Hermes Pets v0.6.2 Custom Pet Gallery Expansion

Date: 2026-06-04

Verdict

v0.6.2 expands the curated custom pet gallery with three Codex-created public-figure-inspired packages.

Release thesis

Keep the gallery useful by turning tested local Codex pets into repository-backed packages other operators can validate, preview, and install.

Codex-created pets -> local import test -> curated repo packages -> gallery docs and site previews

Scope completed

  • Added Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and Jeff Bezos as downloadable custom pet packages under docs/custom-pets/.
  • Preserved the Codex source metadata and real spritesheets for each package.
  • Added per-pet READMEs with validation commands and public-figure-inspired attribution notes.
  • Updated the gallery index and static site showcase so the public docs match the shipped package set.
  • Bumped package metadata from 0.6.1 to 0.6.2 for the gallery expansion release.

Validation evidence

Before packaging, each pet passed the local operator path:

  • hermes-pet custom-pet import-codex <path> --replace
  • hermes-pet custom-pet validate ~/.hermes_pet/custom-pets/<slug>
  • hermes-pet custom-pet preview --installed <slug>
  • hermes-pet custom-pet use <slug>
  • hermes-pet launch --replace
  • hermes-pet emit bubble "Testing custom pet: <slug>"
  • hermes-pet doctor returned ready after the overlay cycle

Out of scope

  • Hosted gallery
  • In-app package downloader
  • Automatic remote publishing
  • PyPI publishing
  • Windows installer publishing
  • New renderer or overlay behavior
