Oh My Agent Skills: skill pack for Hermes Agent

Installable Hermes-compatible skills and workflow patterns for common agent failures

What Oh My Agent Skills does

Oh My Agent Skills collects installable skills for problems that recur in AI agent setups: saying a task is done without proof, debugging by guess and check, subagents that drift or overlap, cron and alert messages that are hard to read in chat, inconsistent research tool choice, and notes that never become durable knowledge. The skills are grouped into bundles, including engineering-execution, multi-agent-control, chatops-and-ops, skill-engineering, research-and-reading and knowledge-compilation.

The repository is modular, so you can adopt a single skill such as verification-before-completion, one bundle, or the whole library. For Hermes, you copy the skill directory into ~/.hermes/skills under its original category, keeping bundled references, templates, scripts and assets, and call it by name in the task prompt. A source map in docs/source-map.md lists the correct install path for mixed-category bundles. Documentation is available in English and Simplified Chinese.
