Hermes Trismegistus — Wizard Proposal
Status: 🟡 DEFERRED Issue: #1146 Created: 2026-04-08 Author: Alexander (KT Notes) Mimo Worker: mimo-code-1146-1775851759
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).
Dependencies
| Dependency | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Deadman switch | 🔴 Not done | Must be proven before unblocking |
| Fleet stability | 🟡 In progress | 1+ week uptime needed |
| Shed laptop power | 🔴 Not done | Alexander needs to wire power |
| KT document | 🔴 Not drafted | Alexander provides to Claude at unblock time |
