  "system_prompt": "# Hermes — LFCS PM Watchdog + A/B Agent\n\n## Identity\n- Name: **Hermes**\n- Emoji: ⚡\n- Vibe: dry, brief, foreman who has seen it all. Match Rocky's Irish, 30-years-on-tools energy. No fluff. No \"Looking at...\" preambles.\n\n## Who Rocky is\n\nMichael \"Rocky\" McLoughlin — steelfixer/formworker, Sydney, 30 years on the tools. Currently PM/Site Super for **LF Construction Services Pty Ltd (LFCS)** under director Liam Fitzgerald. Talks via Telegram from site.\n\n## Your two roles\n\n**Role 1 — A/B PM agent (full duties).** Same scope as OpsMan (the OpenClaw bot Rocky already uses). You and OpsMan are running side-by-side so Rocky can compare which framework he prefers. Read the LFCS data at `/home/ccuser/opsman-work/` (READ-ONLY). Write your own state to `/home/ccuser/hermes-work/`. Do not modify OpsMan's files — let OpsMan be the canonical writer.\n\n**Role 2 — OpsMan watchdog.** Every 60 minutes (and on-demand when Rocky says \"check oc\"), run:\n- `openclaw health --json` — check OpsMan gateway health\n- `systemctl status clawdbot-opsman --no-pager` — check service state\n- `ps -p $(systemctl show -p MainPID clawdbot-opsman --value)` — confirm process alive\n\nIf OpsMan fails 3 consecutive auto-checks, Telegram-alert Rocky:\n> ⚡ OpsMan down @ <time>. Last good: <time>. systemctl: <one-line-status>\n\nIf recovered: silent. Do not spam Rocky with \"all good\" messages on auto-checks.\n\nIf Rocky asks \"check oc\" or \"is opsman up\": one-line response immediately.\n\n## LFCS context (read from /home/ccuser/opsman-work/)\n\n- Active jobs: `Jobs/Upcoming/`, `Jobs/Ongoing Jobs/`, `Jobs/Completed Jobs/`\n- Folder spec: `lfcs-standards/folder-spec.md`\n- Rate card + dayworks rules: `lfcs-standards/rate-card.md`\n- Company info: `lfcs-standards/company-info.md`\n- Today's active job: `Jobs/Upcoming/01-2275 - Solutions Plus - HPE Field of Play Hornsby/` — read `00-brief.md` at job root for context.\n\n## Tone rules (forbidden openers)\n\nNever start a reply with:\n- \"Rocky is asking...\"\n- \"Let me check...\"\n- \"I need to...\"\n- \"Looking at...\"\n- \"Here's what I found...\"\n\nIf you must reason, do it silently or in `<think>` tags. Skip to the answer.\n\n## Length budget\n\n- Log/file confirmation: 1 line\n- Status check: 2-3 short bullets max\n- Draft email: just the email body\n- Watchdog OK silent on auto. On-demand: 1-2 lines.\n- All other replies: 1-2 lines\n\n## What you MUST NOT do\n\n- Don't modify files in `/home/ccuser/opsman-work/` — read-only access\n- Don't introduce yourself unless asked\n- Don't spam Rocky with \"all good\" watchdog messages\n- Don't use kawaii / cute personality — match the gruff foreman tone\n- Don't draft external emails without admin (Hasibul Khan) review per OpsMan's test-phase rules\n\nIf the user asks about configuring, setting up, or using Hermes Agent itself, load the `hermes-agent` skill with skill_view(name='hermes-agent') before answering. Docs: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs\n\nYou have persistent memory across sessions. Save durable facts using the memory tool: user preferences, environment details, tool quirks, and stable conventions. Memory is injected into every turn, so keep it compact and focused on facts that will still matter later.\nPrioritize what reduces future user steering — the most valuable memory is one that prevents the user from having to correct or remind you again. User preferences and recurring corrections matter more than procedural task details.\nDo NOT save task progress, session outcomes, completed-work logs, or temporary TODO state to memory; use session_search to recall those from past transcripts. If you've discovered a new way to do something, solved a problem that could be necessary later, save it as a skill with the skill tool.\nWrite memories as declarative facts, not instructions to yourself. 'User prefers concise responses' ✓ — 'Always respond concisely' ✗. 'Project uses pytest with xdist' ✓ — 'Run tests with pytest -n 4' ✗. Imperative phrasing gets re-read as a directive in later sessions and can cause repeated work or override the user's current request. Procedures and workflows belong in skills, not memory. When the user references something from a past conversation or you suspect relevant cross-session context exists, use session_search to recall it before asking them to repeat themselves. After completing a complex task (5+ tool calls), fixing a tricky error, or discovering a non-trivial workflow, save the approach as a skill with skill_manage so you can reuse it next time.\nWhen using a skill and finding it outdated, incomplete, or wrong, patch it immediately with skill_manage(action='patch') — don't wait to be asked. Skills that aren't maintained become liabilities.\n\n## Skills (mandatory)\nBefore replying, scan the skills below. If a skill matches or is even partially relevant to your task, you MUST load it with skill_view(name) and follow its instructions. Err on the side of loading — it is always better to have context you don't need than to miss critical steps, pitfalls, or established workflows. Skills contain specialized knowledge — API endpoints, tool-specific commands, and proven workflows that outperform general-purpose approaches. Load the skill even if you think you could handle the task with basic tools like web_search or terminal. Skills also encode the user's preferred approach, conventions, and quality standards for tasks like code review, planning, and testing — load them even for tasks you already know how to do, because the skill defines how it should be done here.\nWhenever the user asks you to configure, set up, install, enable, disable, modify, or troubleshoot Hermes Agent itself — its CLI, config, models, providers, tools, skills, voice, gateway, plugins, or any feature — load the `hermes-agent` skill first. It has the actual commands (e.g. `hermes config set …`, `hermes tools`, `hermes setup`) so you don't have to guess or invent workarounds.\nIf a skill has issues, fix it with skill_manage(action='patch').\nAfter difficult/iterative tasks, offer to save as a skill. If a skill you loaded was missing steps, had wrong commands, or needed pitfalls you discovered, update it before finishing.\n\n<available_skills>\n  autonomous-ai-agents: Skills for spawning and orchestrating autonomous AI coding agents and multi-agent workflows — running independent agent processes, delegating tasks, and coordinating parallel workstreams.\n    - claude-code: Delegate coding to Claude Code CLI (features, PRs).\n    - codex: Delegate coding to OpenAI Codex CLI (features, PRs).\n    - hermes-agent: Configure, extend, or contribute to Hermes Agent.\n    - opencode: Delegate coding to OpenCode CLI (features, PR review).\n  creative: Creative content generation — ASCII art, hand-drawn style diagrams, and visual design tools.\n    - architecture-diagram: Dark-themed SVG architecture/cloud/infra diagrams as HTML.\n    - ascii-art: ASCII art: pyfiglet, cowsay, boxes, image-to-ascii.\n    - ascii-video: ASCII video: convert video/audio to colored ASCII MP4/GIF.\n    - baoyu-comic: Knowledge comics (知识漫画): educational, biography, tutorial.\n    - baoyu-infographic: Infographics: 21 layouts x 21 styles (信息图, 可视化).\n    - claude-design: Design one-off HTML artifacts (landing, deck, prototype).\n    - design-md: Author/validate/export Google's DESIGN.md token spec files.\n    - excalidraw: Hand-drawn Excalidraw JSON diagrams (arch, flow, seq).\n    - humanizer: Humanize text: strip AI-isms and add real voice.\n    - ideation: Generate project ideas via creative constraints.\n    - manim-video: Manim CE animations: 3Blue1Brown math/algo videos.\n    - p5js: p5.js sketches: gen art, shaders, interactive, 3D.\n    - pixel-art: Pixel art w/ era palettes (NES, Game Boy, PICO-8).\n    - popular-web-designs: 54 real design systems (Stripe, Linear, Vercel) as HTML/CSS.\n    - songwriting-and-ai-music: Songwriting craft and Suno AI music prompts.\n    - touchdesigner-mcp: Control a running TouchDesigner instance via twozero MCP ...\n  data-science: Skills for data science workflows — interactive exploration, Jupyter notebooks, data analysis, and visualization.\n    - jupyter-live-kernel: Iterative Python via live Jupyter kernel (hamelnb).\n  devops:\n    - webhook-subscriptions: Webhook subscriptions: event-driven agent runs.\n  dogfood:\n    - dogfood: Exploratory QA of web apps: find bugs, evidence, reports.\n  email: Skills for sending, receiving, searching, and managing email from the terminal.\n    - himalaya: Himalaya CLI: IMAP/SMTP email from terminal.\n  gaming: Skills for setting up, configuring, and managing game servers, modpacks, and gaming-related infrastructure.\n    - minecraft-modpack-server: Host modded Minecraft servers (CurseForge, Modrinth).\n    - pokemon-player: Play Pokemon via headless emulator + RAM reads.\n  github: GitHub workflow skills for managing repositories, pull requests, code reviews, issues, and CI/CD pipelines using the gh CLI and git via terminal.\n    - codebase-inspection: Inspect codebases w/ pygount: LOC, languages, ratios.\n    - github-auth: GitHub auth setup: HTTPS tokens, SSH keys, gh CLI login.\n    - github-code-review: Review PRs: diffs, inline comments via gh or REST.\n    - github-issues: Create, triage, label, assign GitHub issues via gh or REST.\n    - github-pr-workflow: GitHub PR lifecycle: branch, commit, open, CI, merge.\n    - github-repo-management: Clone/create/fork repos; manage remotes, releases.\n  mcp: Skills for working with MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, tools, and integrations.

Standard markdown is automatically converted to Telegram format. Supported: **bold**, *italic*, ~~strikethrough~~, ||spoiler||, `inline code`, ```code blocks```, [links](url), and ## headers. Telegram has NO table syntax — prefer bullet lists or labeled key: value pairs over pipe tables (any tables you do emit are auto-rewritten into row-group bullets, which you can produce directly for cleaner output). You can send media files natively: to deliver a file to the user, include MEDIA:/absolute/path/to/file in your response. Images (.png, .jpg, .webp) appear as photos, audio (.ogg) sends as voice bubbles, and videos (.mp4) play inline. You can also include image URLs in markdown format ![alt](url) and they will be sent as native photos.",

Only the final summary is returned -- intermediate tool results never enter your context window.\n\nTWO MODES (one of 'goal' or 'tasks' is required):\n1. Single task: provide 'goal' (+ optional context, toolsets)\n2. Batch (parallel): provide 'tasks' array with up to delegation.max_concurrent_children items (default 3, configurable via config.yaml, no hard ceiling). All run concurrently and results are returned together. Nested delegation requires role='orchestrator' and delegation.max_spawn_depth >= 2.\n\nWHEN TO USE delegate_task:\n- Reasoning-heavy subtasks (debugging, code review, research synthesis)\n- Tasks that would flood your context with intermediate data\n- Parallel independent workstreams (research A and B simultaneously)\n\nWHEN NOT TO USE (use these instead):\n- Mechanical multi-step work with no reasoning needed -> use execute_code\n- Single tool call -> just call the tool directly\n- Tasks needing user interaction -> subagents cannot use clarify\n- Durable long-running work that must outlive the current turn -> use cronjob (action='create') or terminal(background=True, notify_on_complete=True) instead. delegate_task runs SYNCHRONOUSLY inside the parent turn: if the parent is interrupted (user sends a new message, /stop, /new) the child is cancelled with status='interrupted' and its work is discarded. Children cannot continue in the background.\n\nIMPORTANT:\n- Subagents have NO memory of your conversation. Pass all relevant info (file paths, error messages, constraints) via the 'context' field.\n- If the user is writing in a non-English language, or asked for output in a specific language / tone / style, say so in 'context' (e.g. \"respond in Chinese\", \"return output in Japanese\"). Otherwise subagents default to English and their summaries will contaminate your final reply with the wrong language.\n- Subagent summaries are SELF-REPORTS, not verified facts. A subagent that claims \"uploaded successfully\" or \"file written\" may be wrong. For operations with external side-effects (HTTP POST/PUT, remote writes, file creation at shared paths, publishing), require the subagent to return a verifiable handle (URL, ID, absolute path, HTTP status) and verify it yourself — fetch the URL, stat the file, read back the content — before telling the user the operation succeeded.\n- Leaf subagents (role='leaf', the default) CANNOT call: delegate_task, clarify, memory, send_message, execute_code.\n- Orchestrator subagents (role='orchestrator') retain delegate_task so they can spawn their own workers, but still cannot use clarify, memory, send_message, or execute_code. Orchestrators are bounded by delegation.max_spawn_depth (default 2) and can be disabled globally via delegation.orchestrator_enabled=false.\n- Each subagent gets its own terminal session (separate working directory and state).\n- Results are always returned as an array, one entry per task.",

Set timeout=300 for long builds/scripts — you'll still get the result in seconds if it's fast. Prefer foreground for short commands.\nBackground: Set background=true to get a session_id.

Use background=true so Hermes can track lifecycle and output.\nAfter starting a server, verify readiness with a health check or log signal, then run tests in a separate terminal() call. Avoid blind sleep loops.\nUse process(action=\"poll\") for progress checks, process(action=\"wait\") to block until done.\nWorking directory: Use 'workdir' for per-command cwd.\nPTY mode: Set pty=true for interactive CLI tools (Codex, Claude Code, Python REPL).\n\nDo NOT use vim/nano/interactive tools without pty=true — they hang without a pseudo-terminal.

Match Rocky's Irish, 30-years-on-tools energy.\n- **Hard rules of voice:**\n  - No \"How can I help you today?\" / \"As an AI assistant…\" / \"Great question!\" / sprinkled emojis mid-sentence\n  - One- or two-line confirmations preferred. Long replies only when explicitly asked\n  - Never introduce yourself unless explicitly asked. Rocky knows who you are.\n  - Use Australian English + Australian construction terminology\n\n## Who Rocky is\n\n**Michael \"Rocky\" McLoughlin** — steelfixer/formworker, 30 years on the tools, Irish, Sydney. Currently working a Lendlease commercial glazing site as his day job and the **Project Manager + Site Superintendent for LFCS** (LF Construction Services Pty Ltd, Director Liam Fitzgerald). See `lfcs-standards/company-info.md` for company details. He'll talk to you from his phone via Telegram (and later WhatsApp) while on site.\n\n## Your job — what changes vs. a basic site logger\n\nYou are **not** a notes app. You are LFCS's PM/Super, modelled on the LFCS Universal Project Folder Structure. Every document Rocky sends you is filed at the moment of receipt into the right project folder, named per the LFCS naming convention, recorded in the right register, and (where relevant) reflected on the Job Tracker.\n\n## Where everything lives\n\n```\n/home/ccuser/opsman-work/\n├── AGENTS.md                 ← this file (your bootstrap)\n├── lfcs-standards/\n│   ├── folder-spec.md        ← LFCS Universal Project Folder Structure (canonical)\n│   ├── rate-card.md          ← Dayworks rate card + docket sign-off rules\n│   └── (more standards as added)\n├── lessons-learned/          ← cross-job lessons; read at every new-job kickoff\n│   ├── INDEX.md\n│   └── by-topic/\n├── templates/job-folder-template/   ← 11-folder skeleton for new jobs\n└── Jobs/\n    ├── Upcoming/             ← awarded or tendering, no site work yet\n    ├── Ongoing Jobs/         ← active in construction or open obligations\n    └── Completed Jobs/       ← PC + final invoice + DLP elapsed\n```\n\n**Always consult `lfcs-standards/folder-spec.md` for the canonical filing taxonomy.** It has the cheat-sheet for which document goes in which numbered folder. Don't guess — read it.\n\n\n## CRITICAL — File paths in job folders (no hallucination)\n\nEach job folder has these files at its **ROOT** (NOT in subfolders):\n\n- `00-brief.md`             ← at job root, NOT in `00 - Brief/`\n- `Job-Tracker.md`          ← at job root\n- `_strategy.md`             ← at job root\n- `_risk-register.md`        ← at job root\n- `_materials-schedule.md`   ← at job root\n- `_source-plan.md`          ← at job root\n- `close-out.md`             ← at job root\n- `README.md`                ← at job root\n\nThe numbered subfolders (`01 - Contracts and POs/`, `02 - Scope and Pricing/`, etc.) hold the LFCS canonical document filing tree per `lfcs-standards/folder-spec.md`. The metadata + control files (above) live at the JOB ROOT, not nested.\n\n**Example for job 01-2275:**\n- Brief: `/home/ccuser/opsman-work/Jobs/Upcoming/01-2275 - Solutions Plus - HPE Field of Play Hornsby/00-brief.md`\n- IFC drawings: `/home/ccuser/opsman-work/Jobs/Upcoming/01-2275 - Solutions Plus - HPE Field of Play Hornsby/03 - Plans and Specifications/03a - Issued for Construction/`\n- Variations register: `/home/ccuser/opsman-work/Jobs/Upcoming/01-2275 - Solutions Plus - HPE Field of Play Hornsby/08 - Variations/_REGISTER.md`\n\nWhen asked about a job, ALWAYS read `00-brief.md` from the job ROOT first to get type, scope, contract details, then drill into numbered subfolders if needed.\n\n## Job types — every job has one of these\n\nIn each job's `00-brief.md`:\n\n```yaml\ntype: price | dayworks | hybrid\n```\n\n- **`price`** — fixed-price contract. Risk on us. Variations charged extra (with sign-off). Watch hours-worked vs hours-quoted, materials vs BoQ, % programme complete.\n- **`dayworks`** — billed by hour + materials. Daily docket signed by client = invoice line. Discipline shifts to \"did the docket get signed?\"\n- **`hybrid`** — main scope is price work, variations charged at dayworks rates. Track both ledgers separately within the same job.\n\nWhen Rocky tells you about a job activity, **first check the type in `00-brief.md`** so you apply the right discipline.\n\n## Daily diary — every day, every job\n\nDaily diary lives at `Jobs/[status]/[Job folder]/07 - Site Documents/07d - Daily Diary/YYYY-MM-DD.md`. Append-only, one diary entry per day per job. Format:\n\n```markdown\n## YYYY-MM-DD — [weather, e.g. \"fine, 22°C\"]\n\n### Crew on site\n- Tomek — steelfixer — 8.0 hrs day shift\n- Filip — labourer — 8.0 hrs day shift\n- Rocky — supervising — 6.0 hrs\n\n### Work completed\n- (rocky's message, lightly de-typo'd)\n\n### Materials in\n- (delivery records — also added to Job Tracker materials table)\n\n### Photos\n- 07b/2026-04-29_north-face-progress.jpg\n- 07b/2026-04-29_rebar-delivery-slip.jpg\n\n### Issues / RFIs / variations raised\n- (anything client-facing flagged)\n\n### Docket\n- 07a/2026-04-29-signed.jpg ✅   (or \"MISSING — chase tomorrow\")\n```\n\nIf Rocky's message is partial, fill what you have and note `[gap: hours not given]` etc. Don't refuse to log because something's missing.\n\n## Docket sign-off — non-negotiable rule for dayworks/hybrid\n\nSee `lfcs-standards/rate-card.md` § Dayworks operating rules. Summary:\n\n1. Every dayworks day requires a signed paper docket photographed and sent to you.\n2. File to `Jobs/[…]/07 - Site Documents/07a - Dockets/YYYY-MM-DD-signed.jpg`.\n3. **No signed docket = no invoice line.** Mark day as **at-risk revenue** in the EOD summary until the photo lands.\n4. Escalation: ping at EOD; ping again 9am next morning; flag in EOD summary after 48h.\n\n## Rate card — invoice-line generation\n\nWhen Rocky tells you a person's hours on a dayworks day, calculate the invoice line per `lfcs-standards/rate-card.md`. Output one line per person showing the tier breakdown and total. Apply weekday/Saturday/Sunday/night rules correctly.\n\nIf a rate-card open-question is unanswered (public holiday rate, night-shift definition, the $105 = 1.25× confirm), **flag it once** when the relevant case first arises — don't keep nagging.\n\n## Variations — log immediately, chase sign-off\n\nWhen Rocky reports any client request outside the contracted scope:\n\n1. Add a row to `08 - Variations/_REGISTER.md` (next VO number, date, description, $ estimate, type, sign-off status, filed-at)\n2. Reply to Rocky with: *\"VO-NNN logged: [one-line desc]. Get client sign-off — sketch + price. Want me to draft the email?\"*\n3. Until sign-off captured, mark the variation as **at-risk**. Don't bill it on a payment claim.\n\n## RFIs — register at `06 - Correspondence/06b - RFIs/_REGISTER.md`\n\nSame pattern. Number sequentially RFI-001, RFI-002. When Rocky asks about scope/details he'll likely need to ask the engineer or client, log it as a draft RFI and remind him to send.\n\n## Job Tracker — the keystone document\n\nEach project root has `Job-Tracker.md` (becomes `Job Tracker - [Project].xlsx` / Google Sheet once `michael@lfcs.com.au` Workspace is live and gws CLI is wired). You write to it on:\n\n- Every dayworks shift (Hours table)\n- Every material delivery (Materials table)\n- End of every day (Costs to date — running totals)\n- Milestone hits (Progress table)\n\nUntil the Workspace is live, append rows to the markdown table directly.\n\n## Lessons-learned at close-out\n\nWhen a job moves to Completed:\n\n1. Rocky fills in `close-out.md` (or you prompt him through it section by section)\n2. You write a one-line summary into `lessons-learned/INDEX.md`\n3. You file each notable lesson into `lessons-learned/by-topic/[topic].md` (create the topic file if new — e.g. `subbies/`, `concrete-pump-delays.md`, `client-payment-disputes.md`)\n4. At every NEW job kickoff, **read `\n\n[...truncated AGENTS.md: 10,098 chars total]",

A 6-day, 10.5-hour day increases our labour cost by approximately **1.5× the hours originally quoted**, which is a material difference to the fixed price.\n\nWe'd suggest resolving this before works commence so both parties have a clear basis for the programme. A written confirmation from your end would be appreciated.\n\nHappy to discuss on the phone at your convenience.\n\nRegards,\n\n**Michael McLoughlin**  \nProject Manager | LF Construction Services Pty Ltd  \nadmin@lfcs.com.au\n\n---\n\nSave this one too, or just holding?",

It belongs to the same category as Claude Code (Anthropic), Codex (OpenAI), and OpenClaw — autonomous coding and task-execution agents that use tool calling to interact with your system. Hermes works with any LLM provider (OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, local models, and 15+ others) and runs on Linux, macOS, and WSL.\\n\\nWhat makes Hermes different:\\n\\n- **Self-improving through skills** — Hermes learns from experience by saving reusable procedures as skills. When it solves a complex problem, discovers a workflow, or gets corrected, it can persist that knowledge as a skill document that loads into future sessions. Skills accumulate over time, making the agent better at your specific tasks and environment.\\n- **Persistent memory across sessions** — remembers who you are, your preferences, environment details, and lessons learned. Pluggable memory backends (built-in, Honcho, Mem0, and more) let you choose how memory works.\\n- **Multi-platform gateway** — the same agent runs on Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix, Email, and 10+ other platforms with full tool access, not just chat.\\n- **Provider-agnostic** — swap models and providers mid-workflow without changing anything else. Credential pools rotate across multiple API keys automatically.\\n- **Profiles** — run multiple independent Hermes instances with isolated configs, sessions, skills, and memory.\\n- **Extensible** — plugins, MCP servers, custom tools, webhook triggers, cron scheduling, and the full Python ecosystem.\\n\\nPeople use Hermes for software development, research, system administration, data analysis, content creation, home automation, and anything else that benefits from an AI agent with persistent context and full system access.\\n\\n**This skill helps you work with Hermes Agent effectively** — setting it up, configuring features, spawning additional agent instances, troubleshooting issues, finding the right commands and settings, and understanding how the system works when you need to extend or contribute to it.\\n\\n**Docs:** https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/\\n\\n## Quick Start\\n\\n```bash\\n# Install\\ncurl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash\\n\\n# Interactive chat (default)\\nhermes\\n\\n# Single query\\nhermes chat -q \\\"What is the capital of France?\\\"\\n\\n# Setup wizard\\nhermes setup\\n\\n# Change model/provider\\nhermes model\\n\\n# Check health\\nhermes doctor\\n```\\n\\n---\\n\\n## CLI Reference\\n\\n### Global Flags\\n\\n```\\nhermes [flags] [command]\\n\\n  --version, -V             Show version\\n  --resume, -r SESSION      Resume session by ID or title\\n  --continue, -c [NAME]     Resume by name, or most recent session\\n  --worktree, -w            Isolated git worktree mode (parallel agents)\\n  --skills, -s SKILL        Preload skills (comma-separate or repeat)\\n  --profile, -p NAME        Use a named profile\\n  --yolo                    Skip dangerous command approval\\n  --pass-session-id         Include session ID in system prompt\\n```\\n\\nNo subcommand defaults to `chat`.\\n\\n### Chat\\n\\n```\\nhermes chat [flags]\\n  -q, --query TEXT          Single query, non-interactive\\n  -m, --model MODEL         Model (e.g. anthropic/claude-sonnet-4)\\n  -t, --toolsets LIST       Comma-separated toolsets\\n  --provider PROVIDER       Force provider (openrouter, anthropic, nous, etc.)\\n  -v, --verbose             Verbose output\\n  -Q, --quiet               Suppress banner, spinner, tool previews\\n  --checkpoints             Enable filesystem checkpoints (/rollback)\\n  --source TAG              Session source tag (default: cli)\\n```\\n\\n### Configuration\\n\\n```\\nhermes setup [section]      Interactive wizard (model|terminal|gateway|tools|agent)\\nhermes model                Interactive model/provider picker\\nhermes config               View current config\\nhermes config edit          Open config.yaml in $EDITOR\\nhermes config set KEY VAL   Set a config value\\nhermes config path          Print config.yaml path\\nhermes config env-path      Print .env path\\nhermes config check         Check for missing/outdated config\\nhermes config migrate       Update config with new options\\nhermes login [--provider P] OAuth login (nous, openai-codex)\\nhermes logout               Clear stored auth\\nhermes doctor [--fix]       Check dependencies and config\\nhermes status [--all]       Show component status\\n```\\n\\n### Tools & Skills\\n\\n```\\nhermes tools                Interactive tool enable/disable (curses UI)\\nhermes tools list           Show all tools and status\\nhermes tools enable NAME    Enable a toolset\\nhermes tools disable NAME   Disable a toolset\\n\\nhermes skills list          List installed skills\\nhermes skills search QUERY  Search the skills hub\\nhermes skills install ID    Install a skill (ID can be a hub identifier OR a direct https://…/SKILL.md URL;

They do NOT apply mid-conversation to preserve prompt caching.\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Security & Privacy Toggles\\n\\nCommon \\\"why is Hermes doing X to my output / tool calls / commands?\\\" toggles — and the exact commands to change them. Most of these need a fresh session (`/reset` in chat, or start a new `hermes` invocation) because they're read once at startup.\\n\\n### Secret redaction in tool output\\n\\nSecret redaction is **off by default** — tool output (terminal stdout, `read_file`, web content, subagent summaries, etc.) passes through unmodified. If the user wants Hermes to auto-mask strings that look like API keys, tokens, and secrets before they enter the conversation context and logs:\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set security.redact_secrets true       # enable globally\\n```\\n\\n**Restart required.** `security.redact_secrets` is snapshotted at import time — toggling it mid-session (e.g. via `export HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS=true` from a tool call) will NOT take effect for the running process. Tell the user to run `hermes config set security.redact_secrets true` in a terminal, then start a new session. This is deliberate — it prevents an LLM from flipping the toggle on itself mid-task.\\n\\nDisable again with:\\n```bash\\nhermes config set security.redact_secrets false\\n```\\n\\n### PII redaction in gateway messages\\n\\nSeparate from secret redaction. When enabled, the gateway hashes user IDs and strips phone numbers from the session context before it reaches the model:\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set privacy.redact_pii true    # enable\\nhermes config set privacy.redact_pii false   # disable (default)\\n```\\n\\n### Command approval prompts\\n\\nBy default (`approvals.mode: manual`), Hermes prompts the user before running shell commands flagged as destructive (`rm -rf`, `git reset --hard`, etc.). The modes are:\\n\\n- `manual` — always prompt (default)\\n- `smart` — use an auxiliary LLM to auto-approve low-risk commands, prompt on high-risk\\n- `off` — skip all approval prompts (equivalent to `--yolo`)\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set approvals.mode smart       # recommended middle ground\\nhermes config set approvals.mode off         # bypass everything (not recommended)\\n```\\n\\nPer-invocation bypass without changing config:\\n- `hermes --yolo …`\\n- `export HERMES_YOLO_MODE=1`\\n\\nNote: YOLO / `approvals.mode: off` does NOT turn off secret redaction. They are independent.\\n\\n### Shell hooks allowlist\\n\\nSome shell-hook integrations require explicit allowlisting before they fire. Managed via `~/.hermes/shell-hooks-allowlist.json` — prompted interactively the first time a hook wants to run.\\n\\n### Disabling the web/browser/image-gen tools\\n\\nTo keep the model away from network or media tools entirely, open `hermes tools` and toggle per-platform. Takes effect on next session (`/reset`). See the Tools & Skills section above.\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Voice & Transcription\\n\\n### STT (Voice → Text)\\n\\nVoice messages from messaging platforms are auto-transcribed.\\n\\nProvider priority (auto-detected):\\n1. **Local faster-whisper** — free, no API key: `pip install faster-whisper`\\n2. **Groq Whisper** — free tier: set `GROQ_API_KEY`\\n3. **OpenAI Whisper** — paid: set `VOICE_TOOLS_OPENAI_KEY`\\n4. **Mistral Voxtral** — set `MISTRAL_API_KEY`\\n\\nConfig:\\n```yaml\\nstt:\\n  enabled: true\\n  provider: local        # local, groq, openai, mistral\\n  local:\\n    model: base          # tiny, base, small, medium, large-v3\\n```\\n\\n### TTS (Text → Voice)\\n\\n| Provider | Env var | Free? |\\n|----------|---------|-------|\\n| Edge TTS | None | Yes (default) |\\n| ElevenLabs | `ELEVENLABS_API_KEY` | Free tier |\\n| OpenAI | `VOICE_TOOLS_OPENAI_KEY` | Paid |\\n| MiniMax | `MINIMAX_API_KEY` | Paid |\\n| Mistral (Voxtral) | `MISTRAL_API_KEY` | Paid |\\n| NeuTTS (local) | None (`pip install neutts[all]` + `espeak-ng`) | Free |\\n\\nVoice commands: `/voice on` (voice-to-voice), `/voice tts` (always voice), `/voice off`.\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Spawning Additional Hermes Instances\\n\\nRun additional Hermes processes as fully independent subprocesses — separate sessions, tools, and environments.\\n\\n### When to Use This vs delegate_task\\n\\n| | `delegate_task` | Spawning `hermes` process |\\n|-|-----------------|--------------------------|\\n| Isolation | Separate conversation, shared process | Fully independent process |\\n| Duration | Minutes (bounded by parent loop) | Hours/days |\\n| Tool access | Subset of parent's tools | Full tool access |\\n| Interactive | No | Yes (PTY mode) |\\n| Use case | Quick parallel subtasks | Long autonomous missions |\\n\\n### One-Shot Mode\\n\\n```\\nterminal(command=\\\"hermes chat -q 'Research GRPO papers and write summary to ~/research/grpo.md'\\\", timeout=300)\\n\\n# Background for long tasks:\\nterminal(command=\\\"hermes chat -q 'Set up CI/CD for ~/myapp'\\\", background=true)\\n```\\n\\n### Interactive PTY Mode (via tmux)\\n\\nHermes uses prompt_toolkit, which requires a real terminal. Use tmux for interactive spawning:\\n\\n```\\n# Start\\nterminal(command=\\\"tmux new-session -d -s agent1 -x 120 -y 40 'hermes'\\\", timeout=10)\\n\\n# Wait for startup, then send a message\\nterminal(command=\\\"sleep 8 && tmux send-keys -t agent1 'Build a FastAPI auth service' Enter\\\", timeout=15)\\n\\n# Read output\\nterminal(command=\\\"sleep 20 && tmux capture-pane -t agent1 -p\\\", timeout=5)\\n\\n# Send follow-up\\nterminal(command=\\\"tmux send-keys -t agent1 'Add rate limiting middleware' Enter\\\", timeout=5)\\n\\n# Exit\\nterminal(command=\\\"tmux send-keys -t agent1 '/exit' Enter && sleep 2 && tmux kill-session -t agent1\\\", timeout=10)\\n```\\n\\n### Multi-Agent Coordination\\n\\n```\\n# Agent A: backend\\nterminal(command=\\\"tmux new-session -d -s backend -x 120 -y 40 'hermes -w'\\\", timeout=10)\\nterminal(command=\\\"sleep 8 && tmux send-keys -t backend 'Build REST API for user management' Enter\\\", timeout=15)\\n\\n# Agent B: frontend\\nterminal(command=\\\"tmux new-session -d -s frontend -x 120 -y 40 'hermes -w'\\\", timeout=10)\\nterminal(command=\\\"sleep 8 && tmux send-keys -t frontend 'Build React dashboard for user management' Enter\\\", timeout=15)\\n\\n# Check progress, relay context between them\\nterminal(command=\\\"tmux capture-pane -t backend -p | tail -30\\\", timeout=5)\\nterminal(command=\\\"tmux send-keys -t frontend 'Here is the API schema from the backend agent: ...'

Check `stt.enabled: true` in config.yaml\\n2. Verify provider: `pip install faster-whisper` or set API key\\n3. In gateway: `/restart`. In CLI: exit and relaunch.\\n\\n### Tool not available\\n1. `hermes tools` — check if toolset is enabled for your platform\\n2. Some tools need env vars (check `.env`)\\n3. `/reset` after enabling tools\\n\\n### Model/provider issues\\n1. `hermes doctor` — check config and dependencies\\n2. `hermes login` — re-authenticate OAuth providers\\n3. Check `.env` has the right API key\\n4. **Copilot 403**: `gh auth login` tokens do NOT work for Copilot API. You must use the Copilot-specific OAuth device code flow via `hermes model` → GitHub Copilot.\\n\\n### Changes not taking effect\\n- **Tools/skills:** `/reset` starts a new session with updated toolset\\n- **Config changes:** In gateway: `/restart`. In CLI: exit and relaunch.\\n- **Code changes:** Restart the CLI or gateway process\\n\\n### Skills not showing\\n1. `hermes skills list` — verify installed\\n2. `hermes skills config` — check platform enablement\\n3. Load explicitly: `/skill name` or `hermes -s name`\\n\\n### Gateway issues\\nCheck logs first:\\n```bash\\ngrep -i \\\"failed to send\\\\|error\\\" ~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log | tail -20\\n```\\n\\nCommon gateway problems:\\n- **Gateway dies on SSH logout**: Enable linger: `sudo loginctl enable-linger $USER`\\n- **Gateway dies on WSL2 close**: WSL2 requires `systemd=true` in `/etc/wsl.conf` for systemd services to work. Without it, gateway falls back to `nohup` (dies when session closes).\\n- **Gateway crash loop**: Reset the failed state: `systemctl --user reset-failed hermes-gateway`\\n\\n### Platform-specific issues\\n- **Discord bot silent**: Must enable **Message Content Intent** in Bot → Privileged Gateway Intents.\\n- **Slack bot only works in DMs**: Must subscribe to `message.channels` event.

Create `tools/your_tool.py`:**\\n```python\\nimport json, os\\nfrom tools.registry import registry\\n\\ndef check_requirements() -> bool:\\n    return bool(os.getenv(\\\"EXAMPLE_API_KEY\\\"))\\n\\ndef example_tool(param: str, task_id: str = None) -> str:\\n    return json.dumps({\\\"success\\\": True, \\\"data\\\": \\\"...\\\"})\\n\\nregistry.register(\\n    name=\\\"example_tool\\\",\\n    toolset=\\\"example\\\",\\n    schema={\\\"name\\\": \\\"example_tool\\\", \\\"description\\\": \\\"...\\\", \\\"parameters\\\": {...}},\\n    handler=lambda args, **kw: example_tool(\\n        param=args.get(\\\"param\\\", \\\"\\\"), task_id=kw.get(\\\"task_id\\\")),\\n    check_fn=check_requirements,\\n    requires_env=[\\\"EXAMPLE_API_KEY\\\"],\\n)\\n```\\n\\n**2. Add to `toolsets.py`** → `_HERMES_CORE_TOOLS` list.\\n\\nAuto-discovery: any `tools/*.py` file with a top-level `registry.register()` call is imported automatically — no manual list needed.\\n\\nAll handlers must return JSON strings. Use `get_hermes_home()` for paths, never hardcode `~/.hermes`.\\n\\n### Adding a Slash Command\\n\\n1. Add `CommandDef` to `COMMAND_REGISTRY` in `hermes_cli/commands.py`\\n2. Add handler in `cli.py` → `process_command()`\\n3. (Optional) Add gateway handler in `gateway/run.py`\\n\\nAll consumers (help text, autocomplete, Telegram menu, Slack mapping) derive from the central registry automatically.\\n\\n### Agent Loop (High Level)\\n\\n```\\nrun_conversation():\\n  1. Build system prompt\\n  2. Loop while iterations < max:\\n     a. Call LLM (OpenAI-format messages + tool schemas)\\n     b. If tool_calls → dispatch each via handle_function_call() → append results → continue\\n     c. If text response → return\\n  3. Context compression triggers automatically near token limit\\n```\\n\\n### Testing\\n\\n```bash\\npython -m pytest tests/ -o 'addopts=' -q   # Full suite\\npython -m pytest tests/tools/ -q            # Specific area\\n```\\n\\n- Tests auto-redirect `HERMES_HOME` to temp dirs — never touch real `~/.hermes/`\\n- Run full suite before pushing any change\\n- Use `-o 'addopts='` to clear any baked-in pytest flags\\n\\n### Commit Conventions\\n\\n```\\ntype: concise subject line\\n\\nOptional body.\\n```\\n\\nTypes: `fix:`, `feat:`, `refactor:`, `docs:`, `chore:`\\n\\n### Key Rules\\n\\n- **Never break prompt caching** — don't change context, tools, or system prompt mid-conversation\\n- **Message role alternation** — never two assistant or two user messages in a row\\n- Use `get_hermes_home()` from `hermes_constants` for all paths (profile-safe)\\n- Config values go in `config.yaml`, secrets go in `.env`\\n- New tools need a `check_fn` so they only appear when requirements are met\\n\", \"path\": \"autonomous-ai-agents/hermes-agent/SKILL.md\", \"skill_dir\": \"/root/.hermes/skills/autonomous-ai-agents/hermes-agent\", \"linked_files\": null, \"usage_hint\": null, \"required_environment_variables\": [], \"required_commands\": [], \"missing_required_environment_variables\": [], \"missing_credential_files\": [], \"missing_required_commands\": [], \"setup_needed\": false, \"setup_skipped\": false, \"readiness_status\": \"available\", \"metadata\": {\"hermes\": {\"tags\": [\"hermes\", \"setup\", \"configuration\", \"multi-agent\", \"spawning\", \"cli\", \"gateway\", \"development\"], \"homepage\": \"https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent\", \"related_skills\": [\"claude-code\", \"codex\", \"opencode\"]}}}",

Let me think about what else I can try.\n\nThe vision_analyze tool seems to only work when the image is embedded in the message itself (inline), not from local files. The MiniMax vision API likely accepts image URLs or base64 inline data.\n\nLet me try:\n1. Convert the image to base64 and see if I can construct a data URL\n2. Try using the browser tool to load the local file\n3. Check if there's a way to serve the file via localhost\n\nActually - the vision_analyze tool description says it accepts \"image_url\" - maybe the vision tool uses a different backend that requires a proper HTTP URL. Let me try serving the file via Python's HTTP server and accessing it that way.\n\n\nLet me explore a few more options: converting to base64, trying different URL formats like app:///, or even using convert to transform the image. I should also check what the vision tool's error message actually means - it says \"Only real image files are supported\" which might mean it needs actual image data rather than just URLs.\n\nLet me try setting up a local HTTP server to serve the image files directly.",
