Cloud STT refused anything over a flat 25 MB with "File too large", and only CLI voice mode had a WAV-only chunker. Gateway voice notes, audio attachments and Desktop/TUI relays just failed. xAI (500 MB), Mistral (500 MB) and ElevenLabs (5 GB) were capped at 25 MB too. transcribe_audio now owns this for every surface. tools/transcription_chunking.py holds the vendor-documented per-provider byte caps plus OpenAI per-model duration caps that were measured live. gpt-4o-transcribe truncates at its 2,000-token output ceiling, so 1322 s of speech came back 203/260 complete, and it rejects more than 1400 s. whisper-1 at 2671 s outran the 60 s request timeout. An oversized input is re-encoded to the compact STT m4a first, which needs no seams. When it is still too large, it is cut at silences under the cap and the transcripts are joined in order. Hints (stt.prompt, pre_transcription hooks) resolve once per recording, not once per segment. The voice-mode-only WAV chunker is gone.
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
{#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.
