hermes-notify 0.4.2

Hermes notification toolkit — bus message sender, tmux notifier

hermes-notify

English | 中文

A config-driven notification toolkit for Hermes Agent — CLI senders for bus messages and tmux notifications.

Works with hermes-bus and hermes-bus-plugin. Route rules live in ~/.hermes/bus-rules.yaml.

What is this?

hermes-notify provides two CLI tools:

• notify-hermes — send messages to any bus endpoint (short-lived connection via hermes_bus.client.send_message)
• notify-agent — send messages to tmux sessions via send-keys

Route processing (print, context injection, command execution) is handled by hermes-bus-plugin.

Quickstart

1. Install: pip install hermes-notify
2. Configure route rules in ~/.hermes/bus-rules.yaml (see hermes-bus-plugin)
3. Send a message: notify-hermes --to my-service --type task_done "Hello"
4. The plugin matches match_type: task_done and handles it

Install

pip install hermes-notify

Or from source:

git clone https://github.com/mlinquan/hermes-notify.git
cd hermes-notify && pip install -e .

CLI

# Send a message to any bus endpoint
notify-hermes --to my-service --type task_done "Task completed"
notify-hermes --to my-service --type progress "50% done"
notify-hermes --to my-service --type ack "Received"

# Send a notification to a tmux session
notify-agent mysession "Start working"
notify-agent --simple mysession "FYI: something happened"

# Route processing is handled by hermes-bus-plugin
# See https://github.com/mlinquan/hermes-bus-plugin

Configuration

Route rules are defined in ~/.hermes/bus-rules.yaml and processed by hermes-bus-plugin. See its README for the full rule format.

Session aliases and the default sender name are also configured in bus-rules.yaml:

Architecture

notify-hermes ──→ hermes-bus (Unix Socket)
notify-agent  ──→ tmux send-keys

Message routing (print/inject/command) is handled by hermes-bus-plugin
via ~/.hermes/bus-rules.yaml.

Session Aliases

Map tmux session names to human-readable sender names in bus-rules.yaml:

session_aliases:
  session-1: alias-1
  session-2: alias-2

default_sender: notify-agent
