Generate actual meme images from a topic. Picks a template, writes captions, and renders a real .png file with text overlay.
The script supports any of the ~100 popular imgflip templates by name or ID, plus 10 curated templates with hand-tuned text positioning.
| ID | Name | Fields | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
this-is-fine | This is Fine | top, bottom | chaos, denial |
drake | Drake Hotline Bling | reject, approve | rejecting/preferring |
distracted-boyfriend | Distracted Boyfriend | distraction, current, person | temptation, shifting priorities |
two-buttons | Two Buttons | left, right, person | impossible choice |
expanding-brain | Expanding Brain | 4 levels | escalating irony |
change-my-mind | Change My Mind | statement | hot takes |
woman-yelling-at-cat | Woman Yelling at Cat | woman, cat | arguments |
one-does-not-simply | One Does Not Simply | top, bottom | deceptively hard things |
grus-plan | Gru's Plan | step1-3, realization | plans that backfire |
batman-slapping-robin | Batman Slapping Robin | robin, batman | shutting down bad ideas |
Any template not in the curated list can be used by name or imgflip ID. These get smart default text positioning (top/bottom for 2-field, evenly spaced for 3+). Search with:
python "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/generate_meme.py" --search "disaster"
--search.SKILL_DIR=$(dirname "$(find ~/.hermes/skills -path '*/meme-generation/SKILL.md' 2>/dev/null | head -1)")
python "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/generate_meme.py" <template_id> /tmp/meme.png "caption 1" "caption 2" ...
MEDIA:/tmp/meme.pngUse this when no classic template fits, or when the user wants something original.
image_generate to create a scene that matches the meme concept. Do NOT include any text in the image prompt — text will be added by the script. Describe only the visual scene.--image to overlay text, choosing a mode:
python "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/generate_meme.py" --image /path/to/scene.png /tmp/meme.png "top text" "bottom text"
python "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/generate_meme.py" --image /path/to/scene.png --bars /tmp/meme.png "top text" "bottom text"
--bars when the image is busy/detailed and text would be hard to read on top of it.vision_analyze is available): Check the result looks good:
vision_analyze(image_url="/tmp/meme.png", question="Is the text legible and well-positioned? Does the meme work visually?")
If the vision model flags issues (text hard to read, bad placement, etc.), try the other mode (switch between overlay and bars) or regenerate the scene.MEDIA:/tmp/meme.png"debugging production at 2 AM":

Decomposition playbook + anti-temptation rules for an orchestrator profile routing work through Kanban. The "don't do the work yourself" rule and the basic lifecycle are auto-injected into every kanban worker's system prompt; this skill is the deeper playbook when you're specifically playing the orchestrator role.

Configure and use Honcho memory with Hermes -- cross-session user modeling, multi-profile peer isolation, observation config, dialectic reasoning, session summaries, and context budget enforcement. Use when setting up Honcho, troubleshooting memory, managing profiles with Honcho peers, or tuning observation, recall, and dialectic settings.
Migrate a user's OpenClaw customization footprint into Hermes Agent. Imports Hermes-compatible memories, SOUL.md, command allowlists, user skills, and selected workspace assets from ~/.openclaw, then reports exactly what could not be migrated and why.
Configure, extend, or contribute to Hermes Agent.
