SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Hermes TUI slash commands can misbehave across the Python backend, the gateway, and the Ink frontend. This skill helps you diagnose and fix cross-layer command issues quickly, improving autocomplete, consistency, and user experience.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-layer debugging workflow for Hermes TUI slash commands spanning Python backend, gateway, and frontend.
  • Guided investigations for missing COMMAND_REGISTRY entries, gateway handling, and local Ink handlers.
  • Quick hypothesis testing and step-by-step verification to reproduce, isolate, and fix issues in production-like environments.

Quick Start

Run Hermes in TUI mode and reproduce the slash-command issue to begin the cross-layer debugging workflow.

FAQPage Schema
Why do Hermes TUI slash commands fail to execute or autocomplete correctly?

Slash command failures in Hermes TUI often stem from cross-layer issues spanning the Python backend, gateway, and Ink frontend, requiring systematic debugging to locate registration mismatches or dispatch errors.

How do I debug missing slash commands in the Hermes TUI COMMAND_REGISTRY?

To debug missing Hermes TUI slash commands, check the Python backend COMMAND_REGISTRY for registration mismatches, verify the tui_gateway dispatch paths, and inspect local Ink handlers in the frontend.

What is the best way to troubleshoot cross-layer synchronization issues in a TUI gateway?

Troubleshooting TUI gateway synchronization involves tracing command execution paths across the Python backend and frontend, verifying gateway dispatch logic, and testing hypotheses step-by-step in a production-like environment.

How do I fix Hermes TUI slash command issues across Python, gateway, and Ink frontend layers?

Fixing Hermes TUI slash command issues requires a cross-layer debugging workflow: reproduce the issue, isolate the failing layer by checking COMMAND_REGISTRY and tui_gateway, inspect local Ink handlers, and apply targeted fixes.

When should I investigate local Ink handlers for TUI slash command problems?

Investigate local Ink handlers when the Python backend COMMAND_REGISTRY and tui_gateway dispatch paths are verified correct, but the frontend still fails to execute commands or display autocomplete suggestions properly.

Can I use this debugging workflow for TUI slash commands in any TypeScript frontend?

This workflow specifically targets Hermes TUI slash commands built with an Ink frontend, Python backend, and gateway layer, guiding cross-layer synchronization checks rather than general TypeScript TUI debugging.
