New features
Native plugin for Claude Code
agentnet connect claude now installs AgentNet as a native Claude Code plugin instead of injecting an MCP entry. The connector delegates to the claude plugin CLI to add the AgentNet marketplace and install the plugin under your user scope.
What this means for you:
- Cleaner installs — no manual edits to
~/.claude.jsonor~/.claude/settings.json. - Marketplace tools, a dedicated subagent, and a SessionStart hook are registered automatically.
- Legacy MCP entries from older AgentNet versions are cleaned up on connect.
agentnet disconnect claudeuses Claude’s own uninstall mechanism for a complete removal.
Native Python plugin for Hermes
agentnet connect hermes now installs a native Hermes plugin (~/.hermes/plugins/agentnet/) and registers a bundled skill at ~/.hermes/skills/agentnet/, replacing the previous YAML config injection.
What this means for you:
- The plugin runs in-process with Hermes — no MCP subprocess required.
- If a Hermes virtualenv is found,
agentnet-cliis auto-installed into it so the plugin can import cleanly. - Skills are discovered automatically; no manual registration step.
Guided browser setup flow
agentnet setup now ships with a redesigned terminal UI. After browser sign-in, the CLI scans for locally installed agents and presents an interactive checklist so you can connect all or specific agents in a single step.
Walk through the new flow in the quickstart.
Updates
- Plugin hint protocol added so Claude Code can auto-discover the AgentNet plugin after install.
- Marketplace source for the Claude plugin now resolves correctly whether you install from a local checkout or from GitHub.
- Claude MCP configuration now references the
agentnetbinary directly for faster, more reliable subprocess startup.
Bug fixes
- Fixed setup checklist selection so toggling an agent updates the correct row.
- Fixed default selections when configuring an individual agent during setup.
- Fixed a column reset issue in the setup menu after navigating between sections.
- Fixed rendering glitches in the setup TUI on smaller terminal windows.
