iMessage via Photon, and OpenClaw as a remote MCP server

Nous confirmed Hermes has iMessage and linked the Photon messaging guide. Separately, Nick Taylor (Pomerium) is speaking at MCP Dev Summit Toronto on 2026-10-05 on exposing OpenClaw as a remote MCP server with Pomerium as the MCP gateway. Talk is scheduled, not a shipped OpenClaw feature.

Why it matters

iMessage is the messaging gap people keep asking about. The MCP talk is the deployment pattern for putting a gateway on the network without leaving it open.

Official Agent Importers plugin: one-command migration into Hermes

Hermes Release Watch highlighted the official `hermes import-agent` plugin (Nous Research). It pulls CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md / Cursor rules, MCP servers, skills, and allow/deny command lists from Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or OpenClaw in one command. OpenClaw imports also carry persona, model, and messaging settings. It previews before applying and supports `--sync` for ongoing use of the source tools.
