Teknium 6038bfb66e docs: explain remote-gateway session token for Hermes Desktop (#38144)
The desktop Remote gateway field asks for a session token that Hermes never
surfaces — by default web_server.py mints an ephemeral token per boot and
injects it into the served HTML, so there is nothing in config.yaml, /gateway,
or env to copy. Document that you pin it yourself via
HERMES_DASHBOARD_SESSION_TOKEN, run the backend with --insecure (keeps the
legacy token auth path instead of engaging the OAuth gate), then paste that
value into the desktop app.

- web-dashboard.md: new 'Connecting Hermes Desktop to a remote backend' section
  (backend + desktop steps, --insecure vs OAuth-gate nuance, HERMES_DESKTOP_*
  env override, Tailscale guidance, troubleshooting).
- environment-variables.md: new 'Web Dashboard & Hermes Desktop' env-var table
  (HERMES_DASHBOARD_SESSION_TOKEN, HERMES_DESKTOP_REMOTE_URL/TOKEN, the OAuth
  and public-url vars) — none were previously documented.

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
