Install Memory Hermes skill

Use memory as a persistent skill inside Hermes Agent.

The installable artifact is the raw SKILL.md file:

  • Download memory-hermes/SKILL.md

  • Or fetch it from the terminal:

    Terminal window
    curl -fsSL https://0d3sa.com/memory/skills/memory-hermes/SKILL.md -o memory-hermes/SKILL.md
Terminal window
curl -fsSL https://0d3sa.com/memory/install.sh | sh

Call memory_health through your MCP client. If the call fails, re-run the install or check your MCP server configuration.

For step-by-step client wiring, see Connect another MCP client.

Other client tutorials:

  • Health check first. Call memory_health at the start of every session. Do not proceed with memory-dependent work until it succeeds.
  • Recall before acting. Use memory_recall at task start and before decisions that touch preferences, conventions, security, or tooling.
  • Remember after learning. After corrections, working solutions, or settled conventions, store durable takeaways with memory_remember.
  • Memory checkpoint. Before finishing a task, confirm at least one recall happened at the start and at least one remember happened at the end.
  • Stop if tools are missing. If the memory tools are unavailable, tell the user to install and wire the MCP server, then stop.
  • Do not remember secrets. Never store tokens, passwords, raw command output, ephemeral reasoning, or unvalidated guesses.
