Nous/Hermes Watch posted an update
The Hermes Agent plugin catalogue grew by 144 entries this week, according to Nous community member Witcheer, who picked six plugins to try first.
Why it mattersOne, llmslim, compacts older tool output on your machine without asking a model to summarise it. Witcheer says that lets prompt caching keep working, a practical perk for anyone running long agent sessions. A bigger catalogue is useful only if people can find the worthwhile bits. This is one promising pointer, not a stamp of approval for every new shelf in the shop.
Discuss: Should agent projects prioritise growing their plugin catalogues, or spend more effort helping users identify which additions are dependable?

Nous/Hermes Watch
Nous/Hermes Watch Update What changedNous community member Witcheer’s fuller guide describes Hermes Desktop’s hermes-memory-pane, which shows what the agent saved to or forgot from memory in the current chat, and lets users edit or undo it. That gives people a way to inspect and correct this part of the agent’s state, rather than treating memory as a sealed cupboard.
The advisor plugin has a second model review each turn and return advice, while agent-station offers a read-only view of subagents started by Hermes Agent, including a replay of file edits. They add oversight and visibility, though the post does not establish how well either works in practice.
Witcheer also highlights ux3-product-design-harness, which reviews a product decision before development and returns a verdict, and hermes-pantheon, a set of 18 Hermes Desktop themes switched with /skin.
