Changelog

All notable changes to Hermes Workspace are documented here. The format is based on Keep a Changelog.

[Unreleased]

Changed

• docker compose up now pulls pre-built images by default (#82) — nousresearch/hermes-agent:latest for the gateway and ghcr.io/outsourc-e/hermes-workspace:latest for the UI. Agent state persists in the claude-data named volume. Adds docker-compose.dev.yml overlay for building from source.

[2.0.0] — 2026-04-20

Zero-fork release. Clone, don't fork. Hermes Workspace now runs on vanilla pip install hermes-agent with no patches, no drift, no custom gateway required.

Added

• Zero-fork architecture — dual gateway/dashboard routing; workspace talks directly to vanilla hermes-agent 0.10.0+ via standard endpoints (/v1/models, /api/sessions, /api/skills, /api/config, /api/jobs)
• One-liner curl installer — curl -fsSL … | bash provisions workspace + gateway + defaults
• Claude-Nous theme — dark + light editorial variants with cobalt/paper surface pass, thin 1px architectural borders, editorial type accents
• Conductor (/conductor) — mission-control surface ported from Clawsuite; spawn missions, assign workers, watch live output and costs
• Operations (/operations) — agent registry / sessions manager ported from Clawsuite; pause, steer, kill live agents with role and model insight
• Synthesized tool pills — inline tool-call rendering from dashboard stream markers when running against zero-fork gateway
• Landing parity pass — hero, features, screenshots, setup, OG image, mobile theme toggle
• Task board status vs. assignee decoupling
• Local-model chat session persistence — local sessions appear in history + session list
• Memory is local-fs first — honors HERMES_HOME, no gateway dependency
• Splash + screenshots refresh — Conductor, Dashboard, Tasks, Jobs captured in new editorial theme

Changed

• Model picker — fetches from gateway (~/.hermes/models.json for user-configured models), matches OCPlatform behavior; shows only configured providers instead of all upstream
• enhanced-fork mode label no longer implies a fork is required; it indicates streaming route availability on vanilla gateway
• Dashboard + enhanced-chat capabilities marked optional; missing endpoints no longer trigger warnings
• Feature-gate + install copy — all fork-era references purged
• Theme family allowlist — claude-nous promoted to the enterprise allowlist
• Session pill — solid dark-mode background, matches model selector

Fixed

• Duplicate responses and disappearing history on interrupt (#62)
• Portable-mode double user message, uncleaned timeouts, orphaned unregister callbacks
• Local model selection actually propagates to chat (no silent fallback)
• Strip provider prefix correctly for local routing
• Dashboard token injection on / (not /index.html)
• Onboarding no longer stacks behind workspace shell
• Root bootstrap guards against uncaught errors
• Preserve assistant text during tool-call streaming
• Installer output uses defined escape vars (removed undefined BOLD/RESET)

Removed

• All references to the legacy "enhanced fork" as a requirement
• Stale fork-era gateway instructions and feature-gate copy

Initial public release. Chat, files, memory, skills, terminal, dashboard, settings — the foundational workspace.
