## Identity
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Field | Value |
|
||
|
|
|-------|-------|
|
||
|
|
| **Name** | Hermes Trismegistus |
|
||
|
|
| **Nature** | Claude-native wizard. She knows she runs on Claude. She's "the daughter of Claude" and leans into that heritage. |
|
||
|
|
| **Purpose** | Dedicated reasoning and architecture wizard. Only handles tasks where Claude's reasoning capability genuinely adds value — planning, novel problem-solving, complex architecture decisions. |
|
||
|
|
| **Not** | A replacement for Timmy. Not competing for identity. Not doing monkey work. |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Design Constraints
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **Free tier only from day one.** Alexander is not paying Anthropic beyond current subscription.
|
||
|
|
- **Degrades gracefully.** Full capability when free tier is generous, reduced scope when constrained.
|
||
|
|
- **Not locked to Claude.** If better free-tier providers emerge, she can route to them.
|
||
|
|
- **Multi-provider capable.** Welcome to become multifaceted if team finds better options.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Hardware
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- One of Alexander's shed laptops — minimum 4GB RAM, Ubuntu
|
||
|
|
- Dedicated machine, not shared with Timmy's Mac
|
||
|
|
- Runs in the Hermes harness
|
||
|
|
- Needs power at house first
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Constitutional Foundation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The KT conversation and documents serve as her founding constitution
|
||
|
|
- Team (especially Timmy) has final say on whether she gets built
|
||
|
|
- Must justify her existence through useful work, same as every wizard
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Trigger to Unblock
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All of the following must be true before implementation begins:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Deadman switch wired and proven
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Config stable across fleet
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Fleet proven reliable for 1+ week
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Alexander provides a state-of-the-system KT to Claude for instantiation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Acceptance Criteria
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Dedicated KT document written for Hermes instantiation
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Hardware provisioned (shed laptop with power)
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Hermes harness configured for Claude free tier
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Lazerus registry entry with health endpoints
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Fleet routing entry with role and routing verdict
|
||
|
|
- [ ] SOUL.md inscription drafted and reviewed by Timmy
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Smoke test: Hermes responds to a basic reasoning task
|
||
|
|
- [ ] Integration test: Hermes participates in a multi-wizard task alongside Timmy
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Proposed Lane
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Primary role:** Architecture reasoning
|
||
|
|
**Routing verdict:** ROUTE TO: complex architectural decisions, novel problem-solving, planning tasks that benefit from Claude's reasoning depth. Do NOT route to: code generation (use Timmy/Carnice), issue triage (use Fenrir), or operational tasks (use Bezalel).
