# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Import error for is_provider_enabled from hermes_cli.config

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

All three members concern an import problem involving \`is_provider_enabled\` and \`hermes_cli.config\`: one bug report (Hermes Desktop 0.19.0) and two pull requests proposing a circular-import fix and an import fallback. The titles alone don't establish the root cause or whether either change addresses the report.

## TL;DR

- 3 member(s): 0 open issue(s), 1 closed issue(s), 0 open PR(s), 0 merged PR(s), 2 PR(s) closed without merging.
- No fix has been merged to main; one or more PRs were attempted (see below).
- **Recommended:** review the prior/competing PR(s) below. A fix was attempted but not merged; your case may extend or revive that work.

## Maintainer resolution verdict

- Internal-tracker verdict over this cluster's issue members: `unresolved`. This is distinct from the fix status above. Weigh it yourself.

## How this cluster was grouped
