66
|

2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
|
|
67
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
68
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
69
|
+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

|
70
|
+
publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the

|
+
|
|
73
|

3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
|
|
74
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
75
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
76

(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,

|
77
|

use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
|
|
78
|

by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
|
|
80
|
+
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
|
|
81
|
+
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
|
|
82
|
+
institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
|
|
83
|
+
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
|
|
84
|
+
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
|
|
85
|
+
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
|
|
86
|
+
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
|
|
87
|
+
as of the date such litigation is filed.
|
|
88
|
+
|
|
89
|
+
4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
|
|
90
|
+
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
|
|
91
|
+
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
|
|
92
|
+
meet the following conditions:
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
|
|
95
|
+
Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
|
|
98
|
+
stating that You changed the files; and
|
|
99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
|
|
101
|
+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
|
|
102
|
+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
|
|
103
|
+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
|
|
104
|
+
the Derivative Works; and
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
|
|
107
|
+
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
|
|
108
|
+
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
|
|
109
|
+
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
|
|
110
|
+
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
|
|
111
|
+
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
|
|
112
|
+
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
|
|
113
|
+
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
|
|
114
|
+
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
|
|
115
|
+
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
|
|
116
|
+
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
|
|
117
|
+
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
|
|
118
|
+
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
|
|
119
|
+
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
|
|
120
|
+
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
|
|
121
|
+
as modifying the License.
|
|
122
|
+
|
|
123
|
+
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
|
|
124
|
+
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
|
|
125
|
+
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
|
|
126
|
+
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
|
|
127
|
+
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
|
|
128
|
+
the conditions stated in this License.
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
|
|
131
|
+
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
|
|
132
|
+
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
|
|
133
|
+
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
|
|
134
|
+
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
|
|
135
|
+
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
|
|
136
|
+
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
|
|
137
|
+
|
|
138
|
+
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
|
|
139
|
+
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
|
|
140
|
+
except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
|
|
141
|
+
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
|
|
144
|
+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
|
|
145
|
+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
|
|
146
|
+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
|
|
147
|
+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
|
|
148
|
+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
|
|
149
|
+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
|
|
150
|
+
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
|
|
151
|
+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
|
|
152
|
+
|
|
153
|
+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
|
|
154
|
+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
|
|
155
|
+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
|
|
156
|
+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
|
|
157
|
+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
|
|
158
|
+
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
|
|
159
|
+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
|
|
160
|
+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
|
|
161
|
+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
|
|
162
|
+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
|
|
163
|
+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
|
|
164
|
+
|
|
165
|
+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
|
|
166
|
+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
|
|
167
|
+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
|
|
168
|
+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
|
|
169
|
+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
|
|
170
|
+
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
|
|
171
|
+
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
|
|
172
|
+
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
|
|
173
|
+
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
|
|
174
|
+
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

**Give each Hermes agent a signed, expiring permission slip. Nothing outside it runs.**
|
|
37
|
+
|
|
38
|
+
A [Tenuo](https://github.com/tenuo-ai/tenuo) warrant sits in front of every
|
|
39
|
+
Hermes tool call. Each call is checked at the argument level before the
|
|
40
|
+
handler runs. A `delegate_task` child is a grant from the parent warrant,
|
|
41
|
+
verified as a chain. Gateway users each carry their own warrant. Keys,
|
|
42
|
+
warrants, and decisions stay local.

## Install into Hermes
|
|
91
|
+
|
|
92
|
+
**1. Install.**
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
```bash
|
|
95
|
+
# into the venv Hermes uses (pulls in tenuo):
|
|
96
|
+
pip install "git+https://github.com/tenuo-ai/hermes-tenuo.git"
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
# or as a directory plugin under ~/.hermes/plugins:
|
|
99
|
+
hermes plugins install tenuo-ai/hermes-tenuo
|
|
100
|
+
pip install "tenuo>=0.3.0" # Hermes does not install plugin dependencies
|
|
101
|
+
```
|
|
102
|
+
|
|
103
|
+
Requires Hermes Agent 0.20 or newer (tested against upstream, September 2026).
|
|
104
|
+
The pip route installs `tenuo>=0.3.0` for you; the directory route needs the
|
|
105
|
+
extra `pip install` line above.
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
**2. Mint a warrant.** This generates a key pair and a warrant, and prints
|
|
108
|
+
the exact config block to paste.
|
|
109
|
+
|
|
110
|
+
```bash
|
|
111
|
+
hermes-tenuo mint --ttl 1h \
|
|
112
|
+
--allow read_file:path=/data \
|
|
113
|
+
--allow web_search
|
|
114
|
+
```
|
|
115
|
+
|
|
116
|
+
```yaml
|
|
117
|
+
# ~/.hermes/config.yaml (printed by the command above)
|
|
118
|
+
plugins:
|
|
119
|
+
enabled:
|
|
120
|
+
- hermes-tenuo
|
|
121
|
+
entries:
|
|
122
|
+
hermes-tenuo:
|
|
123
|
+
warrant: <base64> # or a path to a .warrant file
|
|
124
|
+
trusted_root: <base64> # the public key that signed it
|
|
125
|
+
signing_key_env: TENUO_SIGNING_KEY
|
|
126
|
+
```
|
|
127
|
+
|
|
128
|
+
```bash
|
|
129
|
+
export TENUO_SIGNING_KEY=<printed by mint>
|
|
130
|
+
```
|
|
131
|
+
|
|
132
|
+
**3. Check the wiring, then run Hermes.**
|
|
133
|
+
|
|
134
|
+
```bash
|
|
135
|
+
hermes-tenuo doctor
|
|
136
|
+
hermes
|
|
137
|
+
```
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
Ask the agent to read `/etc/passwd`. It gets the same denial as the tool
|
|
140
|
+
result. Load `skill_view("hermes-tenuo:tenuo-scope")` to mint a warrant
|
|
141
|
+
for a cron job, a `delegate_task` child, or a gateway session.
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
## Scoping arguments
|
|
144
|
+
|
|
145
|
+
Each `--allow` names a tool and, optionally, constraints on its arguments.
|
|
146
|
+
A tool with no constraints is allowed with any arguments.
|
|
147
|
+
|
|
148
|
+
| Syntax | Meaning | Example |
|
|
149
|
+
|---|---|---|
|
|
150
|
+
| `tool` | any arguments | `--allow web_search` |
|
|
151
|
+
| `tool:arg=/path` | argument must be that path or under it (traversal-safe) | `--allow read_file:path=/data` |
|
|
152
|
+
| `tool:arg=glob*` | argument must match the glob | `--allow web_search:query=acme*` |
|
|
153
|
+
| `tool:arg=a\|b\|c` | argument must be one of the choices | `--allow git:action=status\|diff\|log` |
|
|
154
|
+
| `tool:arg=value` | argument must match exactly | `--allow write_file:mode=w` |
|
|
155
|
+
| `tool:arg=*` | that argument may be anything | `--allow memory:action=*` |
|
|
156
|
+
| `tool:a=..,b=..` | several constraints on one tool | `--allow write_file:path=/tmp/out,mode=w` |
|
|
157
|
+
|
|
158
|
+
Any argument the warrant does not name is unconstrained for that tool. The
|
|
159
|
+
`--ttl` flag takes `30m`, `1h`, `7d`, and so on (default `24h`).
|
|
160
|
+
|
|
161
|
+
For anything the flag syntax cannot express, mint in Python with the full
|
|
162
|
+
constraint set (numeric ranges, case-insensitive paths, and more):
|
|
163
|
+
|
|
164
|
+
```python
|
|
165
|
+
import base64, os
|
|
166
|
+
from tenuo import SigningKey, Warrant, Subpath, Pattern, Range
|
|
167
|
+
|
|
168
|
+
control_key = SigningKey.generate() # keep private; its public key is trusted_root
|
|
169
|
+
agent_key = SigningKey.generate() # export its secret as TENUO_SIGNING_KEY
|
|
170
|
+
|
|
171
|
+
warrant = (
|
|
172
|
+
Warrant.mint_builder()
|
|
173
|
+
.holder(agent_key.public_key)
|
|
174
|
+
.capability("read_file", path=Subpath("/data"))
|
|
175
|
+
.capability("web_search", query=Pattern("acme*"))
|
|
176
|
+
.capability("scale_cluster", replicas=Range.max_value(10))
|
|
177
|
+
.ttl(3600)
|
|
178
|
+
.mint(control_key)
|
|
179
|
+
)
|
|
180
|
+
|
|
181
|
+
path = os.path.expanduser("~/.hermes/tenuo/warrant")
|
|
182
|
+
os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(path), exist_ok=True)
|
|
183
|
+
with open(path, "w") as f:
|
|
184
|
+
f.write(base64.b64encode(warrant.to_bytes()).decode())
|
|
185
|
+
```
|
|
186
|
+
|
|
187
|
+
Point `warrant:` at that file. Set `trusted_root` to the base64 of
|
|
188
|
+
`control_key.public_key.to_bytes()` and `TENUO_SIGNING_KEY` to the base64 of
|
|
189
|
+
`agent_key.secret_key_bytes()`.

## What it unlocks
|
|
192
|
+
|
|
193
|
+
| Scenario | What you do | What you get |
|
|
194
|
+
|---|---|---|
|
|
195
|
+
| **Cron and scheduled agents** | Mint with `--ttl` matching the job window | The job cannot keep acting after it should be done, even if it is still running |
|
|
196
|
+
| **Subagents via `delegate_task`** | Grant from the parent (`grant_builder`) | The child hop is verified as a chain; a researcher cannot suddenly `write_file` |
|
|
197
|
+
| **Multi-user gateways** | Call `guard.set_session_warrant(session_id, warrant)` when a session starts | Per-user permissions, isolated per session, cleared on session end |
|
|
198
|
+
| **Kanban workers** | Drop `~/.hermes/tenuo/warrants/<task_id>.warrant` | The worker loads its own warrant; a denial auto-blocks the task on the board |
|
|
199
|
+
| **Fleet rollout** | Pin `warrant`, `trusted_root`, `on_denial` in managed scope | Users cannot loosen them from `~/.hermes/config.yaml` |
|

Runnable versions of the first three live in
|
|
202
|
+
[`examples/`](https://github.com/tenuo-ai/hermes-tenuo/tree/main/examples).

|
+
|
|
204
|
+
## See what your agent actually calls
|
|
205
|
+
|
|
206
|
+
Every decision is appended to a local JSONL audit log, on by default at
|
|
207
|
+
`~/.hermes/tenuo/audit.jsonl` (profile-aware under `HERMES_HOME`). No account
|
|
208
|
+
needed.
|
|
209
|
+
|
|
210
|
+
```bash
|
|
211
|
+
hermes-tenuo audit --last 20 # one line per tool call
|
|
212
|
+
hermes-tenuo audit --denied # only what the warrant blocked
|
|
213
|
+
hermes-tenuo audit --json | jq ... # raw records
|
|
214
|
+
```
|
|
215
|
+
|
|
216
|
+
```text
|
|
217
|
+
2026-09-12 10:00:00 ALLOW read_file path=/data/q3.md
|
|
218
|
+
2026-09-12 10:00:01 DENY terminal command=ls — Tool 'terminal' is not authorized
|
|
219
|
+
```
|
|
220
|
+
|
|
221
|
+
Not sure what to allow yet? Set `on_denial: log`. Every call is still
|
|
222
|
+
checked and recorded, but nothing is blocked. Run the agent, read the denied
|
|
223
|
+
lines, tighten the warrant, then remove the line (the default is `block`).
|
|
224
|
+
|
|
225
|
+
```yaml
|
|
226
|
+
plugins:
|
|
227
|
+
entries:
|
|
228
|
+
hermes-tenuo:
|
|
229
|
+
warrant: ~/.hermes/tenuo/warrant
|
|
230
|
+
trusted_root: <base64>
|
|
231
|
+
on_denial: log
|
|
232
|
+
```
|
|
233
|
+
|
|
234
|
+
## How it works
|
|
235
|
+
|
|
236
|
+
| Hermes hook | What hermes-tenuo does there |
|
|
237
|
+
|---|---|
|
|
238
|
+
| `pre_tool_call` | Verifies the tool name and arguments against the session's warrant. On denial, returns `{"action": "block", "message": ...}`; the handler never runs. |
|
|
239
|
+
| `post_tool_call` | Adds timing to the recorded decision and writes the audit record. |
|
|
240
|
+
| `subagent_start` | Hands the `child_warrant` to the new child session. |
|
|
241
|
+
| `on_session_end` | Clears any per-session warrant set with `guard.set_session_warrant()`, so gateway users never share one. |
|
|
242
|
+
|
|
243
|
+
The decision itself runs in Tenuo's Rust core: signature, expiry, holder
|
|
244
|
+
proof-of-possession, and every argument constraint. The plugin holds only the
|
|
245
|
+
issuer's **public** key. It never sees the key that minted the warrant.
|
|
246
|
+
|
|
247
|
+
Denials are returned to the model as the tool result, so the agent can
|
|
248
|
+
explain what it was not allowed to do. Raise the `hermes_tenuo` logger level
|
|
249
|
+
to see the same lines as an operator.
|
|
250
|
+
|
|
251
|
+
## Coverage
|
|
252
|
+
|
|
253
|
+
On upstream Hermes, enforcement runs at `pre_tool_call`. That covers every
|
|
254
|
+
tool call made through the agent loop, including the tools `run_agent.py`
|
|
255
|
+
handles before the registry (`todo`, `memory`, `session_search`,
|
|
256
|
+
`delegate_task`). It does not cover:
|
|
257
|
+
|
|
258
|
+
- callers that pass `skip_pre_tool_call_hook=True`;
|
|
259
|
+
- plugins that call `registry.dispatch()` directly;
|
|
260
|
+
- the `execute_code` sandbox's internal tool dispatch.
|
|
261
|
+
|
|
262
|
+
A registry-level hook that closes all three is proposed upstream in
|
|
263
|
+
[hermes-agent#32719](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/32719).
|
|
264
|
+
The plugin detects it at load time and uses it automatically, and
|
|
265
|
+
`hermes-tenuo doctor` reports which path is active.
|
|
266
|
+
|
|
267
|
+
Neither path inspects what an `execute_code` script does on its own, such as
|
|
268
|
+
`subprocess.run(...)`. Use a container backend (Docker, Modal, Daytona) for
|
|
269
|
+
that threat model.
|
|
270
|
+
|
|
271
|
+
## CLI
|
|
272
|
+
|
|
273
|
+
```bash
|
|
274
|
+
hermes-tenuo demo # local allow/deny transcript (no Hermes process)
|
|
275
|
+
hermes-tenuo mint --allow TOOL[:ARG=VALUE,...] [--allow ...] [--ttl 1h] [--output full|yaml|env]
|
|
276
|
+
hermes-tenuo status # what the plugin will load from config and env
|
|
277
|
+
hermes-tenuo verify # decode and check the current warrant
|
|
278
|
+
hermes-tenuo doctor # end-to-end install check
|
|
279
|
+
hermes-tenuo audit [--last N] [--denied] [--json] [--path FILE]
|
|
280
|
+
```
|
|
281
|
+
|
|
282
|
+
Run `doctor` from the same venv Hermes uses. It checks plugin discovery,
|
|
283
|
+
config wiring, warrant validity, that the signing key matches the warrant
|
|
284
|
+
holder, and which enforcement path is active. Run it after every install.
|
|
285
|
+
|
|
286
|
+
## Configuration reference
|
|
287
|
+
|
|
288
|
+
All keys live under `plugins.entries.hermes-tenuo`. Each has an environment
|
|
289
|
+
variable equivalent.
|
|
290
|
+
|
|
291
|
+
| Key | Env | Meaning |
|
|
292
|
+
|---|---|---|
|
|
293
|
+
| `warrant` | `TENUO_WARRANT` | Base64 warrant, or a path to a file containing one. Required for enforcement. |
|
|
294
|
+
| `trusted_root` | `TENUO_TRUSTED_ROOT` | Base64 public key of the issuer. Warrants signed by anything else are rejected. |
|
|
295
|
+
| `signing_key_env` | | Name of the env var holding the agent's Ed25519 secret key. Default `TENUO_SIGNING_KEY`. |
|
|
296
|
+
| `child_warrant` | `TENUO_CHILD_WARRANT` | Warrant handed to sessions spawned by `delegate_task`. |
|
|
297
|
+
| `on_denial` | | `block` (default) or `log`. |
|
|
298
|
+
| `audit_log` | `TENUO_AUDIT_LOG` | Path of the JSONL audit log, or `false` to disable. Default `$HERMES_HOME/tenuo/audit.jsonl`. |
|
|
299
|
+
|
|
300
|
+
Keep secret key material in env vars or a secrets manager, never in
|
|
301
|
+
`config.yaml`.
|
|
302
|
+
|
|
303
|
+
## Things to know
|
|
304
|
+
|
|
305
|
+
- **Enabled but unconfigured is a no-op.** Without a `warrant`, the plugin
|
|
306
|
+
loads, logs a warning, and enforces nothing. `doctor` fails that check.
|
|
307
|
+
- **Multiplexed profiles.** Under `gateway.multiplex_profiles`, `TENUO_*`
|
|
308
|
+
values are read through Hermes `get_secret`, so put each profile's keys in
|
|
309
|
+
that profile's `.env`. A secondary profile does not inherit the launch
|
|
310
|
+
profile's credentials.
|
|
311
|
+
- **Rotate by re-minting.** The control key is not saved by `mint`. To change
|
|
312
|
+
scope, mint a new warrant and replace the config values; the old warrant
|
|
313
|
+
stops being accepted when you change `trusted_root`, or when its TTL ends.
|
|
314
|
+
|
|
315
|
+
## Managed scope (fleet and multi-user)
|
|
316
|
+
|
|
317
|
+
Hermes overlays a root-owned `/etc/hermes/config.yaml` on every user's
|
|
318
|
+
config. hermes-tenuo reads its keys through the same loader, so an
|
|
319
|
+
administrator can pin the warrant and trust anchor for the whole fleet:
|

Pin `warrant`, `trusted_root`, and `on_denial`. Leave `signing_key_env` to
|
|
332
|
+
the environment. Override the managed directory with `HERMES_MANAGED_DIR` for
|
|
333
|
+
containers or non-standard layouts.

## Connecting a control plane (optional)
|
|
336
|
+
|
|
337
|
+
Everything above runs from files and environment variables on one machine.
|
|
338
|
+
That is the right shape for one developer and a handful of agents. Once you
|
|
339
|
+
run a fleet of Hermes agents, cron jobs, and gateway users, the hard part
|
|
340
|
+
stops being the check itself and becomes operating the authority around it:
|
|
341
|
+
who may mint production warrants, how keys rotate, how a bad warrant is
|
|
342
|
+
pulled back before its TTL ends, and where you look when something was
|
|
343
|
+
denied at 3 a.m. A Tenuo control plane takes that over.
|
|
344
|
+
|
|
345
|
+
When `TENUO_CONNECT_TOKEN` is set, the Tenuo SDK inside this plugin connects
|
|
346
|
+
on its own and every allow and deny decision from every Hermes agent streams
|
|
347
|
+
there, with nothing else to configure. On top of that stream the control
|
|
348
|
+
plane gives you:
|
|
349
|
+
|
|
350
|
+
- **Revocation before expiry.** Pull a warrant, a key, or an agent the moment
|
|
351
|
+
something looks wrong instead of waiting for the TTL. Revocation lists are
|
|
352
|
+
published to every verifier.
|
|
353
|
+
- **Central issuance and rotation.** Mint per-job warrants from policy rather
|
|
354
|
+
than by hand, and rotate root and holder keys on a schedule without
|
|
355
|
+
touching each agent's environment.
|
|
356
|
+
- **Human approval gates.** Route calls to sensitive tools to a person, so
|
|
357
|
+
the agent can proceed only with a signed approval.
|
|
358
|
+
- **One searchable audit trail.** Signed receipts from every agent, session,
|
|
359
|
+
and profile in one place, instead of one `audit.jsonl` per machine.
|
|
360
|
+
|
|
361
|
+
Tenuo Cloud is the managed version of that control plane. See
|
|
362
|
+
[tenuo.ai](https://tenuo.ai) for access, or the Tenuo repo for running your
|
|
363
|
+
own.
