5 Bundled Skills Catalog Catalog of bundled skills that ship with Hermes Agent

Bundled Skills Catalog

Hermes ships with a large built-in skill library copied into ~/.hermes/skills/ on install. Each skill below links to a dedicated page with its full definition, setup, and usage.

Hermes also syncs bundled skills on hermes update, but the sync manifest respects local deletions and user edits. If a skill listed here is missing from your profile's ~/.hermes/skills/ tree, it is still shipped with Hermes; restore it with hermes skills reset <name> --restore.

If a skill is missing from this list but present in the repo, the catalog is regenerated by website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py.
