Hermes 0.22.0 launches an onboarding chat that configures name, theme, layout, app connections and suggests tasks on first desktop start. New Connectors page lets Hermes operate inside Gmail, Linear, Notion and other apps after a one-time browser sign-in, with multi-account support. Users can run open-source local models with one click; Hermes installs llama.cpp builds and offers several high-quality GGUF models. The desktop app now ships as signed MSIX and notarized macOS packages and includes a unified package manager for tool updates. A curated catalog of 600 reviewed plugins is accessible from the desktop or CLI, searchable by category and author.

Version 0.22.1 expands the plugin catalog with the new Teamorouter and OpenInvest providers. The platform now exposes a verified canonical ACP editor MCP attachment for more reliable model configuration. Live clarification controls are synchronized across all attached viewers, letting users edit and see changes in real time.
