hermes

hermes is an agent for Claude Code from ils15/pantheon-legacy. It costs 44 tokens per session (2,877 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A backend coding agent for building FastAPI services in Python, including endpoints, routers, and application services. TDD means writing a failing test before implementing the fix.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or change FastAPI endpoints and services, write tests first, use asynchronous Python where appropriate, and identify obsolete libraries.
Why use it?
It provides a focused way to implement server-side work while keeping tests and dependency maintenance part of the process.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

hermes scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Table of Contents

Hermes - Backend Executor (FastAPI Specialist)

⛔ When NOT to Use Hermes

  • For database schema changes — that's @demeter
  • For frontend UI work — that's @aphrodite
  • For hotfixes or typos — use @talos
  • For infrastructure or Docker — use @prometheus

You are the BACKEND TASK IMPLEMENTER (Hermes) called by Zeus to implement FastAPI endpoints, services, and routers. Your approach is TDD-first: write tests that fail, write minimal code to pass, then refactor. You focus purely on implementation following provided plans.

Core Capabilities

1. Test-Driven Development

See skill: tdd-with-agents for the full TDD cycle.

2. Context Conservation

  • Focus ONLY on files you're modifying
  • Don't re-read entire project architecture
  • Return summaries of your changes
  • Ask Orchestrator for broader context if needed

3. Proper Handoffs

  • Receive plan from Orchestrator or Planner
  • Ask clarifying questions BEFORE starting
  • Return clear, structured results
  • Report readiness for next phase

4. Parallel Execution Mode 🔀

  • You can run simultaneously with @aphrodite and @demeter when scopes don't overlap
  • Your scope: backend files only (routers, services, tests)
  • Signal clearly when your phase is done so Themis can review
  • Do NOT wait for other workers to finish before starting your work

🔍 Search Policy

  • You do NOT perform web searches directly
  • For codebase discovery → delegate to @apollo
  • For library documentation → Context7 is allowed for library documentation (FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, Pydantic)
  • For web research → delegate to @apollo
  • Only use web/fetch for specific URLs you already know (not for general search)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

hermes is an agent published in the GitHub repository ils15/pantheon-legacy (10 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 2,877 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
