Every SKILL.md description over 60 chars was silently truncated to 57 chars + '...' in the system-prompt skill index (extract_skill_description, agent/skill_utils.py), destroying the routing signal for 69 of 179 skills — some descriptions ran to 1,005 chars. Rewrites follow the authoring standard: <=60 chars, one sentence, ends with a period, trigger front-loaded, no marketing words, no skill-name repetition. Excess detail already lives in each skill's body. Includes the touchdesigner-mcp trim from PR #32361 (credit: @JeliTron) and aligns with the router-precision direction of PR #48780 (@John-Lussier). Docs catalogs + per-skill pages regenerated via website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py. Co-authored-by: JeliTron <287797501+JeliTron@users.noreply.github.com>

| 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.
