What the reviewer found

Configuration/reference skill for the Hermes Agent CLI itself. The curl install.sh|bash line is the project's own official installer from NousResearch's repo, the sudo loginctl line is standard systemd-linger troubleshooting advice, and the rm -rf mention just documents the tool's own destructive-command approval prompt. Worth flagging only because the doc also documents an 'off'/--yolo approval mode that skips all confirmation prompts.

How this review was made

Sonnet 5 read the files above on 7 September 2026 and answered three questions: is it dangerous to whoever installs it, is each scanner finding real, and what should the installer know. The verdict is bound to the file's hash; when the file changes, it is scanned afresh and reviewed again. A script that changes while the definition does not is not re-reviewed — that is a known gap. How the scan and the review work.
