A Pinned tab in the Desktop sidebar that files your pinned chats into nested folders: drag to order and nest, folder colors, right-click menus (including Unpin), unread/working badges on collapsed folders, a filter box, open-folder-as-tabs, and layout export/import via the clipboard. Layout stays local to the app; pins belong to the backend. SDK-only build (desktop/plugin.js); no network.

## 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 pinned-folders
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable pinned-folders
```

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
