teknium1 88eb76f02e fix(metrics): startup latency counts once per client launch, never after an in-place exec
- m9: shared_metrics.startup_latency had no server-side latch, so any repeat
  call added a row. The TUI and Desktop now send an opaque per-launch id
  (TUI: one per process; Desktop: minted when the once-per-launch main-process
  claim succeeds) and the backend claims (surface, launch_id) once per
  process: a reconnect re-sending the same launch counts once, a new Desktop
  launch against a long-lived backend still counts. Legacy clients without an
  id count once per backend process and surface. The id is only a local latch
  key (bounded set, length-capped), never recorded. Only a usable measurement
  spends the claim. Contract + apps/shared regenerated.
- m10: relaunch() execs in place, keeping the PID, so `sessions browse` ->
  resume counted the picker time as CLI startup. relaunch() stamps its PID in
  HERMES_RELAUNCHED_PID right before exec; process-start surfaces skip when it
  matches, while children (other PIDs) inheriting the env still count.
- m8 (psutil half): record_process_ready checks the opt-in gate before reading
  the process start time (psutil) or starting a thread. The claim is taken
  first so a later opt-in never records a stale "startup" mid-session.

Test changes to existing assertions: the TUI/Desktop param assertions now
expect launch_id (a new wire param); the RPC surface test sends distinct
launch ids so its three calls stay three launches under the new latch.

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.

  • 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 because baseUrl is already /docs/.
  • python3 website/scripts/check_doc_links.py fails on any route-style link in hand-authored pages (EN and the zh-Hans mirror); --fix rewrites them. It runs in the Docs Site Checks workflow. Generated pages (user-guide/skills/{bundled,optional}, reference/*skills-catalog.md) are produced by scripts/generate-skill-docs.py, which emits the same relative form.
  • Pin {#anchor} on cross-linked headings so the zh-Hans mirror keeps the same id.

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.
