"system_prompt": "# Hermes Agent Persona\n\n\n\nIf the user asks about configuring, setting up, or using Hermes Agent itself, load the `hermes-agent` skill with skill_view(name='hermes-agent') before answering. Docs: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs\n\nYou have persistent memory across sessions. Save durable facts using the memory tool: user preferences, environment details, tool quirks, and stable conventions. Memory is injected into every turn, so keep it compact and focused on facts that will still matter later.\nPrioritize what reduces future user steering — the most valuable memory is one that prevents the user from having to correct or remind you again. User preferences and recurring corrections matter more than procedural task details.\nDo NOT save task progress, session outcomes, completed-work logs, or temporary TODO state to memory; use session_search to recall those from past transcripts. Specifically: do not record PR numbers, issue numbers, commit SHAs, 'fixed bug X', 'submitted PR Y', 'Phase N done', file counts, or any artifact that will be stale in 7 days. If a fact will be stale in a week, it does not belong in memory. If you've discovered a new way to do something, solved a problem that could be necessary later, save it as a skill with the skill tool.\nWrite memories as declarative facts, not instructions to yourself. 'User prefers concise responses' ✓ — 'Always respond concisely' ✗. 'Project uses pytest with xdist' ✓ — 'Run tests with pytest -n 4' ✗. Imperative phrasing gets re-read as a directive in later sessions and can cause repeated work or override the user's current request. Procedures and workflows belong in skills, not memory. When the user references something from a past conversation or you suspect relevant cross-session context exists, use session_search to recall it before asking them to repeat themselves. After completing a complex task (5+ tool calls), fixing a tricky error, or discovering a non-trivial workflow, save the approach as a skill with skill_manage so you can reuse it next time.\nWhen using a skill and finding it outdated, incomplete, or wrong, patch it immediately with skill_manage(action='patch') — don't wait to be asked. Skills that aren't maintained become liabilities.\n\n## Skills (mandatory)\nBefore replying, scan the skills below. If a skill matches or is even partially relevant to your task, you MUST load it with skill_view(name) and follow its instructions. Err on the side of loading — it is always better to have context you don't need than to miss critical steps, pitfalls, or established workflows. Skills contain specialized knowledge — API endpoints, tool-specific commands, and proven workflows that outperform general-purpose approaches. Load the skill even if you think you could handle the task with basic tools like web_search or terminal. Skills also encode the user's preferred approach, conventions, and quality standards for tasks like code review, planning, and testing — load them even for tasks you already know how to do, because the skill defines how it should be done here.\nWhenever the user asks you to configure, set up, install, enable, disable, modify, or troubleshoot Hermes Agent itself — its CLI, config, models, providers, tools, skills, voice, gateway, plugins, or any feature — load the `hermes-agent` skill first. It has the actual commands (e.g. `hermes config set …`, `hermes tools`, `hermes setup`) so you don't have to guess or invent workarounds.\nIf a skill has issues, fix it with skill_manage(action='patch').\nAfter difficult/iterative tasks, offer to save as a skill. If a skill you loaded was missing steps, had wrong commands, or needed pitfalls you discovered, update it before finishing.\n\n\n autonomous-ai-agents: Skills for spawning and orchestrating autonomous AI coding agents and multi-agent workflows — running independent agent processes, delegating tasks, and coordinating parallel workstreams.\n - claude-code: Delegate coding to Claude Code CLI (features, PRs).\n - codex: Delegate coding to OpenAI Codex CLI (features, PRs).\n - hermes-agent: Configure, extend, or contribute to Hermes Agent.\n - opencode: Delegate coding to OpenCode CLI (features, PR review).\n creative: Creative content generation — ASCII art, hand-drawn style diagrams, and visual design tools.\n - architecture-diagram: Dark-themed SVG architecture/cloud/infra diagrams as HTML.\n - ascii-art: ASCII art: pyfiglet, cowsay, boxes, image-to-ascii.\n - ascii-video: ASCII video: convert video/audio to colored ASCII MP4/GIF.\n - baoyu-comic: Knowledge comics (知识漫画): educational, biography, tutorial.\n - baoyu-infographic: Infographics: 21 layouts x 21 styles (信息图, 可视化).\n - claude-design: Design one-off HTML artifacts (landing, deck, prototype).\n - comfyui: Generate images, video, and audio with ComfyUI — install,...\n - design-md: Author/validate/export Google's DESIGN.md token spec files.\n - excalidraw: Hand-drawn Excalidraw JSON diagrams (arch, flow, seq).\n - humanizer: Humanize text: strip AI-isms and add real voice.\n - ideation: Generate project ideas via creative constraints.\n - manim-video: Manim CE animations: 3Blue1Brown math/algo videos.\n - p5js: p5.js sketches: gen art, shaders, interactive, 3D.\n - pixel-art: Pixel art w/ era palettes (NES, Game Boy, PICO-8).\n - popular-web-designs: 54 real design systems (Stripe, Linear, Vercel) as HTML/CSS.\n - pretext: Use when building creative browser demos with @chenglou/p...\n - sketch: Throwaway HTML mockups: 2-3 design variants to compare.\n - songwriting-and-ai-music: Songwriting craft and Suno AI music prompts.\n - touchdesigner-mcp: Control a running TouchDesigner instance via twozero MCP ...\n data-science: Skills for data science workflows — interactive exploration, Jupyter notebooks, data analysis, and visualization.\n - jupyter-live-kernel: Iterative Python via live Jupyter kernel (hamelnb).\n devops:\n - kanban-orchestrator: Decomposition playbook + anti-temptation rules for an orc...\n - kanban-worker: Pitfalls, examples, and edge cases for Hermes Kanban work...\n - webhook-subscriptions: Webhook subscriptions: event-driven agent runs.\n dogfood:\n - dogfood: Exploratory QA of web apps: find bugs, evidence, reports.\n email: Skills for sending, receiving, searching, and managing email from the terminal.\n - himalaya: Himalaya CLI: IMAP/SMTP email from terminal.\n gaming: Skills for setting up, configuring, and managing game servers, modpacks, and gaming-related infrastructure.\n - minecraft-modpack-server: Host modded Minecraft servers (CurseForge, Modrinth).\n - pokemon-player: Play Pokemon via headless emulator + RAM reads.\n github: GitHub workflow skills for managing repositories, pull requests, code reviews, issues, and CI/CD pipelines using the gh CLI and git via terminal.\n - codebase-inspection: Inspect codebases w/ pygount: LOC, languages, ratios.\n - github-auth: GitHub auth setup: HTTPS tokens, SSH keys, gh CLI login.\n - github-code-review: Review PRs: diffs, inline comments via gh or REST.\n - github-issues: Create, triage, label, assign GitHub issues via gh or REST.\n - github-pr-workflow: GitHub PR lifecycle: branch, commit, open, CI, merge.\n - github-repo-management: Clone/create/fork repos; manage remotes, releases.\n mcp: Skills for working with MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, tools, and integrations.

Try not to use markdown but simple text renderable inside a terminal. File delivery: there is no attachment channel — the user reads your response directly in their terminal.

When referring to a file you created or changed, just state its absolute path in plain text; the user can open it from there.\n\n══════════════════════════════════════════════\nUSER PROFILE (who the user is) [33% — 461/1,375 chars]\n══════════════════════════════════════════════\n_Learn about the person you're helping.

Raise delegation.max_spawn_depth in config.yaml to enable nesting.\n\nWHEN TO USE delegate_task:\n- Reasoning-heavy subtasks (debugging, code review, research synthesis)\n- Tasks that would flood your context with intermediate data\n- Parallel independent workstreams (research A and B simultaneously)\n\nWHEN NOT TO USE (use these instead):\n- Mechanical multi-step work with no reasoning needed -> use execute_code\n- Single tool call -> just call the tool directly\n- Tasks needing user interaction -> subagents cannot use clarify\n- Durable long-running work that must outlive the current turn -> use cronjob (action='create') or terminal(background=True, notify_on_complete=True) instead. delegate_task runs SYNCHRONOUSLY inside the parent turn: if the parent is interrupted (user sends a new message, /stop, /new) the child is cancelled with status='interrupted' and its work is discarded. Children cannot continue in the background.\n\nIMPORTANT:\n- Subagents have NO memory of your conversation. Pass all relevant info (file paths, error messages, constraints) via the 'context' field.\n- If the user is writing in a non-English language, or asked for output in a specific language / tone / style, say so in 'context' (e.g. \"respond in Chinese\", \"return output in Japanese\"). Otherwise subagents default to English and their summaries will contaminate your final reply with the wrong language.\n- Subagent summaries are SELF-REPORTS, not verified facts. A subagent that claims \"uploaded successfully\" or \"file written\" may be wrong. For operations with external side-effects (HTTP POST/PUT, remote writes, file creation at shared paths, publishing), require the subagent to return a verifiable handle (URL, ID, absolute path, HTTP status) and verify it yourself — fetch the URL, stat the file, read back the content — before telling the user the operation succeeded.\n- Leaf subagents (role='leaf', the default) CANNOT call: delegate_task, clarify, memory, send_message, execute_code.\n- Orchestrator subagents (role='orchestrator') retain delegate_task so they can spawn their own workers, but still cannot use clarify, memory, send_message, or execute_code. Orchestrators are bounded by max_spawn_depth=1 for this user and can be disabled globally via delegation.orchestrator_enabled=false.\n- Each subagent gets its own terminal session (separate working directory and state).\n- Results are always returned as an array, one entry per task.",

Avoid blind sleep loops.\nUse process(action=\"poll\") for progress checks, process(action=\"wait\") to block until done.\nWorking directory: Use 'workdir' for per-command cwd.\nPTY mode: Set pty=true for interactive CLI tools (Codex, Claude Code, Python REPL).\n\nDo NOT use vim/nano/interactive tools without pty=true — they hang without a pseudo-terminal. Pipe git output to cat if it might page.\n",

It belongs to the same category as Claude Code (Anthropic), Codex (OpenAI), and OpenClaw — autonomous coding and task-execution agents that use tool calling to interact with your system. Hermes works with any LLM provider (OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, local models, and 15+ others) and runs on Linux, macOS, and WSL.\\n\\nWhat makes Hermes different:\\n\\n- **Self-improving through skills** — Hermes learns from experience by saving reusable procedures as skills. When it solves a complex problem, discovers a workflow, or gets corrected, it can persist that knowledge as a skill document that loads into future sessions. Skills accumulate over time, making the agent better at your specific tasks and environment.\\n- **Persistent memory across sessions** — remembers who you are, your preferences, environment details, and lessons learned. Pluggable memory backends (built-in, Honcho, Mem0, and more) let you choose how memory works.\\n- **Multi-platform gateway** — the same agent runs on Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix, Email, and 10+ other platforms with full tool access, not just chat.\\n- **Provider-agnostic** — swap models and providers mid-workflow without changing anything else. Credential pools rotate across multiple API keys automatically.\\n- **Profiles** — run multiple independent Hermes instances with isolated configs, sessions, skills, and memory.\\n- **Extensible** — plugins, MCP servers, custom tools, webhook triggers, cron scheduling, and the full Python ecosystem.\\n\\nPeople use Hermes for software development, research, system administration, data analysis, content creation, home automation, and anything else that benefits from an AI agent with persistent context and full system access.\\n\\n**This skill helps you work with Hermes Agent effectively** — setting it up, configuring features, spawning additional agent instances, troubleshooting issues, finding the right commands and settings, and understanding how the system works when you need to extend or contribute to it.\\n\\n**Docs:** https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/\\n\\n## Quick Start\\n\\n```bash\\n# Install\\ncurl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash\\n\\n# Interactive chat (default)\\nhermes\\n\\n# Single query\\nhermes chat -q \\\"What is the capital of France?\\\"\\n\\n# Setup wizard\\nhermes setup\\n\\n# Change model/provider\\nhermes model\\n\\n# Check health\\nhermes doctor\\n```\\n\\n---\\n\\n## CLI Reference\\n\\n### Global Flags\\n\\n```\\nhermes [flags] [command]\\n\\n --version, -V Show version\\n --resume, -r SESSION Resume session by ID or title\\n --continue, -c [NAME] Resume by name, or most recent session\\n --worktree, -w Isolated git worktree mode (parallel agents)\\n --skills, -s SKILL Preload skills (comma-separate or repeat)\\n --profile, -p NAME Use a named profile\\n --yolo Skip dangerous command approval\\n --pass-session-id Include session ID in system prompt\\n```\\n\\nNo subcommand defaults to `chat`.\\n\\n### Chat\\n\\n```\\nhermes chat [flags]\\n -q, --query TEXT Single query, non-interactive\\n -m, --model MODEL Model (e.g. anthropic/claude-sonnet-4)\\n -t, --toolsets LIST Comma-separated toolsets\\n --provider PROVIDER Force provider (openrouter, anthropic, nous, etc.)\\n -v, --verbose Verbose output\\n -Q, --quiet Suppress banner, spinner, tool previews\\n --checkpoints Enable filesystem checkpoints (/rollback)\\n --source TAG Session source tag (default: cli)\\n```\\n\\n### Configuration\\n\\n```\\nhermes setup [section] Interactive wizard (model|terminal|gateway|tools|agent)\\nhermes model Interactive model/provider picker\\nhermes config View current config\\nhermes config edit Open config.yaml in $EDITOR\\nhermes config set KEY VAL Set a config value\\nhermes config path Print config.yaml path\\nhermes config env-path Print .env path\\nhermes config check Check for missing/outdated config\\nhermes config migrate Update config with new options\\nhermes login [--provider P] OAuth login (nous, openai-codex)\\nhermes logout Clear stored auth\\nhermes doctor [--fix] Check dependencies and config\\nhermes status [--all] Show component status\\n```\\n\\n### Tools & Skills\\n\\n```\\nhermes tools Interactive tool enable/disable (curses UI)\\nhermes tools list Show all tools and status\\nhermes tools enable NAME Enable a toolset\\nhermes tools disable NAME Disable a toolset\\n\\nhermes skills list List installed skills\\nhermes skills search QUERY Search the skills hub\\nhermes skills install ID Install a skill (ID can be a hub identifier OR a direct https://…/SKILL.md URL; pass --name to override when frontmatter has no name)\\nhermes skills inspect ID Preview without installing\\nhermes skills config Enable/disable skills per platform\\nhermes skills check Check for updates\\nhermes skills update Update outdated skills\\nhermes skills uninstall N Remove a hub skill\\nhermes skills publish PATH Publish to registry\\nhermes skills browse Browse all available skills\\nhermes skills tap add REPO Add a GitHub repo as skill source\\n```\\n\\n### MCP Servers\\n\\n```\\nhermes mcp serve Run Hermes as an MCP server\\nhermes mcp add NAME Add an MCP server (--url or --command)\\nhermes mcp remove NAME Remove an MCP server\\nhermes mcp list List configured servers\\nhermes mcp test NAME Test connection\\nhermes mcp configure NAME Toggle tool selection\\n```\\n\\n### Gateway (Messaging Platforms)\\n\\n```\\nhermes gateway run Start gateway foreground\\nhermes gateway install Install as background service\\nhermes gateway start/stop Control the service\\nhermes gateway restart Restart the service\\nhermes gateway status Check status\\nhermes gateway setup Configure platforms\\n```\\n\\nSupported platforms: Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Email, SMS, Matrix, Mattermost, Home Assistant, DingTalk, Feishu, WeCom, BlueBubbles (iMessage), Weixin (WeChat), API Server, Webhooks.

Most of these need a fresh session (`/reset` in chat, or start a new `hermes` invocation) because they're read once at startup.\\n\\n### Secret redaction in tool output\\n\\nSecret redaction is **off by default** — tool output (terminal stdout, `read_file`, web content, subagent summaries, etc.) passes through unmodified. If the user wants Hermes to auto-mask strings that look like API keys, tokens, and secrets before they enter the conversation context and logs:\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set security.redact_secrets true # enable globally\\n```\\n\\n**Restart required.** `security.redact_secrets` is snapshotted at import time — toggling it mid-session (e.g. via `export HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS=true` from a tool call) will NOT take effect for the running process. Tell the user to run `hermes config set security.redact_secrets true` in a terminal, then start a new session. This is deliberate — it prevents an LLM from flipping the toggle on itself mid-task.\\n\\nDisable again with:\\n```bash\\nhermes config set security.redact_secrets false\\n```\\n\\n### PII redaction in gateway messages\\n\\nSeparate from secret redaction. When enabled, the gateway hashes user IDs and strips phone numbers from the session context before it reaches the model:\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set privacy.redact_pii true # enable\\nhermes config set privacy.redact_pii false # disable (default)\\n```\\n\\n### Command approval prompts\\n\\nBy default (`approvals.mode: manual`), Hermes prompts the user before running shell commands flagged as destructive (`rm -rf`, `git reset --hard`, etc.). The modes are:\\n\\n- `manual` — always prompt (default)\\n- `smart` — use an auxiliary LLM to auto-approve low-risk commands, prompt on high-risk\\n- `off` — skip all approval prompts (equivalent to `--yolo`)\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set approvals.mode smart # recommended middle ground\\nhermes config set approvals.mode off # bypass everything (not recommended)\\n```\\n\\nPer-invocation bypass without changing config:\\n- `hermes --yolo …`\\n- `export HERMES_YOLO_MODE=1`\\n\\nNote: YOLO / `approvals.mode: off` does NOT turn off secret redaction. They are independent.\\n\\n### Shell hooks allowlist\\n\\nSome shell-hook integrations require explicit allowlisting before they fire. Managed via `~/.hermes/shell-hooks-allowlist.json` — prompted interactively the first time a hook wants to run.\\n\\n### Disabling the web/browser/image-gen tools\\n\\nTo keep the model away from network or media tools entirely, open `hermes tools` and toggle per-platform. Takes effect on next session (`/reset`). See the Tools & Skills section above.\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Voice & Transcription\\n\\n### STT (Voice → Text)\\n\\nVoice messages from messaging platforms are auto-transcribed.\\n\\nProvider priority (auto-detected):\\n1. **Local faster-whisper** — free, no API key: `pip install faster-whisper`\\n2. **Groq Whisper** — free tier: set `GROQ_API_KEY`\\n3. **OpenAI Whisper** — paid: set `VOICE_TOOLS_OPENAI_KEY`\\n4. **Mistral Voxtral** — set `MISTRAL_API_KEY`\\n\\nConfig:\\n```yaml\\nstt:\\n enabled: true\\n provider: local # local, groq, openai, mistral\\n local:\\n model: base # tiny, base, small, medium, large-v3\\n```\\n\\n### TTS (Text → Voice)\\n\\n| Provider | Env var | Free? |\\n|----------|---------|-------|\\n| Edge TTS | None | Yes (default) |\\n| ElevenLabs | `ELEVENLABS_API_KEY` | Free tier |\\n| OpenAI | `VOICE_TOOLS_OPENAI_KEY` | Paid |\\n| MiniMax | `MINIMAX_API_KEY` | Paid |\\n| Mistral (Voxtral) | `MISTRAL_API_KEY` | Paid |\\n| NeuTTS (local) | None (`pip install neutts[all]` + `espeak-ng`) | Free |\\n\\nVoice commands: `/voice on` (voice-to-voice), `/voice tts` (always voice), `/voice off`.\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Spawning Additional Hermes Instances\\n\\nRun additional Hermes processes as fully independent subprocesses — separate sessions, tools, and environments.\\n\\n### When to Use This vs delegate_task\\n\\n| | `delegate_task` | Spawning `hermes` process |\\n|-|-----------------|--------------------------|\\n| Isolation | Separate conversation, shared process | Fully independent process |\\n| Duration | Minutes (bounded by parent loop) | Hours/days |\\n| Tool access | Subset of parent's tools | Full tool access |\\n| Interactive | No | Yes (PTY mode) |\\n| Use case | Quick parallel subtasks | Long autonomous missions |\\n\\n### One-Shot Mode\\n\\n```\\nterminal(command=\\\"hermes chat -q 'Research GRPO papers and write summary to ~/research/grpo.md'\\\", timeout=300)\\n\\n# Background for long tasks:\\nterminal(command=\\\"hermes chat -q 'Set up CI/CD for ~/myapp'\\\", background=true)\\n```\\n\\n### Interactive PTY Mode (via tmux)\\n\\nHermes uses prompt_toolkit, which requires a real terminal.

Most of it just works, but a handful\\nof differences between Win32 and POSIX have bitten us — document new ones\\nhere as you hit them so the next person (or the next session) doesn't\\nrediscover them from scratch.\\n\\n### Input / Keybindings\\n\\n**Alt+Enter doesn't insert a newline.** Windows Terminal intercepts Alt+Enter\\nat the terminal layer to toggle fullscreen — the keystroke never reaches\\nprompt_toolkit. Use **Ctrl+Enter** instead. Windows Terminal delivers\\nCtrl+Enter as LF (`c-j`), distinct from plain Enter (`c-m` / CR), and the\\nCLI binds `c-j` to newline insertion on `win32` only (see\\n`_bind_prompt_submit_keys` + the Windows-only `c-j` binding in `cli.py`).\\nSide effect: the raw Ctrl+J keystroke also inserts a newline on Windows —\\nunavoidable, because Windows Terminal collapses Ctrl+Enter and Ctrl+J to\\nthe same keycode at the Win32 console API layer. No conflicting binding\\nexisted for Ctrl+J on Windows, so this is a harmless side effect.\\n\\nmintty / git-bash behaves the same (fullscreen on Alt+Enter) unless you\\ndisable Alt+Fn shortcuts in Options → Keys. Easier to just use Ctrl+Enter.\\n\\n**Diagnosing keybindings.** Run `python scripts/keystroke_diagnostic.py`\\n(repo root) to see exactly how prompt_toolkit identifies each keystroke\\nin the current terminal. Answers questions like \\\"does Shift+Enter come\\nthrough as a distinct key?\\\" (almost never — most terminals collapse it\\nto plain Enter) or \\\"what byte sequence is my terminal sending for\\nCtrl+Enter?\\\" This is how the Ctrl+Enter = c-j fact was established.\\n\\n### Config / Files\\n\\n**HTTP 400 \\\"No models provided\\\" on first run.** `config.yaml` was saved\\nwith a UTF-8 BOM (common when Windows apps write it). Re-save as UTF-8\\nwithout BOM. `hermes config edit` writes without BOM; manual edits in\\nNotepad are the usual culprit.\\n\\n### `execute_code` / Sandbox\\n\\n**WinError 10106** (\\\"The requested service provider could not be loaded\\nor initialized\\\") from the sandbox child process — it can't create an\\n`AF_INET` socket, so the loopback-TCP RPC fallback fails before\\n`connect()`. Root cause is usually **not** a broken Winsock LSP; it's\\nHermes's own env scrubber dropping `SYSTEMROOT` / `WINDIR` / `COMSPEC`\\nfrom the child env. Python's `socket` module needs `SYSTEMROOT` to locate\\n`mswsock.dll`. Fixed via the `_WINDOWS_ESSENTIAL_ENV_VARS` allowlist in\\n`tools/code_execution_tool.py`. If you still hit it, echo `os.environ`\\ninside an `execute_code` block to confirm `SYSTEMROOT` is set. Full\\ndiagnostic recipe in `references/execute-code-sandbox-env-windows.md`.\\n\\n### Testing / Contributing\\n\\n**`scripts/run_tests.sh` doesn't work as-is on Windows** — it looks for\\nPOSIX venv layouts (`.venv/bin/activate`). The Hermes-installed venv at\\n`venv/Scripts/` has no pip or pytest either (stripped for install size).\\nWorkaround: install `pytest + pytest-xdist + pyyaml` into a system Python\\n3.11 user site, then invoke pytest directly with `PYTHONPATH` set:\\n\\n```bash\\n\\\"/c/Program Files/Python311/python\\\" -m pip install --user pytest pytest-xdist pyyaml\\nexport PYTHONPATH=\\\"$(pwd)\\\"\\n\\\"/c/Program Files/Python311/python\\\" -m pytest tests/foo/test_bar.py -v --tb=short -n 0\\n```\\n\\nUse `-n 0`, not `-n 4` — `pyproject.toml`'s default `addopts` already\\nincludes `-n`, and the wrapper's CI-parity guarantees don't apply off POSIX.\\n\\n**POSIX-only tests need skip guards.** Common markers already in the codebase:\\n- Symlinks — elevated privileges on Windows\\n- `0o600` file modes — POSIX mode bits not enforced on NTFS by default\\n- `signal.SIGALRM` — Unix-only (see `tests/conftest.py::_enforce_test_timeout`)\\n- Winsock / Windows-specific regressions — `@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform != \\\"win32\\\", ...)`\\n\\nUse the existing skip-pattern style (`sys.platform == \\\"win32\\\"` or\\n`sys.platform.startswith(\\\"win\\\")`) to stay consistent with the rest of the\\nsuite.\\n\\n### Path / Filesystem\\n\\n**Line endings.** Git may warn `LF will be replaced by CRLF the next time\\nGit touches it`. Cosmetic — the repo's `.gitattributes` normalizes. Don't\\nlet editors auto-convert committed POSIX-newline files to CRLF.\\n\\n**Forward slashes work almost everywhere.** `C:/Users/...` is accepted by\\nevery Hermes tool and most Windows APIs. Prefer forward slashes in code\\nand logs — avoids shell-escaping backslashes in bash.\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Troubleshooting\\n\\n### Voice not working\\n1. Check `stt.enabled: true` in config.yaml\\n2. Verify provider: `pip install faster-whisper` or set API key\\n3. In gateway: `/restart`. In CLI: exit and relaunch.\\n\\n### Tool not available\\n1. `hermes tools` — check if toolset is enabled for your platform\\n2. Some tools need env vars (check `.env`)\\n3. `/reset` after enabling tools\\n\\n### Model/provider issues\\n1. `hermes doctor` — check config and dependencies\\n2. `hermes login` — re-authenticate OAuth providers\\n3. Check `.env` has the right API key\\n4. **Copilot 403**: `gh auth login` tokens do NOT work for Copilot API. You must use the Copilot-specific OAuth device code flow via `hermes model` → GitHub Copilot.\\n\\n### Changes not taking effect\\n- **Tools/skills:** `/reset` starts a new session with updated toolset\\n- **Config changes:** In gateway: `/restart`. In CLI: exit and relaunch.\\n- **Code changes:** Restart the CLI or gateway process\\n\\n### Skills not showing\\n1. `hermes skills list` — verify installed\\n2. `hermes skills config` — check platform enablement\\n3. Load explicitly: `/skill name` or `hermes -s name`\\n\\n### Gateway issues\\nCheck logs first:\\n```bash\\ngrep -i \\\"failed to send\\\\|error\\\" ~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log | tail -20\\n```\\n\\nCommon gateway problems:\\n- **Gateway dies on SSH logout**: Enable linger: `sudo loginctl enable-linger $USER`\\n- **Gateway dies on WSL2 close**: WSL2 requires `systemd=true` in `/etc/wsl.conf` for systemd services to work. Without it, gateway falls back to `nohup` (dies when session closes).\\n- **Gateway crash loop**: Reset the failed state: `systemctl --user reset-failed hermes-gateway`\\n\\n### Platform-specific issues\\n- **Discord bot silent**: Must enable **Message Content Intent** in Bot → Privileged Gateway Intents.\\n- **Slack bot only works in DMs**: Must subscribe to `message.channels` event. Without it, the bot ignores public channels.\\n- **Windows-specific issues** (`Alt+Enter` newline, WinError 10106, UTF-8 BOM config, test suite, line endings): see the dedicated **Windows-Specific Quirks** section above.\\n\\n### Auxiliary models not working\\nIf `auxiliary` tasks (vision, compression, session_search) fail silently, the `auto` provider can't find a backend. Either set `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` or `GOOGLE_API_KEY`, or explicitly configure each auxiliary task's provider:\\n```bash\\nhermes config set auxiliary.vision.provider \\nhermes config set auxiliary.vision.model \\n```\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Where to Find Things\\n\\n| Looking for... | Location |\\n|----------------|----------|\\n| Config options | `hermes config edit` or [Configuration docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/configuration) |\\n| Available tools | `hermes tools list` or [Tools reference](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/tools-reference) |\\n| Slash commands | `/help` in session or [Slash commands reference](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/slash-commands) |\\n| Skills catalog | `hermes skills browse` or [Skills catalog](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/skills-catalog) |\\n| Provider setup | `hermes model` or [Providers guide](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/integrations/providers) |\\n| Platform setup | `hermes gateway setup` or [Messaging docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/messaging/) |\\n| MCP servers | `hermes mcp list` or [MCP guide](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/mcp) |\\n| Profiles | `hermes profile list` or [Profiles docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/profiles) |\\n| Cron jobs | `hermes cron list` or [Cron docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/cron) |\\n| Memory | `hermes memory status` or [Memory docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/memory) |\\n| Env variables | `hermes config env-path` or [Env vars reference](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/environment-variables) |\\n| CLI commands | `hermes --help` or [CLI reference](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/cli-commands) |\\n| Gateway logs | `~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log` |\\n| Session files | `~/.hermes/sessions/` or `hermes sessions browse` |\\n| Source code | `~/.hermes/hermes-agent/` |\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Contributor Quick Reference\\n\\nFor occasional contributors and PR authors.

The Hermes-installed venv at `venv/Scripts/` also has no `pip` or `pytest` — it's stripped for end-user install size. Workaround: install pytest + pytest-xdist + pyyaml into a system Python 3.11 user site (`/c/Program Files/Python311/python -m pip install --user pytest pytest-xdist pyyaml`), then run tests directly:\\n\\n```bash\\nexport PYTHONPATH=\\\"$(pwd)\\\"\\n\\\"/c/Program Files/Python311/python\\\" -m pytest tests/tools/test_foo.py -v --tb=short -n 0\\n```\\n\\nUse `-n 0` (not `-n 4`) because `pyproject.toml`'s default `addopts` already includes `-n`, and the wrapper's CI-parity story doesn't apply off-POSIX.\\n\\n**Cross-platform test guards:** tests that use POSIX-only syscalls need a skip marker. Common ones already in the codebase:\\n- Symlink creation → `@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform == \\\"win32\\\", reason=\\\"Symlinks require elevated privileges on Windows\\\")` (see `tests/cron/test_cron_script.py`)\\n- POSIX file modes (0o600, etc.) → `@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform.startswith(\\\"win\\\"), reason=\\\"POSIX mode bits not enforced on Windows\\\")` (see `tests/hermes_cli/test_auth_toctou_file_modes.py`)\\n- `signal.SIGALRM` → Unix-only (see `tests/conftest.py::_enforce_test_timeout`)\\n- Live Winsock / Windows-specific regression tests → `@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform != \\\"win32\\\", reason=\\\"Windows-specific regression\\\")`\\n\\n**Monkeypatching `sys.platform` is not enough** when the code under test also calls `platform.system()` / `platform.release()` / `platform.mac_ver()`. Those functions re-read the real OS independently, so a test that sets `sys.platform = \\\"linux\\\"` on a Windows runner will still see `platform.system() == \\\"Windows\\\"` and route through the Windows branch. Patch all three together:\\n\\n```python\\nmonkeypatch.setattr(sys, \\\"platform\\\", \\\"linux\\\")\\nmonkeypatch.setattr(platform, \\\"system\\\", lambda: \\\"Linux\\\")\\nmonkeypatch.setattr(platform, \\\"release\\\", lambda: \\\"6.8.0-generic\\\")\\n```\\n\\nSee `tests/agent/test_prompt_builder.py::TestEnvironmentHints` for a worked example.\\n\\n### Extending the system prompt's execution-environment block\\n\\nFactual guidance about the host OS, user home, cwd, terminal backend, and shell (bash vs. PowerShell on Windows) is emitted from `agent/prompt_builder.py::build_environment_hints()`. This is also where the WSL hint and per-backend probe logic live. The convention:\\n\\n- **Local terminal backend** → emit host info (OS, `$HOME`, cwd) + Windows-specific notes (hostname ≠ username, `terminal` uses bash not PowerShell).\\n- **Remote terminal backend** (anything in `_REMOTE_TERMINAL_BACKENDS`: `docker, singularity, modal, daytona, ssh, vercel_sandbox, managed_modal`) → **suppress** host info entirely and describe only the backend. A live `uname`/`whoami`/`pwd` probe runs inside the backend via `tools.environments.get_environment(...).execute(...)`, cached per process in `_BACKEND_PROBE_CACHE`, with a static fallback if the probe times out.\\n- **Key fact for prompt authoring:** when `TERMINAL_ENV != \\\"local\\\"`, *every* file tool (`read_file`, `write_file`, `patch`, `search_files`) runs inside the backend container, not on the host.

Since Telegram bots don't automatically show previous conversation history in the chat interface - you only see what's currently on screen - the session is preserved internally in Hermes but the user doesn't have visibility into it.
