Unicode Ref
@unicode: context references that spell text out character by character for the model: @unicode:"text" attaches a table of every character of the quoted text (code point, Unicode name, category) with notes on what does not show on screen: invisible characters and their positions, text-direction controls, spaces other than the ordinary one, Unicode tag characters (decoded), words that mix Latin letters with lookalike Cyrillic, Greek or fullwidth ones, and private-use or unassigned code points; @unicode:U+200B describes up to 20 code points (name, category, UTF-8 bytes, decomposition); the TUI and Desktop composer suggest characters by name.
Good to know before installing
Reads only the text of the reference itself, using Python's unicodedata; no network, no files read or written, no subprocess, no credentials; register() only adds the @unicode: reference provider
From the plugin's catalog listing.
How to install
- Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
hermes plugins install unicode-ref - Said no? Turn it on later:
hermes plugins enable unicode-ref - 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).
