System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the friction of installing Hermes Agent on a VPS or local machine by turning a fragile, manual setup into a repeatable, safe workflow. It is designed for AI agents and operators who need a reliable Hermes install without PATH issues, container confusion, or accidental root-owned files.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • SSH-first installation: Verifies remote access and installs Hermes on the target host instead of the wrong environment.
  • Pinned, PATH-safe setup: Uses the official installer, pins a known-good version, and relies on the absolute binary path to avoid shell reload problems.
  • Validation and rollback: Checks for existing installs, confirms the host is not a container, verifies the version after install, and includes cleanup if anything fails.
  • Use case: A user wants to deploy Hermes on a fresh VPS, confirm it is installed correctly, and keep the setup reproducible for future agent workflows.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to run the Hermes install workflow on your VPS and follow the safe, pinned, SSH-first installation steps.
