Working with Skills

Skills are on-demand knowledge documents that teach Hermes how to handle specific tasks — from generating ASCII art to managing GitHub PRs. This guide walks you through using them day to day.

For the full technical reference, see Skills System.


Finding Skills

Every Hermes installation ships with bundled skills. See what's available:

bash
# In any chat session:
/skills

# Or from the CLI:
hermes skills list

This shows a compact list with names and descriptions:

ascii-art         Generate ASCII art using pyfiglet, cowsay, boxes...
arxiv             Search and retrieve academic papers from arXiv...
github-pr-workflow Full PR lifecycle — create branches, commit...
plan              Plan mode — inspect context, write a markdown...
excalidraw        Create hand-drawn style diagrams using Excalidraw...

Searching for a Skill

bash
# Search by keyword
/skills search docker
/skills search music

The Skills Hub

Official optional skills (heavier or niche skills not active by default) are available via the Hub:

bash
# Browse official optional skills
/skills browse

# Search the hub
/skills search blockchain

Using a Skill

Every installed skill is automatically a slash command. Just type its name:

bash
# Load a skill and give it a task
/ascii-art Make a banner that says "HELLO WORLD"
/plan Design a REST API for a todo app
/github-pr-workflow Create a PR for the auth refactor

# Just the skill name (no task) loads it and lets you describe what you need
/excalidraw

You can also trigger skills through natural conversation — ask Hermes to use a specific skill, and it will load it via the skill_view tool.

Progressive Disclosure

Skills use a token-efficient loading pattern. The agent doesn't load everything at once:

  1. skills_list() — compact list of all skills (~3k tokens). Loaded at session start.
  2. skill_view(name) — full SKILL.md...
