# Hermes Dashboard

Real-time monitoring dashboard and auto-generated wiki for [Hermes Agent](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent).

Plug it into any Hermes installation. It reads your skills, plugins, config, memory, and soul -- and displays everything as a searchable wiki. The live dashboard shows agent sessions, tool calls, and activity as they happen.

## Install

```bash
git clone https://github.com/Kori-x/hermes-dashboard.git
cd hermes-dashboard
./install.sh
```

This installs the Hermes plugin, npm dependencies, and builds the dashboard.

## Usage

Start the dashboard:

```bash
npm run dev
```

Open **http://localhost:5173**.

The plugin auto-registers with Hermes on next session start. Agent events stream to the dashboard in real-time.

## What you get

### Dashboard (live)
- Agent session monitoring with phase tracking (processing, idle, awaiting input, needs approval)
- Activity feed of tool calls, messages, and approvals across all sessions
- Per-session detail: context window visualization, tool execution history, subagent tracking
- Session timeline and tool usage breakdown

### Wiki (auto-generated)
- **Skills** -- all your installed skills parsed from `~/.hermes/skills/`, searchable by name/category
- **Plugins** -- installed plugins with manifest data from `~/.hermes/plugins/`
- **Tools** -- complete built-in tool reference (56 tools across 10 categories)
- **CLI** -- command reference with flags
- **Config** -- your `config.yaml` rendered live
- **Memory** -- agent memory (MEMORY.md) and user profile (USER.md)
- **Soul** -- agent persona (SOUL.md)
- **Architecture** -- core loop, provider resolution, memory system, safety, plugin hooks, gateway
- **Changelog** -- version history

When the server is running, the wiki reads live from your `~/.hermes/`. When offline, it falls back to built-in reference data.
