SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Hermes generates valuable memories and session knowledge, but they often stay trapped in local files instead of being organized and searchable inside your Obsidian wiki.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Hermes History Ingest: Ingest persistent Hermes memories and optional session transcripts into Obsidian with distilled, privacy-aware summaries.
  • Incremental and Full Modes: Use manifest-driven append mode for routine syncs or full mode for full re-ingestion and rebuilds.
  • Topic Clustering and Wiki Routing: Cluster extracted insights into durable wiki pages using existing conventions (projects, concepts, entities, and synthesis).
  • Provenance and Compliance Guardrails: Apply provenance markers, redact sensitive data, and avoid verbatim transcript dumps.

Quick Start

Use the command "ingest ~/.hermes into the wiki" to sync your Hermes memories into your Obsidian vault and update the wiki index and manifest.

FAQPage Schema
How do I import Hermes session logs into an Obsidian wiki?

Hermes history ingest applies topic clustering to group extracted insights into durable wiki pages, preventing a one-page-per-file problem. It routes knowledge into existing wiki conventions like projects, concepts, entities, and synthesis pages for durable, searchable knowledge management.

Can I redact sensitive data when importing Hermes memories to Obsidian?

Yes, privacy redaction is applied during the Hermes history ingest process to ensure sensitive data is removed. The skill applies provenance markers and avoids verbatim transcript dumps, ensuring your Obsidian wiki contains distilled, privacy-aware summaries instead of raw sensitive information.

What is the best way to sync persistent Hermes memories without duplicating pages?

The best way to sync persistent Hermes memories without duplicating pages is using the manifest-driven incremental append mode. This routine sync method tracks ingestion metadata and applies topic clustering to merge new Hermes history insights into existing wiki pages rather than creating duplicates.

Does Hermes history ingest support full re-ingestion and rebuilds of my Obsidian vault?

Yes, Hermes history ingest supports a full re-ingest mode designed for complete rebuilds of your Obsidian wiki content. This mode reprocesses your Hermes agent memories and session transcripts from scratch while updating the wiki index, log, and ingestion metadata.

Why does my Hermes history import create one page per file instead of clustered topics?

If your Hermes history import creates one page per file, it is bypassing the topic clustering feature. The ingest process is designed to cluster extracted insights into durable wiki pages using existing conventions like projects, concepts, and entities, preventing a verbatim one-page-per-file dump.
