1Password CLI

Use this skill when the user wants secrets managed through 1Password instead of plaintext env vars or files.

Requirements

• 1Password account
• 1Password CLI (op) installed
• One of: desktop app integration, service account token (OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN), or Connect server
• tmux available for stable authenticated sessions during Hermes terminal calls (desktop app flow only)

When to Use

• Install or configure 1Password CLI
• Sign in with op signin
• Read secret references like op://Vault/Item/field
• Inject secrets into config/templates using op inject
• Run commands with secret env vars via op run

Authentication Methods

Service Account (recommended for Hermes)

Set OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN in ${HERMES_HOME:-~/.hermes}/.env (the skill will prompt for this on first load). No desktop app needed. Supports op read, op inject, op run.

export OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN="your-token-here"
op whoami  # verify — should show Type: SERVICE_ACCOUNT

Desktop App Integration (interactive)

1. Enable in 1Password desktop app: Settings → Developer → Integrate with 1Password CLI
2. Ensure app is unlocked
3. Run op signin and approve the biometric prompt

Connect Server (self-hosted)

export OP_CONNECT_HOST="http://localhost:8080"
export OP_CONNECT_TOKEN="your-connect-token"

# macOS
