+### Output: Detailed or Friendly
+
+Each bot has an Output setting in Inline (the bot's chat settings), with a
+per-chat override. The adapter reads it at the start of every turn (cached for
+30 seconds per chat) and declares the `OUTPUT_MODE` capability so Inline offers
+the setting. An unset setting means Detailed.
+
+- **Detailed**: while Hermes works, one progress message ("Working · 1m 4s")
+  shows each step as a row: commands with their output tail and exit code, files
+  read and searched, edits with their diff, web searches, plans, sub-agents with
+  their own steps nested inside, and approvals waiting on someone. Hermes'
+  commentary between tool calls appears inside it too, and its "still working"
+  notice is left out since the timer already shows it. When the answer is ready
+  the message collapses to "Worked for 1m 4s" and the answer follows as its own
+  message. A message someone sends mid-turn ends the progress message there;
+  later work starts a new one.
+- **Friendly**: no progress message. Hermes' commentary between tool calls posts
+  as short updates, Hermes' "⏳ Working — 3 min" notice keeps a long turn
+  visibly alive (removed once the turn succeeds), then the answer.
+
+Approvals, questions and errors look the same in both modes. Output tails are
+capped at 2,000 characters and diffs at 8,000, and values that look like secrets
+are hidden. Row titles come from the tool, never from its output.
+
+This runs entirely on Hermes' public plugin hooks (`pre_tool_call`,
+`post_tool_call`, `subagent_start`/`subagent_stop`,
+`pre_approval_request`/`post_approval_response`) and its interim-message
+contract. Turns Hermes starts on its own, such as scheduled (cron) runs, have no
+processing hooks and post only their answer.
+
+The old experimental timeline is gone: `INLINE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_ACTIVITY` is
+ignored and logs a warning when enabled.
+
+Inline's display defaults keep Hermes' own tool-progress bubbles off
+(`tool_progress: off`) and turn on `interim_assistant_messages`, which the
+Output setting then shows as Detailed commentary or Friendly updates. Explicit
+Hermes display settings still take precedence: turning `tool_progress` on adds
+Hermes' own progress bubbles on top of Detailed output, and turning
+`interim_assistant_messages` off hides commentary in both modes. Token streaming
+remains opt-in through both `streaming.enabled: true` and
 `display.platforms.inline.streaming: true`.
