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 | $0.00034 | $0.02122 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.01061 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00424 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00212 |
Grade A, and why
ccc-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 5d 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.

$ccc-hermes — Hermes ↔ Claude Code Bridge
Turns Claude Code into a Hermes frontend and Hermes into a Claude Code extension. Messages flow both ways: a Telegram DM can wake a Claude Code session, and a long-running Opus task can stream progress back to your Discord. Only loads if the OpenClaw Gateway (Hermes) is running locally on port 18789.
What it does
Two-way MCP bridge between Claude Code (single-session deep reasoning) and Hermes / OpenClaw Gateway (multi-channel, multi-agent fleet across Discord, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, BlueBubbles, WebChat). Inbound: Hermes routes a channel message to a Claude Code session and returns the reply to the originating channel. Outbound: Claude Code calls Hermes-exposed actions (send-to-Discord, query-agent, dispatch-paperclip-task) as MCP tools. Includes auto-escalation — when a Hermes agent (typically GPT-5.5 or Sonnet) hits a hard problem, it forwards the task to Claude Code Opus and streams the answer back.
Activation triggers
- "connect to hermes" / "bridge to openclaw"
- "I want to use my Telegram with Claude Code"
- "send progress to my Discord while you build"
- "let Hermes hand off hard tasks to me"
- "wire up the gateway"
Detection logic
Always probe before activating. Bail gracefully if Hermes is not present — this skill is opt-in by environment, not by config.
# Single non-blocking probe (2s timeout)
curl -fsS --max-time 2 http://localhost:18789/health 2>/dev/null \
| jq -e '.status == "ok"' >/dev/null && echo "hermes:up" || echo "hermes:down"
Decision table:
| Probe result | Action |
|---|---|
hermes:up |
Continue — render bridge status, list available channels |
hermes:down |
Print: "Hermes Gateway not detected at :18789. Install OpenClaw via npm i -g openclaw and run openclaw gateway start. Skipping bridge." Then exit. |
| Connection refused | Same as hermes:down |
Port bound but /health 4xx/5xx |
Print version mismatch warning + exit |
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.

ccc-hermes is a skill published in the GitHub repository KevinZai/commander (6 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 2,122 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.
