Large release adding a browser-based management dashboard, a /fast priority-routing toggle for OpenAI and Anthropic models, iMessage (via BlueBubbles) and WeChat/WeCom adapters, Android/Termux support, and a broad security hardening pass. Relevant if you self-host Hermes on messaging platforms or run it on mobile.
