* feat(skills): add osint-investigation optional skill (closes#355)
Phase-1 public-records OSINT investigation framework adapted from
ShinMegamiBoson/OpenPlanter (MIT). Lives in optional-skills/research/.
Six data-source wiki entries (FEC, SEC EDGAR, USAspending, Senate LD,
OFAC SDN, ICIJ Offshore Leaks), each following the 9-section template:
summary, access, schema, coverage, cross-reference keys, data quality,
acquisition, legal, references.
Six stdlib-only acquisition scripts that emit normalized CSV, plus three
analysis scripts:
- entity_resolution.py — three-tier match (exact / fuzzy / token overlap)
with explicit confidence per row
- timing_analysis.py — permutation test for donation/contract timing
correlation, joins through cross-links
- build_findings.py — assembles structured findings.json with
evidence chains pointing back to source rows
Validation: full pipeline runs end-to-end on synthetic fixtures. Entity
resolution found 24 cross-matches with 0 false positives on a 5-row /
4-row test set. Timing analysis on 5 donations clustered near 3 awards
returned p=0.000, effect size 2.41 SD. Findings JSON correctly tags
HIGH-severity timing pattern. All 9 scripts pass --help and py_compile.
Docs site page auto-generated by website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py;
sidebar + catalog entries updated by the same generator.
* fix(osint-investigation): live API fixes from end-to-end sweep
Live-tested the skill on a real public-citizen query and found three bugs
the synthetic E2E missed. All three are now fixed and re-verified.
1. FEC fetch hung on contributor name searches.
The combination of two_year_transaction_period + sort=date +
contributor_name puts the OpenFEC query plan on a slow path that the
upstream gateway times out (25s+). Switched to min_date/max_date with no
explicit sort. Renamed --candidate to --contributor (the original name
was misleading: FEC searches by donor, not by candidate; --candidate is
kept as a deprecated alias). Added --state filter for narrowing.
2. ICIJ Offshore Leaks reconcile endpoint returns 404.
ICIJ removed the Open Refine reconciliation API. Rewrote
fetch_icij_offshore.py to download the official bulk CSV ZIP (~70 MB,
public, no auth) and search it locally. Cached under
$HERMES_OSINT_CACHE/icij/ (default ~/.cache/hermes-osint/icij/) for
30 days, --force-refresh to refetch. Verified live: 'PUTIN' query
returns 5 Panama Papers officer matches in 0.5s after first download.
3. SEC EDGAR silently returned 0 when the company-name resolver matched
an individual Form 3/4/5 filer (insider trading disclosures).
Now surfaces 'Resolved company X → CIK Y (Z)' on stderr, prints a
filing-type histogram when the type filter wipes results, and
explicitly warns when the matched CIK appears to be an individual
filer rather than a corporate registrant.
Bonus: _http.py was retrying 429 responses with exponential backoff plus
honoring (often-missing) Retry-After headers, which compounded into
multi-second hangs per page when the upstream key was over quota.
Changed to fail-fast on 429 with a clear, actionable error showing the
upstream's quota message. Verified: 0.3s fast-fail vs the previous 60s
hang on DEMO_KEY rate-limit exhaustion.
Updated SKILL.md, fec.md, and icij-offshore.md to match the new CLI
flags and ICIJ bulk-cache flow. Regenerated the docusaurus page via
website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py.
Live sweep results across all 6 sources for 'Dillon Rolnick, New York':
- OFAC SDN: 0 matches ✓ (correctly not sanctioned)
- USAspending: 0 matches ✓ (correctly not a federal contractor)
- Senate LDA: 0 matches ✓ (correctly not a lobbying client)
- SEC EDGAR: warns it resolved to 'Rolnick Michael' (CIK 0001845264)
who is an individual Form 3 filer, not a corporate registrant
- ICIJ: 0 matches ✓ (correctly not in any offshore leak)
- FEC: rate-limited (DEMO_KEY); fails fast with clear quota message
* feat(osint-investigation): expand to 12 sources covering identity, property, courts, archives, news
Phase-2 expansion per Teknium feedback that the original 6-source skill
(federal financial/regulatory only) wasn't a complete OSINT toolkit. Adds
6 more sources covering the major omissions a real investigation would
reach for first.
New sources (6 fetch scripts + 6 wiki entries):
1. NYC ACRIS — Real property records (deeds, mortgages, liens) via the
city's Socrata API. Search by party name or property address. Joins
Parties to Master to populate doc_type, dates, borough, and amount.
Coverage: 5 NYC boroughs, ~70M party records, 1966-present.
2. OpenCorporates — Global corporate registry covering 130+ jurisdictions
(~200M companies). Free API token at
https://opencorporates.com/api_accounts/new raises the rate limit;
HTML fallback works without one (limited fields).
3. CourtListener (Free Law Project) — federal + state court opinions
(~10M back to colonial era) + PACER dockets via RECAP. Anonymous v4
search works; COURTLISTENER_TOKEN raises rate limits.
4. Wayback Machine CDX — historical web captures (~900B+). Used both for
surveillance-of-record (when did this site change?) and as a
content-recovery layer when other sources point to dead URLs.
5. Wikipedia + Wikidata — narrative bio + structured facts. Wikipedia
OpenSearch for article matching, REST summary for extracts, Wikidata
Action API (wbgetentities) for claims. Avoids the SPARQL Query
Service which is aggressively rate-limited.
6. GDELT 2.0 DOC API — global news monitoring in 100+ languages,
~2015-present. Auto-retries with 6s backoff on the standard
1-req-per-5-sec throttle.
Other changes in this commit:
- SEC EDGAR no longer raises SystemExit when the company-name resolver
finds no CIK; writes an empty CSV with header so the rest of a
pipeline can keep moving and the warning is just on stderr.
- _http.py User-Agent updated per Wikimedia policy: includes app name,
version, and a 'set HERMES_OSINT_UA to identify yourself' instruction.
- SKILL.md workflow now groups sources into two clusters (federal
financial vs identity/property/courts/archives/news) with bash
examples for each. 'When to use this skill' lists the broader set of
investigation patterns the expanded sources unlock.
Live sweep results on 'Dillon Rolnick, New York' across all 12 sources:
ofac ✓ 0 (correctly clean)
icij ✓ 0 (correctly not in any leak)
usaspending ✓ 0 (correctly not a federal contractor)
senate_lda ✓ 0 (correctly not a lobbying client)
sec_edgar ✓ 0, warns: resolved to 'Rolnick Michael' (CIK 0001845264),
individual Form 3 filer, NOT a corporate registrant
fec — rate-limited (DEMO_KEY exhausted), fails fast with
clear quota message
nyc_acris ✓ 200 records named Rolnick across NYC; 48 records at
571 Hudson (the property the web identifies as his)
opencorporates ✓ 0 (no API token configured; HTML fallback)
courtlistener ✓ 0 for 'Dillon Rolnick'; 20 for 'Rolnick' generally;
5 for 'Microsoft' sanity check
wayback ✓ 30 captures of nousresearch.com from 2011-present
wikipedia ✓ 0 (correctly not notable enough); Bill Gates sanity
returns full structured facts (occupation, employer,
DOB, place of birth, country)
gdelt ✓ 0 for 'Dillon Rolnick'; 5 for 'Nous Research'
All 17 scripts compile clean and pass --help. Synthetic analysis pipeline
regression still passes (entity_resolution 30 matches, timing p=0.000,
findings 2).
* feat(osint-investigation): remove FEC; DEMO_KEY rate-limits make it unreliable
The FEC fetcher consistently failed the live sweep because the OpenFEC
DEMO_KEY tier (40 calls/hour) exhausts on a single investigation, and
the upstream returns slow-path query plans for unindexed contributor-name
searches that the gateway times out. Without a real API key it's not
usable; with one the user has to sign up at api.data.gov first. That's
too much setup friction for a skill that should work out of the box.
Removed:
- scripts/fetch_fec.py
- references/sources/fec.md
Updated:
- SKILL.md frontmatter description + tags
- 'When NOT to use' now points users at https://www.fec.gov/data/ for
federal donations
- entity_resolution example switched from donor↔contractor to
lobbying-client↔contractor (Senate LDA + USAspending pair)
- timing_analysis example switched to lobbying-filings vs awards
- 8 wiki entries had their 'FEC ↔ ...' cross-reference bullets removed
11 sources remain (5 federal financial + 6 identity/property/courts/
archives/news). All scripts compile, pass --help, and the synthetic
analysis pipeline still passes on the new lobbying-shaped regression
fixture (30 matches, p=0.000 on tight clustering, 2 findings).
Zero-install localhost tunnels over SSH via Pinggy. Covers HTTP/HTTPS,
TCP, TLS, access control (basic auth / bearer / IP whitelist), header
manipulation (CORS, force-HTTPS), web debugger, Pro token mode, and four
composite recipes (webhook receiver, MCP server exposure, local LLM
endpoint share, dev-server quick-share with one-shot password).
Closes#361
Individual skill pages (e.g. /docs/user-guide/skills/bundled/productivity/notion)
had no sidebar rendered — the sidebar config only listed the two catalog index
pages. That was an intentional choice from an earlier 'too many entries would
drown product docs' concern, but the effect is that a user landing on any skill
page (via search, share link, or the catalog table) loses navigation entirely
and can't see related skills.
Wire build_sidebar_items() (which was already computed and discarded) back into
the sidebar. Structure:
Skills
├── Bundled skills catalog (catalog table, was already there)
├── Optional skills catalog (catalog table, was already there)
├── Bundled
│ ├── apple/
│ │ ├── apple-apple-notes
│ │ └── ...
│ └── ... (one collapsed category per skill category)
└── Optional
└── ... (same)
Categories are collapsed by default so the top-level Skills entry doesn't
explode visually. Users browsing one skill see siblings in the same category;
the catalogs remain the at-a-glance entry point.
Also includes drift the regen script naturally produces on top of current main:
- creative-comfyui v5.0.0 → v5.1.0 page (author + new ref file)
- devops-kanban-worker SKILL.md updates
- new pages for optional skills that lacked generated docs:
hyperliquid, finance-stocks, software-development/rest-graphql-debug
- updated optional-skills-catalog row for those
Validation:
- npx docusaurus build (en locale) succeeded — only pre-existing warnings
- inspected built productivity-notion/index.html: sidebar tree present,
sibling productivity skills (airtable, linear, etc.) all linked
Salvages the closed PR #2010 (Mibayy's EVM multi-chain skill) and folds the
existing optional-skills/blockchain/base/ skill into it, so we ship one
unified EVM skill instead of two overlapping ones.
Pulled in from base/:
- 8 missing Base-specific tokens (AERO, DEGEN, TOSHI, BRETT, WELL,
cbETH, cbBTC, wstETH, rETH) added to KNOWN_TOKENS['base'] —
base/ had 11, evm/ only had 3 (USDC/DAI/WETH).
- L1 data-fee pitfall note for rollups (Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, zkSync).
- Batch-size chunking in rpc_batch (Base RPC caps batches at 10 calls
per JSON-RPC request; adding more known tokens tripped that limit
and broke 'wallet --chain base' with a 'list index out of range'
error). Ported the chunking pattern from base/_rpc_batch_chunk.
Latent bugs found and fixed while smoke-testing the merge:
- cmd_multichain and cmd_allowance both iterated KNOWN_TOKENS[chain]
with 'for contract, (symbol, _name) in known.items()' — but the dict
shape is {symbol: contract_str}, not {addr: (sym, name)}. This raised
'too many values to unpack (expected 2)' on every non-zero balance.
Now iterates as 'for symbol, contract in known.items()'.
- Input validation: added is_valid_address / is_valid_txhash /
require_address / require_txhash helpers and wired them into
cmd_wallet, cmd_tx, cmd_token, cmd_activity, cmd_allowance,
cmd_decode, cmd_contract, cmd_multichain. Fails fast with exit 2
on malformed input instead of burning an RPC round-trip on garbage.
Documentation:
- SKILL.md now flags that this skill supersedes optional-skills/blockchain/base.
- Pitfalls expanded for ENS (single-endpoint dependency on
ensideas.com), tx decoding (single-endpoint dependency on
4byte.directory), and rollup L1 fees.
- Regenerated website/docs/user-guide/skills/optional/blockchain/
blockchain-evm.md and removed the old blockchain-base.md page;
catalog updated.
Removed:
- optional-skills/blockchain/base/SKILL.md
- optional-skills/blockchain/base/scripts/base_client.py
- website/docs/user-guide/skills/optional/blockchain/blockchain-base.md
Smoke-tested live against Base mainnet: stats, price, token, wallet
(vitalik.eth — 3.12 ETH + 13.88 USDC + 4.23 DAI + 0.06 WETH on Base)
and allowance (ethereum, 7 unlimited approvals to Uniswap/Permit2).
Original PR #2010 author: Mibayy.
Original base/ skill author: youssefea.
These skills require heavy GPU/CUDA stacks or are niche enough that they shouldn't
be active by default. Moved to optional-skills/ where users opt-in via
`hermes skills install official/...`.
Moved:
- mlops/training/axolotl
- mlops/training/trl-fine-tuning
- mlops/training/unsloth
- mlops/inference/outlines
Counts: 91 -> 87 built-in, 72 -> 76 optional.
Auto-regenerated docs (per-skill pages + catalogs) reflect the move.
* docs: deep audit — fix stale config keys, missing commands, and registry drift
Cross-checked ~80 high-impact docs pages (getting-started, reference, top-level
user-guide, user-guide/features) against the live registries:
hermes_cli/commands.py COMMAND_REGISTRY (slash commands)
hermes_cli/auth.py PROVIDER_REGISTRY (providers)
hermes_cli/config.py DEFAULT_CONFIG (config keys)
toolsets.py TOOLSETS (toolsets)
tools/registry.py get_all_tool_names() (tools)
python -m hermes_cli.main <subcmd> --help (CLI args)
reference/
- cli-commands.md: drop duplicate hermes fallback row + duplicate section,
add stepfun/lmstudio to --provider enum, expand auth/mcp/curator subcommand
lists to match --help output (status/logout/spotify, login, archive/prune/
list-archived).
- slash-commands.md: add missing /sessions and /reload-skills entries +
correct the cross-platform Notes line.
- tools-reference.md: drop bogus '68 tools' headline, drop fictional
'browser-cdp toolset' (these tools live in 'browser' and are runtime-gated),
add missing 'kanban' and 'video' toolset sections, fix MCP example to use
the real mcp_<server>_<tool> prefix.
- toolsets-reference.md: list browser_cdp/browser_dialog inside the 'browser'
row, add missing 'kanban' and 'video' toolset rows, drop the stale
'38 tools' count for hermes-cli.
- profile-commands.md: add missing install/update/info subcommands, document
fish completion.
- environment-variables.md: dedupe GMI_API_KEY/GMI_BASE_URL rows (kept the
one with the correct gmi-serving.com default).
- faq.md: Anthropic/Google/OpenAI examples — direct providers exist (not just
via OpenRouter), refresh the OpenAI model list.
getting-started/
- installation.md: PortableGit (not MinGit) is what the Windows installer
fetches; document the 32-bit MinGit fallback.
- installation.md / termux.md: installer prefers .[termux-all] then falls
back to .[termux].
- nix-setup.md: Python 3.12 (not 3.11), Node.js 22 (not 20); fix invalid
'nix flake update --flake' invocation.
- updating.md: 'hermes backup restore --state pre-update' doesn't exist —
point at the snapshot/quick-snapshot flow; correct config key
'updates.pre_update_backup' (was 'update.backup').
user-guide/
- configuration.md: api_max_retries default 3 (not 2); display.runtime_footer
is the real key (not display.runtime_metadata_footer); checkpoints defaults
enabled=false / max_snapshots=20 (not true / 50).
- configuring-models.md: 'hermes model list' / 'hermes model set ...' don't
exist — hermes model is interactive only.
- tui.md: busy_indicator -> tui_status_indicator with values
kaomoji|emoji|unicode|ascii (not kawaii|minimal|dots|wings|none).
- security.md: SSH backend keys (TERMINAL_SSH_HOST/USER/KEY) live in .env,
not config.yaml.
- windows-wsl-quickstart.md: there is no 'hermes api' subcommand — the
OpenAI-compatible API server runs inside hermes gateway.
user-guide/features/
- computer-use.md: approvals.mode (not security.approval_level); fix broken
./browser-use.md link to ./browser.md.
- fallback-providers.md: top-level fallback_providers (not
model.fallback_providers); the picker is subcommand-based, not modal.
- api-server.md: API_SERVER_* are env vars — write to per-profile .env,
not 'hermes config set' which targets YAML.
- web-search.md: drop web_crawl as a registered tool (it isn't); deep-crawl
modes are exposed through web_extract.
- kanban.md: failure_limit default is 2, not '~5'.
- plugins.md: drop hard-coded '33 providers' count.
- honcho.md: fix unclosed quote in echo HONCHO_API_KEY snippet; document
that 'hermes honcho' subcommand is gated on memory.provider=honcho;
reconcile subcommand list with actual --help output.
- memory-providers.md: legacy 'hermes honcho setup' redirect documented.
Verified via 'npm run build' — site builds cleanly; broken-link count went
from 149 to 146 (no regressions, fixed a few in passing).
* docs: round 2 audit fixes + regenerate skill catalogs
Follow-up to the previous commit on this branch:
Round 2 manual fixes:
- quickstart.md: KIMI_CODING_API_KEY mentioned alongside KIMI_API_KEY;
voice-mode and ACP install commands rewritten — bare 'pip install ...'
doesn't work for curl-installed setups (no pip on PATH, not in repo
dir); replaced with 'cd ~/.hermes/hermes-agent && uv pip install -e
".[voice]"'. ACP already ships in [all] so the curl install includes it.
- cli.md / configuration.md: 'auxiliary.compression.model' shown as
'google/gemini-3-flash-preview' (the doc's own claimed default);
actual default is empty (= use main model). Reworded as 'leave empty
(default) or pin a cheap model'.
- built-in-plugins.md: added the bundled 'kanban/dashboard' plugin row
that was missing from the table.
Regenerated skill catalogs:
- ran website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py to refresh all 163 per-skill
pages and both reference catalogs (skills-catalog.md,
optional-skills-catalog.md). This adds the entries that were genuinely
missing — productivity/teams-meeting-pipeline (bundled),
optional/finance/* (entire category — 7 skills:
3-statement-model, comps-analysis, dcf-model, excel-author, lbo-model,
merger-model, pptx-author), creative/hyperframes,
creative/kanban-video-orchestrator, devops/watchers,
productivity/shop-app, research/searxng-search,
apple/macos-computer-use — and rewrites every other per-skill page from
the current SKILL.md. Most diffs are tiny (one line of refreshed
metadata).
Validation:
- 'npm run build' succeeded.
- Broken-link count moved 146 -> 155 — the +9 are zh-Hans translation
shells that lag every newly-added skill page (pre-existing pattern).
No regressions on any en/ page.
Closes the remaining gaps from PR #11562 that weren't covered by the
core SearXNG integration landed in #20823.
- optional-skills/research/searxng-search/ — installable skill with
SKILL.md (curl-based usage, category support, Python example) and
searxng.sh helper script for health checks and instance queries
- website/docs/user-guide/configuration.md — SearXNG added to the
Web Search Backends section (5 backends, backend table, per-capability
split config example, correct search-only note)
- website/docs/reference/environment-variables.md — SEARXNG_URL row
- website/docs/reference/optional-skills-catalog.md — searxng-search entry
The core SearXNG code, OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, hermes tools picker, and tests
were already on main via #20823. This commit is purely additive docs +
the optional skill scaffold.
Credits from #11562 salvage:
@w4rum — original _searxng_search structure
@nathansdev — tools_config.py integration
@moyomartin — category support and result formatting
@0xMihai — config/env var approach
@nicobailon — skill and documentation structure
@searxng-fan — error handling patterns
@local-first — self-hosted-first philosophy and docs
* docs(sidebar): collapse exploding skills tree to a single Skills node
The Skills sub-tree in the left sidebar expanded to 200+ entries
(22 bundled categories + 15 optional categories, every skill a page).
That's most of the nav on a first visit — docs for the actual product
get drowned in it.
Collapse the sidebar to:
Skills
godmode (hand-written spotlight)
google-workspace (hand-written spotlight)
Bundled catalog (reference/skills-catalog — table of all bundled)
Optional catalog (reference/optional-skills-catalog — table of all optional)
Per-skill pages still generate and are still reachable at their URLs;
they're linked from the two catalog tables and from the Skills overview
page. They just don't appear in the left nav anymore.
sidebars.ts goes from 649 lines to 247. generate-skill-docs.py loses
the bundled/optional sidebar render helpers.
Also picks up incidental generator output drift on current main
(comfyui skill content refresh; 4 new skill pages for
devops-kanban-orchestrator, devops-kanban-worker,
productivity-here-now, productivity-shopify; two catalog refreshes).
These are what the generator produces on main today — keeping them
committed avoids the next docs build showing 'working tree dirty'.
* docs(sidebar): drop godmode and google-workspace spotlight pages
Keep the Skills sidebar node strictly principled: two catalog links,
nothing else. There was no rule for which skills got spotlight pages
and which got auto-generated pages — just that these two happened to
be hand-written first.
Both pages still build and are still reachable at
/docs/user-guide/skills/godmode and
/docs/user-guide/skills/google-workspace. They're linked from the
catalog tables and the Skills overview page.
Sidebar Skills node now:
Skills
├── Bundled catalog
└── Optional catalog
Generates a full dedicated Docusaurus page for every one of the 132 skills
(73 bundled + 59 optional) under website/docs/user-guide/skills/{bundled,optional}/<category>/.
Each page carries the skill's description, metadata (version, author, license,
dependencies, platform gating, tags, related skills cross-linked to their own
pages), and the complete SKILL.md body that Hermes loads at runtime.
Previously the two catalog pages just listed skills with a one-line blurb and
no way to see what the skill actually did — users had to go read the source
repo. Now every skill has a browsable, searchable, cross-linked reference in
the docs.
- website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py — generator that reads skills/ and
optional-skills/, writes per-skill pages, regenerates both catalog indexes,
and rewrites the Skills section of sidebars.ts. Handles MDX escaping
(outside fenced code blocks: curly braces, unsafe HTML-ish tags) and
rewrites relative references/*.md links to point at the GitHub source.
- website/docs/reference/skills-catalog.md — regenerated; each row links to
the new dedicated page.
- website/docs/reference/optional-skills-catalog.md — same.
- website/sidebars.ts — Skills section now has Bundled / Optional subtrees
with one nested category per skill folder.
- .github/workflows/{docs-site-checks,deploy-site}.yml — run the generator
before docusaurus build so CI stays in sync with the source SKILL.md files.
Build verified locally with `npx docusaurus build`. Only remaining warnings
are pre-existing broken link/anchor issues in unrelated pages.
* fix(docs): unbreak ascii-guard lint on github-pr-review-agent diagram
The intro diagram used 4 side-by-side boxes in one row. ascii-guard can't
parse that layout — it reads the whole thing as one 80-wide outer box and
flags the inner box borders at columns 17/39/60 as 'extra characters after
right border'. Per the ascii-guard-lint-fixing skill, the only fix is to
merge into a single outer box.
Rewritten as one 69-char outer box with four labeled regions separated by
arrows. Same semantic content, lint-clean.
Was blocking docs-site-checks CI as 'action_required' across multiple PRs
(see e.g. run 24661820677).
* fix(docs): backtick-wrap `<1%` to avoid MDX JSX parse error
Docusaurus MDX parses `<1%` as the start of a JSX tag, but `1` isn't a
valid tag-name start so compilation fails with 'Unexpected character `1`
(U+0031) before name'. Wrap in backticks so MDX treats it as literal code
text.
Found by running Build Docusaurus step on the PR that unblocked the
ascii-guard step; full docs tree scanned for other `<digit>` patterns
outside backticks/fences, only this one was unsafe.
- Remove orphan skills/creative/touchdesigner/references/pitfalls.md
left over from the rename commit (git add-then-edit instead of git mv
meant the old file never got deleted).
- Honour $HERMES_HOME in setup.sh and SKILL.md setup invocation so
profile-aware installs work correctly.
- Fix troubleshooting.md config path to use $HERMES_HOME instead of
hardcoding ~/.hermes/.
- Add touchdesigner-mcp entries to skills-catalog.md and
optional-skills-catalog.md for parity with blender-mcp/meme-generation.
Comprehensive audit of every reference/messaging/feature doc page against the
live code registries (PROVIDER_REGISTRY, OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, COMMAND_REGISTRY,
TOOLSETS, tool registry, on-disk skills). Every fix was verified against code
before writing.
### Wrong values fixed (users would paste-and-fail)
- reference/environment-variables.md:
- DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL default was `coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1` \u2192
actual `dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`.
- MINIMAX_BASE_URL and MINIMAX_CN_BASE_URL defaults were `/v1` \u2192 actual
`/anthropic` (Hermes calls MiniMax via its Anthropic Messages endpoint).
- reference/toolsets-reference.md MCP example used the non-existent nested
`mcp: servers:` key \u2192 real key is the flat `mcp_servers:`.
- reference/skills-catalog.md listed ~20 bundled skills that no longer exist
on disk (all moved to `optional-skills/`). Regenerated the whole bundled
section from `skills/**/SKILL.md` \u2014 79 skills, accurate paths and names.
- messaging/slack.md ":::info" callout claimed Slack has no
`free_response_channels` equivalent; both the env var and the yaml key are
in fact read.
- messaging/qqbot.md documented `QQ_MARKDOWN_SUPPORT` as an env var, but the
adapter only reads `extra.markdown_support` from config.yaml. Removed the
env var row and noted config-only nature.
- messaging/qqbot.md `hermes setup gateway` \u2192 `hermes gateway setup`.
### Missing coverage added
- Providers: AWS Bedrock and Qwen Portal (qwen-oauth) \u2014 both in
PROVIDER_REGISTRY but undocumented everywhere. Added sections to
integrations/providers.md, rows to quickstart.md and fallback-providers.md.
- integrations/providers.md "Fallback Model" provider list now includes
gemini, google-gemini-cli, qwen-oauth, xai, nvidia, ollama-cloud, bedrock.
- reference/cli-commands.md `--provider` enum and HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER
enum in env-vars now include the same set.
- reference/slash-commands.md: added `/agents` (alias `/tasks`) and `/copy`.
Removed duplicate rows for `/snapshot`, `/fast` (\u00d72), `/debug`.
- reference/tools-reference.md: fixed "47 built-in tools" \u2192 52. Added
`feishu_doc` and `feishu_drive` toolset sections.
- reference/toolsets-reference.md: added `feishu_doc` / `feishu_drive` core
rows + all missing `hermes-<platform>` toolsets in the platform table
(bluebubbles, dingtalk, feishu, qqbot, wecom, wecom-callback, weixin,
homeassistant, webhook, gateway). Fixed the `debugging` composite to
describe the actual `includes=[...]` mechanism.
- reference/optional-skills-catalog.md: added `fitness-nutrition`.
- reference/environment-variables.md: added NOUS_BASE_URL,
NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL, NVIDIA_API_KEY/BASE_URL, OLLAMA_API_KEY/BASE_URL,
XAI_API_KEY/BASE_URL, MISTRAL_API_KEY, AWS_REGION/AWS_PROFILE,
BEDROCK_BASE_URL, HERMES_QWEN_BASE_URL, DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS,
DISCORD_PROXY, TELEGRAM_REPLY_TO_MODE, MATRIX_DEVICE_ID, MATRIX_REACTIONS,
QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME, QQ_SANDBOX.
- messaging/discord.md: documented DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS, DISCORD_PROXY,
HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS and HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_SPLIT
_DELAY_SECONDS (all actively read by the adapter).
- messaging/matrix.md: documented MATRIX_REACTIONS (default true).
- messaging/telegram.md: removed the redundant second Webhook Mode section
that invented a `telegram.webhook_mode: true` yaml key the adapter does
not read.
- user-guide/features/hooks.md: added `on_session_finalize` and
`on_session_reset` (both emitted via invoke_hook but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/api-server.md: documented GET /health/detailed, the
`/api/jobs/*` CRUD surface, POST /v1/runs, and GET /v1/runs/{id}/events
(10 routes that were live but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: added `approval` and
`title_generation` auxiliary-task rows; added gemini, bedrock, qwen-oauth
to the supported-providers table.
- user-guide/features/tts.md: "seven providers" \u2192 "eight" (post-xAI add
oversight in #11942).
- user-guide/configuration.md: TTS provider enum gains `xai` and `gemini`;
yaml example block gains `mistral:`, `gemini:`, `xai:` subsections.
Auxiliary-provider enum now enumerates all real registry entries.
- reference/faq.md: stale AIAgent/config examples bumped from
`nous/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b` and `claude-sonnet-4.6` to
`claude-opus-4.7`.
### Docs-site integrity
- guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md referenced two nonexistent hooks
(`pre_api_request`, `post_api_request`). Replaced with the real
`on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset` entries.
- messaging/open-webui.md and features/api-server.md had pre-existing
broken links to `/docs/user-guide/features/profiles` (actual path is
`/docs/user-guide/profiles`). Fixed.
- reference/skills-catalog.md had one `<1%` literal that MDX parsed as a
JSX tag. Escaped to `<1%`.
### False positives filtered out (not changed, verified correct)
- `/set-home` is a registered alias of `/sethome` \u2014 docs were fine.
- `hermes setup gateway` is valid syntax (`hermes setup \<section\>`);
changed in qqbot.md for cross-doc consistency, not as a bug fix.
- Telegram reactions "disabled by default" matches code (default `"false"`).
- Matrix encryption "opt-in" matches code (empty env default \u2192 disabled).
- `pre_api_request` / `post_api_request` hooks do NOT exist in current code;
documented instead the real `on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset`.
- SIGNAL_IGNORE_STORIES is already in env-vars.md (subagent missed it).
Validation:
- `docusaurus build` \u2014 passes (only pre-existing nix-setup anchor warning).
- `ascii-guard lint docs` \u2014 124 files, 0 errors.
- 22 files changed, +317 / \u2212158.
Three tightly-scoped built-in skill consolidations to reduce redundancy in
the available_skills listing injected into every system prompt:
1. gguf-quantization → llama-cpp (merged)
GGUF is llama.cpp's format; two skills covered the same toolchain. The
merged llama-cpp skill keeps the full K-quant table + imatrix workflow
from gguf and the ROCm/benchmarks/supported-models sections from the
original llama-cpp. All 5 reference files preserved.
2. grpo-rl-training → fine-tuning-with-trl (folded in)
GRPO isn't a framework, it's a trainer inside TRL. Moved the 17KB
deep-dive SKILL.md to references/grpo-training.md and the working
template to templates/basic_grpo_training.py. TRL's GRPO workflow
section now points to both. Atropos skill's related_skills updated.
3. guidance → optional-skills/mlops/
Dropped from built-in. Outlines (still built-in) covers the same
structured-generation ground with wider adoption. Listed in the
optional catalog for users who specifically want Guidance.
Net: 3 fewer built-in skill lines in every system prompt, zero content
loss. Contributor authorship preserved via git rename detection.
- add code-derived reference pages for slash commands, tools, toolsets,
bundled skills, and official optional skills
- document the skin system and link visual theming separately from
conversational personality
- refresh quickstart, configuration, environment variable, and messaging
docs to match current provider, gateway, and browser behavior
- fix stale command, session, and Home Assistant configuration guidance
