What problem does it solve? Coordinating multiple independent subtasks (research, coding, review) one at a time is slow and error-prone; this Skill fans them out to 2-5 parallel Perpetua-Tools hermes_harness workers, each as a separate AIAgent.chat thread, and reports results together. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Parallel Worker Fan-Out: Launches 2-5 independent tasks concurrently against hermes_harness.py, each in its own AIAgent.chat thread, sharing one wall-clock timeout. - Strict Validation & Fail-Closed Setup: Rejects task counts outside 2-5 up front and fails with a clear error if the Perpetua-Tools root cannot be resolved. - Structured Output Contract: Returns a per-worker status array by default, or a full canonical JSON envelope (status, data, warnings, follow_up_actions) with --json. - Use Case: Run "research the caching strategy | audit the auth middleware | summarize stale PRs" simultaneously and get one consolidated per-task status report instead of three sequential runs. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to run hermes-delegate with two to five pipe-separated independent tasks, for example: hermes-delegate research the caching strategy | audit the auth middleware | summarize open PRs.
