📄 Description

Summary

Adds a new section to the Hermes integration guide covering DeepSeek's Thinking Mode behavior and its known HTTP 400 error when used with Hermes Agent.

Problem

DeepSeek models have Thinking Mode enabled by default. When Hermes performs tool calls, the model generates reasoning_content (chain-of-thought) that must be passed back in subsequent requests per DeepSeek's API requirement. However, Hermes sets display.show_reasoning to false by default, which strips reasoning_content from the conversation history, causing:

HTTP 400: The `reasoning_content` in the thinking mode must be passed back to the API.

This is a real issue users encounter, and the existing docs don't mention it.

Changes

Add section on Thinking Mode behavior with Hermes
Document the HTTP 400 error cause
Provide two solutions:
1. Disable Thinking Mode (recommended) — via extra_body.thinking.type: disabled
2. Keep Thinking Mode — enable show_reasoning: true to preserve reasoning_content
Updated both hermes.md (English) and hermes.zh-CN.md (Chinese)

Verification

Both files only add new content; no existing content was modified
Both English and Chinese versions are consistent
