Breaking Changes

Issue #1

Manual `hermes curator run` is now synchronous. Previously, it required polling for results. Users will now see results directly without needing to poll.

Issue #2

Discord role-allowlists are now guild-scoped. This change addresses a cross-guild DM bypass vulnerability (CVSS 8.1). Existing configurations might need adjustment if they relied on cross-guild permissions.

Migration Steps

  1. 1
    Review and update Discord role-allowlist configurations if they relied on cross-guild permissions due to the new guild-scoped enforcement.

Release Summary

Hermes Agent v0.13.0 introduces a robust multi-agent Kanban system and the `/goal` command for persistent task focus. This release also includes significant security enhancements, improved state persistence with Checkpoints v2, and expanded platform and language support.
