Hermes Runtime Plugin
Status: Experimental placeholder runtime (current behavior)
Provides a Hermes runtime plugin for Fusion. The plugin is active today for runtime registration/discovery and runtime selection via runtimeConfig.runtimeHint: "hermes".
What it does today
- Registers Hermes runtime metadata with the plugin system
- Exposes a runtime factory that returns a placeholder runtime object
- Emits
hermes-runtime:loadedon plugin load - Supports runtime routing with
runtimeHint: "hermes"
Current behavior and limitations
This plugin currently provides registration + placeholder execution semantics.
- Runtime factory returns an object with:
runtimeId: "hermes"version: "0.1.0"status: "deferred"messagedescribing placeholder/deferred statusexecute()function
- Calling
execute()always throws a not-implemented error. - Runtime creation itself does not throw.
Expected execution failure message includes:
Hermes runtime is not yet implemented. Full implementation deferred to FN-2264. See https://github.com/gsxdsm/fusion/issues/FN-2264
Installation
Option 1: Copy to plugins directory
cp -r fusion-plugin-hermes-runtime ~/.fusion/plugins/
Option 2: Install via CLI
fn plugin add ./plugins/fusion-plugin-hermes-runtime
Runtime routing (runtimeHint)
To route an agent to Hermes, set runtimeConfig.runtimeHint to "hermes":
{
"name": "Hermes Executor",
"role": "executor",
"runtimeConfig": {
"runtimeHint": "hermes"
}
}
⚠️ With the current placeholder runtime, agent/session selection can target Hermes successfully, but runtime
execute()will throw.

Test coverage
The plugin tests validate:
- Manifest identity
- Runtime registration + metadata consistency
- Placeholder runtime return shape (
status: "deferred") execute()failure semantics- Hook behavior (
onLoad,onUnload, event emission)
