Step through Hermes Desktop sidebar sessions in on-screen order with Ctrl+Cmd+] / Ctrl+Cmd+[ (rebindable), wrapping at both ends. SDK-only: session-row slot markers for order, host.state for the focused session, host.openSession for navigation.

## 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 sidebar-cycle
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable sidebar-cycle
```

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
