Volces Hermes & OpenClaw Skills — Setup Guide

Source: skills.volces.com registry (mirrored on skills.sh) Category: Registry / Platform Integrations First Seen: Mixed — cluster surfaced in the Aug 12, 2026 sweep Security: Low install counts; treat as Community tier

ByteDance's Volces platform mirrors agent skills into the skills.sh ecosystem. Nine Hermes/OpenClaw-relevant skills surfaced in the August 12 sweep, including installer and memory tooling not published elsewhere. Detail pages 404 on skills.sh because the skills are indexed from the Volces registry rather than GitHub repos.

The Nine Skills

Skill Installs Purpose
hermes-installer 6 One-shot Hermes installation helper
openclaw-onebot 3 OneBot protocol bridge for OpenClaw
openclaw-reference 3 OpenClaw reference documentation skill
openclaw-plugin-workbench 2 Plugin development workbench
openclaw-profanity 2 Content filtering for OpenClaw
hermes-memory-bridge 2 Memory provider bridge for Hermes
clawpilot-advisor 1 ClawPilot configuration advisor
openclaw-logfire 1 Logfire observability integration
openclaw-tavern 1 Tavern-style roleplay UI integration

Mirror note: openclaw-profanity also appears under smithery.ai/openclaw-profanity, and hermes-memory-bridge under baoyu0/skills. Prefer the Volces listing for installation.

Installation

# Via skills.sh (registry mirror)
npx skills add skills.volces.com/hermes-installer --skill hermes-installer
npx skills add skills.volces.com/hermes-memory-bridge --skill hermes-memory-bridge
npx skills add skills.volces.com/openclaw-reference --skill openclaw-reference

# Or via the Volces platform directly (volces.com skills marketplace)

When skills.sh detail pages 404, fetch the skill content from the Volces registry UI and install manually into ~/.hermes/skills/<skill-name>/.

Prerequisites

Requirement Details
Node.js + npx For skills.sh installs
Volces account For the native Volces registry UI
OpenClaw runtime For onebot, logfire, tavern, and profanity skills
Hermes Agent For hermes-installer and hermes-memory-bridge

CorpusIQ Use Cases

Use Case How
Fresh-node provisioning hermes-installer as a reference for one-shot Hermes setup scripts
Memory bridging hermes-memory-bridge pattern for wiring memory providers into Hermes
Observability openclaw-logfire for OpenClaw deployments where Logfire is the telemetry backend
Plugin development openclaw-plugin-workbench as scaffolding reference for plugin authors

Limitations / Verification

  • Install counts are single-digit — all nine skills are Community tier, unvetted at scale
  • skills.sh detail pages 404; content must be reviewed via the Volces registry before trusting
  • Some skills are mirrors of GitHub-hosted originals — verify the canonical source before use
  • Verify: npx skills list | grep -i volces shows installed entries; otherwise check the Volces registry UI
