short

Manually-invoked skill that forces the agent to compress its current answer — strip filler, simplify wording, and cut length while keeping the substance. Use when the user says "short", "shorter", "simpler", "too long", "tl;dr", or wants a more concise version of the previous response.

agent-self-scheduling

Make an AI agent run on a schedule, loop, or interval — cron, heartbeats, recurring autonomous checks. Use for "run every N minutes", "schedule a task", "run on a loop", "heartbeat". Covers external clocks (Claude Code, Codex, Pi) vs Hermes' built-in scheduler.

bb-subagents

Launch a new bb worker thread with an explicit project, provider, model, reasoning effort, fast/default tier, worktree, and prompt. Use when the user says "launch a bb session", "bb subagent", "spawn a bb thread", "new worktree agent", or asks to run Grok/Codex/Cursor CLI in bb on a repo. Differentiator vs bb-cli: this is only the spawn recipe. Differentiator vs codex-subagent/launch-subagent: those are Codex CLI and Cursor Task tool, not bb threads.

cmux

Control the cmux macOS terminal app (CLI + socket API) — cmux workspaces, panes, surfaces, browser automation, notifications, settings, hooks. MUST be read before running any `cmux` command. Trigger ONLY when the user explicitly says "cmux" — a cmux pane, cmux workspace, cmux surface, or an agent running in cmux. Do NOT trigger on generic mentions of "workspace", "pane", "the other agent", or "delegate" when cmux is not named — workspaces in tmux, Ghostty, herdr, VS Code, etc. are NOT cmux. macOS only (14.0+).
