A plugin whose import or register() never returns (an infinite loop, a blocking network call) held PluginManager.discover_and_load() forever, and with it every synchronous caller: `hermes chat`, gateway startup, ACP session/new (#108139). Each plugin's import + register() now runs under `plugins.load_timeout_seconds` (default 10, 0 disables, max 600) on a daemon worker. On overrun the plugin is recorded as failed with "load timed out after Ns" (same channel as every other load failure: startup WARNING, `/plugins`, `list_plugins()`), its pre-hang registrations are disposed, and discovery continues with the next plugin. The abandoned worker's later `ctx.register_*`/`subscribe`/`on_unload` calls are refused with a WARNING (the context is marked abandoned), so a late registration can never land in a registry the failure path already swept. Abandoned loaders are capped per process (8); past the cap further loads are refused with a named reason rather than run inline, which would recreate the hang (#98382 shape). Because the worker cannot own the caller's RLocks: the deferred-platform eager fallback now runs outside the replacement transaction, discovery re-entered from a loader worker returns on the already-set discovered flag instead of blocking on the sweep's lock, and such a worker never joins the background discovery thread that is waiting on it.
Website
This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.
Reading the docs on GitHub? The Markdown under
docs/is authored for the rendered site at https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/. Cross-page links are relative Markdown paths, so they follow through on GitHub's file viewer too. Every page on the site has an Edit this page link that opens the source file here.
Authoring links in docs/
- Link to another page with a relative Markdown path, anchors included:
[Profiles](../user-guide/profiles.md),[Bundles](../user-guide/features/skills.md#skill-bundles). Docusaurus turns the file path into the page route; GitHub follows the same path. Site routes (/user-guide/profiles,/docs/user-guide/profiles) only work on the rendered site — GitHub resolves them as repository paths and 404s, and the/docs/form also emits/docs/zh-Hans/docs/...404s in the zh-Hans build becausebaseUrlis already/docs/. python3 website/scripts/check_doc_links.pyfails on any route-style link in hand-authored pages (EN and the zh-Hans mirror);--fixrewrites them. It runs in theDocs Site Checksworkflow. Generated pages (user-guide/skills/{bundled,optional},reference/*skills-catalog.md) are produced byscripts/generate-skill-docs.py, which emits the same relative form.- Pin

Installation
yarn
Local Development
yarn start
This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.
Build
yarn build
This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.
Deployment
Using SSH:
USE_SSH=true yarn deploy
Not using SSH:
GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy
If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.
Diagram Linting
CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
