SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Setting up Hermes Agent alongside OpenClaw, Codex, Gemini, and AGY as coding partners requires coordinating provider configuration, skill imports, LAN peer coordination, and dispatch rules across Windows and Mac hosts, which is error-prone when done manually. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Cross-harness onboarding: Installs and repairs Hermes on Windows or Mac, wires Nous Portal, LM Studio, OpenRouter, and Codex CLI providers, and imports ECC/orama skills as sanitized thin wrappers. - Dispatch lane governance: Separates native Hermes delegation, PT spawn workers, and fleet coordination lanes with a universal invocation envelope and readiness canaries. - LAN peer coordination: Provides pulse scripts, job queues, inbox fan-out, and GossipBus comms for Mac-to-Windows co-orchestration. - Use Case: A Windows operator installs Hermes beside OpenClaw, runs the thin-skill installer, verifies partner CLI canaries, then dispatches a bounded Codex job while the 15-minute coord pulse syncs results to the Mac peer inbox. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to set up Hermes as an operator shell and import the orama skills, then run the thin-skill installer with verification enabled.

Frequently Asked Questions about hermes-harness

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I install Hermes Agent alongside OpenClaw on Windows?

Use the hermes-harness onboarding procedure: clone or repair the Hermes repo, configure providers such as LM Studio or Nous Portal, then run install_hermes_thin_skills.py with --install --verify to write thin command wrappers into the Hermes skills directory.

How do I import ECC or orama skills into Hermes?

Run the install_hermes_thin_skills.py script, which writes thin wrappers pointing at canonical skill bodies under bin/orama-system/skills. Wrappers carry no procedure body themselves and are regenerated from canonical sources on each install.

Can Hermes dispatch Codex CLI and cursor-agent coding partners?

Yes, through bounded dispatch scripts like dispatch_codex_partner.py and dual_path_dispatch.py, which resolve CLI paths at runtime and support fanout, bounded, and interactive profiles. Partners must pass readiness canaries and cannot commit or deploy autonomously.

What is the difference between Hermes delegate_task and PT hermes-delegate?

Native Hermes delegate_task runs child tasks inside an interactive Hermes session, while hermes-delegate is an L-PT lane that spawns parallel PT workers via spawn_hermes_agent. The dispatch taxonomy reference defines these lanes and warns against conflating them.

Why does the coord pulse skip dispatching jobs on Windows or Mac?

The pulse exits when a lock file is held by a live process, the peer probe fails, or the pulse-gate reports no actionable inbox items. Blocked prerequisite cards stay queued but are skipped until their dependencies resolve.

What should never be committed when using Hermes with orama skills?

Never commit API keys, OAuth tokens, raw Hermes home exports, personal memory, absolute workstation paths, or hardcoded LAN IP literals. Machine-specific paths must use environment variables such as ORAMA_SYSTEM_PATH and HERMES_HOME.
