Full changelog
Hermes Agent v0.18.2 (v2026.7.7.2)
Release Date: July 7, 2026
Same-day patch on top of v0.18.1, picking up the WhatsApp Baileys dependency fix needed for tagged-release Docker builds.
What's in this patch
- fix(whatsapp): unpin Baileys from git commit, use published 7.0.0-rc13 (#60643) — the WhatsApp bridge dependency now installs from the published npm release instead of a pinned git commit, making installs and Docker image builds reliable.
Full curated release notes for the entire post-v0.18.0 window ship with v0.19.0.
