Authored by unmodeled-tyler. Adds openclaw-migration skill to optional-skills/
with migration script, SKILL.md, and 7 tests. Also improves clarify/approval
panel rendering with dynamic width calculation.
MCP server subprocess env is filtered through _build_safe_env() which
only passes safe baseline vars (PATH, HOME, XDG_*) plus whatever is
explicitly in the config's env: block. Env vars from ~/.hermes/.env
are NOT inherited by MCP subprocesses. The key must go directly in
the config.yaml mcp_servers.agentmail.env section.
AgentMail requires a third-party API key (free tier available, paid
plans from $20/mo) — not appropriate for bundled skills that show
up in every user's system prompt.
Added a Requirements section at the top with clear instructions
to add AGENTMAIL_API_KEY to ~/.hermes/.env. Streamlined setup steps
to avoid duplicating the key in both .env and config.yaml.
Enhancements to the Solana blockchain skill (PR #212 by gizdusum):
- CoinGecko price integration (free, no API key)
- Wallet shows tokens with USD values, sorted by value
- Token info includes price and market cap
- Transaction details show USD amounts for balance changes
- Whale detector shows USD alongside SOL amounts
- Stats includes SOL price and market cap
- New `price` command for quick lookups by symbol or mint
- Smart wallet output
- Tokens sorted by USD value (highest first)
- Default limit of 20 tokens (--limit N to adjust)
- Dust filtering (< $0.01 tokens hidden, count shown)
- --all flag to see everything
- --no-prices flag for fast RPC-only mode
- NFT summary (count + first 10)
- Portfolio total in USD
- Token name resolution
- 25+ well-known tokens mapped (SOL, USDC, BONK, JUP, etc.)
- CoinGecko fallback for unknown tokens
- Abbreviated mint addresses for unlabeled tokens
- Reliability
- Retry with exponential backoff on 429 rate-limit (RPC + CoinGecko)
- Graceful degradation when price data unavailable
- Capped API calls to respect CoinGecko free-tier limits
- Updated SKILL.md with all new capabilities and flags
Solana blockchain queries are a niche use case — not needed by every user.
Moved from skills/ (bundled) to optional-skills/ (installable via Skills Hub).
Add official optional skill for qmd (tobi/qmd), a local on-device
search engine for personal knowledge bases, notes, docs, and meeting
transcripts.
Covers:
- Installation and setup for macOS and Linux
- Collection management and context annotations
- All search modes: BM25, vector, hybrid with reranking
- MCP integration (stdio and HTTP daemon modes)
- Structured query patterns and best practices
- systemd/launchd service configs for daemon persistence
Placed in optional-skills/ due to heavyweight requirements
(Node >= 22, ~2GB local models).
Introduces a new OpenClaw-to-Hermes migration skill with a Python
helper script that handles importing SOUL.md, memories, user profiles,
messaging settings, command allowlists, skills, TTS assets, and
workspace instructions.
Supports two migration presets (user-data / full), three skill conflict
modes (skip / overwrite / rename), overflow file export for entries that
exceed character limits, and granular include/exclude option filtering.
Includes detailed SKILL.md agent instructions covering the clarify-tool
interaction protocol, decision-to-command mapping, post-run reporting
rules, and path resolution guidance.
Adds dynamic panel width calculation to CLI clarify/approval widgets so
panels adapt to content and terminal size.
Includes 7 new tests covering presets, include/exclude, conflict modes,
overflow exports, and skills_guard integration.
Address code review findings:
Security (Medium):
- Path traversal guard in OptionalSkillSource.fetch() — resolve() and
validate that the path stays within optional-skills/ before reading
Bug fixes (Medium):
- Add 'builtin' to trust_style dicts in do_inspect() and
_resolve_short_name() — official skills now show bright_cyan 'official'
label consistently across all display functions (5/5 dicts fixed)
Edge cases (Low):
- Clamp page_size to [1, 100] in do_browse() to prevent ZeroDivisionError
- Update SkillMeta.source docstring to include 'official'
- Add browse command to optional-skills/DESCRIPTION.md
Add 'optional-skills/' directory for official skills that ship with the repo
but are not copied to ~/.hermes/skills/ during setup. They are:
- NOT shown to the model in the system prompt
- NOT copied during hermes setup/update
- Discoverable via 'hermes skills search' labeled as 'official'
- Installable via 'hermes skills install' with builtin trust (no third-party warning)
- Auto-categorized on install based on directory structure
Implementation:
- OptionalSkillSource adapter in tools/skills_hub.py (search/fetch/inspect)
- Added to create_source_router() as first source (highest priority)
- Trust level 'builtin' for official skills in skills_guard.py
- Friendly install message for official skills (no third-party warning)
- 'official' label in cyan in search results and skill list
First optional skill: Blackbox CLI (autonomous-ai-agents/blackbox)
- Multi-model coding agent with built-in judge/Chairman pattern
- Delegates to Claude, Codex, Gemini, and Blackbox models
- Open-source CLI (GPL-3.0, TypeScript, forked from Gemini CLI)
- Requires paid Blackbox AI API key
