  2. Edit config.yaml to point at local llama-server or Ollama
  3. Write SOUL.md for the profile
  4. Create skin

Config Pattern

  default: gemma4
  provider: ollama
  # OR for TurboQuant llama-server:

Acceptance Criteria

Stale check: this is unblocked on the TQ-1 / Ollama path now that #31 is closed, and the parent epic #30 is already closed.

I am not taking the full profile build in this bounded burn cycle. The next smallest proof-bearing slice is:

  1. hermes profile create gemma4-local --clone
  2. point config.yaml at the local Gemma 4 backend already validated in the TQ lane
  3. post hermes doctor output plus one real chat transcript here

Leaving this open as the next actionable handoff instead of letting it sit silent.`
