PLUGINS

# What a bot is allowed to touch.

A plugin is a connection a bot can be given: a calendar, a repository, a machine of your own. You install it, you approve it once, then you choose which bots may use it — one bot at a time, never all of them by default.

Everything below is being built. Nothing here is downloadable yet, and the list will change as we find out what people actually connect. [Join the list](/#waitlist) to hear when the first ones ship.

-

### Your machine

In development

Hermes runs on hardware you own. Pair the machine once, then choose which bots may reach it. Nothing leaves the machine unless a bot you allowed asks for it.

-

### Managed environment

Planned

A private Linux environment we keep running for you, with persistent files, a maintained Hermes and an included AI allowance. For people who want the bots without the machine.

-

### Calendar

In development

Reads the events a bot needs to plan around. Writing to your calendar is a separate permission you grant on its own.

-

### Notes

In development

Reads and writes the notes a bot is allowed to touch, so a plan it wrote has somewhere to live.

-

### Files

In development

Attachments and documents shared in a conversation, available to the bots in that conversation and no others.

-

### Repositories

In development

Reads branches and files from a repository you connect, so a bot can answer questions about code that already exists.

-

### Web reading

In development

Fetches pages you allow and keeps the source beside every finding, so you can check the work rather than trust it.

-

### Computer viewing and control

In development

Watch a bot work on a screen, or take over. Authorised separately from every other permission, and never implied by one.

-

### Boards and notes

Planned

Native boards and notes inside the workspace rather than another tab to keep open.

How access works. A connection belongs to you, not to a bot. Granting one bot the calendar does not grant it to the others, and removing a plugin removes it everywhere at once. Reading private conversations is never part of a plugin.

## Suggest a plugin

Tell us what you would connect, and why. We read every suggestion. Nothing appears on this page without a read-through first.

Form endpoint: /api/suggest

What should we connect?

The name of the service, tool or device.

Link (optional)

Documentation, an API, or anything that explains it.

What would a bot do with it?

Up to 1,000 characters. What it should read, and what it should be allowed to change.
