Hermes光会聊天不够看，得给它上“操作系统”才算真能干活

Oh My Hermes直接把Hermes从嘴炮机器人升级成一个真能干活的开发加运维搭档，装一次就完事。

20个技能全家桶：需求澄清、产品简报、设计交接、选引擎、写代码、部署、连数据库、监控、通知、GitHub操作，从0到上线一条龙

5个Agent分工明确：CTO、PM、Dev、QA、Ops各守一摊，在看板上真协同，不是演戏

Hermes自己就是主力，Claude Code和Codex只是加速挂件，要不要随你

Oh My Hermes

An opinionated workflow layer for building, shipping, and operating apps — delivered directly to Hermes.

Like Oh My Zsh is to Zsh. You install it once and Hermes becomes genuinely useful for real software projects. Not a chatbot wrapper. Not a prompt pack. A curated set of skills that Hermes loads and runs autonomously — on your VPS, on your laptop, wherever Hermes lives.

AI agent? See INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS.md for the one-command install protocol.

Use with an AI agent

If you work with Claude, Cursor, Copilot, or any coding assistant, paste this directly into the chat:

To install Oh My Hermes on a project:

Install Oh My Hermes on this project.

1. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/salomondiei08/oh-my-hermes /tmp/oh-my-hermes
2. Run the installer: bash /tmp/oh-my-hermes/install.sh
3. Bootstrap this project: bash /tmp/oh-my-hermes/scripts/bootstrap.sh
4. Verify everything installed: bash /tmp/oh-my-hermes/scripts/verify.sh

Then tell me what's missing and what I need to fill in.

To set up the full autonomous CTO loop:

Set up the Oh My Hermes CTO loop for this project.

Follow the instructions in: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/salomondiei08/oh-my-hermes/main/INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS.md

I will provide the following when you ask:
- My GitHub repo (owner/repo)
- A GitHub fine-grained token (I'll create one if you explain how)
- My production URL (if deployed)

Walk me through each step one at a time.

To start a new app from scratch:

Use Oh My Hermes to start a new app.

Oh My Hermes is installed at ~/.hermes/skills/. Load the following skills in order:
1. clarify-requirements — ask me the 7 questions and save my answers
2. product-brief — generate the brief from my answers
3. choose-engine — decide how to implement it
4. implement — build it using the right engine

Start with clarify-requirements now.

The core idea

Hermes is the operator. It talks to you. It remembers. It builds. It deploys. It monitors. It notifies.

You describe what you want in plain language — on Telegram, Slack, Discord, your terminal, wherever you have Hermes configured. Hermes loads the right skill and runs the workflow. Claude Code and Codex are optional engines Hermes can invoke when a task needs deep file editing — but Hermes handles the orchestration, the ops, the memory, and the lifecycle on its own.

Hermes does not need Claude Code or Codex to be useful. Those are optional. Hermes itself has a terminal backend and can write, edit, and run code directly.

Full project lifecycle

From idea to running production app, Hermes handles each stage:

IDEA
  ↓  onboarding            ← Bot asks everything in chat, configures the loop
  ↓  clarify-requirements  ← Hermes asks 7 questions, saves answers to memory
  ↓  product-brief         ← Writes PRODUCT_BRIEF.md from requirements
  ↓  design-handoff        ← Converts your design notes to an implementation spec
  ↓  choose-engine         ← Decides: Hermes / Claude Code / Codex
  ↓  implement             ← Builds it — surgical changes, no secrets committed
  ↓  deploy-to-vercel      ← Pre-deploy checks → deploy → captures URL
  ↓  connect-supabase      ← Links DB, pushes migrations, sets env vars
  ↓  setup-monitoring      ← Sentry + Uptime Kuma
  ↓  post-deploy-followup  ← Health check → log → notify you
  ↓
RUNNING APP
  ↓  auto-issue-triage     ← Every hour: scores issues, picks top priority
  ↓  implement + PR        ← Dev Agent builds, Security Agent reviews
  ↓  await-merge-approval  ← Sends you YES/NO message
  ↓  YOU reply YES         ← Merges, deploys, health-checks, confirms
  ↓
REPEAT — Hermes watches it, you approve changes

The autonomous CTO loop

Once configured, this runs every hour without you touching anything:

GitHub issue opens
       ↓
  PM Agent scores & triages  →  kanban: Backlog
       ↓
  Dev Agent implements  →  kanban: In Progress
       ↓
  Security Agent: secret scan + OWASP check + CVE check
       ↓
  QA Agent: build check + health check + plain-English summary
       ↓
  YOU get a message on Telegram:
  ────────────────────────────────────────
  PR #12 — Fix login redirect

  What changed: Users who hadn't verified their email were
  sent to a broken page. They now see "Check your inbox."

  Build: passing  |  Preview: healthy (180ms)  |  No secrets found
  Preview: https://myapp-fix-login.vercel.app

  Reply YES to ship. Reply NO and tell me why.
  ────────────────────────────────────────
       ↓
  YES → merges, deploys, health-checks, confirms live URL to you
  NO  → Dev Agent iterates on your feedback

Get started

Step 1 — Install Hermes Agent

Follow the Hermes quickstart. At the end you have a bot you can message on Telegram (or Slack, Discord, WhatsApp).

Step 2 — Install Oh My Hermes

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/salomondiei08/oh-my-hermes/main/install.sh | bash

Step 3 — Message your bot

set up the CTO loop

The bot will ask for your GitHub repo, walk you through creating a token step by step, ask for your production URL, and configure everything. No terminal needed after Step 2.

What you unlock at each step:

Skills

Agents

Role definitions live in agents/. Running scripts/setup-cto.sh (or messaging “set up the CTO loop”) creates the actual Hermes profiles and makes the agents active.

Workflow examples

Start a new project:

you: start a new app
hermes: What problem does this solve? Who experiences it?
you: [answer]
hermes: [6 more questions…]
hermes: Requirements saved. Generating product brief…
hermes: Brief written to PRODUCT_BRIEF.md. Ready to implement or do design first?

Deploy after implementing:

you: deploy this to Vercel
hermes: Running pre-deploy checklist…
hermes: Deploying… done. URL: https://myapp.vercel.app
hermes: Health check: PASS (200ms)
hermes: Notification sent to Slack.

Quick fix:

you: fix the auth redirect bug in src/middleware.ts
hermes: Loading context… routing to Codex (single-file fix)
hermes: Done. Typecheck passes. Creating PR…
hermes: PR #14 ready — reply YES to ship.

Steer mid-session (Hermes v0.13+):

you: /steer prioritize the payment bug above everything else
hermes: Understood. Switching Dev Agent to issue #38.

Default stack

All pluggable. Each skill documents how to substitute.

Running on a VPS

The intended setup for production use — Hermes runs 24/7, crons fire automatically, you interact from your phone:

# On a $5/month VPS (Ubuntu 22.04+)
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
hermes model        # choose your provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.)
hermes gateway setup && hermes gateway start   # connect Telegram or Slack

# Then install Oh My Hermes
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/salomondiei08/oh-my-hermes/main/install.sh | bash

# Message your bot: "set up the CTO loop"

For Docker:

docker run -d --restart=always \
  -v hermes-data:/root/.hermes \
  nousresearch/hermes-agent

Installation scripts

Optional: GBrain memory backbone

GBrain gives Hermes a richer, self-updating knowledge graph — people, companies, decisions, deployment history — queryable across sessions.

git clone https://github.com/garrytan/gbrain.git ~/gbrain && cd ~/gbrain
curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash && export PATH="$HOME/.bun/bin:$PATH"
bun install && bun link && gbrain init

Do not use npm install -g gbrain — a squatter package exists on npm under that name.
