Handles inbound messages tagged <channel source=...> from Claude Code Channels, routing replies, task work, approvals, and operator controls with session context.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Channel Responder
When a message arrives via a channel:
## Commands
- `observations-observe`: `bun ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/observations.ts observe .hermit`
- `proposal-index`: `bun ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/proposal.ts index .hermit`
- `proposal-micro`: `bun ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/proposal.ts micro .hermit`
- `routines-health`: `bun ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/routines.ts health .hermit`
- `settings-get-routines`: `bun ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/settings-edit.ts .hermit/config.json get routines`
## 0. Reply via the channel
Every response to `<channel source="..." chat_id="..." ...>` must use the channel's reply tool, including acknowledgements. Terminal narration is secondary and invisible to the operator.

How to install
mdr add gtapps/hermitd/channel-responder@sha256:a77696cf914f6c21The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.0b74ef8, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
