Hermes Jailbreak Kernel

Jailbreak-kernel plugin for Hermes Agent (ported from dsh-infinite-gen-4): session-scoped modes (off/slim/on/full) with kernel profiles (core/research/creative/max), session-aware system-prompt sections, llm_request request-layer system rebuild, and opencode session rotation, removing model refusals. Ships a /jailbreak command, a progressive-disclosure ops skill, and a 276-check offline self-test.

Good to know before installing

Llm_request middleware that, by default (`on`/`full` modes), replaces the system prompt on every request with a refusal-removal ("jailbreak") kernel plus only the memory and runtime-environment sections (agent rules, skills index, context files and other plugins' sections are dropped); `slim` appends it instead, and `off` passes requests through but strips all plugin prompt sections, including other plugins'. Rotates the x-opencode-session header on opencode routes. Writes a diagnostic dump per session (full system prompt incl. memory/persona text, plus the first 200 chars of every other message and the model/provider/base_url) to its own plugin dir (dumps/); `/jailbreak dump off` or `HERMES_JAILBREAK_DUMP=0` turns it off. No network, no exec.

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-jailbreak-kernel
  2. Said no? Turn it on later:
    hermes plugins enable hermes-jailbreak-kernel
  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).
