TinyFish: the web, built into Hermes. Free Search and Fetch power Hermes's own web_search and web_extract, and when a site needs clicks, forms or a login, a remote browser and the tinyfish_agent web agent handle it.

## Good to know before installing

Sends search queries, URLs to fetch and tinyfish_agent goals with your TINYFISH_API_KEY to the TinyFish API (*.tinyfish.ai). Browser sessions and tinyfish_agent runs spend TinyFish credits. Under the default `request` policy each one goes through Hermes's approval prompt first (a session/always answer covers every later call; cron and unattended runs are denied unless you allow them). Setting `tinyfish.credit_policy.<feature>: allow` or YOLO skips the prompt. `hermes tinyfish setup` / `browser enable` (run by you) save the key to Hermes .env, set web.search_backend/extract_backend and browser.cloud_provider in config.yaml, enable the web/browser toolsets, and can install the agent-browser CLI after asking.

From the plugin's catalog listing.

## How to install

1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs (this one needs `TINYFISH_API_KEY`), then asks whether to turn it on.

```bash
hermes plugins install tinyfish
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable tinyfish
```

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
