The agentic rag, wrung out.

New Hermes Desktop plugin “Jot” keeps checklists and plans as notes next to the chat. The agent can tick items off or add new ones when asked. Aimed at people who currently bounce between the agent and a separate notes app.
Small but high-utility surface. Reduces context switching for anyone who works in lists.

Tokenjuice landed in the Hermes plugin catalog. It compresses successful terminal output (e.g., a 700-line `ls` dropped from 44k characters to 774; `git status` from 670 to 223) while leaving failed commands untouched so full errors still reach the model. Runs fully locally; nothing is sent over the network. Requires Hermes ≥ 0.22.5. Install via the catalog or npm + `hermes plugins install`.
