Hermes v2026.7.1 tags the security wave that was main-only last issue
What this changes for operators
- Hermes v2026.7.1 ships the prior main-only wave: MCP-config persistence hardening, cron
base_urlcredential-exfiltration blocking, prefix-secret sentinels for file reads, Slackxapp-token redaction, browser cloud-metadata guardrails, resume/session scoping, and a dependency floor. - Upgrade from v2026.6.19 if you were waiting for a tag. The channel question changed from 'run main or wait' to a normal release upgrade.
