Root Cause

I know there is ACP in VS code but hermes acp doesn't work well because we have to "Send to ACP Chat" this is 2 clicks extra and you need another session open. With Claude code, this is natural and you get the hint that the selection is active and working in the working interactive session

Problem or Use Case

in hermes tui or cli , hermes lacks the context of the VS code (on ssh server at least) file open and line selected. for instance which line and file is selected now

"No. I don’t see your VS Code active file/selection unless you paste it, attach screenshot, or Hermes has IDE/ACP context wired into this session. Current session only has repo/tool context, not editor cursor state."

Proposed Solution

implement same meachnism as claude code to take into account the context of the file open and line selected.
