rtk-hermes v1.2.0

This release hardens rtk-hermes as a production Hermes plugin while keeping the core behavior conservative: rewrite terminal commands through RTK before execution, fail open, and avoid post-tool output mutation.

Added

  • Runtime config through environment variables:
    • RTK_HERMES_MODE=rewrite|suggest|off
    • RTK_HERMES_TIMEOUT_MS=<milliseconds>
    • RTK_HERMES_PREVIEW_MARKER=true|false
  • Visible RTK preview marker: rewritten commands default to : RTK && <rewritten-command> so Hermes tool previews make RTK activity obvious.
  • /rtk slash command support when the active Hermes version supports plugin command registration:
    • /rtk status
    • /rtk stats
    • /rtk reset-stats
    • /rtk config
  • Process-local metrics for attempts, applied rewrites, suggestions, no-equivalent decisions, denies, timeouts, errors and unexpected exit codes.
  • CI for Python 3.9 through 3.13 plus package build validation.
  • CHANGELOG.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, SECURITY.md, and MANIFEST.in.

Changed

  • Documentation now uses the GitHub release wheel as the primary install path until PyPI is updated beyond 1.0.0.
  • The plugin skips commands that are already rtk ... or already marked with : RTK &&.
  • Metrics no longer store raw commands.
  • Warnings do not include raw command strings or raw RTK stderr, reducing the chance of leaking secrets into persistent Hermes logs.
  • The /rtk status command is registered even if RTK is not currently in PATH, so users can diagnose missing RTK from inside Hermes.

Not included by design

This release does not add transform_terminal_output or transform_tool_result compaction. Those hooks can save tokens, but they can also hide debugging evidence or alter structured tool results. If added later, they should be explicit opt-in behavior with dedicated tests.

Verification

  • Local tests: 50 passed
  • Local build: python -m build succeeded
  • Distribution check: twine check dist/* passed
  • GitHub Actions CI passed on Python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 and 3.13
  • Hermes entry point verified as rtk-rewrite rtk_hermes 1.2.0 True
