Hermes Dashboard plugins get build guide
A new video walkthrough shows how to build Hermes Dashboard plugins, covering the extensibility model, plugin manifest, SDK, and optional backend routes. The docs frame plugins as drop-in tabs for the web dashboard, so developers can extend Hermes without forking the core app.
// ANALYSIS
This is a practical tutorial more than a splashy launch, but it matters because it turns Hermes from a runnable agent into a customizable platform.
- –Hermes plugins are lightweight: a manifest plus a prebuilt JS bundle, with optional CSS and FastAPI routes
- –The dashboard SDK exposes React, UI primitives, and Hermes API helpers, which lowers the barrier to building useful extensions
- –The architecture supports custom tabs and backend endpoints without touching dashboard source, which is the real unlock for community ecosystem growth
- –The feature fits Hermes’ broader push toward modularity and self-hosted extensibility rather than a closed agent experience
- –For power users, this is the kind of surface area that makes a framework stick: once people can add their own tools, they start building around it
