aulayai/hermes repository overview

⁠hermes-aulay

A Hermes Agent⁠ platform plugin that adds one messaging platform called Aulay. Instead of configuring Telegram, Discord or Slack inside every Hermes instance, the instance dials out to aulay.io over aulay-messaging/1 with a route-scoped bridge token; Aulay owns the messenger connections and relays conversations in, replies out. Hermes never learns which messenger a message came from — it gets a client profile (chat-mobile@1, …) with guidance per message (MessageEvent.channel_prompt), and Aulay renders its reply for the real surface.

Ships inside docker.io/aulayai/hermes:<upstream>-aulay.<n> (hosted assistants) and in the Aulay runtime-host image (the Code app's Hermes tile). Configured by Aulay through two files it owns:

• config.yaml: plugins.enabled: [aulay], gateway.platforms.aulay.enabled: true
• $HERMES_HOME/aulay/bridge.json: { "url": "wss://ai.aulay.io/api/messaging/bridge/ws", "token": "amsg_…", "instance_id": "asst_…" }

Environment overrides: AULAY_MESSAGING_URL, AULAY_BRIDGE_TOKEN, AULAY_ASSISTANT_ID, AULAY_BRIDGE_CONFIG. hermes-aulay-doctor checks the settings and performs a handshake.
