Hermes Agent Skills — Self-Evolving, Persona-Aware Skill Collection for Hermes Agent

A developer released hermes-agent-skills, a production-grade skill collection for the Hermes AI agent that includes an evolution engine tracking five health dimensions and a persona system via SOUL.md files. The collection features eight skills covering the full development lifecycle, from requirement analysis to deployment, with deep integration of Hermes-specific capabilities like slash commands, persistent memory, and multi-tool coordination.

Body: Hey everyone 👋 I've been building hermes-agent-skills — a production-grade skill collection for Skills aren't static YAML. The built-in EvolutionEngine tracks 5 health dimensions usage frequency, success rate, user corrections, freshness, command validity , assigns a health score, and tells you which skills are rotting. Think of it as npm audit for your AI assistant's capabilities. Drop a SOUL.md in your Hermes config — naming conventions, comment density, architecture preferences, commit style — and every skill that touches code output adapts to it. hermes-skill soul generate bootstraps one in one command. The persona-aware-coding skill reads it at runtime so your agent writes code that actually looks like you wrote it. hermes-skill create my-workflow scaffold a standards-compliant SKILL.md hermes-skill validate skills/ validate against the Agent Skills Standard hermes-skill list skills/ -f json enumerate with health metadata hermes-skill soul generate bootstrap a persona file What's in the box v1.1.0 : | Skill | Phase | Hermes-only Feature | |---|---|---| | requirement-analyzer | Define | Persistent memory across sessions | | spec-driven-dev | Spec | /skills chain forming workflows | | test-driven-dev | Build | delegate task parallel test execution | | debugger-coordinator | Verify | browser + terminal + vision tri-tool | | code-quality-guardian | Review | patch auto-fix + /curator tracking | | cicd-orchestrator | Ship | cronjob scheduling + webhook triggers | | skill-curator | Evolve | Direct /curator integration | | persona-aware-coding | Identity | Native SOUL.md persona system | Why this is different: Most agent skill collections are portable but shallow — they can't use any platform's unique superpowers. These skills go deep on Hermes specifically: slash commands, delegate task, persistent memory, vision+browser+terminal coordination, cron jobs, webhooks. But the format follows the open Agent Skills Standard — anyone can fork, remix, or build their own.

Would love feedback — especially from people who've tried building their own skills. What's the friction point you hit first?
