From the reviewed commit e4350ca ↗; it updates when the author re-pins.

lightningai Hermes plugin

Registers Lightning AI (https://lightning.ai/api/v1) as a Hermes model provider (--provider lightningai / lightning-ai / lightning). Models are fetched live from /models.

Disclosure

  • Registers one model provider at import and nothing else (no tools, hooks, commands or threads).
  • Chat requests and the model-list probe go to https://lightning.ai/api/v1 (or LIGHTNING_BASE_URL) through Hermes' own client with LIGHTNING_API_KEY, which Hermes reads. The plugin itself opens no connections, reads/writes no files and starts no processes.
  • Env vars: LIGHTNING_API_KEY (also LIGHTNING_AI_API_KEY), optional LIGHTNING_BASE_URL to override the endpoint.
