Hermes Engineering Curation

Source: Fahrnetic/hermes-engineering-skill-curation Stars: 1 ⭐ | License: MIT Created: June 23, 2026

Overview

A professionally-curated operating system for AI-assisted engineering. Distills a 336-skill ecosystem scan into 104 selected skills, 10 operator profiles, SVG gate matrices, and a full engineering spine (Route → Specify → Test → Build → Audit → Ship → Learn).

The core thesis: AI coding without workflow is autocomplete with a costume budget. This catalog shows the stronger pattern — agents operating inside explicit gates, evidence loops, and role-separated review.

Prerequisites

  • Hermes Agent (any version)
  • ~50MB disk space (profiles + bundles + reports)
  • Git

Installation

git clone #repo-unavailable.git
cd hermes-engineering-skill-curation

# Install operator profiles
cp -r profiles ~/.hermes/profiles/

# Install skill bundles
cp -r bundles ~/.hermes/bundles/

# Review the curation report
cat CURATION.md

Profile-Only Install

git clone #repo-unavailable.git
cp -r hermes-engineering-skill-curation/profiles ~/.hermes/profiles/

Capabilities

10 Operator Profiles

Each profile is a role-specific skill loadout:

Profile Role Key Skills
architect System design Architecture diagrams, domain modeling, contract design
developer Implementation Code editing, testing, debugging, git workflow
tester Quality assurance Test generation, coverage analysis, edge-case discovery
reviewer Code review PR review, security audit, dependency analysis
devops Infrastructure CI/CD, deployment, monitoring, cron management
security Security audit Vulnerability scanning, secret detection, dependency audit
release Release management Versioning, changelog, publishing, artifact hygiene
docs Documentation API docs, README generation, wiki maintenance
pm Project management Issue triage, milestone tracking, sprint planning
data Data engineering Pipeline design, schema migration, ETL workflows

Engineering Spine

Route → Specify → Test → Build → Audit → Ship → Learn

Each phase has: - Explicit gates — conditions that must be met before advancing - Evidence loops — verifiable proof of completion - Role-separated review — different agents/profiles for different phases

CLI Reference

# Load a profile
hermes --profile fahrnetic-architect

# Load a bundle
hermes --bundle fahrnetic-full-stack

# Review curation decisions
cat ~/.hermes/profiles/fahrnetic-*/CURATION.md

CorpusIQ Use Cases

Use Case Profile/Bundle Why
PR Review Pipeline reviewer + security Role-separated review with security audit gates
Feature Development architectdevelopertester Full spine: specify → build → verify
Release Shipping release + devops Artifact hygiene, changelog, deployment
Agent Onboarding Full profiles set Pre-built operator loadouts for new team members

Troubleshooting

Profile not found

# Verify installation path
ls ~/.hermes/profiles/
# Should show fahrnetic-* directories

# Re-clone if missing
git clone #repo-unavailable.git /tmp/fahrnetic
cp -r /tmp/fahrnetic/profiles/* ~/.hermes/profiles/

Bundle conflicts with existing skills

The bundles reference skill names that may conflict with pre-existing installations. Review bundles/*.yaml before loading and comment out duplicates.
