OpenDirectory: skill pack for Hermes Agent

Library of 64 marketing and growth skills for founders, installable into Hermes and other agents

What OpenDirectory does

Each skill is a pre-built set of instructions and context that you install into your agent. The README says the library has 64 skills across GTM, growth and developer tooling, and lists examples such as blog-cover-image-cli, cold-email-verifier, cook-the-blog, email-newsletter, human-tone, position-me and pricing-page-psychology-audit. An interactive terminal browser lets you search by category and install in one session.

The npx CLI takes a --target flag to pick the agent: claude, opencode, codex, gemini, anti-gravity, openclaw or hermes, and the README also mentions Manus AI as a target. An alternative route uses skills.sh with npx skills add. The skills cover tasks such as verifying cold emails, drafting HTML newsletters, writing MDX growth case studies, auditing SaaS pricing pages against pricing psychology principles and scraping daily job listings, so a founder can add a specific marketing capability without writing the instructions.
