inspecting-hermes-desktop-dom — Read the live Hermes desktop DOM/CSS over CDP.
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
# Inspecting the live Hermes desktop DOM
## Overview
When you are developing `apps/desktop` and the user is running that same app
(`hgui` / `npm run dev`), you can read the **live rendered DOM** of the window
they are looking at — computed styles, geometry, which CSS rule actually won,
console output — instead of inferring it from `.tsx` and being wrong.
Dev-server runs open a Chrome DevTools Protocol port on `127.0.0.1:9222`
automatically. The renderer is a Chromium page, so everything DevTools can read,
a script can read.
**This does not replace looking at it.** CDP answers *factual* questions ("what
is the computed padding", "did this element render", "which selector matches").
It cannot tell you whether the result looks good. Colour balance, spacing feel,
and "is this ugly" still need the user's eyes or a screenshot. Answer facts with
CDP; hand aesthetics to the user.
## When to Use
- Verifying a UI change actually took effect in the running app
- "Why is this element still X?" — find the winning rule before editing anything
- Locating a stable selector for a component you're about to change
- Checking a design token's computed value on a real node

How to install
mdr add atlasomnia/hermes-custom-pack/inspecting-hermes-desktop-dom@sha256:a8df81a0c20e535bThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
