Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00176 | $0.01739 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00070 | $0.00696 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00035 | $0.00348 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00174 |
Grade A, and why
hermes-sessions-cli 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 today.
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.

<quick_start>
The hermes-sessions CLI follows this pattern:
hermes-sessions <command-group> <action> [arguments] [options]
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Check authentication status across profiles | hermes-sessions auth status |
| Get one context segment, addressed as : | hermes-sessions conversations get <REFERENCE> |
| List context segments | hermes-sessions conversations list |
| Get details for one workspace | hermes-sessions projects get <NAME> |
| List every workspace that has Hermes sessions | hermes-sessions projects list |
| Search message content through the Hermes FTS5 index | hermes-sessions search run <QUERY> |
| Get one session's metadata and counts | hermes-sessions sessions get [SESSION_ID] |
| List sessions newest-first | hermes-sessions sessions list |
| Search session titles | hermes-sessions sessions search <QUERY> |
| Get one skill load or slash command by its record ID | hermes-sessions skills get <REFERENCE> |
| List skill loads (kind=skill) and slash commands (kind=command) | hermes-sessions skills list |
| Get one subagent run by its child session ID | hermes-sessions subagent-activity get <CHILD_SESSION_ID> |
| List delegated subagent runs | hermes-sessions subagent-activity list |
| Merge a session and its subagent runs into one bounded chronological view | hermes-sessions timeline consolidated [SESSION_ID] |
| Get the full event timeline of one session | hermes-sessions timeline get [SESSION_ID] |
| List activity events across the scoped sessions | hermes-sessions timeline list |
| Get one todo item, addressed as : | hermes-sessions todos get <REFERENCE> |
| List todo items | hermes-sessions todos list |
| Get one tool call by its call ID | hermes-sessions tool-calls get <CALL_ID> |
| List tool calls across the scoped sessions | hermes-sessions tool-calls list |
| Get one turn, addressed as : | hermes-sessions turns get <REFERENCE> |
| List turns across the scoped sessions | hermes-sessions turns list |
| </quick_start> |
<essential_principles>
MANDATORY: Verify the live command shape before executing ANY hermes-sessions command.
Consult usage.json when the repo or installed package ships it. If usage.json is absent, use hermes-sessions --help, the relevant subcommand --help, and README.md instead. Never guess at command syntax.
auth status is the ONLY auth command. There is no auth login, auth logout, auth test, or auth profiles here, unlike most cli-tools CLIs: this
tool holds no credential, so there is nothing to log into and no profile state
to write. Do not suggest or run those commands against hermes-sessions.
For any Hermes change, use the hermes-agent skill and Hermes' own surfaces
instead; do not reach for this CLI.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.
