docs: deep audit — fix stale config keys, missing commands, and registry drift (#22784)
* docs: deep audit — fix stale config keys, missing commands, and registry drift

Cross-checked ~80 high-impact docs pages (getting-started, reference, top-level
user-guide, user-guide/features) against the live registries:

  hermes_cli/commands.py    COMMAND_REGISTRY (slash commands)
  hermes_cli/auth.py        PROVIDER_REGISTRY (providers)
  hermes_cli/config.py      DEFAULT_CONFIG (config keys)
  toolsets.py               TOOLSETS (toolsets)
  tools/registry.py         get_all_tool_names() (tools)
  python -m hermes_cli.main <subcmd> --help (CLI args)

reference/
- cli-commands.md: drop duplicate hermes fallback row + duplicate section,
  add stepfun/lmstudio to --provider enum, expand auth/mcp/curator subcommand
  lists to match --help output (status/logout/spotify, login, archive/prune/
  list-archived).
- slash-commands.md: add missing /sessions and /reload-skills entries +
  correct the cross-platform Notes line.
- tools-reference.md: drop bogus '68 tools' headline, drop fictional
  'browser-cdp toolset' (these tools live in 'browser' and are runtime-gated),
  add missing 'kanban' and 'video' toolset sections, fix MCP example to use
  the real mcp_<server>_<tool> prefix.
- toolsets-reference.md: list browser_cdp/browser_dialog inside the 'browser'
  row, add missing 'kanban' and 'video' toolset rows, drop the stale
  '38 tools' count for hermes-cli.
- profile-commands.md: add missing install/update/info subcommands, document
  fish completion.
- environment-variables.md: dedupe GMI_API_KEY/GMI_BASE_URL rows (kept the
  one with the correct gmi-serving.com default).
- faq.md: Anthropic/Google/OpenAI examples — direct providers exist (not just
  via OpenRouter), refresh the OpenAI model list.

getting-started/
- installation.md: PortableGit (not MinGit) is what the Windows installer
  fetches; document the 32-bit MinGit fallback.
- installation.md / termux.md: installer prefers .[termux-all] then falls
  back to .[termux].
- nix-setup.md: Python 3.12 (not 3.11), Node.js 22 (not 20); fix invalid
  'nix flake update --flake' invocation.
- updating.md: 'hermes backup restore --state pre-update' doesn't exist —
  point at the snapshot/quick-snapshot flow; correct config key
  'updates.pre_update_backup' (was 'update.backup').

user-guide/
- configuration.md: api_max_retries default 3 (not 2); display.runtime_footer
  is the real key (not display.runtime_metadata_footer); checkpoints defaults
  enabled=false / max_snapshots=20 (not true / 50).
- configuring-models.md: 'hermes model list' / 'hermes model set ...' don't
  exist — hermes model is interactive only.
- tui.md: busy_indicator -> tui_status_indicator with values
  kaomoji|emoji|unicode|ascii (not kawaii|minimal|dots|wings|none).
- security.md: SSH backend keys (TERMINAL_SSH_HOST/USER/KEY) live in .env,
  not config.yaml.
- windows-wsl-quickstart.md: there is no 'hermes api' subcommand — the
  OpenAI-compatible API server runs inside hermes gateway.

user-guide/features/
- computer-use.md: approvals.mode (not security.approval_level); fix broken
  ./browser-use.md link to ./browser.md.
- fallback-providers.md: top-level fallback_providers (not
  model.fallback_providers); the picker is subcommand-based, not modal.
- api-server.md: API_SERVER_* are env vars — write to per-profile .env,
  not 'hermes config set' which targets YAML.
- web-search.md: drop web_crawl as a registered tool (it isn't); deep-crawl
  modes are exposed through web_extract.
- kanban.md: failure_limit default is 2, not '~5'.
- plugins.md: drop hard-coded '33 providers' count.
- honcho.md: fix unclosed quote in echo HONCHO_API_KEY snippet; document
  that 'hermes honcho' subcommand is gated on memory.provider=honcho;
  reconcile subcommand list with actual --help output.
- memory-providers.md: legacy 'hermes honcho setup' redirect documented.

Verified via 'npm run build' — site builds cleanly; broken-link count went
from 149 to 146 (no regressions, fixed a few in passing).

* docs: round 2 audit fixes + regenerate skill catalogs

Follow-up to the previous commit on this branch:

Round 2 manual fixes:
- quickstart.md: KIMI_CODING_API_KEY mentioned alongside KIMI_API_KEY;
  voice-mode and ACP install commands rewritten — bare 'pip install ...'
  doesn't work for curl-installed setups (no pip on PATH, not in repo
  dir); replaced with 'cd ~/.hermes/hermes-agent && uv pip install -e
  ".[voice]"'. ACP already ships in [all] so the curl install includes it.
- cli.md / configuration.md: 'auxiliary.compression.model' shown as
  'google/gemini-3-flash-preview' (the doc's own claimed default);
  actual default is empty (= use main model). Reworded as 'leave empty
  (default) or pin a cheap model'.
- built-in-plugins.md: added the bundled 'kanban/dashboard' plugin row
  that was missing from the table.

Regenerated skill catalogs:
- ran website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py to refresh all 163 per-skill
  pages and both reference catalogs (skills-catalog.md,
  optional-skills-catalog.md). This adds the entries that were genuinely
  missing — productivity/teams-meeting-pipeline (bundled),
  optional/finance/* (entire category — 7 skills:
  3-statement-model, comps-analysis, dcf-model, excel-author, lbo-model,
  merger-model, pptx-author), creative/hyperframes,
  creative/kanban-video-orchestrator, devops/watchers,
  productivity/shop-app, research/searxng-search,
  apple/macos-computer-use — and rewrites every other per-skill page from
  the current SKILL.md. Most diffs are tiny (one line of refreshed
  metadata).

Validation:
- 'npm run build' succeeded.
- Broken-link count moved 146 -> 155 — the +9 are zh-Hans translation
  shells that lag every newly-added skill page (pre-existing pattern).
  No regressions on any en/ page.

:::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. :::

GIF Search (Tenor API)

Search and download GIFs directly via the Tenor API using curl. No extra tools needed.

When to use

Useful for finding reaction GIFs, creating visual content, and sending GIFs in chat.

Setup

Set your Tenor API key in your environment (add to ~/.hermes/.env):

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

# 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

# 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

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](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/skills/media/gif-search/url)
