Hermes + graphify + GSD Non-Intrusive Workflow

Overview

Use this skill to build an upgrade-safe local AI development workflow that combines:

• Hermes Agent for orchestration, memory, and execution
• graphify for codebase graph recall and low-cost refresh
• GSD for planning, phase management, and execution cadence

If the repo already has this workflow and the task is now about runtime diagnosis, writer ownership, stale cron/state/lease cleanup, or handoff/operator recovery, switch to hermes-graphify-gsd-runtime-operator.

Core rule: do not modify upstream Hermes, graphify, or GSD repository code unless the user explicitly wants to contribute upstream. Prefer thin wrappers, project-local scripts, and repo documentation.

Important prerequisite:

• This skill assumes Hermes is already installed in an online-capable environment.
• If hermes is missing, stop and ask the user to install Hermes first.
• Do not auto-install Hermes from this skill.
• However, on first-time bootstrap, this skill should automatically install or upgrade the latest graphify and GSD, then configure them globally.
