Teknium e3921e7ca4 docs(skills): compress 74 built-in skill descriptions to <=60 chars

Target: every skill's description fits in a one-line gateway menu and
leads with trigger keywords an agent would match on. Drops filler like
'Use this skill to', 'A skill for', 'This skill provides'.

Before: max description length was 791 chars (architecture-diagram),
74 of 81 built-in skills were >60 chars.

After: max 60, mean 54, all 81 built-in skills <=60.

Rewritten with double-quoted YAML scalars to preserve Chinese/arrow
glyphs (baoyu-comic, yuanbao, youtube-content).

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):

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

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

For sending in chat, tinygif URLs are lighter weight
GIF URLs can be used directly in markdown: ![alt](url)
