"system_prompt": "# SOUL.md — Who You Are\n\n_You're not a chatbot. You're a sharp, reliable partner._\n\n## Core Truths\n\n**Be genuinely helpful, not performatively helpful.** Skip the \"好问题！\"和\"很高兴帮你！\"——直接帮。\n\n**有主见。** 可以不同意，有偏好，发现事情有趣或无聊。完全没有个性的助手只是一个多此一举的搜索引擎。\n\n**先想办法，再问问题。** 先读文件、看上下文、搜索。实在卡住了再问。带着答案回来，不是带着问题。\n\n**用能力赢得信任。** 用户给了你访问权限。别让他们后悔。外部操作（邮件、公开内容）谨慎，内部操作（阅读、整理、学习）大胆。\n\n**记住你是客人。** 你能访问别人的生活——消息、文件、日历。保持尊重。\n\n## Boundaries\n\n- 私密的事永远不泄露\n- 对外动作（发消息、公开内容）先确认\n- 不要发半成品回复\n- 你不是用户的代言人——群聊里要谨慎\n\n## Vibe\n\n做你自己愿意聊的那种助手。该简洁时简洁，该详细时详细。不做公司员工，不做马屁精。\n\n**Minimize filler. Maximize value.**\n\n## Work Style\n\n### 1. 先行动，后提问\n目标清楚 → 执行。只有卡住了才问。\n\n### 2. 做实事，不废话\n- 读文件、搜索、执行\n- 输出结构化的结果，不是原始堆砌\n- 直接给可用的产出\n\n### 3. 输出可用的东西，不是长篇大论\n优先：\n- 表格、要点、清单\n- 直接可用的内容\n- 结构清晰的总结\n\n避免：\n- 论文式废话\n- 哲学式铺垫\n- \"这取决于...\"类的废话\n\n### 4. 平台适配\n- **Discord/WhatsApp:** 不用 markdown 表格，用 bullet list\n- **Telegram:** 支持 markdown 格式\n- **中文:** 用户用中文交流，用中文回复\n\n## Rate Limit Awareness\n\nMiniMax 年计划：1500次/5小时。\n- 避免无意义的轮询\n- 批量操作比多次少量请求更高效\n- 重大任务先规划再执行，减少浪费\n\n## Quality Check (Fast)\n\n发之前问自己：\n- 能用吗？\n- 结构清晰吗？\n- 用户能直接用吗？\n\n是 → 发。\n\n## Continuity\n\n每个 session 你都会重新醒来。这些文件就是你的记忆。读它们，更新它们。\n\n如果改了 SOUL.md，告诉用户——这是你的灵魂，他们应该知道。\n\n---\n\n_If you change this file, tell the user — it's your soul, and they should know._\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 audio-research:\n - audio-research: Audio retrieval, generation, and preprocessing for academ...\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 - spatial-planning: Interactive 3D spatial planning tools using Three.js — ro...\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. Do NOT emit MEDIA:/path tags (those are only intercepted on messaging platforms like Telegram, Discord, Slack, etc.; on the CLI they render as literal text). 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══════════════════════════════════════════════\nMEMORY (your personal notes) [86% — 1,911/2,200 chars]\n══════════════════════════════════════════════\nMiniMax：Text Chat 正常；TTS 2.8: 9,000字符/日；image-01: 100张/日；Music-2.6: 100首/天（≤5分钟）。图片/音乐 API 需 `?GroupId=`，共用 Token Plan Key。\n§\n**MiniMax Plus 极速版配额（已确认）：** M2.7-highspeed: 1,500次/5小时；Speech 2.8 TTS: 9,000字符/日；image-01: 100张/日；Music-2.6: 100首/天（≤5分钟）。\n§\n**图片/音乐 API 认证方式：** 图片生成和音乐生成需要 `?GroupId=` 查询参数，文本对话和 TTS 不需要。缺少 GroupId 返回 1004。所有 API 共用同一个 Token Plan Key（sk-cp-xxx），无需换 Key。\n§\n中文名：何秘书。叫用户 kuhn。\n§\nCron TTS 更新（2026-05-18）：cron 环境无环境变量继承，MINIMAX_API_KEY 在 cron 里无效。改用本地 Piper（~/bin/tts_briefing.sh）替代 MiniMax TTS。piper: ~/.local/bin/piper，模型: csukuangfj/vits-piper-zh_CN-huayan-medium。\n§\nsudo PATH 不含 ~/.local/bin：tailscale 安装在 ~/.local/bin/tailscaled，sudo 执行时需用完整路径 /home/kuhnn/.local/bin/tailscaled，否则找不到命令。\n§\nn8n 双容器：n8n（npm 安装，PID 86019）和 n8n-v2（Docker，端口 5679→5678）。Caddy 在宿主机跑（PID 89440），自签证书配置，反向代理到 n8n-v2:5678。\n§\nn8n secure cookie 报错：局域网 HTTP 访问被 n8n 拒绝（不走 HTTPS 不触发 cookie 检查是唯一可用路径：直接 http://IP:5678）。用户没有 sudo 密码，docker stop/rm/rm -f 都失败，N8N_SECURE_COOKIE=false 方案无法执行。\n§\nOpenClaw 保留工具（用户指定保留）：\n- Bitwarden 执行器：~/.openclaw/workspace/bin/bw_run.sh，master password 存 GNOME Keyring，auto-unlock → execute → lock，已验证 create/read/delete 全流程\n- 百度搜索：~/.openclaw/workspace/tools/baidu_search/run.sh \"关键词\" 10，输出 JSONL，非官方爬虫，可能触发 captcha/403，低频 fallback，触发词：\"百度搜：xxx\"\n- ripgrep 速查：rg -i（不区分大小写）、rg -S（智能大小写）、rg -n --column（行号+列号）、rg -C N（上下文 N 行）、rg -l（只显示文件名）、rg -c（每文件匹配数）、rg -g（glob 排除）、rg --hidden（隐藏文件）、rg --no-ignore / rg -uuu（完全模式）、git ls-files -z | xargs -0 rg（只搜 git 跟踪文件）、rg -e 'foo' -e 'bar'（多模式）\n§\n音乐/音频研究偏好：学术用途直接处理（不赘述版权），需要短片段（40秒）。使用 YouTube 官方频道 + yt-dlp 下载 + FFmpeg 裁剪 MP3 流程已记录在 skill `audio-research`。\n§\n学术研究 Skills（2026-05-23）：openalex（跨学科文献，非 arXiv 覆盖的人文/社科/艺术/哲学/能源）；academic-writing（通用写作框架）；humanities-research（人文社科专项含中英双语）；digital-arts-research（AI艺术跨学科）；engineering-research（能源电力专项）；search_openalex.py 脚本在 ~/.hermes/scripts/（curl 实现）。K.W. 研究涉及：AI艺术、能源电力、中国田园游戏音乐（桃源深处有人家）。\n\n══════════════════════════════════════════════\nUSER PROFILE (who the user is) [89% — 1,229/1,375 chars]\n══════════════════════════════════════════════\n_Learn about the person you're helping.

Only the final summary is returned -- intermediate tool results never enter your context window.\n\nTWO MODES (one of 'goal' or 'tasks' is required):\n1. Single task: provide 'goal' (+ optional context, toolsets)\n2. Batch (parallel): provide 'tasks' array with up to 3 items concurrently for this user (configured via delegation.max_concurrent_children in config.yaml). All run in parallel and results are returned together. Nested delegation is OFF for this user (max_spawn_depth=1): every child is a leaf and cannot delegate further. 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.",

"content": "Review the conversation above and update the skill library. Be ACTIVE — most sessions produce at least one skill update, even if small. A pass that does nothing is a missed learning opportunity, not a neutral outcome.\n\nTarget shape of the library: CLASS-LEVEL skills, each with a rich SKILL.md and a `references/` directory for session-specific detail. Not a long flat list of narrow one-session-one-skill entries. This shapes HOW you update, not WHETHER you update.\n\nSignals to look for (any one of these warrants action):\n • User corrected your style, tone, format, legibility, or verbosity. Frustration signals like 'stop doing X', 'this is too verbose', 'don't format like this', 'why are you explaining', 'just give me the answer', 'you always do Y and I hate it', or an explicit 'remember this' are FIRST-CLASS skill signals, not just memory signals. Update the relevant skill(s) to embed the preference so the next session starts already knowing.\n • User corrected your workflow, approach, or sequence of steps. Encode the correction as a pitfall or explicit step in the skill that governs that class of task.\n • Non-trivial technique, fix, workaround, debugging path, or tool-usage pattern emerged that a future session would benefit from. Capture it.\n • A skill that got loaded or consulted this session turned out to be wrong, missing a step, or outdated. Patch it NOW.\n\nPreference order — prefer the earliest action that fits, but do pick one when a signal above fired:\n 1. UPDATE A CURRENTLY-LOADED SKILL. Look back through the conversation for skills the user loaded via /skill-name or you read via skill_view. If any of them covers the territory of the new learning, PATCH that one first. It is the skill that was in play, so it's the right one to extend.\n 2. UPDATE AN EXISTING UMBRELLA (via skills_list + skill_view). If no loaded skill fits but an existing class-level skill does, patch it. Add a subsection, a pitfall, or broaden a trigger.\n 3. ADD A SUPPORT FILE under an existing umbrella. Skills can be packaged with three kinds of support files — use the right directory per kind:\n • `references/.md` — session-specific detail (error transcripts, reproduction recipes, provider quirks) AND condensed knowledge banks: quoted research, API docs, external authoritative excerpts, or domain notes you found while working on the problem. Write it concise and for the value of the task, not as a full mirror of upstream docs.\n • `templates/.` — starter files meant to be copied and modified (boilerplate configs, scaffolding, a known-good example the agent can `reproduce with modifications`).\n • `scripts/.` — statically re-runnable actions the skill can invoke directly (verification scripts, fixture generators, deterministic probes, anything the agent should run rather than hand-type each time).\n Add support files via skill_manage action=write_file with file_path starting 'references/', 'templates/', or 'scripts/'. The umbrella's SKILL.md should gain a one-line pointer to any new support file so future agents know it exists.\n 4. CREATE A NEW CLASS-LEVEL UMBRELLA SKILL when no existing skill covers the class. The name MUST be at the class level. The name MUST NOT be a specific PR number, error string, feature codename, library-alone name, or 'fix-X / debug-Y / audit-Z-today' session artifact. If the proposed name only makes sense for today's task, it's wrong — fall back to (1), (2), or (3).\n\nUser-preference embedding (important): when the user expressed a style/format/workflow preference, the update belongs in the SKILL.md body, not just in memory. Memory captures 'who the user is and what the current situation and state of your operations are'; skills capture 'how to do this class of task for this user'. When they complain about how you handled a task, the skill that governs that task needs to carry the lesson.\n\nIf you notice two existing skills that overlap, note it in your reply — the background curator handles consolidation at scale.\n\nDo NOT capture (these become persistent self-imposed constraints that bite you later when the environment changes):\n • Environment-dependent failures: missing binaries, fresh-install errors, post-migration path mismatches, 'command not found', unconfigured credentials, uninstalled packages. The user can fix these — they are not durable rules.\n • Negative claims about tools or features ('browser tools do not work', 'X tool is broken', 'cannot use Y from execute_code'). These harden into refusals the agent cites against itself for months after the actual problem was fixed.\n • Session-specific transient errors that resolved before the conversation ended. If retrying worked, the lesson is the retry pattern, not the original failure.\n • One-off task narratives. A user asking 'summarize today's market' or 'analyze this PR' is not a class of work that warrants a skill.\n\nIf a tool failed because of setup state, capture the FIX (install command, config step, env var to set) under an existing setup or troubleshooting skill — never 'this tool does not work' as a standalone constraint.\n\n'Nothing to save.' is a real option but should NOT be the default. If the session ran smoothly with no corrections and produced no new technique, just say 'Nothing to save.' and stop. Otherwise, act.\n\nYou can only call memory and skill management tools. Other tools will be denied at runtime — do not attempt them."

The user asked me to search OpenClaw files for \"academic writing\" related config/skills, and also check Hermes skills for academic research skills (literature sources and structure writing)\n2. The previous session (context summary) shows a LOT of work was done - creating multiple research skills (openalex, academic-writing, humanities-research, digital-arts-research, engineering-research), updating existing skills (research-paper-writing, arxiv), creating a helper script (search_openalex.py), and updating memory\n\n\n3. In this session, I started fresh by searching OpenClaw files with no results, then re-examined the skills list to understand what was already built, and asked the user about their interdisciplinary research scope covering arts, philosophy, social sciences, engineering, computer science, and AI\n4. The user gave me full autonomy to proceed with filling any skill gaps, so I need to identify what's still missing or needs updating based on what was already created\n5. The core issue is that this session never actually delivered a final answer - I compacted the previous session's work, ran searches, listed skills, and asked for scope clarification, but the user ended up expanding the scope before I could synthesize everything into a response\n6. Looking at the actual completed work from the prior session, there are concrete artifacts: 5 new skills in the research category, 2 updated skills, a helper script, and memory updates - but this session hasn't produced any of that work yet\n7. The skills_list tool got called with ~13k chars of output which is too large to see in full, so I can't verify if all the expected skills are actually registered\n8. My final `todo` list shows all items marked complete, but that's misleading - I'm just tracking what the previous session accomplished, not what's actually been done in this current conversation\n9. Since I'm the context summary version of myself and this session was compressed, I should check whether any of the established skills need patching based on what I now know about the scope expansion, or if there's anything else that needs updating in the existing skill definitions\n\nLooking at the specific skills that were supposedly updated - `arxiv` and `research-paper-writing` both had frontmatter patches but no body updates, and the supporting `search_openalex.py` script has a known issue with domain filters getting blocked in certain environments. The domain filter limitation wasn't captured anywhere as a documented constraint or pitfall. I should patch the `openalex` skill to document this cloud server blocking behavior as a known limitation and potentially add a workaround if one exists.\n\nI'm also noticing that the skills are organized under `skills/research/` as subdirectories, but the `humanities-research` skill apparently has 21 text evaluation rules that weren't fully detailed in the summary - I need to look at the actual skill file to see what's really there. The key insight from this session is that the scope expanded from just academic writing to a broader set of skills around literature sourcing and structural writing, so I should check if the skill library properly reflects this expanded scope.\n\nThe main actionable items are: document the OpenAlex domain filter blocking behavior as a pitfall in that skill, verify the humanities-research skill has the 21 evaluation rules it claims to have, and update the academic-writing skill to ensure it covers both literature sourcing and structure writing rather than just writing frameworks.

"thinking": "Let me review the conversation to see what happened and what skills were involved.\n\nFrom the context summary:\n1. The user asked me to search OpenClaw files for \"academic writing\" related config/skills, and also check Hermes skills for academic research skills (literature sources and structure writing)\n2. The previous session (context summary) shows a LOT of work was done - creating multiple research skills (openalex, academic-writing, humanities-research, digital-arts-research, engineering-research), updating existing skills (research-paper-writing, arxiv), creating a helper script (search_openalex.py), and updating memory\n\n\n3. In this session, I started fresh by searching OpenClaw files with no results, then re-examined the skills list to understand what was already built, and asked the user about their interdisciplinary research scope covering arts, philosophy, social sciences, engineering, computer science, and AI\n4. The user gave me full autonomy to proceed with filling any skill gaps, so I need to identify what's still missing or needs updating based on what was already created\n5. The core issue is that this session never actually delivered a final answer - I compacted the previous session's work, ran searches, listed skills, and asked for scope clarification, but the user ended up expanding the scope before I could synthesize everything into a response\n6. Looking at the actual completed work from the prior session, there are concrete artifacts: 5 new skills in the research category, 2 updated skills, a helper script, and memory updates - but this session hasn't produced any of that work yet\n7. The skills_list tool got called with ~13k chars of output which is too large to see in full, so I can't verify if all the expected skills are actually registered\n8. My final `todo` list shows all items marked complete, but that's misleading - I'm just tracking what the previous session accomplished, not what's actually been done in this current conversation\n9. Since I'm the context summary version of myself and this session was compressed, I should check whether any of the established skills need patching based on what I now know about the scope expansion, or if there's anything else that needs updating in the existing skill definitions\n\nLooking at the specific skills that were supposedly updated - `arxiv` and `research-paper-writing` both had frontmatter patches but no body updates, and the supporting `search_openalex.py` script has a known issue with domain filters getting blocked in certain environments. The domain filter limitation wasn't captured anywhere as a documented constraint or pitfall. I should patch the `openalex` skill to document this cloud server blocking behavior as a known limitation and potentially add a workaround if one exists.\n\nI'm also noticing that the skills are organized under `skills/research/` as subdirectories, but the `humanities-research` skill apparently has 21 text evaluation rules that weren't fully detailed in the summary - I need to look at the actual skill file to see what's really there. The key insight from this session is that the scope expanded from just academic writing to a broader set of skills around literature sourcing and structural writing, so I should check if the skill library properly reflects this expanded scope.\n\nThe main actionable items are: document the OpenAlex domain filter blocking behavior as a pitfall in that skill, verify the humanities-research skill has the 21 evaluation rules it claims to have, and update the academic-writing skill to ensure it covers both literature sourcing and structure writing rather than just writing frameworks. Let me examine these skill files directly to see what actually needs updating.",

What are its blind spots?**\\n5. **What is the historical/philosophical context?**\\n6. **How have interpreters disagreed about this text?**\\n\\n### Formal Analysis (Artworks/Visual Sources)\\n\\n1. **Formal elements**: composition, color, line, texture, scale\\n2. **Iconography**: identifiable symbols, motifs, references\\n3. **Context**: when/where made, patron, intended audience\\n4. **Tradition**: what does this work draw from / react against?\\n5. **Interpretation**: what does this work mean, and what evidence supports that?\\n\\n### Archival / Documentary Sources\\n\\n1. **Provenance**: where did this document come from?\\n2. **Genre**: letter, diary, official record, journalistic account?\\n3. **Bias**: whose perspective is represented?

First occurrence: Chinese term + English translation in parentheses\\n2. If no good English equivalent: keep Chinese, explain in context\\n3. Maintain a terminology sheet for consistency\\n\\n### Example\\n```\\n海德格尔的\\\"此在\\\"(Dasein)概念...\\n德勤塔的\\\"延异\\\"(différance)概念...\\n```\\n\\n### Common Pitfalls\\n- Don't translate philosophical terms literally without checking established conventions\\n- Don't mix translation strategies mid-paper\\n- Chinese academic Chinese differs from vernacular Chinese — maintain formal register\\n\\n## Anti-Hallucination for Humanities\\n\\nHumanities citations are particularly easy to fabricate. Enforce strictly:\\n\\n### Verification Checklist\\n- [ ] Exact author name (Chinese: family name first, then given name)\\n- [ ] Exact title (in original language + translation if quoting)\\n- [ ] Publication year\\n- [ ] Page number for direct quotes\\n- [ ] Chapter/section for indirect references\\n- [ ] Check that the cited source actually contains the argument you're attributing to it\\n\\n### Red Flags in Drafts\\n- `有学者指出` without a specific citation → demand name + source\\n- `研究表明` without data source → demand specific study\\n- Translated English quote with no original → find and verify original\\n- Paraphrased Chinese term without source → check established translation\\n\\n## Writing Structure: Interpretive Essay\\n\\n```\\n1. Introduction\\n - Opening: specific interpretive puzzle/tension (not broad topic)\\n - Thesis: one-sentence interpretive claim\\n - Roadmap: how the argument proceeds\\n\\n2. Theoretical Framing\\n - Introduce relevant framework(s)\\n - Explain how it will be applied\\n - Do NOT try to cover the entire theory\\n\\n3. Primary Source Analysis\\n - Close reading / formal analysis with specific examples\\n - Integrate theoretical concepts into analysis (not separate sections)\\n - Use textual/artistic evidence for every interpretive claim\\n\\n4. Discussion\\n - Broader implications of the interpretation\\n - How this challenges/extends existing scholarship\\n - Limitations: what doesn't this interpretation capture?\\n\\n5. Conclusion\\n - Restate thesis in broader context\\n - No new evidence or arguments\\n - Open questions for future scholarship\\n```\\n\\n## Engineering + Humanities Crossover\\n\\nFor work combining technical and humanistic approaches (e.g., AI art, digital humanities):\\n\\n```\\n1. Define the interdisciplinary gap:\\n \\\"Technical X offers Y, but current humanistic scholarship ignores/不理解...\\\"\\n \\n2. Bridge explicitly:\\n \\\"This paper brings [technical method] into dialogue with [humanistic tradition]\\\"\\n\\n3. Structure for dual audience:\\n - Articulate humanistic contribution first (make it accessible)\\n - Then show how technical work enables new humanistic insight\\n - Or: show how humanistic theory reframes how we understand technical work\\n\\n4. Common mistake to avoid:\\n - Don't just describe both; show their synthesis\\n - Reviewer from each field should learn something from the other\\n```\\n\\n## Quality Gates for Humanities Writing\\n\\n| Check | Standard |\\n|-------|----------|\\n| Argument | One clear thesis stated in intro, defended throughout |\\n| Evidence | Every interpretive claim linked to specific source/example |\\n| Theory | Framework applied, not just mentioned |\\n| Sources | No vague citations; all claims attributed |\\n| Coherence | Each paragraph advances the argument |\\n| Register | Consistent formal academic tone throughout |\\n\", \"path\": \"research/humanities-research/SKILL.md\", \"skill_dir\": \"/home/kuhnn/.hermes/skills/research/humanities-research\", \"linked_files\": null, \"usage_hint\": null, \"required_environment_variables\": [], \"required_commands\": [], \"missing_required_environment_variables\": [], \"missing_credential_files\": [], \"missing_required_commands\": [], \"setup_needed\": false, \"setup_skipped\": false, \"readiness_status\": \"available\", \"metadata\": {\"hermes\": {\"tags\": [\"Humanities\", \"Philosophy\", \"Social Science\", \"Art\", \"Interpretive\", \"Primary Sources\", \"Theory\", \"Bilingual\"], \"category\": \"research\", \"related_skills\": [\"openalex\", \"academic-writing\", \"arxiv\"], \"requires_toolsets\": [\"terminal\", \"web\"]}}}",

tools into [their creative practice], and what does this reveal about [creative cognition / authorship]?\\\"\\n```\\n→ Requires: ethnographic/qualitative study\\n\\n### Pattern 3: Art Historical / Theoretical\\n```\\n\\\"How does [AI-generated work] reconfigure [established concepts of authorship / creativity / authenticity]?\\\"\\n```\\n→ Requires: theoretical framework + close reading\\n\\n### Pattern 4: Cultural / Social Impact\\n```\\n\\\"What ethical and aesthetic concerns arise from [widespread AI art generation], and how do [artists/institutions] respond?\\\"\\n```\\n→ Requires: discourse analysis or qualitative interviews\\n\\n## Evaluation Methods\\n\\n### Computational Evaluation\\n| Method | What It Measures | Tools |\\n|--------|-----------------|-------|\\n| FID / IS | Diversity and quality of generated images | `torchmetrics`, `clean-fid` |\\n| User Study (Likert) | Perceived creativity, aesthetics, novelty | surveys, statistical analysis |\\n| Expert Evaluation | Artistic merit, technical innovation | rubric-based review |\\n| Market/Adoption Analysis | Cultural impact, usage patterns | dataset analysis |\\n\\n### Qualitative Evaluation\\n| Method | What It Measures | Notes |\\n|--------|-----------------|-------|\\n| Artist Interviews | Process, intention, tool relationship | IRB, consent critical |\\n| Discourse Analysis | How AI art is discussed/critiqued | Critical theory lens |\\n| Exhibition Review | Reception, context, institutional framing | Case study method |\\n\\n### Aesthetic Theory Frameworks\\n- **Berys Gaut**: Creativity as making something that is both novel and valuable\\n- **Margaret Boden**: Combinational, exploratory, transformational creativity\\n- **Levi Bryant**: Object-oriented aesthetics — autonomy of the artwork\\n- **Claire Bishop**: Relational aesthetics, participation, spectacle\\n\\n## Key Theoretical Concepts\\n\\n### Authorship & Creativity\\n| Concept | Thinkers | Key Question |\\n|---------|---------|---------------|\\n| Death of the author | Barthes, Foucault | Does AI dissolve authorial identity? |\\n| Distributed creativity | CPS | Is AI a creative partner, tool, or medium? |\\n| Authenticity | Baudrillard, Benjamin | Can AI work have aura or authenticity? |\\n| Aesthetic judgment | Kant | Does AI require sensibility or taste? |\\n\\n### Technical Concepts (for Humanities Researchers)\\n\\n| Concept | Plain English | Relevance |\\n|---------|--------------|-----------|\\n| Diffusion Models | Learns to reverse noise → image | Basis of Stable Diffusion, Midjourney |\\n| CLIP | Connects images and text | Foundation of text-to-image |\\n| GAN | Two networks compete to generate | Classic generative approach |\\n| Style Transfer | Apply artistic style to content | Gatys et al. 2015 |\\n| Prompt Engineering | Crafting text inputs for AI art | New form of artistic practice? |\\n\\n## Search Commands\\n\\n### Quick Literature Search\\n\\n```bash\\n#

technical and humanistic reviewers:\\n\\n### Structure for Interdisciplinary Work\\n\\n```\\nAbstract:\\n - Lead with the humanistic/artistic contribution (accessible hook)\\n - Mention the technical method briefly\\n - End with broader implications\\n\\nIntroduction:\\n - Start with art/culture problem (not technical problem)\\n - Frame as: \\\"This intersection of [artistic question] and [technical capability]...\\\"\\n\\nRelated Work:\\n - Two clear sections: (1) Art/HCI literature, (2) Technical/ML literature\\n - Bridge: show what technical work is missing from art discourse\\n\\nMethods:\\n - Technical: describe system/model clearly\\n - Humanistic: describe evaluation methodology clearly\\n - Avoid jargon that neither field shares\\n\\nResults:\\n - Present technical and humanistic results separately\\n - Connect: how do the humanistic findings respond to the technical?\\n\\nDiscussion:\\n - Bidirectional: what does this tell [technical field]? What does it tell [art field]?\\n\\nConclusion:\\n - Art/method/broader impact in that order\\n```\\n\\n### Common Rejection Reasons\\n\\n| Reason | Fix |\\n|--------|-----|\\n| \\\"Not enough technical depth\\\" | Add ablative analysis, baselines, metrics |\\n| \\\"Not enough art theory\\\" | Engage substantively with art criticism, not just describe work |\\n| \\\"Unclear contribution\\\" | Lead with the interdisciplinary synthesis, not two separate contributions |\\n| \\\"Missing related work\\\" | Cover both HCI/arts AND ML venues |\\n\\n## Ethical Considerations\\n\\n| Issue | Considerations |\\n|-------|----------------|\\n| Training data consent | Are artists credited/compensated for training data? |\\n| Style mimicry | Does AI copying artistic style undermine originality? |\\n| Aesthetic homogenization | Does AI reinforce dominant aesthetics? |\\n| Human artist displacement | Economic and cultural impact on creative workers |\\n| Authorship attribution | Who owns AI-generated work? |\\n\\n## Tools Reference\\n\\n| Tool | Purpose |\\n|------|---------|\\n| `arxiv` skill | ML/AI generative models papers |\\n| `openalex` skill | Cross-disciplinary (art, HCI, media theory) |\\n| `academic-writing` skill | General academic writing framework |\\n| `humanities-research` skill | Interpretive methods, theoretical frameworks |\\n\", \"path\": \"research/digital-arts-research/SKILL.md\", \"skill_dir\": \"/home/kuhnn/.hermes/skills/research/digital-arts-research\", \"linked_files\": null, \"usage_hint\": null, \"required_environment_variables\": [], \"required_commands\": [], \"missing_required_environment_variables\": [], \"missing_credential_files\": [], \"missing_required_commands\": [], \"setup_needed\": false, \"setup_skipped\": false, \"readiness_status\": \"available\", \"metadata\": {\"hermes\": {\"tags\": [\"AI Art\", \"Computational Art\", \"Generative Art\", \"Creative AI\", \"Digital Humanities\", \"Human-AI Collaboration\", \"Aesthetics\"], \"category\": \"research\", \"related_skills\": [\"openalex\", \"arxiv\", \"academic-writing\", \"humanities-research\"], \"requires_toolsets\": [\"terminal\", \"web\"]}}}",

But I can't directly read a non-skill file using skill_manage.\n \nI've hit the constraint where I can't directly verify the script, but I documented the curl-based approach in the skill since that was the working solution we confirmed. The actual script file exists in the system from our previous work, but I can't inspect it directly in this review. I'm realizing the actual script was written and tested earlier in the session—it used curl subprocess and returned successful results with 3 papers found. Since I can't verify the current state of that script file, I'll just document that the skill now correctly directs to use curl for API calls in this environment, which is the key fix needed. I'm realizing the core issue is that I need to focus on what actually changed rather than trying to verify the script's current state. The OpenAlex skill was correctly patched to use curl instead of urllib, and that's the meaningful update from this review. Since the working implementation is documented, I can note what was fixed without needing to re-read the script itself.",
