Ports Claude Code's /loop (and its /proactive alias) across every Hermes
surface. /loop [interval] <prompt> re-runs a prompt or slash command on a
recurring cadence inside the live session; omitting the interval enables
self-paced mode (starts at the floor, backs off exponentially while the
agent's replies stop changing, snaps back on change — local digest
comparison, zero extra LLM cost).
Stop conditions: agent-emitted LOOP_COMPLETE marker, --times N,
--until <condition> (judged by the existing goal_judge aux task,
fail-open), /loop stop, and a loops.max_ticks backstop budget.
Core: hermes_cli/loops.py (LoopState + LoopManager + shared
dispatch_loop_command), persisted per session in SessionDB state_meta
(loop:<sid>) so /resume picks it up; migrates across compression
boundaries like /goal. New SessionDB.list_meta_prefix() powers the
gateway's cross-session scan.
Surfaces:
- CLI: /loop handler + idle-fire and post-turn-complete hooks in
process_loop (mirrors the /goal hook shape; Ctrl+C pauses the loop)
- Gateway: /loop handler with route capture, mid-run control-verb guard,
post-turn tick completion, and a supervised loop_wakeup_watcher that
injects due wakeups into idle chats via the synthetic-message path
- TUI/dashboard/desktop: command.dispatch handler + per-session
notification-poller wakeup driver + post-turn completion in the turn
dispatcher; /loop added to the desktop slash palette
- /goal mixing: an active non-parked goal owns the idle boundary — loop
ticks defer until it finishes, pauses, or parks; real user input always
wins over both
Config: loops.{min_interval_seconds,max_ticks,self_paced_floor_seconds,
self_paced_ceiling_seconds}. Docs page + sidebar entry. 77 new tests.
Slack's 50-slash cap: /version moves to /hermes version to free the
native slot for /loop.
Website
This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.
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.
