docs: comprehensive 2-week sweep of feature/PR coverage gaps (#28497)

Catch the website docs up to two weeks of merged work (May 4 – May 18, 2026,
roughly 1,080 PRs). The audit found ~50 user-visible features that had landed
in code with no docs footprint, plus a handful of stale pages. This PR closes
every gap the scan turned up.

New pages
- user-guide/features/deliverable-mode.md — extension list, agent triggers,
  kanban_complete artifacts pattern, [[as_document]] override (PR #27813).
- developer-guide/web-search-provider-plugin.md — authoring guide modeled on
  image-gen-provider-plugin, covering brave_free / ddgs / etc. (PR #25448).

Providers / auth
- Rename "Alibaba Cloud" → "Qwen Cloud (Alibaba DashScope)" everywhere the
  display label shows up; provider id stays `alibaba` (PR #24835).
- Document OAuth refresh-token quarantine for xAI / MiniMax / Codex (PRs
  #28116 / #28118 / #28119).
- Document Nous JWT minting from refresh token + invalid-refresh quarantine
  + cross-profile shared token store (PRs #27663 / #19712).
- Add `## Microsoft Entra ID authentication (keyless)` section to
  azure-foundry guide — DefaultAzureCredential, RBAC, OpenAI + Anthropic
  routing details (PR #28101 / #9df9816da).
- Custom providers `api_mode` is now prompted-and-persisted, not just URL
  autodetected (PR #25068).
- Delegation honours `api_mode` + auto-detects anthropic_messages base URLs
  (PR #26824).
- `x_search` auto-enables when xAI credentials are present (PR #27376).
- Add `xAI Grok OAuth (SuperGrok)` row to providers headline table (PR
  #26534).
- NVIDIA NIM billing-origin header is set automatically (PR #26585).

Windows / installer
- `install.ps1`: document `-Commit <sha>` and `-Tag <v>` pin params plus
  the BOM-strip / git-retry hardening (PR #28169).
- Document Hermes Desktop thin installer + first-launch bootstrap (PR
  #27822).
- Document `dep_ensure` Windows bootstrap (PR #27845).
- Document install-method auto-detection (pip / git / homebrew / nixos) and
  the matching update command (PR #27843).

Gateway / messaging
- `/platform list|pause|resume` full description + circuit-breaker
  semantics (PR #26600).
- Slack / Matrix / Mattermost get parallel `allowed_channels` /
  `allowed_rooms` allowlist sections matching Telegram/Discord/DingTalk
  (PR #21251).
- Discord `allow_any_attachment` + `max_attachment_bytes` (config and env
  vars) (PR #27245).
- Discord clarify-choice button rendering (PR #25485).
- Telegram `guest_mode` @mention bypass for allowlisted groups (PR
  #22759).
- Telegram `notifications` mode (`important` vs `all`) (PR #22793).
- `[[as_document]]` skill / response directive for forcing
  document-style media delivery (PR #21210).

CLI / TUI
- `/new [name]` argument (PR #19637).
- `/subgoal` user-supplied criteria appended to `/goal` (PR #25449).
- `/exit --delete` flag confirmation prompts for destructive slash
  commands (PR #22687).
- Status-bar additions: ▶ N background indicator (PR #27175), context
  compression count (PR #21218), YOLO mode banner+statusbar warning (PR
  #26238).
- `display.timestamps` + `docker_extra_args` config keys (PR #23599).
- TUI collapsible startup banner sections (PR #20625).
- `HERMES_SESSION_ID` exported to tool subprocesses (PR #23847).

i18n
- Refresh display.language locale list from 8 → 16 (en, zh, zh-hant, ja,
  de, es, fr, tr, uk, af, ko, it, ga, pt, ru, hu) — matches
  `agent/i18n.py:SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES`.

Tools / features
- `vision_analyze` native-pixel passthrough for vision-capable callers,
  with auxiliary text-describer fallback (PR #22955).
- `session_search` rewrite to the single-shape tool (discovery / scroll /
  browse modes) (PRs #27590 / #27840).
- Clarify MCP transport scope: client supports stdio + SSE; embedded
  `hermes mcp serve` is stdio-only (PR #21227).
- Web search backends table: add Brave Search (free tier) and DDGS rows
  (PR #21337).
- ACP session-scoped edit auto-approval modes (PR #27862).
- Curator rename map in the user-visible per-run summary (PR #22910).
- Prompt caching feature page reference in features/overview.md — Claude
  cross-session 1-hour prefix cache on native Anthropic / OpenRouter /
  Nous Portal (PR #23828).
- Cron per-job profile parameter (PR #28124).
- `--no-skills` flag for `hermes profile create` (PR #20986).

Build
- Verified with `npm run build` in `website/`; both `en` and `zh-Hans`
  locales compile. Remaining broken-link/anchor warnings are pre-existing
  (`rl-training.md` from learning-path / overview; the
  zh-Hans translation lag the docs skill already calls out).

When set, the skill is automatically hidden from the system prompt, `skills_list()`, and slash commands on incompatible platforms. If omitted, the skill loads on all platforms.
## Skill output and media delivery
When a skill response (or any agent response) includes a bare absolute path to a media file — for example `/home/user/screenshots/diagram.png` — the gateway auto-detects it, strips it from the visible text, and delivers the file natively to the user's chat (Telegram photo, Discord attachment, etc.) instead of leaving the raw path in the message.
For audio specifically, the `[[audio_as_voice]]` directive promotes audio files to native voice-message bubbles on platforms that support them (Telegram, WhatsApp).
### Forcing document-style delivery: `[[as_document]]`
Sometimes you want the **opposite** of inline preview: you want the file delivered as a downloadable attachment, not a re-compressed image bubble. The classic example is a high-resolution screenshot or chart — Telegram's `sendPhoto` recompresses it to ~200 KB at 1280 px, destroying readability. A 1-2 MB PNG sent via `sendDocument` keeps the original bytes intact.
If a response (or any text inside it — typically the last line) contains the literal directive `[[as_document]]`, every media path extracted from that response is delivered as a document/file attachment rather than an image bubble:
```
Here is your rendered chart:
/home/user/.hermes/cache/chart-q4-2025.png
[[as_document]]
```
The directive is stripped before delivery, so users never see it. Granularity is intentionally all-or-nothing per response: emit `[[as_document]]` once and every image path in the same response is delivered as a document. This mirrors the scope of `[[audio_as_voice]]`.
Use it from a skill when:
- You produce screenshots or charts the user needs as files (for editing in another tool, archiving, sharing intact).
- The default lossy preview would obscure detail (small text, pixel-accurate diagrams, color-sensitive renders).
Platforms without a separate document path (e.g. SMS) fall back to whatever attachment mechanism they have.
### Conditional Activation (Fallback Skills)
Skills can automatically show or hide themselves based on which tools are available in the current session. This is most useful for **fallback skills** — free or local alternatives that should only appear when a premium tool is unavailable.
