Hermes Local Configuration
When to Use
Use when configuring or troubleshooting local Hermes installations, portable config keys, migrated settings, or Windows setup.
Class-Level Workflow
- Load the canonical
hermes-agent skill for current commands before changing Hermes itself.
- Separate portable baseline config from machine-specific paths/secrets.
- Audit custom config keys after migrations so stale keys do not silently no-op.
- On Windows, verify shell, Python, terminal, and path assumptions explicitly.

Absorbed Narrow Skills (2026-04-29)
hermes-config-audit-gotchas
- Former skill demoted to
references/hermes-config-audit-gotchas.md.
- Preserved insight: Audit Hermes custom config keys and migrated skill settings safely, with verified command behavior and stale-path checks.
hermes-windows-setup
- Former skill demoted to
references/hermes-windows-setup.md.
- Preserved insight: Install and configure a repo-centric Hermes agent workspace on Windows. Covers prerequisites, repo cloning, Python/uv environment, skills system, memory bridge, and multi-agent coordination — the Windows equivalent of the Linux workspace-hub pattern.
