Lists Diet meetings and returns a short speech excerpt, with kokkai_search, kokkai_speech, and kokkai_watch.

## Good to know before installing

Talks only to kokkai.ndl.go.jp over HTTPS GET with no API key. kokkai_search returns meeting metadata and the official meeting URL, and does not return speech text. kokkai_speech reads /api/speech and returns at most 10 excerpts, each at most 240 characters, with the speaker, the meeting name, the date, and the speech URL. Those excerpts are not written to plugin-data. The tools are on for every surface, including gateways: anyone you allow on your Hermes gateway, and a guest in a room with an empty allowlist, can search, read a speech excerpt, add a watch, and approve it. Turn a surface off with hermes tools. kokkai_watch add creates one cron job that runs a model turn once a day, at the hour you pick in Hermes's own timezone, with no daily cap.

## 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 jp-kokkai
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable jp-kokkai
```

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
