Teknium a2a8092e90 feat(cli): add --ignore-user-config and --ignore-rules flags
Port from openai/codex#18646.

Adds two flags to 'hermes chat' that fully isolate a run from user-level
configuration and rules:

* --ignore-user-config: skip ~/.hermes/config.yaml and fall back to
  built-in defaults. Credentials in .env are still loaded so the agent
  can actually call a provider.
* --ignore-rules: skip auto-injection of AGENTS.md, SOUL.md,
  .cursorrules, and persistent memory (maps to AIAgent(skip_context_files=True,
  skip_memory=True)).

Primary use cases:
- Reproducible CI runs that should not pick up developer-local config
- Third-party integrations (e.g. Chronicle in Codex) that bring their
  own config and don't want user preferences leaking in
- Bug-report reproduction without the reporter's personal overrides
- Debugging: bisect 'was it my config?' vs 'real bug' in one command

Both flags are registered on the parent parser AND the 'chat' subparser
(with argparse.SUPPRESS on the subparser to avoid overwriting the parent
value when the flag is placed before the subcommand, matching the
existing --yolo/--worktree/--pass-session-id pattern).

Env vars HERMES_IGNORE_USER_CONFIG=1 and HERMES_IGNORE_RULES=1 are set
by cmd_chat BEFORE 'from cli import main' runs, which is critical
because cli.py evaluates CLI_CONFIG = load_cli_config() at module import
time. The cli.py / hermes_cli.config.load_cli_config() function checks
the env var and skips ~/.hermes/config.yaml when set.

Tests: 11 new tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_ignore_user_config_flags.py
covering the env gate, constructor wiring, cmd_chat simulation, and
argparse flag registration. All pass; existing hermes_cli + cli suites
unaffected (3005 pass, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures).

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
