During a compliance audit, we noticed that hermes-agent does not have a .github/CODEOWNERS file. Adding one would enable:

  • Automatic review routing (mandatory reviewers for specific paths)
  • Clear ownership of critical code areas (auth, security, CI/CD, packaging)
  • Better compliance traceability for regulatory audits

Summary

During a compliance audit, we noticed that hermes-agent does not have a .github/CODEOWNERS file. Adding one would enable:

  • Automatic review routing (mandatory reviewers for specific paths)
  • Clear ownership of critical code areas (auth, security, CI/CD, packaging)
  • Better compliance traceability for regulatory audits

Suggested coverage

A CODEOWNERS file could cover at minimum:

  • Auth/security code — authentication middleware, API keys, session management
  • CI/CD workflows — .github/workflows/ directory
  • Core agent logic — the main agent loop, tool execution, prompt building
  • Packaging/config — pyproject.toml, Docker configs, install scripts

Reference

We recently added a CODEOWNERS to the hermes-workspace repo under outsourc-e/hermes-workspace (PR #568) which can serve as a template.

This is a non-blocking suggestion — no security vulnerability, just a best practice for larger projects.
