- Restored 21 skills removed in commits 757d012 and 740dd92:
accelerate, audiocraft, code-review, faiss, flash-attention, gguf,
grpo-rl-training, guidance, llava, nemo-curator, obliteratus, peft,
pytorch-fsdp, pytorch-lightning, simpo, slime, stable-diffusion,
tensorrt-llm, torchtitan, trl-fine-tuning, whisper
- Rewrote sync_skills() with proper update semantics:
* New skills (not in manifest): copied to user dir
* Existing skills (in manifest + on disk): updated via hash comparison
* User-deleted skills (in manifest, not on disk): respected, not re-added
* Stale manifest entries (removed from bundled): cleaned from manifest
- Added sync_skills() to CLI startup (cmd_chat) and gateway startup
(start_gateway) — previously only ran during 'hermes update'
- Updated cmd_update output to show new/updated/cleaned counts
- Rewrote tests: 20 tests covering manifest CRUD, dir hashing, fresh
install, user deletion respect, update detection, stale cleanup, and
name collision handling
75 bundled skills total. 2002 tests pass.
- Updated various modules including cli.py, run_agent.py, gateway, and tools to replace silent exception handling with structured logging.
- Improved error messages to provide more context, aiding in debugging and monitoring.
- Ensured consistent logging practices throughout the codebase, enhancing traceability and maintainability.
- Added a new `skill_manager_tool` to enable agents to create, update, and delete their own skills, enhancing procedural memory capabilities.
- Updated the skills directory structure to support user-created skills in `~/.hermes/skills/`, allowing for better organization and management.
- Enhanced the CLI and documentation to reflect the new skill management functionalities, including detailed instructions on creating and modifying skills.
- Implemented a manifest-based syncing mechanism for bundled skills to ensure user modifications are preserved during updates.
