hermes - 💡(How to fix) Fix Hermes CLI v0.13.0 shows wrong model name in banner — displays 'kimicode' instead of actual model [1 comments, 1 participants]

Hermes version: v0.13.0 (2026.5.7) CLI: Interactive terminal session Expected: Banner should show the actual configured model (e.g. minimax-2.7 or whatever is set in config) Actual: Banner shows kimicode which is incorrect and confusing

Problem

After updating to v0.13.0, the CLI now displays a model name in the banner that doesn't match the actual configured model. The user is using minimax-2.7 but sees kimicode in the CLI banner.

Screenshots

See attached screenshot showing the incorrect model name displayed.

Expected Behavior

The CLI banner should accurately reflect the model configured in ~/.hermes/config.yaml or the active model in use. If a model is not explicitly set or is being resolved from a provider, the CLI should either show 'unknown' or skip the model name rather than displaying a hardcoded or incorrect value.

Suggested Fix

Remove the hardcoded or incorrectly resolved model name from the CLI banner, or fix the model resolution logic so it correctly reads from the active configuration. The previous behavior (no model name, or correct name) was correct — this 'improvement' makes the CLI worse by displaying wrong information.

Impact

• Confusing to users who expect to see their actual model
• Erodes trust in the CLI's accuracy
• Provides no useful information since the displayed name is wrong
