Adds an optional skill that walks users through installing and using
alibaba/page-agent — a pure-JS in-page GUI agent that web developers
embed into their own webapps so end users can drive the UI with
natural language.
Three install paths: CDN demo (30s, no install), npm install into an
existing app with provider config table (Qwen/OpenAI/Ollama/OpenRouter),
and clone-from-source for dev/contributor workflow.
Clear use-case framing up front (embed AI copilot in SaaS/admin/B2B,
modernize legacy UIs, accessibility via natural language) and an
explicit NOT-for list that points users wanting server-side browser
automation back to Hermes' built-in browser tool.
Live-verified: repo builds on Node 22.22 + npm 10.9, dev:demo serves
at localhost:5174, API surface (new PageAgent{...}, panel.show(),
execute(task)) matches what the skill documents. Also verified
discovery end-to-end via OptionalSkillSource with isolated
HERMES_HOME — search/inspect/fetch all resolve
official/web-development/page-agent correctly.
New category directory: optional-skills/web-development/ with a
DESCRIPTION.md explaining the distinction from Hermes' own browser
automation (outside-in vs inside-out).
Adds a structured adversarial UX testing skill that roleplays the
worst-case user for any product. Uses a 6-step workflow:
1. Define a specific grumpy persona (age 50+, tech-resistant)
2. Browse the app in-character attempting real tasks
3. Write visceral in-character feedback (the Rant)
4. Apply a pragmatism filter (RED/YELLOW/WHITE/GREEN classification)
5. Create tickets only for real issues (RED + GREEN)
6. Deliver a structured report with screenshots
The pragmatism filter is the key differentiator - it prevents raw
persona complaints from becoming tickets, separating genuine UX
problems from "I hate computers" noise.
Includes example personas for 8 industry verticals and practical
tips from real-world testing sessions.

Rewires @LVT382009's disk-guardian (PR #12212) from a skill-plus-script
into a plugin that runs entirely via hooks — no agent compliance needed.
- post_tool_call hook auto-tracks files created by write_file / terminal
/ patch when they match test_/tmp_/*.test.* patterns under HERMES_HOME
- on_session_end hook runs cmd_quick cleanup when test files were
auto-tracked during the turn; stays quiet otherwise
- /disk-guardian slash command keeps status / dry-run / quick / deep /
track / forget for manual use
- Deterministic cleanup rules, path safety, atomic writes, and audit
logging preserved from the original contribution
- Protect well-known top-level state dirs (logs/, memories/, sessions/,
cron/, cache/, etc.) from empty-dir removal so fresh installs don't
get gutted on first session end
The plugin system gains a bundled-plugin discovery path (<repo>/plugins/
<name>/) alongside user/project/entry-point sources. Memory and
context_engine subdirs are skipped — they keep their own discovery
paths. HERMES_DISABLE_BUNDLED_PLUGINS=1 suppresses the scan; the test
conftest sets it by default so existing plugin tests stay clean.

Merges pixel-art-arcade and pixel-art-snes into one pixel-art skill with
named presets (arcade, snes) + parametric overrides. The underlying
pipeline was already identical across both variants — only palette size,
block size, and enhancement strength differed. A single preset-based
function is easier to discover, maintain, and extend (adding a new era
like gameboy or nes is just another preset dict).
Contributor authorship preserved on original additive commit.
find-nearby and the (new) maps optional skill both used OpenStreetMap's
Overpass + Nominatim to answer the same question — 'what's near this
location?' — so shipping both would be duplicate code for overlapping
capability. Consolidate into one active-by-default skill at
skills/productivity/maps/ that is a strict superset of find-nearby.
Moves + deletions:
- optional-skills/productivity/maps/ → skills/productivity/maps/ (active,
no install step needed)
- skills/leisure/find-nearby/ → DELETED (fully superseded)
Upgrades to maps_client.py so it covers everything find-nearby did:
- Overpass server failover — tries overpass-api.de then
overpass.kumi.systems so a single-mirror outage doesn't break the skill
(new overpass_query helper, used by both nearby and bbox)
- nearby now accepts --near "<address>" as a shortcut that auto-geocodes,
so one command replaces the old 'search → copy coords → nearby' chain
- nearby now accepts --category (repeatable) for multi-type queries in
one call (e.g. --category restaurant --category bar), results merged
and deduped by (osm_type, osm_id), sorted by distance, capped at --limit
- Each nearby result now includes maps_url (clickable Google Maps search
link) and directions_url (Google Maps directions from the search point
— only when a ref point is known)
- Promoted commonly-useful OSM tags to top-level fields on each result:
cuisine, hours (opening_hours), phone, website — instead of forcing
callers to dig into the raw tags dict
SKILL.md:
- Version bumped 1.1.0 → 1.2.0, description rewritten to lead with
capability surface
- New 'Working With Telegram Location Pins' section replacing
find-nearby's equivalent workflow
- metadata.hermes.supersedes: [find-nearby] so tooling can flag any
lingering references to the old skill
External references updated:
- optional-skills/productivity/telephony/SKILL.md — related_skills
find-nearby → maps
- website/docs/reference/skills-catalog.md — removed the (now-empty)
'leisure' section, added 'maps' row under productivity
- website/docs/user-guide/features/cron.md — find-nearby example
usages swapped to maps
- tests/tools/test_cronjob_tools.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_cron.py,
tests/cron/test_scheduler.py — fixture string values swapped
- cli.py:5290 — /cron help-hint example swapped
Not touched:
- RELEASE_v0.2.0.md — historical record, left intact
E2E-verified live (Nominatim + Overpass, one query each):
- nearby --near "Times Square" --category restaurant --category bar → 3 results,
sorted by distance, all with maps_url, directions_url, cuisine, phone, website
where OSM had the tags
All 111 targeted tests pass across tests/cron/, tests/tools/, tests/hermes_cli/.
Adds a maps optional skill with 8 commands, 44 POI categories, and
zero external dependencies. Uses free open data: Nominatim, Overpass
API, OSRM, and TimeAPI.io.
Commands: search, reverse, nearby, distance, directions, timezone,
area, bbox.
Improvements over original PR #2015:
- Fixed directory structure (optional-skills/productivity/maps/)
- Fixed distance argparse (--to flag instead of broken dual nargs=+)
- Fixed timezone (TimeAPI.io instead of broken worldtimeapi heuristic)
- Expanded POI categories from 12 to 44
- Added directions command with turn-by-turn OSRM steps
- Added area command (bounding box + dimensions for a named place)
- Added bbox command (POI search within a geographic rectangle)
- Added 23 unit tests
- Improved haversine (atan2 for numerical stability)
- Comprehensive SKILL.md with workflow examples

Setup wizard now always writes dialecticCadence=2 on new configs and
surfaces the reasoning level as an explicit step with all five options
(minimal / low / medium / high / max), always writing
dialecticReasoningLevel.
Code keeps a backwards-compat fallback of 1 when dialecticCadence is
unset so existing honcho.json configs that predate the setting keep
firing every turn on upgrade. New setups via the wizard get 2
explicitly; docs show 2 as the default.
Also scrubs editorial lines from code and docs ("max is reserved for
explicit tool-path selection", "Unset → every turn; wizard pre-fills 2",
and similar process-exposing phrasing) and adds an inline link to
app.honcho.dev where the server-side observation sync is mentioned in
honcho.md. Recommended cadence range updated to 1-5 across docs and
wizard copy.
- cli: setup wizard pre-fills dialecticCadence=2 (code default stays 1
so unset → every turn)
- honcho.md: fix stale dialecticCadence default in tables, add
Session-Start Prewarm subsection (depth runs at init), add
Query-Adaptive Reasoning Level subsection, expand Observation
section with directional vs unified semantics and per-peer patterns
- memory-providers.md: fix stale default, rename Multi-agent/Profiles
to Multi-peer setup, add concrete walkthrough for new profiles and
sync, document observation toggles + presets, link to honcho.md
- SKILL.md: fix stale defaults, add Depth at session start callout
- Revert website/docs and SKILL.md changes; docs unification handled separately
- Scrub commit/PR refs and process narration from code comments and test
docstrings (no behavior change)
Several correctness and cost-safety fixes to the Honcho dialectic path
after a multi-turn investigation surfaced a chain of silent failures:
- dialecticCadence default flipped 3 → 1. PR #10619 changed this from 1 to
3 for cost, but existing installs with no explicit config silently went
from per-turn dialectic to every-3-turns on upgrade. Restores pre-#10619
behavior; 3+ remains available for cost-conscious setups. Docs + wizard
+ status output updated to match.
- Session-start prewarm now consumed. Previously fired a .chat() on init
whose result landed in HonchoSessionManager._dialectic_cache and was
never read — pop_dialectic_result had zero call sites. Turn 1 paid for
a duplicate synchronous dialectic. Prewarm now writes directly to the
plugin's _prefetch_result via _prefetch_lock so turn 1 consumes it with
no extra call.
- Prewarm is now dialecticDepth-aware. A single-pass prewarm can return
weak output on cold peers; the multi-pass audit/reconcile cycle is
exactly the case dialecticDepth was built for. Prewarm now runs the
full configured depth in the background.
- Silent dialectic failure no longer burns the cadence window.
_last_dialectic_turn now advances only when the result is non-empty.
Empty result → next eligible turn retries immediately instead of
waiting the full cadence gap.
- Thread pile-up guard. queue_prefetch skips when a prior dialectic
thread is still in-flight, preventing stacked races on _prefetch_result.
- First-turn sync timeout is recoverable. Previously on timeout the
background thread's result was stored in a dead local list. Now the
thread writes into _prefetch_result under lock so the next turn
picks it up.
- Cadence gate applies uniformly. At cadence=1 the old "cadence > 1"
guard let first-turn sync + same-turn queue_prefetch both fire.
Gate now always applies.
- Restored query-length reasoning-level scaling, dropped in 9a0ab34c.
Scales dialecticReasoningLevel up on longer queries (+1 at ≥120 chars,
+2 at ≥400), clamped at reasoningLevelCap. Two new config keys:
`reasoningHeuristic` (bool, default true) and `reasoningLevelCap`
(string, default "high"; previously parsed but never enforced).
Respects dialecticDepthLevels and proportional lighter-early passes.
- Restored short-prompt skip, dropped in ef7f3156. One-word
acknowledgements ("ok", "y", "thanks") and slash commands bypass
both injection and dialectic fire.
- Purged dead code in session.py: prefetch_dialectic, _dialectic_cache,
set_dialectic_result, pop_dialectic_result — all unused after prewarm
refactor.
Tests: 542 passed across honcho_plugin/, agent/test_memory_provider.py,
and run_agent/test_run_agent.py. New coverage:
- TestTrivialPromptHeuristic (classifier + prefetch/queue skip)
- TestDialecticCadenceAdvancesOnSuccess (empty-result retry, pile-up guard)
- TestSessionStartDialecticPrewarm (prewarm consumed, sync fallback)
- TestReasoningHeuristic (length bumps, cap clamp, interaction with depth)
- TestDialecticLifecycleSmoke (end-to-end 8-turn session walk)
Discovered while dogfooding the skill end-to-end:
- pgrep -if "TouchDesigner" matched any shell whose command line
contained the substring (including the setup script's own invocation
under certain wrappers), falsely reporting TD running on machines
where it isn't. Switch to pgrep -x (exact process name match,
supported on both macOS and Linux) and also check TouchDesignerFTE
(the non-commercial variant).
- The embedded python3 yaml-writer printed 'added' / 'exists' to
stdout as status, which leaked a stray word into the setup output
right before the ✔ line. Drop the print()s — the bash-level ✔/✘ is
the status indicator.
- 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.
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.
Previous pass assumed both skills would always be loaded together, so
each description pointed at the other ('use concept-diagrams instead').
That breaks when only one skill is active — the agent reads 'use the
other skill' and there is no other skill.
Now each skill's description and scope section is fully self-contained:
- States what it's best suited for
- Lists subjects where a more specialized skill (if available) would be
a better fit, naming them only as 'consider X if available'
- Explicitly offers itself as a general SVG diagram fallback when no
more specialized skill exists
An agent loading either skill alone gets unambiguous guidance; an
agent with both loaded still gets useful routing via the 'consider X
if available' hints and the related_skills metadata.
Both skills generate SVG system diagrams, but for very different subjects
and aesthetics. The old descriptions didn't make the split clear, so an
agent loading either one couldn't confidently pick.
Changes:
- Rewrote both frontmatter descriptions to state the scope up front plus
an explicit 'for X, use the other skill instead' pointer.
- Added a symmetric 'When to use this skill vs <other>' decision table
to the top of each SKILL.md body, so the guidance is visible whether
the agent is reading frontmatter or full content.
- Added architecture-diagram <-> concept-diagrams to each other's
related_skills metadata.
Rule of thumb baked into both skills:
software/cloud infra -> architecture-diagram
physical / scientific / educational -> concept-diagrams
Salvage of PR #11045 (original by v1k22). Changes on top of the
original commit:
- Rename 'architecture-visualization-svg-diagrams' -> 'concept-diagrams'
to differentiate from the existing architecture-diagram skill.
architecture-diagram stays as the dark-themed Cocoon-style option for
software/infra; concept-diagrams covers physics, chemistry, math,
engineering, physical objects, and educational visuals.
- Trigger description scoped to actual use cases; removed the 'always
use this skill' language and long phrase-capture list to stop
colliding with architecture-diagram, excalidraw, generative-widgets,
manim-video.
- Default output is now a standalone self-contained HTML file (works
offline, no server). The preview server is opt-in and no longer part
of the default workflow.
- When the server IS used: bind to 127.0.0.1 instead of 0.0.0.0 (was a
LAN exposure hazard on shared networks) and let the OS pick a free
ephemeral port instead of hard-coding 22223 (collision prone).
- Shrink SKILL.md from 1540 to 353 lines by extracting reusable
material into linked files:
- templates/template.html (host page with full CSS design system)
- references/physical-shape-cookbook.md
- references/infrastructure-patterns.md
- references/dashboard-patterns.md
All 15 examples kept intact.
- Add dhandhalyabhavik@gmail.com -> v1k22 to AUTHOR_MAP.
Preserves v1k22's authorship on the underlying commit.
- SKILL.md with full SVG design system (color palette, typography, spacing, dark mode)
- 15 example diagrams covering flowcharts, physical structures, chemistry, charts, floor plans, and more
- Supports 8 diagram types: flowchart, structural, API map, microservice, data flow, physical, infrastructure, UI mockups
- Auto-hosts diagrams on 0.0.0.0:22223 as interactive web pages
Cherry-picked from PR #9177 by @haileymarshall.
Adds a fitness and nutrition skill for gym-goers and health-conscious users:
- Exercise search via wger API (690+ exercises, free, no auth)
- Nutrition lookup via USDA FoodData Central (380K+ foods, DEMO_KEY fallback)
- Offline body composition calculators (BMI, TDEE, 1RM, macros, body fat %)
- Pure stdlib Python, no pip dependencies
Changes from original PR:
- Moved from skills/ to optional-skills/health/ (correct location)
- Fixed BMR formula in FORMULAS.md (removed confusing -5+10, now just +5)
- Fixed author attribution to match PR submitter
- Marked USDA_API_KEY as optional (DEMO_KEY works without signup)
Also adds optional env var support to the skill readiness checker:
- New 'optional: true' field in required_environment_variables entries
- Optional vars are preserved in metadata but don't block skill readiness
- Optional vars skip the CLI capture prompt flow
- Skills with only optional missing vars show as 'available' not 'setup_needed'
Remove the backward-compat code paths that read compression provider/model
settings from legacy config keys and env vars, which caused silent failures
when auto-detection resolved to incompatible backends.
What changed:
- Remove compression.summary_model, summary_provider, summary_base_url from
DEFAULT_CONFIG and cli.py defaults
- Remove backward-compat block in _resolve_task_provider_model() that read
from the legacy compression section
- Remove _get_auxiliary_provider() and _get_auxiliary_env_override() helper
functions (AUXILIARY_*/CONTEXT_* env var readers)
- Remove env var fallback chain for per-task overrides
- Update hermes config show to read from auxiliary.compression
- Add config migration (v16→17) that moves non-empty legacy values to
auxiliary.compression and strips the old keys
- Update example config and openclaw migration script
- Remove/update tests for deleted code paths
Compression model/provider is now configured exclusively via:
auxiliary.compression.provider / auxiliary.compression.model
Closes#8923
Remove auto-archival from hermes claw migrate — not its
responsibility (hermes claw cleanup is still there for that).
Skip MESSAGING_CWD when it points inside the OpenClaw source
directory, which was the actual root cause of agent confusion
after migration. Use Path.is_relative_to() for robust path
containment check.

- Add rebrand_text() that replaces OpenClaw, Open Claw, Open-Claw,
ClawdBot, and MoltBot with Hermes (case-insensitive, word-boundary)
- Apply rebranding to memory entries (MEMORY.md, USER.md, daily memory)
- Apply rebranding to SOUL.md and workspace instructions via new
transform parameter on copy_file()
- Fix moldbot -> moltbot typo across codebase (claw.py, migration
script, docs, tests)
- Add unit tests for rebrand_text and integration tests for memory
and soul migration rebranding
Consolidates fixes from PRs #7869, #7860, #7861, #7862, #7864, #7868.
OpenClaw restructured several internal paths and config schemas that the
migration tool was reading from stale locations:
- workspace/ renamed to workspace-main/ (and workspace-{agentId} for
multi-agent). source_candidate() now checks fallback paths.
- Channel tokens moved from channels.*.botToken to
channels.*.accounts.default.botToken. New _get_channel_field() checks
both flat and accounts.default layout.
- TTS provider 'edge' renamed to 'microsoft'. Migration now checks both
and normalizes back to 'edge' for Hermes.
- API keys stored in openclaw.json 'env' sub-object (env.<KEY> or
env.vars.<KEY>) are now discovered as an additional key source.
- Provider apiType values now hyphenated (openai-completions,
anthropic-messages, google-generative-ai). thinkingDefault expanded
with minimal, xhigh, adaptive.
- Matrix uses accessToken field, not botToken.
- SecretRef file/exec sources now warn instead of silently skipping.
- Migration notes now mention skills requiring session restart and
WhatsApp requiring QR re-pairing.

Index codebases with GitNexus and serve an interactive knowledge
graph web UI via Cloudflare tunnel. No sudo required.
Includes:
- Full setup/build/serve/tunnel pipeline
- Zero-dependency Node.js reverse proxy script
- Pitfalls section covering cloudflared config conflicts,
Vite allowedHosts, Claude Code artifact cleanup, and
browser memory limits for large repos
After migrating from OpenClaw, leftover workspace directories contain
state files (todo.json, sessions, logs) that confuse the agent — it
discovers them and reads/writes to stale locations instead of the
Hermes state directory, causing issues like cron jobs reading a
different todo list than interactive sessions.
Changes:
- hermes claw migrate now offers to archive the source directory after
successful migration (rename to .pre-migration, not delete)
- New `hermes claw cleanup` subcommand for users who already migrated
and need to archive leftover OpenClaw directories
- Migration notes updated with explicit cleanup guidance
- 42 tests covering all new functionality
Reported by SteveSkedasticity — multiple todo.json files across
~/.hermes/, ~/.openclaw/workspace/, and ~/.openclaw/workspace-assistant/
caused cron jobs to read from wrong locations.
* feat(gateway): skill-aware slash commands, paginated /commands, Telegram 100-cap
Map active skills to Telegram's slash command menu so users can
discover and invoke skills directly. Three changes:
1. Telegram menu now includes active skill commands alongside built-in
commands, capped at 100 entries (Telegram Bot API limit). Overflow
commands remain callable but hidden from the picker. Logged at
startup when cap is hit.
2. New /commands [page] gateway command for paginated browsing of all
commands + skills. /help now shows first 10 skill commands and
points to /commands for the full list.
3. When a user types a slash command that matches a disabled or
uninstalled skill, they get actionable guidance:
- Disabled: 'Enable it with: hermes skills config'
- Optional (not installed): 'Install with: hermes skills install official/<path>'
Built on ideas from PR #3921 by @kshitijk4poor.
* chore: move 21 niche skills to optional-skills
Move specialized/niche skills from built-in (skills/) to optional
(optional-skills/) to reduce the default skill count. Users can
install them with: hermes skills install official/<category>/<name>
Moved skills (21):
- mlops: accelerate, chroma, faiss, flash-attention,
hermes-atropos-environments, huggingface-tokenizers, instructor,
lambda-labs, llava, nemo-curator, pinecone, pytorch-lightning,
qdrant, saelens, simpo, slime, tensorrt-llm, torchtitan
- research: domain-intel, duckduckgo-search
- devops: inference-sh cli
Built-in skills: 96 → 75
Optional skills: 22 → 43
* fix: only include repo built-in skills in Telegram menu, not user-installed
User-installed skills (from hub or manually added) stay accessible via
/skills and by typing the command directly, but don't get registered
in the Telegram slash command picker. Only skills whose SKILL.md is
under the repo's skills/ directory are included in the menu.
This keeps the Telegram menu focused on the curated built-in set while
user-installed skills remain discoverable through /skills and /commands.
migrate_model_config() was writing `config["model"] = model_str` which
replaces the entire model dict (default, provider, base_url) with a
bare string. This causes 'str' object has no attribute 'get' errors
throughout Hermes when any code does model_cfg.get("default").
Now preserves the existing model dict and only updates the "default"
key, keeping provider/base_url intact.

- scrapling (optional-skills/research/): Intelligent web scraping skill
using the Scrapling library — anti-bot fetching, Cloudflare bypass,
CSS/XPath selectors, spider framework for multi-page crawling.
Placed in optional-skills/ (not bundled) since both are niche tools

parallel-cli is a paid third-party vendor skill that requires
PARALLEL_API_KEY, but it was shipped in the default skills/ directory
with no env-var gate. This caused it to appear in every user's system
prompt even when they have no Parallel account or API key.
Move it to optional-skills/ so it is only visible through the Skills
Hub and must be explicitly installed. Also remove it from the default
skills catalog docs.
Docker CLI reference covering containers, images, Compose, volumes,

* feat(migration): comprehensive OpenClaw -> Hermes migration v2
Extends the existing migration script from ~15% to ~95% coverage of
OpenClaw's configuration surface. Adds 17 new migration modules:
Direct migrations (written to config.yaml/.env):
- MCP servers: full server definitions with transport, tools, sampling
- Agent defaults: reasoning_effort, compression, human_delay, timezone
- Session config: reset triggers (daily/idle) -> session_reset
- Full model providers: custom_providers with base_url/api_mode
- Deep channel config: Matrix, Mattermost, IRC, Discord deep settings
- Browser config: timeout settings
- Tools config: exec timeout -> terminal.timeout
- Approvals: mode mapping (smart/manual/auto -> Hermes equivalents)
Archived for manual review (no direct Hermes equivalent):
- Plugins config + installed extensions
- Cron jobs (with note to use 'hermes cron')
- Hooks/webhooks config
- Multi-agent list + routing bindings
- Gateway config (port, auth, TLS)
- Memory backend config (QMD, vector search)
- Skills registry per-entry config
- UI/identity settings
- Logging/diagnostics preferences
Also adds:
- MIGRATION_NOTES.md generation with PM2 reassurance message
- _set_env_var helper for consistent env file management
- Updated presets to include all new options
- Comprehensive mock test passing (12 migrated, 12 archived)
* feat(migration): add terminal recap with visual summary
Replaces raw JSON dump with a formatted box showing migrated/archived/
skipped/conflict/error counts, detailed item lists with labels, PM2
reassurance message, and actionable next steps. JSON output available
via MIGRATION_JSON_OUTPUT=1 env var.
* fix(test): allowlist python_os_environ as known false-positive in skills guard test
MIGRATION_JSON_OUTPUT env var is a legitimate CLI feature flag that enables
JSON output mode, not an env dump. Add it alongside agent_config_mod as an
accepted finding in test_skill_installs_cleanly_under_skills_guard.
* fix(test): add hermes_config_mod to known false-positives in skills guard test
The scanner flags two print statements that tell the user to *review*
~/.hermes/config.yaml in the post-migration summary. The script never
writes to that file — those are informational strings, not config mutations.

repos (GPTomics/bioSkills and ClawBio/ClawBio) and fetches domain-specific
reference material on demand. Covers genomics, transcriptomics, single-cell,
variant calling, pharmacogenomics, metagenomics, structural biology, and
20+ other computational biology domains.
No dependencies bundled — the skill clones the relevant repo when needed
and reads the domain-specific guides as reference material.
* feat: add meme-generation skill
* Reduce meme skill prompt cost with tighter selection rules
* feat(skill): overhaul meme-generation into real image generator
Move from skills/creative/ to optional-skills/creative/ (niche skill,
not needed by default). Replace prompt-only meme concept brainstormer
with actual meme image generation:
- Python script using Pillow to overlay text on template images
- 10 curated templates with hand-tuned text positioning
- Dynamic access to ~100 popular imgflip templates via public API
- Custom image mode (--image): use AI-generated or any image as base
- Two text modes: overlay (white+outline on image) or bars (black bars)
- Vision verification workflow: use vision_analyze to QA the result
- Auto-scaling font with pixel-accurate word wrapping
- Template search via --search
- No API keys required
Original skill concept by adanaleycio (PR #1771), overhauled with
image generation and custom image support.
