If the tool calls, thought processes, and activity panels in the Hermes Agent TUI are too noisy, use /details to adjust the display level, and there is no need to change the model or turn off the tool. TUI supports global and partition control, which is suitable for balancing "understanding the execution process" and "not being too cluttered".
Fastest temporary adjustments
- Enter
/details collapsed: Collapse details by default. - Enter
/details hidden: Try to hide details and only see the results. - Enter
/details tools expanded: Only expand the tool call for easy troubleshooting. - Enter
/details activity collapsed: Pull back the active panel that is hidden by default.
How to match it if you want to take effect for a long time
Write your preferences into the display.details_mode or display.sections of the ~/.hermes/config.yaml. For example, someone who debugs code frequently can keep tools expanded; People who just want to chat can set the global to collapsed or hidden.
Note that hiding details does not mean that the tool is not running. When troubleshooting, it is recommended to expand tools first to see what commands Hermes executed, which files were read, and which steps failed. Put the interface away after confirming stability.
