SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Agent context grows bloated over time as long skill descriptions, stale skills, and always-on memory consume tokens every turn, degrading performance and increasing cost. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Six Examinations: Audits always-on memory, skill description length (flagging 300+ character descriptions), stale skills, tool-schema footprint, confidential disclosure risks, and duplicate skill overlap. - Five Remediation Actions: Cuts redundant content, quarantines bad skills to ~/.hermes/quarantine/ (never hard-deletes), merges overlapping skills, moves heavy content into on-demand references/ files, and trims descriptions under the limit. - Use Case: When your Hermes agent's context feels bloated and responses slow down, run the context doctor to identify which skills and memory entries are wasting tokens and safely prune them. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to run the context doctor and clean up your skills to reduce token usage.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I reduce token usage in my AI agent's context?▼

Run the context doctor to audit everything loaded each turn, including SOUL.md, standing memory, and skill descriptions. It flags descriptions over 300 characters, stale skills, and tool-schema bloat, then trims, merges, or quarantines offenders.

How to clean up stale or unused agent skills?▼

The context doctor identifies skills never invoked in recent sessions and overlapping skills covering the same ground. It can merge duplicates into the stronger skill or quarantine stale ones in ~/.hermes/quarantine/ for inspection.

Does the context doctor delete my skills permanently?▼

No, it never hard-deletes skills. Problematic skills are quarantined to ~/.hermes/quarantine/ so you can inspect them before deciding on permanent removal, keeping the process reversible.

What is the maximum length for a skill description?▼

Skill descriptions should stay under 300 characters because every description rides along in the prompt each turn. Longer descriptions are flagged by the audit and trimmed to reduce token bloat.

Can context auditing detect skills that leak secrets?▼

Yes, the confidential disclosure check examines whether any skill might leak secrets or PII in its output or description. Flagged skills can be quarantined or trimmed to remove the disclosure risk.
