User supplied the real vector source at Hermes/Icons/file.svg. Dropped the
background rectangle, kept the sky-blue foreground + dark inner detail
cutouts, squared the viewBox around the content bbox with a small margin.
Result: ~6.6 KB SVG, pixel-perfect at every size — no more 60x downscale
blur.
- bundled-addons/hermes/assets/mark.svg: tight-cropped vector
(viewBox centres the icon in a square so 1:1 slots don't crop).
- bundled-addons/hermes/assets/mark-64.svg: same, pre-normalised to a
0..64 viewBox for legacy consumers that assume that range.
- bundled-addons/hermes/addon.json: version 0.2.4; manifest icon is now
the SVG as a data:image/svg+xml;base64 URI (8.8 KB vs the previous
16 KB PNG data URI).
- bundled-addons/hermes/panel.html: both img tags point at mark.svg at
24 and 72 px.
- home.html / home-brand/hermes-mark.svg: Hermes.X tile uses the vector.
- site/hermes/{favicon,branding/mark}.svg: both now the user's artwork.
- site-hermes-x/assets/{favicon,mark}.svg: same.
- All /hermes site HTML img tags swapped from mark.webp to mark.svg.
Installed bundle + user-data cache hot-patched to 0.2.4 so this takes
effect on the running Theseus without a reinstall.

<h2>The name</h2>
|
|
<p>In English the product is <b>Hermes</b> — after the Greek god of
|
|
messengers, travellers, and crossings. In modern Greek the same name is
|
|
<b>Ermis</b> (Ἑρμῆς). Written form is always Hermes outside Greek contexts.</p>
|
|
<p>The keyboard shortcut inside Theseus is <code class="inline">Ctrl+Shift+E</code>
|
|
— E for Ermis, off the collision path with Chrome's own Ctrl+Shift+M.</p>

<h2>The mark</h2>
|
|
<p class="lede">A tilted envelope with three speed-trails on the back edge
|
|
— a letter mid-flight. Monochrome, scales from 16 px (sidebar icon) to
|
|
160 px (hero) without legibility loss. SVG uses
|
|
<code class="inline">currentColor</code> so it inherits whatever text
|
|
colour it sits in.</p>
