The OpenCode Zen relay no longer serves hy3-free (since ~2026-08-31) or
laguna-s-2.1-free (new, verified 2026-09-09): both are gone from the live
GET /zen/v1/models catalog and anonymous chat completions return
401 {"type":"ModelError","message":"Model <id> is not supported"}
(2 probes >=60s apart, x-opencode-session header present).
- hermes_cli/models_catalog_static.py: remove both slugs from the
opencode-free offline floor and the opencode-zen discovery floor;
document the delist dates in the catalog comment.
- plugins/model-providers/opencode-free: default_aux_model moves from the
dead laguna-s-2.1-free to nemotron-3.5-lightning-free (fastest surviving
anonymous model).
- tests: swap fixtures off the dead slugs; extend the floor-exclusion
invariant to cover both.
The live revalidation path already hides them when the relay is reachable;
this fixes the OFFLINE floor and the aux default, which would otherwise
offer/route to models that 401.
Model Provider Plugins
Each subdirectory is a self-contained provider profile plugin. The
directory layout mirrors plugins/platforms/:
plugins/model-providers/
├── openrouter/
│ ├── __init__.py # registers the ProviderProfile
│ └── plugin.yaml # manifest: name, kind, version, description
├── anthropic/
│ ├── __init__.py
│ └── plugin.yaml
└── ...
How discovery works
providers/__init__.py._discover_providers() scans this directory (and
$HERMES_HOME/plugins/model-providers/) the first time anything calls
get_provider_profile() or list_providers(). Each __init__.py is
imported and expected to call providers.register_provider(profile).
User plugins at $HERMES_HOME/plugins/model-providers/<name>/ override
bundled plugins of the same name — last-writer-wins in
register_provider(). Drop a file there to replace a built-in.
Adding a new provider
-
Create
plugins/model-providers/<your_provider>/__init__.py:from providers import register_provider from providers.base import ProviderProfile my_provider = ProviderProfile( name="your-provider", aliases=("alias1", "alias2"), display_name="Your Provider", description="One-line description shown in the setup picker", signup_url="https://your-provider.example.com/keys", env_vars=("YOUR_PROVIDER_API_KEY", "YOUR_PROVIDER_BASE_URL"), base_url="https://api.your-provider.example.com/v1", default_aux_model="your-cheap-model", ) register_provider(my_provider) -
Create
plugins/model-providers/<your_provider>/plugin.yaml:name: your-provider-profile kind: model-provider version: 1.0.0 description: Short sentence about the provider author: Your Name
Nothing else needs to change. auth.py, config.py, models.py,
doctor.py, model_metadata.py, runtime_provider.py, and the
chat_completions transport all auto-wire from the registry.
Non-trivial profiles
Override the ProviderProfile hooks in a subclass for per-provider
quirks — see plugins/model-providers/openrouter/__init__.py for
build_extra_body and build_api_kwargs_extras examples, and
plugins/model-providers/gemini/__init__.py for thinking_config
translation.
