Use when building a control surface (page, dashboard, buttons) that wakes a hermes bot over a webhook subscription, when notifying a channel from a script or cron job, or when wiring bot-to-bot work across machines with peer gateways. Hermes-native replacement for upstream make-bot-ui.
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
# Hermes bot UI Build a page the user clicks. A small server on this computer POSTs signed JSON to a hermes webhook route. The gateway wakes the agent with that JSON. Keep the HMAC secret on the server. Do not put the secret in the browser, in chat, or in this skill. ## Create the webhook subscription Check `hermes webhook subscribe --help` first; the flag set is versioned. ``` hermes webhook subscribe \ --description "Accept control-page button clicks" \ --skills <skill-one,skill-two> \ --deliver telegram --deliver-chat-id <chat-id> ``` The declarative alternative lives in the gateway config under `platforms.webhook.extra.routes`. Each route defines `events`, `secret` (required), `prompt` (template rendered from the payload), `skills`, `deliver`, `deliver_extra`, and `deliver_only`. Set `deliver_only: true` for pure push notifications (monitoring alerts, inter-agent pings): the rendered prompt IS the delivered message, zero LLM cost. ## Route URL and secret - `hermes webhook list` prints the subscriptions. Read the route URL from it; do not guess it. The gateway serves `POST /webhooks/<route-name>`; …

How to install
mdr add iap/pstack-hermes/hermesbot@sha256:8369d8a7e7d63451The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.f7c5841, 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.
