TL;DR

The most likely fix is to adjust the color pair initialization in the hermes_cli/plugins_cmd.py file to use a valid color number.

Guidance

• The error occurs because the color number used in curses.init_pair(4, 8, -1) exceeds the maximum allowed color number (7) for the current terminal configuration.
• To fix this, you can try changing the color number to a valid value, such as 7, as mentioned in the workaround.
• Verify that the changed color value (7) is the correct color by checking the appearance of the plugin UI after making the change.
• Consider checking the terminal configuration and the curses library documentation to understand the color number limitations and how to handle them.

Example

# Replace the line causing the error with a valid color number
curses.init_pair(4, 7, -1)  # Use color number 7 instead of 8

Notes

The provided workaround suggests changing the color number to 7, but it's unclear if this is the intended color. Further investigation may be needed to determine the correct color value.

Recommendation

Apply the workaround by replacing the invalid color number with a valid one, such as 7, to resolve the immediate error. However, it's recommended to investigate further to ensure the correct color is being used.
