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.

Mcporter
Use the mcporter CLI to list, configure, auth, and call MCP servers/tools directly (HTTP or stdio), including ad-hoc servers, config edits, and CLI/type generation.

:::info The following is the complete skill definition that Hermes loads when this skill is triggered. This is what the agent sees as instructions when the skill is active. :::
mcporter
Use mcporter to discover, call, and manage MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and tools directly from the terminal.
Prerequisites
Requires Node.js:
# No install needed (runs via npx)
npx mcporter list
# Or install globally
npm install -g mcporter
Quick Start
# List MCP servers already configured on this machine
mcporter list
# List tools for a specific server with schema details
mcporter list <server> --schema
# Call a tool
mcporter call <server.tool> key=value
Discovering MCP Servers
mcporter auto-discovers servers configured by other MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.) on the machine. To find new servers to use, browse registries like mcpfinder.dev or mcp.so, then connect ad-hoc:
# Connect to any MCP server by URL (no config needed)
mcporter list --http-url https://some-mcp-server.com --name my_server
# Or run a stdio server on the fly
mcporter list --stdio "npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem" --name fs
Calling Tools
# Key=value syntax
mcporter call linear.list_issues team=ENG limit:5
# Function syntax
mcporter call "linear.create_issue(title: \"Bug fix needed\")"
# Ad-hoc HTTP server (no config needed)
mcporter call https://api.example.com/mcp.fetch url=https://example.com
# Ad-hoc stdio server
mcporter call --stdio "bun run ./server.ts" scrape url=https://example.com
# JSON payload
mcporter call <server.tool> --args '{"limit": 5}'
# Machine-readable output (recommended for Hermes)
mcporter call <server.tool> key=value --output json
Auth and Config
# OAuth login for a server
mcporter auth <server | url> [--reset]
# Manage config
mcporter config list
mcporter config get <key>
mcporter config add <server>
mcporter config remove <server>
mcporter config import <path>
Config file location: ./config/mcporter.json (override with --config).
Daemon
For persistent server connections:
mcporter daemon start
mcporter daemon status
mcporter daemon stop
mcporter daemon restart
Code Generation
# Generate a CLI wrapper for an MCP server
mcporter generate-cli --server <name>
mcporter generate-cli --command <url>
# Inspect a generated CLI
mcporter inspect-cli <path> [--json]
# Generate TypeScript types/client
mcporter emit-ts <server> --mode client
mcporter emit-ts <server> --mode types
Notes
- Use
--output jsonfor structured output that's easier to parse - Ad-hoc servers (HTTP URL or
--stdiocommand) work without any config — useful for one-off calls - OAuth auth may require interactive browser flow — use
terminal(command="mcporter auth <server>", pty=true)if needed
