world2agent-manage

world2agent-manage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from machinepulse-ai/world2agent-plugins. It costs 70 tokens per session (3,040 once invoked), scanned C, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool for installing, viewing, and removing World2Agent sensors on a Hermes machine. Sensors subscribe to outside sources such as Hacker News, GitHub, X, market data, RSS feeds, or research papers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add or remove subscriptions, inspect existing sensors, and manage alerts from outside-world sources.
Why use it?
It provides one way to manage which external sources the agent watches and receives notifications from.

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 C, and why

world2agent-manage scanned grade C with 2 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 13 executable files (scripts/_lib.sh, scripts/bootstrap.sh, scripts/install-launchd.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 345 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

World2Agent sensor management

You manage the user's W2A sensors. All host-side work is delegated to shell scripts in scripts/ — you never invoke the package manager, hermes webhook subscribe, jq mutations, curl calls, or YAML edits inline. Your job is:

  1. Decide which script to run, with which args.
  2. Run it via bash <abs-path> (the scripts ship without the executable bit).
  3. Parse the JSON the script prints on stdout — every script except log.sh emits exactly one JSON object, either {"ok":true,...} or {"ok":false,"error":"..."}.
  4. Branch on the result, ask the user when needed, generate handler content yourself when needed.

Script path

The canonical install location is ~/.hermes/skills/world2agent-manage/scripts/. A developer override via the WORLD2AGENT_MANAGE_SCRIPTS env var is honored in case you're testing against an unpacked checkout. Use this expansion in every invocation so both work in one line:

"${WORLD2AGENT_MANAGE_SCRIPTS:-$HOME/.hermes/skills/world2agent-manage/scripts}/<name>.sh"

(Examples below abbreviate this to $SCRIPTS/<name>.sh for readability.)

Conversation language

Run the entire Q&A in the user's current conversation language. Translate SETUP.md questions before asking. Don't dump English questions on a Chinese user, or vice versa.


Pre-flight: bootstrap

Before any sensor install or remove, call bootstrap.sh once. It is idempotent; second runs just confirm existing state.

bash "$SCRIPTS/bootstrap.sh"

What it does:

  • verifies world2agent-hermes-supervisor and world2agent-sensor-runner are on PATH;
  • creates / preserves ~/.world2agent/.bridge-state.json (hmac_secret / control_token / control_port, mode 0600);
  • enables Hermes's webhook platform via a managed config block (refuses if the user already has a hand-written top-level platforms: block);
  • mirrors the same secret into the Hermes runtime env file;
  • starts the supervisor (foreground, nohup-detached).

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.

world2agent-manage is a skill published in the GitHub repository machinepulse-ai/world2agent-plugins (5 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 70 tokens to every session and 3,040 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (recursive force delete, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
