"""Hermes Plugin System — discovers, loads, and manages plugins.

Sources, later overriding earlier on key collision: bundled ``<repo>/plugins/<name>/`` (``memory/``
and ``context_engine/`` have their own discovery), user ``~/.hermes/plugins/<name>/``, project
``./.hermes/plugins/<name>/`` (opt-in via ``HERMES_ENABLE_PROJECT_PLUGINS``), and pip packages in
the ``hermes_agent.plugins`` entry-point group. A directory plugin needs a ``plugin.yaml`` manifest
and an ``__init__.py`` exposing ``register(ctx)``. Plugins register callbacks for ``VALID_HOOKS``
(core fires ``invoke_hook(name, **kwargs)``) and tools via ``PluginContext.register_tool()``.
