NMTZ-z

Local System One / Laya Typed Decisions control plane for Hermes Agent. Sends task text to a loopback sidecar for reversible OFF/Shadow/Canary routing decisions, with explicit Canary acknowledgement and fail-open behavior. Disclosure — executes nothing and does not start the sidecar. In Shadow/Canary mode it POSTs each turn's task text (last user message up to 4000 chars, or the owned Kanban card title/body) plus up to 2000 chars of recent user/assistant messages to the configured sidecar URL (default loopback 127.0.0.1:8787; user-configurable to any host; no auth header). Its only request mutations, in acknowledged Canary mode on the first provider call of a turn, are removing the web_search/web_extract tools and (off by default) lowering reasoning_effort for gemini-3.8-flash-tiered; plugin state is metadata-only under plugin-data/. The sidecar (same repo, separate pip install, Apple-Silicon MLX/CoreML) is a text classifier that downloads a pinned Hugging Face model.
