Ich würde sagen: **Agenten sind die aktuellste *etablierte* Generation** – aber die nächste Welle rollt schon an.\n\nKurzer Überblick der Evolution:\n\n1. **Chat-Modelle** (2022–23) – Prompt rein, Antwort raus. One-shot.\n2. **RAG / Tool-Use** (2023–24) – Modelle rufen APIs auf, lesen Dokumente.\n3. **Agenten** (2024–jetzt) – Autonom, mehrschrittig, planen + Tools + Feedback-Loops. Das ist wo wir sind.\n4. **Was kommt gerade auf** – Multi-Agent-Systeme, \"Agent-Native\" Plattformen, Compound AI Systems (mehrere Modelle + Code + externe Systeme als Einheit), und MCP als Standard-Protokoll damit Agenten untereinander und mit Tools reden können.\n\nPraktisch gesehen: Reine Chat-KI fühlt sich schon alt an. Agenten sind der Standard für alles was mehr als nur Text braucht. Aber wir sehen schon den Horizont von dem was danach kommt – Agenten die ganze Teams koordinieren, Systeme die sich selbst verbessern, OS-Level Integration.\n\nWir mit Hermes sind da übrigens ziemlich weit vorne – Skills als Gedächtnis, MCP, cross-session Memory, Cron-Agenten. Das ist schon mehr \"Agent Platform\" als nur \"Agent\".\n\nWas meinst du – siehst du im Alltag schon was von der nächsten Welle oder dominiert bei dir noch das klassische Agent-Modell?",
"reasoning": "Der Boss fragt nach der Entwicklung von KI-Nutzungsparadigmen – ob Agenten die neueste Generation sind oder ob es schon neuere Ansätze gibt. Das ist eine eher philosophische/analytische Frage, nicht unbedingt eine, die ein spezifisches Skill erfordert. Ich kann das aus meinem Wissen beantworten.\n\nIch sollte eine durchdachte, aber nicht zu akademische Antwort geben. Der Boss mag es nicht zu langatmig.\n\nLass mich die Evolution kurz skizzieren:\n1. Generative KI (ChatGPT-Ära) – prompting, single-turn oder simple multi-turn\n2. RAG / Tool-using LLMs – Modelle die APIs/Tools aufrufen können\n3. Agenten – autonom, multi-step, planend, mit Tool-Nutzung und Feedback-Loops\n4. Was kommt danach? Multi-Agent-Systeme, Agent Swarms, \"Agentic Organizations\", vielleicht even \"Agent-Native\" Anwendungen wo die gesamte Architektur um Agenten herum gebaut ist\n\nNeuere Trends die über klassische Agenten hinausgehen:\n- **Agent-Native Applications**: Apps die von Grund auf für Agenten designed sind, nicht nur LLMs mit Tools\n- **Compound AI Systems**: Mehrere Modelle + Programmlogik + externe Systeme als Einheit\n- **Self-improving/self-modifying agents**: Agenten die ihren eigenen Code/Prompts schreiben und verbessern\n- **Agentic Operating Systems**: OS-Level Integration von Agenten (wie wir es mit Hermes und ZimaOS sehen)\n- **MCP (Model Context Protocol)**: Standardisierung wie Agenten mit Tools/Daten kommunizieren – quasi \"USB für KI\"\n\nIch würde sagen: Agenten sind die *aktuellste etablierte* Nutzungs-Generation. Aber es gibt bereits die nächste Welle, die sich formt – multi-agent orchestration, agent-native platforms, und compound AI systems. Wir sind quasi mitten im \"Agenten-Zeitalter\" aber sehen schon den Horizont von dem was danach kommt.\n\nInteressanterweise sind wir mit Hermes ja selbst an der Grenze – wir machen ja genau das: Agenten bauen die andere Agenten steuern, mit MCP integration, Skills als \"Agenten-Muskelgedächtnis\", cross-session memory. Das ist schon eher \"Agent Platform\" als nur \"Agent\".\n\nIch sollte das auf Deutsch und nicht zu technisch runterbrechen. Boss mag klare, direkte Antworten."

It belongs to the same category as Claude Code (Anthropic), Codex (OpenAI), and OpenClaw — autonomous coding and task-execution agents that use tool calling to interact with your system. Hermes works with any LLM provider (OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, local models, and 15+ others) and runs on Linux, macOS, and WSL.\\n\\nWhat makes Hermes different:\\n\\n- **Self-improving through skills** — Hermes learns from experience by saving reusable procedures as skills. When it solves a complex problem, discovers a workflow, or gets corrected, it can persist that knowledge as a skill document that loads into future sessions. Skills accumulate over time, making the agent better at your specific tasks and environment.\\n- **Persistent memory across sessions** — remembers who you are, your preferences, environment details, and lessons learned. Pluggable memory backends (built-in, Honcho, Mem0, and more) let you choose how memory works.\\n- **Multi-platform gateway** — the same agent runs on Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix, Email, and 10+ other platforms with full tool access, not just chat.\\n- **Provider-agnostic** — swap models and providers mid-workflow without changing anything else. Credential pools rotate across multiple API keys automatically.\\n- **Profiles** — run multiple independent Hermes instances with isolated configs, sessions, skills, and memory.\\n- **Extensible** — plugins, MCP servers, custom tools, webhook triggers, cron scheduling, and the full Python ecosystem.\\n\\nPeople use Hermes for software development, research, system administration, data analysis, content creation, home automation, and anything else that benefits from an AI agent with persistent context and full system access.\\n\\n**This skill helps you work with Hermes Agent effectively** — setting it up, configuring features, spawning additional agent instances, troubleshooting issues, finding the right commands and settings, and understanding how the system works when you need to extend or contribute to it.\\n\\n**Docs:** https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/\\n\\n## Quick Start\\n\\n```bash\\n# Install\\ncurl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash\\n\\n# Interactive chat (default)\\nhermes\\n\\n# Single query\\nhermes chat -q \\\"What is the capital of France?\\\"\\n\\n# Setup wizard\\nhermes setup\\n\\n# Change model/provider\\nhermes model\\n\\n# Check health\\nhermes doctor\\n```\\n\\n---\\n\\n## CLI Reference\\n\\n### Global Flags\\n\\n```\\nhermes [flags] [command]\\n\\n --version, -V Show version\\n --resume, -r SESSION Resume session by ID or title\\n --continue, -c [NAME] Resume by name, or most recent session\\n --worktree, -w Isolated git worktree mode (parallel agents)\\n --skills, -s SKILL Preload skills (comma-separate or repeat)\\n --profile, -p NAME Use a named profile\\n --yolo Skip dangerous command approval\\n --pass-session-id Include session ID in system prompt\\n```\\n\\nNo subcommand defaults to `chat`.\\n\\n### Chat\\n\\n```\\nhermes chat [flags]\\n -q, --query TEXT Single query, non-interactive\\n -m, --model MODEL Model (e.g. anthropic/claude-sonnet-4)\\n -t, --toolsets LIST Comma-separated toolsets\\n --provider PROVIDER Force provider (openrouter, anthropic, nous, etc.)\\n -v, --verbose Verbose output\\n -Q, --quiet Suppress banner, spinner, tool previews\\n --checkpoints Enable filesystem checkpoints (/rollback)\\n --source TAG Session source tag (default: cli)\\n```\\n\\n### Configuration\\n\\n```\\nhermes setup [section] Interactive wizard (model|terminal|gateway|tools|agent)\\nhermes model Interactive model/provider picker\\nhermes config View current config\\nhermes config edit Open config.yaml in $EDITOR\\nhermes config set KEY VAL Set a config value\\nhermes config path Print config.yaml path\\nhermes config env-path Print .env path\\nhermes config check Check for missing/outdated config\\nhermes config migrate Update config with new options\\nhermes login [--provider P] OAuth login (nous, openai-codex)\\nhermes logout Clear stored auth\\nhermes doctor [--fix] Check dependencies and config\\nhermes status [--all] Show component status\\n```\\n\\n### Tools & Skills\\n\\n```\\nhermes tools Interactive tool enable/disable (curses UI)\\nhermes tools list Show all tools and status\\nhermes tools enable NAME Enable a toolset\\nhermes tools disable NAME Disable a toolset\\n\\nhermes skills list List installed skills\\nhermes skills search QUERY Search the skills hub\\nhermes skills install ID Install a skill (ID can be a hub identifier OR a direct https://…/SKILL.md URL; pass --name to override when frontmatter has no name)\\nhermes skills inspect ID Preview without installing\\nhermes skills config Enable/disable skills per platform\\nhermes skills check Check for updates\\nhermes skills update Update outdated skills\\nhermes skills uninstall N Remove a hub skill\\nhermes skills publish PATH Publish to registry\\nhermes skills browse Browse all available skills\\nhermes skills tap add REPO Add a GitHub repo as skill source\\n```\\n\\n### MCP Servers\\n\\n```\\nhermes mcp serve Run Hermes as an MCP server\\nhermes mcp add NAME Add an MCP server (--url or --command)\\nhermes mcp remove NAME Remove an MCP server\\nhermes mcp list List configured servers\\nhermes mcp test NAME Test connection\\nhermes mcp configure NAME Toggle tool selection\\n```\\n\\n### Gateway (Messaging Platforms)\\n\\n```\\nhermes gateway run Start gateway foreground\\nhermes gateway install Install as background service\\nhermes gateway start/stop Control the service\\nhermes gateway restart Restart the service\\nhermes gateway status Check status\\nhermes gateway setup Configure platforms\\n```\\n\\nSupported platforms: Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Email, SMS, Matrix, Mattermost, Home Assistant, DingTalk, Feishu, WeCom, BlueBubbles (iMessage), Weixin (WeChat), API Server, Webhooks.

They do NOT apply mid-conversation to preserve prompt caching.\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Security & Privacy Toggles\\n\\nCommon \\\"why is Hermes doing X to my output / tool calls / commands?\\\" toggles — and the exact commands to change them. Most of these need a fresh session (`/reset` in chat, or start a new `hermes` invocation) because they're read once at startup.\\n\\n### Secret redaction in tool output\\n\\nSecret redaction is **off by default** — tool output (terminal stdout, `read_file`, web content, subagent summaries, etc.) passes through unmodified. If the user wants Hermes to auto-mask strings that look like API keys, tokens, and secrets before they enter the conversation context and logs:\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set security.redact_secrets true # enable globally\\n```\\n\\n**Restart required.** `security.redact_secrets` is snapshotted at import time — toggling it mid-session (e.g. via `export HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS=true` from a tool call) will NOT take effect for the running process. Tell the user to run `hermes config set security.redact_secrets true` in a terminal, then start a new session. This is deliberate — it prevents an LLM from flipping the toggle on itself mid-task.\\n\\nDisable again with:\\n```bash\\nhermes config set security.redact_secrets false\\n```\\n\\n### PII redaction in gateway messages\\n\\nSeparate from secret redaction. When enabled, the gateway hashes user IDs and strips phone numbers from the session context before it reaches the model:\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set privacy.redact_pii true # enable\\nhermes config set privacy.redact_pii false # disable (default)\\n```\\n\\n### Command approval prompts\\n\\nBy default (`approvals.mode: manual`), Hermes prompts the user before running shell commands flagged as destructive (`rm -rf`, `git reset --hard`, etc.). The modes are:\\n\\n- `manual` — always prompt (default)\\n- `smart` — use an auxiliary LLM to auto-approve low-risk commands, prompt on high-risk\\n- `off` — skip all approval prompts (equivalent to `--yolo`)\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set approvals.mode smart # recommended middle ground\\nhermes config set approvals.mode off # bypass everything (not recommended)\\n```\\n\\nPer-invocation bypass without changing config:\\n- `hermes --yolo …`\\n- `export HERMES_YOLO_MODE=1`\\n\\nNote: YOLO / `approvals.mode: off` does NOT turn off secret redaction. They are independent.\\n\\n### Shell hooks allowlist\\n\\nSome shell-hook integrations require explicit allowlisting before they fire. Managed via `~/.hermes/shell-hooks-allowlist.json` — prompted interactively the first time a hook wants to run.\\n\\n### Disabling the web/browser/image-gen tools\\n\\nTo keep the model away from network or media tools entirely, open `hermes tools` and toggle per-platform.

Quick reference\\nhere; full developer notes live in `AGENTS.md`, user-facing docs under\\n`website/docs/user-guide/features/`.\\n\\n### Delegation (`delegate_task`)\\n\\nSynchronous subagent spawn — the parent waits for the child's summary\\nbefore continuing its own loop. Isolated context + terminal session.\\n\\n- **Single:** `delegate_task(goal, context, toolsets)`.\\n- **Batch:** `delegate_task(tasks=[{goal, ...}, ...])` runs children in\\n parallel, capped by `delegation.max_concurrent_children` (default 3).\\n- **Roles:** `leaf` (default; cannot re-delegate) vs `orchestrator`\\n (can spawn its own workers, bounded by `delegation.max_spawn_depth`).\\n- **Not durable.** If the parent is interrupted, the child is\\n cancelled. For work that must outlive the turn, use `cronjob` or\\n `terminal(background=True, notify_on_complete=True)`.\\n\\nConfig: `delegation.*` in `config.yaml`.\\n\\n### Cron (scheduled jobs)\\n\\nDurable scheduler — `cron/jobs.py` + `cron/scheduler.py`. Drive it via\\nthe `cronjob` tool, the `hermes cron` CLI (`list`, `add`, `edit`,\\n`pause`, `resume`, `run`, `remove`), or the `/cron` slash command.\\n\\n- **Schedules:** duration (`\\\"30m\\\"`, `\\\"2h\\\"`), \\\"every\\\" phrase\\n (`\\\"every monday 9am\\\"`), 5-field cron (`\\\"0 9 * * *\\\"`), or ISO timestamp.\\n- **Per-job knobs:** `skills`, `model`/`provider` override, `script`\\n (pre-run data collection; `no_agent=True` makes the script the whole\\n job), `context_from` (chain job A's output into job B), `workdir`\\n (run in a specific dir with its `AGENTS.md` / `CLAUDE.md` loaded),\\n multi-platform delivery.\\n- **Invariants:** 3-minute hard interrupt per run, `.tick.lock` file\\n prevents duplicate ticks across processes, cron sessions pass\\n `skip_memory=True` by default, and cron deliveries are framed with a\\n header/footer instead of being mirrored into the target gateway\\n session (keeps role alternation intact).\\n\\nUser docs: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/cron\\n\\n### Curator (skill lifecycle)\\n\\nBackground maintenance for agent-created skills. Tracks usage, marks\\nidle skills stale, archives stale ones, keeps a pre-run tar.gz backup\\nso nothing is lost.\\n\\n- **CLI:** `hermes curator ` — `status`, `run`, `pause`, `resume`,\\n `pin`, `unpin`, `archive`, `restore`, `prune`, `backup`, `rollback`.\\n- **Slash:** `/curator ` mirrors the CLI.\\n- **Scope:** only touches skills with `created_by: \\\"agent\\\"` provenance.\\n Bundled + hub-installed skills are off-limits. **Never deletes** —\\n max destructive action is archive. Pinned skills are exempt from\\n every auto-transition and every LLM review pass.\\n- **Telemetry:** sidecar at `~/.hermes/skills/.usage.json` holds\\n per-skill `use_count`, `view_count`, `patch_count`,\\n `last_activity_at`, `state`, `pinned`.\\n\\nConfig: `curator.*` (`enabled`, `interval_hours`, `min_idle_hours`,\\n`stale_after_days`, `archive_after_days`, `backup.*`).\\nUser docs: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/curator\\n\\n### Kanban (multi-agent work queue)\\n\\nDurable SQLite board for multi-profile / multi-worker collaboration.\\nUsers drive it via `hermes kanban `; dispatcher-spawned workers\\nsee a focused `kanban_*` toolset gated by `HERMES_KANBAN_TASK` so the\\nschema footprint is zero outside worker processes.\\n\\n- **CLI verbs (common):** `init`, `create`, `list` (alias `ls`),\\n `show`, `assign`, `link`, `unlink`, `comment`, `complete`, `block`,\\n `unblock`, `archive`, `tail`. Less common: `watch`, `stats`, `runs`,\\n `log`, `dispatch`, `daemon`, `gc`.\\n- **Worker toolset:** `kanban_show`, `kanban_complete`, `kanban_block`,\\n `kanban_heartbeat`, `kanban_comment`, `kanban_create`, `kanban_link`.\\n- **Dispatcher** runs inside the gateway by default\\n (`kanban.dispatch_in_gateway: true`) — reclaims stale claims,\\n promotes ready tasks, atomically claims, spawns assigned profiles.\\n Auto-blocks a task after ~5 consecutive spawn failures.\\n- **Isolation:** board is the hard boundary (workers get\\n `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` pinned in env); tenant is a soft namespace\\n within a board for workspace-path + memory-key isolation.\\n\\nUser docs: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/kanban\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Troubleshooting\\n\\n### Voice not working\\n1. Check `stt.enabled: true` in config.yaml\\n2. Verify provider: `pip install faster-whisper` or set API key\\n3. In gateway: `/restart`. In CLI: exit and relaunch.\\n\\n### Tool not available\\n1. `hermes tools` — check if toolset is enabled for your platform\\n2. Some tools need env vars (check `.env`)\\n3. `/reset` after enabling tools\\n\\n### Model/provider issues\\n1. `hermes doctor` — check config and dependencies\\n2. `hermes login` — re-authenticate OAuth providers\\n3. Check `.env` has the right API key\\n4. **Copilot 403**: `gh auth login` tokens do NOT work for Copilot API. You must use the Copilot-specific OAuth device code flow via `hermes model` → GitHub Copilot.\\n\\n### Credential management (`.env` writing)\\n\\nWhen `hermes` CLI is unavailable and `write_file` is blocked on credential files, writing secrets to `.env` requires terminal-based approaches. Full guide: `references/credential-management.md` — covers safe append vs. dangerous overwrite, sandbox limitations, and 401 troubleshooting.\\n\\n### Changes not taking effect\\n- **Tools/skills:** `/reset` starts a new session with updated toolset\\n- **Config changes:** In gateway: `/restart`. In CLI: exit and relaunch.\\n- **Code changes:** Restart the CLI or gateway process\\n\\n### Skills not showing\\n1. `hermes skills list` — verify installed\\n2. `hermes skills config` — check platform enablement\\n3. Load explicitly: `/skill name` or `hermes -s name`\\n\\n### Gateway issues\\nCheck logs first:\\n```bash\\ngrep -i \\\"failed to send\\\\|error\\\" ~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log | tail -20\\n```\\n\\n**Gateway completely dead / won't start?** See `references/gateway-outage-recovery.md` — 4-item checklist covering .env vars, config.yaml gateway section, and stale PID/lock cleanup.\\n\\nCommon gateway problems:\\n- **Gateway dies on SSH logout**: Enable linger: `sudo loginctl enable-linger $USER`\\n- **Gateway dies on WSL2 close**: WSL2 requires `systemd=true` in `/etc/wsl.conf` for systemd services to work. Without it, gateway falls back to `nohup` (dies when session closes).\\n- **Gateway crash loop**: Reset the failed state: `systemctl --user reset-failed hermes-gateway`\\n\\n### Session Recovery After Gateway Restart\\nIf the gateway restarts and `session_search` returns no results, **session data is NOT lost** — the in-memory index was cleared but the on-disk files remain.\\n\\n**Where to look:**\\n- `~/.hermes/sessions/*.jsonl` — raw session transcripts (one file per session)\\n- `~/.hermes/memories/USER.md` and `MEMORY.md` — persisted user profile and environment facts\\n- `~/.hermes/AGENTS.md` — custom operating rules\\n- `~/.hermes/work/` — any files the agent produced\\n- `~/.hermes/config.yaml` and `~/.hermes/.env` — configuration and secrets\\n\\n**Recovery steps:**\\n1. Read the memories: `~/.hermes/memories/USER.md` and `MEMORY.md`\\n2. List recent session files: `ls -lt ~/.hermes/sessions/*.jsonl | head -20`\\n3. Read key session transcripts directly (JSONL format, one message per line)\\n4. Check `~/.hermes/work/` for any deliverables from past sessions\\n\\n**Important:** The gateway restart itself does NOT delete anything. The `sessions.json` index may take a moment to rebuild, but the `.jsonl` files are present immediately. If `session_search` is empty, always fall back to direct filesystem inspection.\\n\\n**Critical pitfall — session_search default limit:**\\n`session_search` without arguments may return only 1 result. After a gateway restart the index is empty, so even recent sessions appear lost. Always pass `limit=5` (or higher) and use `query=\\\"*\\\"` to force a broad scan when recovering. Example:\\n```python\\nsession_search(limit=5, query=\\\"*\\\")\\n```\\nIf this still returns nothing, bypass the index entirely and read the `.jsonl` files directly from disk.\\n\\n### Honcho Memory Plugin — Reality Check\\nHoncho is listed as an installed plugin but the CLI subcommand `hermes honcho` does **not exist** in all Hermes builds. The Python library (`honcho`) may be present in the venv while the CLI integration is missing.\\n\\n**What actually works:**\\n1. Set provider: `hermes config set memory.provider honcho`\\n2. Verify with `hermes memory status` — look for `Provider: honcho`\\n3. The plugin status line will say `Status: not available` if the Honcho server (cloud or local Docker) is not reachable.\\n\\n**Local (no API key) is NOT automatic:**\\nHoncho requires either a cloud API key (`HONCHO_API_KEY`) or a self-hosted Docker/Postgres instance. There is no \\\"just use SQLite locally\\\" zero-setup mode. If the user wants 100 % offline memory without cloud accounts, the built-in memory system is the practical choice.\\n\\n**Do not promise Honcho setup works without verifying the CLI subcommand exists first.** Check with `hermes honcho status` — if the command is not found, the integration is incomplete and needs manual Python-level setup or a plugin update.\\n\\n### Platform-specific issues\\n- **Discord bot silent**: Must enable **Message Content Intent** in Bot → Privileged Gateway Intents.\\n- **Slack bot only works in DMs**: Must subscribe to `message.channels` event. Without it, the bot ignores public channels.\\n- **Windows HTTP 400 \\\"No models provided\\\"**: Config file encoding issue (BOM). Ensure `config.yaml` is saved as UTF-8 without BOM.\\n\\n### Auxiliary models not working\\nIf `auxiliary` tasks (vision, compression, session_search) fail silently, the `auto` provider can't find a backend. Either set `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` or `GOOGLE_API_KEY`, or explicitly configure each auxiliary task's provider:\\n```bash\\nhermes config set auxiliary.vision.provider \\nhermes config set auxiliary.vision.model \\n```\\n\\nFull step-by-step setup for dedicated auxiliary models (recommended for custom providers like Ollama): see `references/auxiliary-model-setup.md` — covers model selection, required context windows, and the exact YAML block to paste.\\n\\nContext compression tuning (threshold, target_ratio, local vs cloud models): see `references/compression-tuning.md`.\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Where to Find Things\\n\\n| Looking for... | Location |\\n|----------------|----------|\\n| Config options | `hermes config edit` or [Configuration docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/configuration) |\\n| Available tools | `hermes tools list` or [Tools reference](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/tools-reference) |\\n| Slash commands | `/help` in session or [Slash commands reference](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/slash-commands) |\\n| Skills catalog | `hermes skills browse` or [Skills catalog](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/skills-catalog) |\\n| Provider setup | `hermes model` or [Providers guide](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/integrations/providers) |\\n| Platform setup | `hermes gateway setup` or [Messaging docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/messaging/) |\\n| MCP servers | `hermes mcp list` or [MCP guide](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/mcp) |\\n| Profiles | `hermes profile list` or [Profiles docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/profiles) |\\n| Cron jobs | `hermes cron list` or [Cron docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/cron) |\\n| Memory | `hermes memory status` or [Memory docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/memory) |\\n| Env variables | `hermes config env-path` or [Env vars reference](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/environment-variables) |\\n| CLI commands | `hermes --help` or [CLI reference](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/cli-commands) |\\n| Gateway logs | `~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log` |\\n| Session files | `~/.hermes/sessions/` or `hermes sessions browse` |\\n| Source code | `~/.hermes/hermes-agent/` |\\n\\n---\\n\\n## Contributor Quick Reference\\n\\nFor occasional contributors and PR authors.

"content": "Nein, Honcho ist **installiert aber nicht aktiv**. Kurzfassung:\n\n- **Bibliothek da:** `honcho-ai` v2.1.1 liegt im Venv\n- **Nicht konfiguriert:** `memory.provider` ist nicht auf `honcho` gesetzt — wir nutzen das built-in Memory (die `MEMORY.md` und `USER.md` Files)\n- **Leerer Config-Block:** `honcho: {}` steht in der config.yaml aber ohne Inhalt\n\nHeißt: Honcho ist technisch verfügbar aber nicht eingeschaltet. Aktuell läuft alles über das eingebaute Memory-System von Hermes.\n\nSoll ich auf Honcho umstellen? Braucht entweder einen Honcho Cloud API Key oder einen selbst gehosteten Docker/Postgres Server — lokal ohne Setup geht's nicht. Alternativ bleibt's beim built-in, was auch gut funktioniert.",
"reasoning": "The user asked \"Haben wir eigentlich Honcho?\" — Do we actually have Honcho?\n\nFrom my investigation:\n\n1. **Honcho Python library is installed** (`honcho-ai` v2.1.1 in the venv)\n2. **But it's NOT configured as the memory provider** — the config has `memory:` section but no `provider: honcho` line. It's using the default built-in memory.\n3. The `honcho: {}` section exists but empty — likely just a placeholder.\n4. Active memory is the built-in system: `MEMORY.md` and `USER.md` files in `/DATA/.hermes/memories/`.\n\nPer the skill doc, switching to Honcho requires:\n- `hermes config set memory.provider honcho`\n- But per my memory note: \"`hermes memory setup` command resets memory.provider back to 'built-in' even if config.yaml had 'honcho'. To switch memory provider persistently: edit config.yaml directly, then restart gateway. Never call `hermes memory setup` after setting provider via CLI.\"\n\nLet me check the full config to see the memory section.\n\nSo the answer is: Honcho is installed (library) but not used — we're on built-in memory.

Docker Compose File\\n\\nFound at `/tmp/honcho/docker-compose.yml.example`. The setup has **5 services**:\\n\\n| Service | Role | Image |\\n|---------|------|-------|\\n| **api** | FastAPI HTTP server (main app) | Built from Dockerfile |\\n| **deriver** | Background worker (memory extraction) | Built from Dockerfile |\\n| **database** | PostgreSQL with pgvector | `pgvector/pgvector:pg15` |\\n| **redis** | Cache/queue | `redis:8.2` |\\n\\n**Setup commands:**\\n```bash\\ncp docker-compose.yml.example docker-compose.yml\\ncp .env.template .env # edit with your LLM provider key\\ndocker compose up -d --build\\n```\\n\\n### 2. Required Environment Variables (`.env`)\\n\\n**Absolutely required (server won't start without):**\\n- `LLM_OPENAI_API_KEY` – LLM provider API key for OpenAI (or set `LLM_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` / `LLM_GEMINI_API_KEY`). Honcho uses LLMs for memory extraction, summarization, dialectic chat, and dream consolidation.\\n\\n**Pre-configured in docker-compose (no user action needed):**\\n- `DB_CONNECTION_URI=postgresql+psycopg://postgres:postgres@database:5432/postgres`\\n- `CACHE_URL=redis://redis:6379/0?suppress=true`\\n- `CACHE_ENABLED=true`\\n\\n**Key optional settings:**\\n- `AUTH_USE_AUTH=false` — authentication is disabled by default\\n- `VECTOR_STORE_TYPE=pgvector` — default vector store type\\n- `LOG_LEVEL=INFO`\\n- Deriver/Dialectic/Summary/Dream model overrides via `DERIVER_MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL`, etc.\\n\\n### 3. Default Port\\n\\n- **API server: `8000`** (bound to `127.0.0.1:8000:8000` in docker-compose)\\n- Postgres: `5432`\\n- Redis: `6379`\\n\\n### 4. Postgres Dependency\\n\\n**Yes, PostgreSQL with pgvector extension is required.** The docker-compose uses `pgvector/pgvector:pg15` with:\\n- Database: `postgres`\\n- User: `postgres`\\n- Password: `postgres`\\n- Init script at `database/init.sql` runs: `CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS vector;`\\n- Health check: `pg_isready -U postgres -d postgres`\\n\\nThe connection URI uses `postgresql+psycopg` (psycopg3 driver).\\n\\n### 5. Base URL Format\\n\\nAfter setup:\\n```\\nhttp://localhost:8000/v3/...\\n```\\n\\nAPI endpoints follow the pattern `/v3/{resource}/{id}/{action}`:\\n- `/v3/.../workspaces/` — create/list workspaces\\n- `/v3/.../peers/` — create peers (users/agents)\\n- `/v3/.../peers/{peer_id}/chat` — dialectic chat endpoint\\n- `/v3/.../sessions/` — manage sessions\\n- `/v3/.../messages/` — create/list messages\\n- `/health` — health check endpoint\\n\\n### Complete Quick-Start for a Linux Server\\n\\n```bash\\n# Clone the repo\\ngit clone https://github.com/plastic-labs/honcho.git\\ncd honcho\\n\\n# Copy config files\\ncp docker-compose.yml.example docker-compose.yml\\ncp .env.template .env\\n\\n# Edit .env — set LLM_OPENAI_API_KEY at minimum\\n# nano .env\\n\\n# (Optional) Uncomment the development volume mounts in docker-compose.yml\\n# for live reload if modifying code\\n\\n# Start everything\\ndocker compose up -d --build\\n\\n# Verify it's running\\ncurl http://localhost:8000/health\\n```\\n\\n### Key Files in Repository\\n\\n| File | Purpose |\\n|------|---------|\\n| `docker-compose.yml.example` | Full Docker Compose setup |\\n| `.env.template` | All environment variables with docs |\\n| `Dockerfile` | Multi-stage Python 3.13 image build |\\n| `docker/entrypoint.sh` | Runs DB migrations then starts FastAPI |\\n| `database/init.sql` | Enables pgvector extension |\\n| `config.toml.example` | TOML-based config (alternative to env vars) |\\n\\n### Notes for Hermes Agent Integration\\n\\n- **No API key needed** for Honcho itself (auth is disabled by default: `AUTH_USE_AUTH=false`)\\n- You **must** provide an LLM provider API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini) — Honcho uses it internally for memory operations\\n- To use an OpenAI-compatible local LLM (Ollama, vLLM, LiteLLM), set per-module overrides like `DERIVER_MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=http://host.docker.internal:11434/v1` and `DERIVER_MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=your-model`\\n- The default embedding model is `text-embedding-3-small` (OpenAI) — can also be overridden\", \"api_calls\": 8, \"duration_seconds\": 61.37, \"model\": \"deepseek-v4-pro\", \"exit_reason\": \"completed\", \"tokens\": {\"input\": 61874, \"output\": 2269}, \"tool_trace\": [{\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 126, \"result_bytes\": 112, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 117, \"result_bytes\": 1961, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 152, \"result_bytes\": 69, \"status\": \"error\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 61, \"result_bytes\": 10193, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 69, \"result_bytes\": 4214, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 56, \"result_bytes\": 13039, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 53, \"result_bytes\": 1838, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 53, \"result_bytes\": 325, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 63, \"result_bytes\": 247, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 60, \"result_bytes\": 83, \"status\": \"error\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 62, \"result_bytes\": 7417, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 79, \"result_bytes\": 101, \"status\": \"ok\"}, {\"tool\": \"terminal\", \"args_bytes\": 46, \"result_bytes\": 149, \"status\": \"ok\"}]}], \"total_duration_seconds\": 61.46}",

Its primary purposes include:\n\n- Imbuing agents with a sense of identity\n- Personalizing user experiences through understanding user psychology\n- Providing a Chat Endpoint (the Dialectic agent) that injects personal context just-in-time\n- Supporting development of LLM-powered applications that adapt to end users\n- Enabling multi-peer sessions where multiple participants (users or agents) can interact\n\nHoncho leverages the inherent reasoning capabilities of LLMs to build coherent models of user psychology over time, enabling more personalized and effective AI interactions.\n\n## Core Concepts\n\n### Peer Paradigm\n\nHoncho uses a peer-based model where both users and agents are represented as \"peers\". This unified approach enables:\n\n- Multi-participant sessions with mixed human and AI agents\n- Configurable observation settings (which peers observe which others)\n- Flexible identity management for all participants\n\n### Key Primitives\n\n- **Workspace** (formerly App): The root organizational unit containing all resources\n- **Peer** (formerly User): Any participant in the system (human or AI)\n- **Session**: A conversation context that can involve multiple peers\n- **Message**: Data units that can represent communication between peers OR arbitrary data ingested by a peer to enhance its global representation\n- **Collections & Documents**: Internal vector storage for peer representations. Collections are keyed by `(observer, observed)` peer pairs. Collections/Documents are not directly exposed via API, but the observations stored within them are exposed as **Conclusions** (see `/v3/.../conclusions` endpoints).\n\n## Architecture Overview\n\n### API Structure\n\nAll API routes follow the pattern: `/v3/{resource}/{id}/{action}`. Most \"list/search\" endpoints are `POST` so they can accept rich filter bodies.\n\n- **Workspaces**: Create, list, update, search\n- **Peers**: Create, list, update, chat (dialectic), messages, representation\n- **Sessions**: Create, list, update, delete, clone, manage peers, get context\n- **Messages**: Create (batch up to 100), upload (file), list, get, update\n- **Conclusions**: Create, list, query (semantic search), delete — the API-facing name for observations stored in `(observer, observed)` collections\n- **Keys**: Create scoped JWTs\n- **Webhooks**: Register endpoint, list, delete, test\n\n### Key Features\n\n#### Chat Endpoint (Dialectic agent) (`/peers/{peer_id}/chat`)\n\n- Provides bespoke responses informed by the representation\n- Integrates long-term facts from vector storage\n- Supports streaming responses\n- Configurable LLM providers\n\n#### Message Processing Pipeline\n\n1. Messages created via API (batch or single)\n2. Enqueued for background processing:\n - `representation`: Update peer's context\n - `summary`: Create session summaries\n3. Session-based queue processing ensures order\n4. Results stored internally in vector DB\n\n### Configuration\n\n- Hierarchical config: config.toml + environment variables\n- Database settings with connection pooling\n- Multiple LLM provider support\n- Background worker (deriver) settings\n- Authentication can be toggled on/off\n\n## Development Guide\n\n### Commands\n\n- Setup: `uv sync`\n- Run server: `uv run fastapi dev src/main.py`\n- Run tests: `uv run pytest tests/`\n- Run single test: `uv run pytest tests/path/to/test_file.py::test_function`\n- Linting: `uv run ruff check src/`\n- Typechecking: `uv run basedpyright`\n- Format code: `uv run ruff format src/`\n\n### SDK Testing\n\n#### TypeScript SDK\n\n**🚨 DO NOT RUN `bun test` DIRECTLY. IT WILL NOT WORK. 🚨**\n\nThe TypeScript SDK tests require a running Honcho server with database and Redis. Running `bun test` alone will fail immediately because there's no server. The tests are orchestrated via pytest which handles all the infrastructure setup.\n\n**The ONLY way to run TypeScript SDK tests:**\n\n```bash\n# From the monorepo root (not from sdks/typescript/)\nuv run pytest tests/ -k typescript\n```\n\n**To type-check the TypeScript SDK (this is fine to run directly):**\n\n```bash\ncd sdks/typescript && bun run tsc --noEmit\n```\n\n### Code Style\n\n- Follow isort conventions with absolute imports preferred\n- Use explicit type hints with SQLAlchemy mapped_column annotations\n- snake_case for variables/functions; PascalCase for classes\n- Line length: 88 chars (Black compatible)\n- Explicit error handling with appropriate exception types\n- Docstrings: Use Google style docstrings\n- **Never hold a DB session during external calls** (LLM, embedding, HTTP). If a function needs both a DB session and an external call result, compute the external result first and pass it as a parameter. This avoids tying up DB connections during slow network I/O. Use `tracked_db` for short-lived, DB-only operations; pass a shared session when multiple DB-only calls can reuse one connection.\n\n### Runtime Architecture\n\nHoncho runs as two cooperating processes that share a Postgres database and Redis cache:\n\n- **API server** (`uv run fastapi dev src/main.py`) — handles HTTP, enqueues background work, returns immediately. Hosts the **Dialectic** agent inline (synchronous tool loop during chat requests).\n- **Deriver worker** (`uv run python -m src.deriver`) — long-running queue consumer (uvloop). Runs the **Deriver**, **Summarizer**, and **Dreamer** off the queue. Can run multiple instances (`DERIVER_WORKERS`). Also hosts an in-process **Reconciler scheduler** (`src/reconciler/`) that periodically embeds messages with `sync_state='pending'` in `MessageEmbedding` and cleans up stale queue items — embedding generation is decoupled from message creation by design.\n\n### Agent Architecture\n\nHoncho uses several specialized LLM agents. They share tool definitions and the LLM client abstraction in `src/utils/agent_tools.py` + `src/llm/`.\n\n> **Terminology:** what users see as **conclusions** (the public API surface and the term we use in documentation) is called **observations** in code symbols — `create_observations`, `delete_observations`, `get_observation_context`, etc. Doc prose below uses \"conclusions\"; references to actual code symbols stay as \"observations.\"\n\n#### 1. Deriver (`src/deriver/`)\n\n**Role**: Memory formation through content ingestion.\n\nThe Deriver processes batches of incoming messages and extracts conclusions about peers. The current architecture is \"minimal deriver\" — a **single LLM call** per batch using structured output, not an agentic tool loop. This trades flexibility for cost and predictability.\n\n- **Trigger**: Messages enqueued by `src/deriver/enqueue.py` on message create; consumed by `src/deriver/queue_manager.py` → `consumer.process_item()` → `deriver.process_representation_tasks_batch()`.\n- **Output**: Explicit conclusions (direct facts) and deductive conclusions (inferences) saved to `(observer, observed)` collections.\n- **Entry point**: `src/deriver/__main__.py` → `queue_manager.main()`.\n- **Prompts**: `src/deriver/prompts.py` (`minimal_deriver_prompt`).\n\n#### 2. Dialectic (`src/dialectic/`)\n\n**Role**: Analysis and recall for answering queries.\n\nThe Dialectic answers questions about peers by strategically gathering context from memory. It is the only tool-using agent on the synchronous request path — it loops over `DIALECTIC_TOOLS` until it has enough context to answer. (The Dreamer specialists also use tools, but run off the queue.)\n\n- **Trigger**: API call to `POST /v3/.../peers/{peer_id}/chat`.\n- **Tools** (see `DIALECTIC_TOOLS` in `src/utils/agent_tools.py`): `search_memory`, `search_messages`, `get_observation_context`, `grep_messages`, `get_messages_by_date_range`, `search_messages_temporal`, `get_reasoning_chain`. At the `minimal` reasoning level, a reduced set (`DIALECTIC_TOOLS_MINIMAL`) is used: just `search_memory` + `search_messages`.\n- **Reasoning levels**: 5 t\n\n[...truncated CLAUDE.md: 18,540 chars total]",

The Ollama Cloud Pro at ollama.com/v1 is OpenAI-compatible. If it has embedding models, great. If not, Honcho might fail.\n\nLet me check what models are available at the user's provider.\n\nActually, looking at the memory: \"Setup: deepseek-v4-pro (main chat), kimi-k2.6 (all auxiliary + CCR coding), gemma3:4b (vision).

"content": "Review the conversation above and update the skill library. Be ACTIVE — most sessions produce at least one skill update, even if small. A pass that does nothing is a missed learning opportunity, not a neutral outcome.\n\nTarget shape of the library: CLASS-LEVEL skills, each with a rich SKILL.md and a `references/` directory for session-specific detail. Not a long flat list of narrow one-session-one-skill entries. This shapes HOW you update, not WHETHER you update.\n\nSignals to look for (any one of these warrants action):\n • User corrected your style, tone, format, legibility, or verbosity. Frustration signals like 'stop doing X', 'this is too verbose', 'don't format like this', 'why are you explaining', 'just give me the answer', 'you always do Y and I hate it', or an explicit 'remember this' are FIRST-CLASS skill signals, not just memory signals. Update the relevant skill(s) to embed the preference so the next session starts already knowing.\n • User corrected your workflow, approach, or sequence of steps. Encode the correction as a pitfall or explicit step in the skill that governs that class of task.\n • Non-trivial technique, fix, workaround, debugging path, or tool-usage pattern emerged that a future session would benefit from. Capture it.\n • A skill that got loaded or consulted this session turned out to be wrong, missing a step, or outdated. Patch it NOW.\n\nPreference order — prefer the earliest action that fits, but do pick one when a signal above fired:\n 1. UPDATE A CURRENTLY-LOADED SKILL. Look back through the conversation for skills the user loaded via /skill-name or you read via skill_view. If any of them covers the territory of the new learning, PATCH that one first. It is the skill that was in play, so it's the right one to extend.\n 2. UPDATE AN EXISTING UMBRELLA (via skills_list + skill_view). If no loaded skill fits but an existing class-level skill does, patch it. Add a subsection, a pitfall, or broaden a trigger.\n 3. ADD A SUPPORT FILE under an existing umbrella. Skills can be packaged with three kinds of support files — use the right directory per kind:\n • `references/.md` — session-specific detail (error transcripts, reproduction recipes, provider quirks) AND condensed knowledge banks: quoted research, API docs, external authoritative excerpts, or domain notes you found while working on the problem. Write it concise and for the value of the task, not as a full mirror of upstream docs.\n • `templates/.` — starter files meant to be copied and modified (boilerplate configs, scaffolding, a known-good example the agent can `reproduce with modifications`).\n • `scripts/.` — statically re-runnable actions the skill can invoke directly (verification scripts, fixture generators, deterministic probes, anything the agent should run rather than hand-type each time).\n Add support files via skill_manage action=write_file with file_path starting 'references/', 'templates/', or 'scripts/'. The umbrella's SKILL.md should gain a one-line pointer to any new support file so future agents know it exists.\n 4. CREATE A NEW CLASS-LEVEL UMBRELLA SKILL when no existing skill covers the class. The name MUST be at the class level. The name MUST NOT be a specific PR number, error string, feature codename, library-alone name, or 'fix-X / debug-Y / audit-Z-today' session artifact. If the proposed name only makes sense for today's task, it's wrong — fall back to (1), (2), or (3).\n\nUser-preference embedding (important): when the user expressed a style/format/workflow preference, the update belongs in the SKILL.md body, not just in memory. Memory captures 'who the user is and what the current situation and state of your operations are'; skills capture 'how to do this class of task for this user'. When they complain about how you handled a task, the skill that governs that task needs to carry the lesson.\n\nIf you notice two existing skills that overlap, note it in your reply — the background curator handles consolidation at scale.\n\n'Nothing to save.' is a real option but should NOT be the default. If the session ran smoothly with no corrections and produced no new technique, just say 'Nothing to save.' and stop. Otherwise, act."

"content": "Let me review what we've actually accomplished and what's worth saving. The Honcho Docker build is still running, but the session produced real procedural knowledge worth capturing.\n\nThe key learning: Honcho self-hosting on ZimaOS with Ollama Cloud Pro as the LLM backend — this is a non-trivial setup that the `hermes-agent` skill's existing Honcho section doesn't cover in detail. Let me add it as a reference file and update the SKILL.md to point to it.",
"reasoning": "Looking back through this conversation, let me identify any signals for skill updates:\n\n1. **User corrections**: None in this session. The user asked two personal questions and then asked about Honcho self-hosting - I proceeded to set it up.\n\n2. **Non-trivial techniques/workarounds discovered**:\n - Docker Compose installation on ZimaOS - had to use direct binary download instead of apt/pip\n - The full Honcho self-hosting setup with Ollama Cloud Pro as the LLM backend\n - The `.env` configuration with all the per-module overrides for a custom OpenAI-compatible provider\n\n3. **Skills loaded**: Only `hermes-agent` was loaded via skill_view.\n\n4. **Currently in progress**: The Honcho Docker build is still running in the background. The setup isn't complete yet - we haven't verified it works or switched Hermes over.\n\nThe Honcho self-hosting setup is a significant workflow that another session could benefit from. The `hermes-agent` skill already has a section on Honcho memory, but it doesn't cover the full self-hosting setup procedure. \n\nLet me consider: should I create a new skill for this, update the hermes-agent skill, or add a reference file?\n\nLooking at the hermes-agent skill, it has a \"Honcho Memory Plugin — Reality Check\" section that covers configuration. But the self-hosting Docker setup (clone, .env with Ollama Cloud Pro, docker-compose, etc.) is new procedural knowledge that would fit as a reference file under the hermes-agent umbrella.\n\nActually wait - the setup isn't even complete yet. The Docker build is still running. I should probably wait until it's done and verified before saving a skill. But the skill review is about the conversation thus far...\n\nThe key learning from this session:\n1. ZimaOS docker-compose installation: `curl` to `/tmp` directly (apt-get doesn't exist, pip doesn't exist, `/usr/local/bin` not writable)\n2. Honcho self-hosting with Ollama Cloud Pro: the complete .env config pattern with per-module overrides\n3. Honcho architecture: 4 services (api, deriver, database, redis), requires LLM provider for internal memory operations\n\nThis fits best as a reference file under the `hermes-agent` skill since it covers Honcho integration with Hermes. Let me create a `references/honcho-self-hosting.md` reference file.\n\nActually, I should also consider: the Docker setup on ZimaOS (no apt-get, no pip, need to download docker-compose binary directly) — that's a useful pitfall for any Docker skill. But there's no Docker skill loaded. Let me focus on what was loaded: `hermes-agent`.\n\nThe hermes-agent skill already has a section \"Honcho Memory Plugin — Reality Check\". I should add a reference file with the self-hosting procedure and update the SKILL.md to point to it.\n\nLet me create `references/honcho-self-hosting.md` under the hermes-agent skill.",

The user asked two personal questions and then asked about Honcho self-hosting - I proceeded to set it up.\n\n2. **Non-trivial techniques/workarounds discovered**:\n - Docker Compose installation on ZimaOS - had to use direct binary download instead of apt/pip\n - The full Honcho self-hosting setup with Ollama Cloud Pro as the LLM backend\n - The `.env` configuration with all the per-module overrides for a custom OpenAI-compatible provider\n\n3. **Skills loaded**: Only `hermes-agent` was loaded via skill_view.\n\n4. **Currently in progress**: The Honcho Docker build is still running in the background. The setup isn't complete yet - we haven't verified it works or switched Hermes over.\n\nThe Honcho self-hosting setup is a significant workflow that another session could benefit from. The `hermes-agent` skill already has a section on Honcho memory, but it doesn't cover the full self-hosting setup procedure. \n\nLet me consider: should I create a new skill for this, update the hermes-agent skill, or add a reference file?\n\nLooking at the hermes-agent skill, it has a \"Honcho Memory Plugin — Reality Check\" section that covers configuration. But the self-hosting Docker setup (clone, .env with Ollama Cloud Pro, docker-compose, etc.) is new procedural knowledge that would fit as a reference file under the hermes-agent umbrella.\n\nActually wait - the setup isn't even complete yet. The Docker build is still running. I should probably wait until it's done and verified before saving a skill. But the skill review is about the conversation thus far...\n\nThe key learning from this session:\n1. ZimaOS docker-compose installation: `curl` to `/tmp` directly (apt-get doesn't exist, pip doesn't exist, `/usr/local/bin` not writable)\n2. Honcho self-hosting with Ollama Cloud Pro: the complete .env config pattern with per-module overrides\n3. Honcho architecture: 4 services (api, deriver, database, redis), requires LLM provider for internal memory operations\n\nThis fits best as a reference file under the `hermes-agent` skill since it covers Honcho integration with Hermes. Let me create a `references/honcho-self-hosting.md` reference file.\n\nActually, I should also consider: the Docker setup on ZimaOS (no apt-get, no pip, need to download docker-compose binary directly) — that's a useful pitfall for any Docker skill. But there's no Docker skill loaded. Let me focus on what was loaded: `hermes-agent`.\n\nThe hermes-agent skill already has a section \"Honcho Memory Plugin — Reality Check\". I should add a reference file with the self-hosting procedure and update the SKILL.md to point to it.\n\nLet me create `references/honcho-self-hosting.md` under the hermes-agent skill.",

Tested on ZimaOS (Debian-based, no apt-get, no pip).\\n\\n## Prerequisites\\n\\n- Docker (tested with 27.5.1)\\n- Docker Compose (standalone binary, not plugin — ZimaOS has no apt-get)\\n- An OpenAI-compatible LLM API key (Ollama Cloud Pro, OpenRouter, etc.)\\n- ~4 GB disk space (Postgres + Redis + Honcho images)\\n\\n## Docker Compose Installation (ZimaOS / Headless)\\n\\nZimaOS has no `apt-get`, `pip`, or `/usr/local/bin` by default. Install the standalone binary:\\n\\n```bash\\ncurl -fsSL \\\"https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)\\\" -o /tmp/docker-compose\\nchmod +x /tmp/docker-compose\\n/tmp/docker-compose --version # verify\\n```\\n\\nIf `/usr/local/bin` is available: `cp /tmp/docker-compose /usr/local/bin/docker-compose`.\\nOtherwise, use `/tmp/docker-compose` directly for all `docker-compose` commands.\\n\\n## Setup Procedure\\n\\n### 1. Clone Honcho\\n\\n```bash\\ngit clone https://github.com/plastic-labs/honcho.git\\ncd honcho\\n```\\n\\n### 2. Copy Config Files\\n\\n```bash\\ncp docker-compose.yml.example docker-compose.yml\\n```\\n\\n### 3. Create `.env` for OpenAI-Compatible Provider\\n\\nThe critical pattern: Honcho has separate LLM modules (Deriver, Dialectic, Summary, Dream, Embedding)\\nand each needs its own `MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL` pointing to your provider.\\nA global `LLM_BASE_URL` is NOT sufficient — each module's base URL must be set individually.\\n\\nTemplate for Ollama Cloud Pro (`https://ollama.com/v1`):\\n\\n```ini\\nLOG_LEVEL=INFO\\nDB_CONNECTION_URI=postgresql+psycopg://postgres:postgres@database:5432/postgres\\nAUTH_USE_AUTH=false\\n\\n# API key (shared across all modules via LLM_OPENAI_API_KEY)\\nLLM_OPENAI_API_KEY=\\u003cyour-api-key\\u003e\\n\\n# Embedding\\nEMBEDDING_MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=text-embedding-3-small\\n\\n# Deriver (background memory extraction)\\nDERIVER_MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nDERIVER_MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\n\\n# Dialectic (all reasoning levels)\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__minimal__MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__minimal__MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__low__MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__low__MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__medium__MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__medium__MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__high__MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__high__MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__max__MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nDIALECTIC_LEVELS__max__MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\n\\n# Summary\\nSUMMARY_MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nSUMMARY_MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\n\\n# Dream (deduction + induction)\\nDREAM_DEDUCTION_MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nDREAM_DEDUCTION_MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\nDREAM_INDUCTION_MODEL_CONFIG__MODEL=kimi-k2.6\\nDREAM_INDUCTION_MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL=https://ollama.com/v1\\n\\n# Cache \\u0026 Vector Store\\nCACHE_ENABLED=true\\nCACHE_URL=redis://redis:6379/0?suppress=true\\nVECTOR_STORE_TYPE=pgvector\\n```\\n\\n### 4. Build and Start\\n\\n```bash\\n/tmp/docker-compose up -d --build\\n```\\n\\nThis pulls `pgvector/pgvector:pg15` and `redis:8.2`, builds the Honcho image from Dockerfile,\\ncreates volumes (`pgdata`, `redis-data`), and starts all 4 services:\\n- **api** — FastAPI on `127.0.0.1:8000`\\n- **deriver** — Background memory extraction worker\\n- **database** — PostgreSQL 15 + pgvector on `127.0.0.1:5432`\\n- **redis** — Redis 8.2 on `127.0.0.1:6379`\\n\\n### 5. Verify\\n\\n```bash\\ncurl http://localhost:8000/health\\n# Should return: {\\\"status\\\":\\\"ok\\\"}\\n\\n/tmp/docker-compose ps\\n# All 4 services should be \\\"healthy\\\" or \\\"running\\\"\\n```\\n\\n## Hermes Integration\\n\\nOnce Honcho is running, switch Hermes to Honcho memory:\\n\\n```bash\\nhermes config set memory.provider honcho\\n```\\n\\nHoncho's base URL defaults to `http://localhost:8000/v3` — no additional config needed for local self-hosted.\\n\\nVerify with: `hermes memory status`\\n\\n## Architecture\\n\\n```\\nHermes Agent\\n │\\n ▼ POST /v3/.../messages/\\n┌─────────────┐ ┌──────────┐\\n│ Honcho API │────▶│ Redis │ queue\\n│ :8000 │ │ :6379 │\\n└──────┬──────┘ └────┬─────┘\\n │ │\\n ▼ ▼\\n┌─────────────┐ ┌──────────┐\\n│ PostgreSQL │ │ Deriver │ background\\n│ :5432 │◀────│ worker │\\n└─────────────┘ └──────────┘\\n```\\n\\n- Messages flow: Hermes → API → Redis queue → Deriver → PostgreSQL (vector)\\n- Dialectic chat: API handles inline, queries PostgreSQL directly\\n- Embeddings: OpenAI `text-embedding-3-small` (must be available via your provider)\\n\\n## Pitfalls\\n\\n- **Global LLM_BASE_URL doesn't propagate.** Each module (deriver, dialectic levels, summary, dream) needs its own `*_MODEL_CONFIG__OVERRIDES__BASE_URL`. Missing this causes the modules to default to `api.openai.com`.\\n- **Embedding model must exist on your provider.** `text-embedding-3-small` is an OpenAI model. If your proxy doesn't route embedding requests, Honcho's startup will fail. Check your provider's model list.\\n- **Port already in use.** If 8000/5432/6379 are taken, edit `docker-compose.yml` to change the host port mapping (left side of `ports:`).\\n- **Docker build timeout.** First build pulls base images + installs Python deps via uv. Give it 5-10 minutes on a slow connection.\\n- **Hermes CLI may not have `hermes honcho` subcommand.** The `hermes-agent` skill already documents this. Use `hermes config set memory.provider honcho` directly.\\n\",\"file_path\":\"references/honcho-self-hosting.md\",\"name\":\"hermes-agent\"}"
