject the request.  The caller must detect
-    "max_tokens too large given prompt" errors and retry with a smaller cap
-    (see parse_available_output_tokens_from_error + _ephemeral_max_output_tokens).
+    When *max_tokens* is None, the model's native output limit is used
+    (e.g. 128K for Opus 4.6, 64K for Sonnet 4.6).  If *context_length*
+    is provided, the effective limit is clamped so it doesn't exceed
+    the context window.
 
     When *is_oauth* is True, applies Claude Code compatibility transforms:
     system prompt prefix, tool name prefixing, and prompt sanitization.
 
     When *preserve_dots* is True, model name dots are not converted to hyphens
     (for Alibaba/DashScope anthropic-compatible endpoints: qwen3.5-plus).
-
-    When *base_url* points to a third-party Anthropic-compatible endpoint,
-    thinking block signatures are stripped (they are Anthropic-proprietary).
-
-    When *fast_mode* is True, adds ``speed: "fast"`` and the fast-mode beta
-    header for ~2.5x faster output throughput on Opus 4.6.  Currently only
-    supported on native Anthropic endpoints (not third-party compatible ones).

-"""Abstract base class for pluggable context engines.
-
-A context engine controls how conversation context is managed when
-approaching the model's token limit. The built-in ContextCompressor
-is the default implementation. Third-party engines (e.g. LCM) can
-replace it via the plugin system or by being placed in the
-``plugins/context_engine/<name>/`` directory.
-
-Selection is config-driven: ``context.engine`` in config.yaml.
-Default is ``"compressor"`` (the built-in). Only one engine is active.
-
-The engine is responsible for:
-  - Deciding when compaction should fire
-  - Performing compaction (summarization, DAG construction, etc.)
-  - Optionally exposing tools the agent can call (e.g. lcm_grep)
-  - Tracking token usage from API responses
-
-Lifecycle:
-  1. Engine is instantiated and registered (plugin register() or default)
-  2. on_session_start() called when a conversation begins
-  3. update_from_response() called after each API response with usage data
-  4. should_compress() checked after each turn
-  5. compress() called when should_compress() returns True
-  6. on_session_end() called at real session boundaries (CLI exit, /reset,
-     gateway session expiry) — NOT per-turn

-Session-scoped context variables for the Hermes gateway.
-
-Replaces the previous ``os.environ``-based session state
-(``HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM``, ``HERMES_SESSION_CHAT_ID``, etc.) with
-Python's ``contextvars.ContextVar``.
-
-**Why this matters**
-
-The gateway processes messages concurrently via ``asyncio``.  When two
-messages arrive at the same time the old code did:
-
-    os.environ["HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID"] = str(context.source.thread_id)
-
-Because ``os.environ`` is *process-global*, Message A's value was
-silently overwritten by Message B before Message A's agent finished
-running.  Background-task notifications and tool calls therefore routed
-to the wrong thread.
-
-``contextvars.ContextVar`` values are *task-local*: each ``asyncio``
-task (and any ``run_in_executor`` thread it spawns) gets its own copy,
-so concurrent messages never interfere.
-
-**Backward compatibility**
-
-The public helper ``get_session_env(name, default="")`` mirrors the old
-``os.getenv("HERMES_SESSION_*", ...)`` calls.  Existing tool code only
-needs to replace the import + call site:
-
-    # before
-    import os
-    platform = os.getenv("HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM", "")

-    # after
