TUI Widgets Skill

Author widget apps for the Hermes TUI (hermes --tui): glanceable ambient panels docked above the status bar, or modal overlays that own the keyboard. Widgets are plain ESM files the TUI loads at startup — no build step, no repo changes. This skill does not cover desktop-app or web-dashboard widgets.

When to Use

• The user asks for a live panel in the TUI (ticker, clock, countdown, status card, API-backed readout).
• The user wants a custom modal tool (picker, calculator, viewer) bound to a slash command.
