## Thinking Path > - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for work. > - Paperclip runs agents through adapters, including built-in local and gateway-style adapters. > - Hermes gateway users need to connect Paperclip to an already-running Hermes API server. > - The gateway setup flow was missing clear non-local adapter configuration fields and accepted fewer URL shapes than operators naturally paste from Hermes. > - It also surfaced sparse diagnostics when the gateway was unreachable or when Paperclip generated onboarding prompts for gateway agents. > - This pull request tightens Hermes gateway configuration, URL normalization, diagnostics, and onboarding defaults. > - The benefit is that Hermes gateway setup is easier to complete and easier to debug without affecting unrelated adapters. ## Linked Issues or Issue Description No public issue found for this exact follow-up. Related prior/in-flight Hermes work: - Refs #2363 - Refs #4359 - Refs #6473 Problem statement: - **Type:** Adapter follow-up / setup reliability - **Adapter:** `hermes_gateway` - **Motivation:** Operators configure `hermes_gateway` against a running Hermes API server, but the UI and onboarding flow did not expose enough gateway-specific configuration or diagnostics. - **Expected behavior:** Paperclip should render the gateway fields, normalize common Hermes dashboard/API URL inputs, preserve sensible gateway onboarding defaults, and report reachability failures with actionable detail. - **Deployment mode:** Built-in adapter package in the Paperclip monorepo. ## What Changed - Added UI config fields for non-local Hermes gateway settings, including tests for rendering and field behavior. - Accepted Hermes dashboard URLs by normalizing them to gateway API URLs for execution. - Improved gateway reachability and run URL diagnostics. - Updated Hermes gateway onboarding text/default behavior so join prompts preserve gateway configuration. - Added focused server, UI, and adapter tests for the gateway configuration and onboarding paths. ## Verification - `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --prefer-offline` - `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/hermes-paperclip-adapter exec vitest run src/gateway/server/execute.test.ts` — 20 passed - `pnpm exec vitest run server/src/__tests__/invite-accept-gateway-defaults.test.ts server/src/__tests__/invite-onboarding-text.test.ts ui/src/adapters/hermes-gateway/config-fields.test.tsx ui/src/components/AgentConfigForm.render.test.tsx ui/src/lib/agent-onboarding-prompt.test.ts` — 23 passed across 5 files - Confirmed the PR diff excludes `pnpm-lock.yaml` and `.github/workflows`. ## Risks Low to moderate risk. The changes are scoped to Hermes gateway configuration/onboarding and generic non-local adapter field rendering. The main risk is rejecting an unusual Hermes URL shape that should be accepted; the normalization tests cover dashboard and API URL variants added here. > For core feature work, check [`ROADMAP.md`](ROADMAP.md) first and discuss it in `#dev` before opening the PR. Feature PRs that overlap with planned core work may need to be redirected — check the roadmap first. See `CONTRIBUTING.md`. ## Model Used OpenAI Codex, GPT-5-based coding agent in a tool-enabled local CLI environment, with shell/GitHub/Paperclip API access.
