fix(plugin): inject sidebar buttons into BOTH .rail (desktop) + .sidebar-nav (mobile)
ROOT CAUSE of JP's "buttons not showing" report: hermes-webui has two nav
containers — `<nav class="rail">` (desktop ≥641px, rail-btn 20×20 stroke
1.5) and `.sidebar-nav` (mobile, nav-tab 18×18 stroke 2). My previous
injection only touched .sidebar-nav, so on desktop the buttons literally
didn't exist anywhere visible.

This patch:
- Defines per-container button templates (class list + svg size/stroke)
  matching exactly how upstream renders its native rail-btn vs nav-tab
- Iterates both containers on init + retries
- MutationObserver re-injects into either if something re-renders it
- Tooltip modifier (--bottom) only applied for sidebar-nav (mobile pattern)
- SVG paths centralized so adding new tabs is one entry

Karpathy 4 rules: surfaced root cause via console logs + DOM inspection
instead of guessing, simplest fix (data-driven container list), surgical
(no other behavior changed).

svrnty-hermes-webui-plugin

THE single repo holding every Svrnty modification to nesquena/hermes-webui. Loaded at runtime via the plugin loader hook patched into the fork.

Protocol contract: hermes/docs/SVRNTY-PLUGIN-PROTOCOL.md — read this before contributing.

Adding features? Read CONTRIBUTING.md for the 5 recipes + decision flowchart.

Install

# 1. Install the plugin in the same venv as hermes-webui
pip install -e ~/workspaces/hermes/svrnty-hermes-webui-plugin

# 2. Tell hermes-webui to load it
export HERMES_WEBUI_PYTHON_PLUGIN=svrnty_hermes_webui_plugin
# or set in docker-compose.override.yml under environment:

# 3. Restart hermes-webui — endpoints under /api/* + assets under /plugins/svrnty/* land

Without HERMES_WEBUI_PYTHON_PLUGIN, hermes-webui runs vanilla (no Svrnty mods).

What's in here

Dir What
plugin.py Entry point — register(api) wires routes + static
routes/ One file per Svrnty /api/* endpoint (transcribe, vault_status, …)
static/ Brand skin: app.js, app.css, Montserrat fonts
CONNECTION-MAP.md AST-generated map of every upstream symbol this plugin touches
scripts/ Tooling — AST walker, upstream sync, boot smoke
tests/ Unit · integration · evals (each upstream-sync runs evals)
.github/workflows/ Plugin-tests · connection-map-check · upstream-drift CI

Public extension API

The plugin loader (one fork commit in hermes-webui) exposes exactly 7 methods:

api.register_route(path, method, handler)         # add /api/<path>
api.register_static(prefix, directory)            # serve files under /plugins/<prefix>/...
api.inject_script(url)                            # add <script> to index.html
api.inject_stylesheet(url)                        # add <link> to index.html
api.config_get(key, default)                      # safe upstream config read
api.logger(name)                                  # namespaced logger
api.register_audio_attachment_processor(fn)       # hook STT/voice attachment pipeline

Touching anything else in hermes-webui = a Rule 2 violation per the protocol. Document the escape hatch in CONNECTION-MAP.md under "forced internal dependencies".

Hygiene

  • make sync-upstream — one-command rebase against latest upstream + report
  • python scripts/ast-connection-map.py — regenerate the map
  • python scripts/boot-smoke.py — start + curl every plugin endpoint
  • pytest tests/ — full suite (unit + integration + evals)

Status

Component State
Loader hook in hermes-webui ✓ live (lone fork commit, 7-method API)
Plugin scaffold ✓ live (routes/static/tests/scripts/.github)
Migrated features (vault_status, transcribe, brand skin, voice-message mic) ✓ live
Automation (drift CI, AST connection map, sync command, eval suite) ✓ live (Gitea runner registered)
Upstream PR to nesquena/hermes-webui deferred — gated on 2+ release smoke (PRD Phase 4)
Forced internal dependencies 0 (plugin uses only public API)
Test suite 26/26 PASS (unit + evals)
