kshitijk4poor ccfbf42844 feat: secure skill env setup on load (core #688)
When a skill declares required_environment_variables in its YAML
frontmatter, missing env vars trigger a secure TUI prompt (identical
to the sudo password widget) when the skill is loaded. Secrets flow
directly to ~/.hermes/.env, never entering LLM context.

Key changes:
- New required_environment_variables frontmatter field for skills
- Secure TUI widget (masked input, 120s timeout)
- Gateway safety: messaging platforms show local setup guidance
- Legacy prerequisites.env_vars normalized into new format
- Remote backend handling: conservative setup_needed=True
- Env var name validation, file permissions hardened to 0o600
- Redact patterns extended for secret-related JSON fields
- 12 existing skills updated with prerequisites declarations
- ~48 new tests covering skip, timeout, gateway, remote backends
- Dynamic panel widget sizing (fixes hardcoded width from original PR)

Cherry-picked from PR #723 by kshitijk4poor, rebased onto current main
with conflict resolution.

Fixes #688

# GIF Search (Tenor API)
Search and download GIFs directly via the Tenor API using curl. No extra tools needed.
## Setup
Set your Tenor API key in your environment (add to `~/.hermes/.env`):
```bash
TENOR_API_KEY=your_key_here
```
Get a free API key at https://developers.google.com/tenor/guides/quickstart — the Google Cloud Console Tenor API key is free and has generous rate limits.
## Prerequisites
- `curl` and `jq` (both standard on macOS/Linux)
- `TENOR_API_KEY` environment variable
## Search for GIFs
```bash
# Search and get GIF URLs
curl -s "https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search?q=thumbs+up&limit=5&key=${TENOR_API_KEY}" | jq -r '.results[].media_formats.gif.url'
# Get smaller/preview versions
curl -s "https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search?q=nice+work&limit=3&key=${TENOR_API_KEY}" | jq -r '.results[].media_formats.tinygif.url'
```
## Download a GIF
```bash
# Search and download the top result
URL=$(curl -s "https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search?q=celebration&limit=1&key=${TENOR_API_KEY}" | jq -r '.results[0].media_formats.gif.url')
curl -sL "$URL" -o celebration.gif
```
## Get Full Metadata
```bash
curl -s "https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search?q=cat&limit=3&key=${TENOR_API_KEY}" | jq '.results[] | {title: .title, url: .media_formats.gif.url, preview: .media_formats.tinygif.url, dimensions: .media_formats.gif.dims}'
```
## API Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|-----------|-------------|
| `q` | Search query (URL-encode spaces as `+`) |
| `limit` | Max results (1-50, default 20) |
| `key` | API key (from `$TENOR_API_KEY` env var) |
| `media_filter` | Filter formats: `gif`, `tinygif`, `mp4`, `tinymp4`, `webm` |
| `contentfilter` | Safety: `off`, `low`, `medium`, `high` |
| `locale` | Language: `en_US`, `es`, `fr`, etc. |
## Available Media Formats
Each result has multiple formats under `.media_formats`:
| Format | Use case |
|--------|----------|
| `gif` | Full quality GIF |
| `tinygif` | Small preview GIF |
| `mp4` | Video version (smaller file size) |
| `tinymp4` | Small preview video |
| `webm` | WebM video |
| `nanogif` | Tiny thumbnail |
## Notes
- URL-encode the query: spaces as `+`, special chars as `%XX`
- For sending in chat, `tinygif` URLs are lighter weight
- GIF URLs can be used directly in markdown: `![alt](url)`
