AniList tracker for Hermes Desktop — airing countdowns, a season browser, a local or account-backed watchlist, episode alerts and a daily digest, plus agent tools that read your own list and answer about a single show.

## Good to know before installing

Stores your pasted AniList token in the active profile .env (sent only to graphql.anilist.co); alerts and the daily digest are Hermes cron jobs it creates on the host you pick, and the digest job asks that host's agent to query the public AniList API itself.

From the plugin's catalog listing.

## How to install

1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.

```bash
hermes plugins install hermes-anilist
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable hermes-anilist
```

3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see the official page. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/plugins
