New

Hermes Agent support in githits init githits init now detects Hermes Agent alongside the other supported AI coding tools and writes its MCP server configuration to ~/.hermes/HERMES_HOME while preserving existing YAML comments. Run githits init to set it up.Agent-safe staged onboarding The init command now supports a staged, non-interactive flow for agents and CI. New flags on githits init:
  • --detect-agents — scan for supported AI tools and exit without making changes.
  • --install-agents <ids> — install only the agents you explicitly name. Idempotent for already-configured agents.
  • --json — emit detection and install results as structured JSON.
--yes is rejected in non-interactive runs to prevent surprise side effects. See the headless CI guide for usage patterns.Copy-paste agent snippet on the init ready screen After setup completes, githits init now prints a snippet you can drop directly into your AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md so your agent knows when to reach for GitHits tools.

​
Improved

Redesigned init onboarding flow Rewritten copy across every init screen (intro, detect, choose, sign-in, install, ready, uninstall) in a clearer, agent-focused voice. The CLI also picks up a new brand color, a gradient ASCII logo, highlighted --help section titles, and an animated spinner with rotating labels on example, search, code, and docs while requests are in flight.Target resolution feedback for code navigation Code navigation tools (search, code_files, code_read, code_grep) now surface compact, actionable warnings when a target needs freshness or indexing attention, and stay quiet on healthy default-branch requests. Follow-up targets and default-branch intent are preserved across calls.Severity-filtered transitive upgrade advisories pkg_upgrade_review now applies your min_severity setting to transitive vulnerability counts, so the evidence you see matches the threshold you asked for. The previous “transitive counts are unfiltered” caveat has been removed.

​
Fixed

  • --no-color now actually disables color. The flag was previously registered but never wired up. Every styled output across the CLI now respects it.
  • githits logout no longer reads the keychain. Logout completes cleanly without unnecessary credential prompts.
  • Auth is refreshed before init login to avoid stale-session failures during onboarding.
  • Init detection messaging is clearer when no compatible agents are found, and login guidance is suppressed when an install step fails.
  • Node 20 compatibility restored after a regression in the previous release.
  • Stale-search warnings suppressed when the follow-up target matches the original request.
