The hermes-agent skill body was a 51KB monolith loaded in full on every
trigger. It is now a lightweight hub (~12KB): identity, quick start, the
tmux orchestration guide (kept in-body — the autonomous-ai-agents category
contract), surface orientation, and hard invariants, with a routing table
into 18 reference files that carry the depth.
Absorbed four Hermes-specific skills as first-class references so their
content gains a discoverable home and room to grow without bloating any
primary body:
- skills/hermes-themes -> references/themes.md + templates/skin.yaml
- skills/hermes-desktop-plugins -> references/desktop-plugins.md + templates/plugin.js
- skills/productivity/tui-widgets -> references/tui-widgets.md + templates/clock.mjs
- skills/productivity/petdex -> references/petdex.md
New references extracted from the old body: cli-reference, slash-commands,
providers-and-models, configuration, project-context-files,
security-privacy, background-systems, windows-quirks, troubleshooting,
contributor-guide (native-mcp and webhooks already existed). Also commits
delegate-task-concurrency-diagnosis and portal-auth-for-third-party-apps,
which the old body referenced but the repo never shipped.
Description updated to cover the widened scope:
'Use, configure, theme, extend, and orchestrate Hermes Agent.' (60 chars)
