A local search and routing guide for finding private project knowledge such as skills, scripts, runbooks, scheduled jobs, tool servers, and documentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when answering operational questions about installed tools, automation, maintenance jobs, service workflows, or internal documentation.
Why use it?
It helps an agent locate the correct internal source before guessing file paths or searching the whole project.

Token cost

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

local-knowledge-router 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 4d 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.

Local Knowledge Router

When to use

Use this skill before guessing paths or doing broad file searches when a user asks about local or private operational knowledge, including:

  • installed or custom Hermes skills and their support docs;
  • generated tool OKFs, runbooks, operational docs, and memory docs;
  • helper scripts and automation entry points;
  • cron jobs and scheduled maintenance;
  • MCP servers and wrapper scripts;
  • service workflows in the configured local source tree.

The plugin indexes whole artifacts. It identifies the first artifact to inspect; it does not replace reading that source.

Workflow

  1. Search for the user's intent:

    knowledge_search(query="backup runbook", limit=8)
    knowledge_search(query="paperless review automation", limit=8)
    knowledge_search(query="siyuan mcp wrapper", limit=8)
    
  2. Fetch the best artifact before acting:

    knowledge_get(artifact_id="skill:example-skill", include_neighbors=true)
    

    Use knowledge_neighbors separately when graph context will help:

    knowledge_neighbors(artifact_id="cron:daily-review", limit=20)
    
  3. Inspect the routed source of truth:

    • skill → load it with skill_view.
    • script → read the script and help text before running it.
    • tool_okf → use it as routing context, then inspect the live tool schema/docs before high-impact calls.
    • runbook, memory_doc, doc, or skill_support_doc → read the file before changing systems.
    • cron_job → verify the live cron registry before mutating jobs.
    • mcp_server → inspect the live wrapper/config before troubleshooting.
  4. Check freshness when it matters. Managed lookups rebuild an index that is missing, corrupt, older-format, or marked dirty by completed tool-OKF publication. They do not detect ordinary source-file, cron-registry, or MCP-config changes. When those changed recently or results look stale, force a rebuild:

    knowledge_search(query="new helper script", limit=8, rebuild=true)

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.
