Board

A Miro-like board the agent draws with its own tools and you edit in a desktop pane, both sides working on one JSON document. board_apply builds a whole diagram in one call from ordered ops (nodes, edges, free lines, groups, notes, captions, layered auto-layout, bus trunks); board_render writes a PNG for chat or the interactive HTML editor; board_watch reports your own pane edits back to the agent. The pane docks beside the conversation with the same editor, saves your edits, and takes agent updates live.

Good to know before installing

Board_render shells out to a headless Chrome/Chromium already on PATH (nothing is downloaded; private temp profile, sandbox kept unless running as root) for PNG and self-test rendering; boards live in ~/.hermes/board/ shared across profiles (HERMES_BOARD_DIR / HERMES_BOARD_RENDER_DIR / HERMES_BOARD_WATCH override); serves /api/plugins/hermes-board/ on the plugin host; reads this profile's state.db read-only to find the session board_watch should wake; no external network calls and no stored credentials; board_watch's wake into a messaging chat additionally needs plugins.entries.hermes-board.allow_gateway_injection: true.

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.
    hermes plugins install hermes-board
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable hermes-board
  3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
