Systematically debug a misbehaving Hermes install: wrong/old code running after dev work, config changes that don't take effect, provider/model 404s, simple ops queries that explode into 6-17 delegated model calls, missing tools, "which city?" weather failures, the gateway looking dead after a restart, or runs that…
The deployment invariant and recovery procedure for a Hermes editable install where the checked-out git branch IS the running code (editable-install pattern). Use this skill WHENEVER restarting, updating, or doing dev work near the live Hermes tree, when the gateway won't stop/status correctly after a dashboard…
Maintain a personal Hermes fork: rebase feature branches onto upstream/main, rebuild an integration branch, resolve conflicts on the hot files (delegatetool.py, gateway/run.py, hermescli/config.py, apiserver.py), and enforce the editable-install invariant — the checked-out branch IS the running code, so the live tree…
Authoritative map of how Hermes Agent (NousResearch) works under the hood: the four ways to drive it (CLI, the AIAgent Python library, the OpenAI-compatible API server, and the messaging gateway), which surface to use for which job, the AIAgent constructor knobs that control speed/cost, and the gateway's message flow…
How a Hermes orchestrator should ROUTE work: match the execution mechanism to the task. Deterministic single-command ops (is X running, service status, disk, logs, docker ps, cluster health) go DIRECT to a cluster-ops tool — never delegate, never KB-search first. Reasoning/judgment work (debug+propose, plan…
Tune a local-model Hermes for latency: run the warm gateway/interactive path not a cold one-shot CLI, trim toolsets per profile, pin frequently-used tools so they aren't deferred behind toolsearch, keep the model resident, weigh the 32k-vs-64k context VRAM tradeoff, offload compression to a fast cloud model, and pick…
How to author and edit skills FOR Hermes Agent (NousResearch) — the Hermes SKILL.md frontmatter contract, body structure, conditional activation, env vars and credential files, template tokens, inline shell, media delivery, and publishing. Use this skill WHENEVER creating, editing, reviewing, or debugging a Hermes…
