hermes-hud-diagnostics

hermes-hud-diagnostics is a skill for Claude Code from automateyournetwork/netclaw. It costs 25 tokens per session (414 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A diagnostic skill for checking whether the Hermes HUD is selected, configured, authenticated, and ready to report tool status. Hermes HUD is a shared status interface for a Hermes installation, not a system for submitting work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect HUD readiness, explain a required installation or selection change, and reconcile unknown work through the HUD's status and history.
Why use it?
It helps separate missing configuration, uncertain requests, source mismatches, and execution verification without resubmitting work or exposing private data. It also avoids restarting the gateway as a shortcut.

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-hud-diagnostics scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 9d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Hermes HUD diagnostics

Use for a Hermes installation whose shared HUD is unavailable, incorrectly selected, or showing an uncertain request. Read docs/HERMES-HUD.md and mcp-servers/hermes-hud-mcp/README.md in the NetClaw checkout.

  1. Run ./scripts/netclaw hud status from the checkout. Observe selection, configuration presence, authenticated companion readiness, qualified tools and separately reported execution verification. Do not print provider credentials or private transcript contents.
  2. If selection is wrong, explain the intended hud select hermes /absolute/home change before making an owner-requested switch. Do not infer a home from OpenClaw data.
  3. Missing component needs ./scripts/install.sh --runtime hermes --add hermes-hud; start only when requested. Never restart the owner's Hermes gateway as a diagnostic shortcut.
  4. A source/policy mismatch requires requalification or restoration of the pinned source. Do not disable protection, register unreviewed tools or silently switch to OpenClaw.
  5. Unknown work is reconciled through its owned HUD status/history. Never resubmit it, infer cancellation from stop acknowledgment, or claim a device operation from assistant prose.
  6. Live provider/tool tests require the explicit acceptance workflow; a read-only status request does not authorize inference, tool execution or device access.

The bridge's eight tools are HUD-private. Do not add them to Hermes or OpenClaw MCP registries, call conversation submission from inside an agent, or broaden once/deny approvals. Initial qualification supports only the reviewed IPv4 subnet tool and static installed skill context. Writes, attachments, model/effort overrides, hosted Avatar and federation are unavailable; federation belongs to spec 149. Local Avatar shares Standard Chat without creating a run merely by switching views.

Changes

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.
