docs(hermes-agent): HERMES_AGENT_ONLY_SWARM_STATUS_2026-05-09.md - #156
Conversation
Final synthesis for the HERMES-AGENT-ONLY 20-Agent Fix Swarm.
Executive verdict: v0.13 deferral PARTIALLY LIFTED.
- Wave A2 confirmed `pip install -e .` SUCCEEDS on Windows for v2026.5.7
- Wave A3 confirmed 330/375 module imports OK
- Both critical security/feature changes confirmed live (redaction
default-ON via PR #21193; 10 MCP tools intact)
- Only 2 Windows blockers exist upstream (1 by-design, 1 fixable by
1-line upstream guard)
Wave 1's prior verdict ("KEEP DEFERRED — last 100 main runs all red")
was a query artifact. Wave A1 re-grouped by workflow_id=242054771 and
found 39/100 main Tests runs green across 7 distinct main SHAs.
Stop-condition met: PR #155 ships the env-switch infrastructure
(combined Wave A4 + A5 brief) so Hermes3D OS can consume v0.13 canary
safely without touching production. Waves B/C/D NOT launched per swarm
rule "stop launching when fix found."

Code Review
This pull request adds a comprehensive status report documenting the progress of the Hermes-Agent-Only swarm, specifically regarding the integration of Hermes Agent v0.13. The document details the partial lifting of the v0.13 deferral, successful Windows installation tests, and identified blockers related to TUI and PTY components on Windows. Feedback was provided to refine the version comparison heuristic in the documentation to avoid potential lexicographical sorting issues with date-based version strings.

The version comparison heuristic > v2026.5.7 relies on lexicographical string comparison, which will fail for versions like v2026.5.10 because "1" (from .10) is lexicographically smaller than "7". Since these appear to be date-based versions, consider using a more descriptive comparison or ensuring zero-padding (e.g., v2026.5.07) to ensure the heuristic correctly identifies newer releases as the day/month numbers increase.

| 1. gh api repos/NousResearch/hermes-agent/tags --jq '.[0].name' returns a version newer than v2026.5.7 (e.g. v2026.5.8+) |
