watchline-hermes-plugin 0.1.0

Hermes Agent delivery adapter for Watchline.

Watchline for Hermes Agent

Watchline is an event layer for agents. This Hermes plugin delivers matched Watchline events into a local Hermes gateway without exposing your laptop to the internet.

Watchline uses two integration planes:

• Hosted MCP gives Hermes the watch tools: start_watch, continue_watch, list_watches, pause_watch, resume_watch, and delete_watch.
• This plugin registers a Hermes gateway platform named watchline. It polls a Watchline pull channel and forwards matched events as inbound Hermes messages.

The plugin intentionally does not duplicate Watchline tools. Hermes discovers tools from the hosted MCP server, and this adapter only handles local delivery.

Install

hermes plugins install qordinate-ai/watchline-hermes-plugin --enable

After the first PyPI release, the package can also be installed directly:

python -m pip install watchline-hermes-plugin

For local development:

hermes plugins install file:///absolute/path/to/watchline-hermes-plugin --enable

Configure

Create a Watchline API key and pull channel at https://watch.qordinate.ai, then run:

hermes watchline configure \
  --api-key wl_... \
  --channel-id ch_... \
  --user-id me \
  --delivery-channel main \
  --api-base-url https://api.watch.qordinate.ai

The command writes:

• gateway.platforms.watchline for delivery.
• mcp_servers.watchline for hosted watch tools.

Restart the Hermes gateway after changing plugin or MCP config:

hermes gateway restart

Use

Ask Hermes to use Watchline:

Use the Watchline start_watch tool to watch Gmail for emails from my boss.
Ask me for the sender email address if needed.

When a matching event arrives, Watchline queues it on your pull channel. The plugin polls that channel, runs Hermes against your main/home channel, and acknowledges the delivery only after Hermes accepts it.

Commands

hermes watchline status
hermes watchline install-mcp
hermes watchline preview-delivery
