v0.2.0 — LSP code intelligence
v0.2.0 — LSP code intelligence
Hermes now actively uses a Language Server Protocol layer during coding, not just exposes tools.
LSP intelligence layer
- 5 agent tools:
lsp_diagnostics,lsp_definition,lsp_references,lsp_hover,lsp_symbols - LspManager lifecycle: lazy server spawn (one per language, kept alive for the session), crash detection → single restart → clean fallback (never an infinite retry loop), graceful shutdown with full process-tree cleanup on Windows
- Configuration:
.hermes/lsp.jsonoverrides/extends the built-in registry (typescript, python, go, rust, c/cpp, java, csharp, css) - Pull + push diagnostics with 1-based
[ERROR] file:line:col — code messagerendering - Optional by design: when a server is unavailable or unsupported, Hermes falls back to
search_files/read_file— LSP failure never fails a task
Hermes uses LSP during coding
- Automatic post-edit diagnostics gate: after every successful
write_file/apply_edit, diagnostics for the touched files are surfaced to the model before the evidence gate - Task-type → investigation strategy: the goal is classified (bug-fix / refactor / test-failure / explore / feature) and a proven LSP-first investigation sequence is injected at intake
- Prompt guidance: when to prefer LSP over blind text search, and the rule that "No diagnostics" is fast feedback — never a substitute for the real test/typecheck/build commands
Reliability
- 284 tests (up from 41 at the last release), including deterministic fake-LSP-server integration tests for lifecycle, kill-recovery, crash-once-restart-once, and fallback paths
- Windows spawn hardening: real executables spawn directly (no shell), only
.cmd/.batshims use a shell;taskkill /T /Ftree cleanup
