# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Web picker rows reflect per-capability backend keys

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

The picker UI for web toolsets was not consulting per-capability settings (web.search_backend, web.extract_backend) when highlighting active backend rows. These changes address that mismatch so highlighted rows reflect which backend is actually serving each capability.
