hermes curator

From Official Docs · September 24, 2026

Background skill maintenance — status, run, pause, pin. See Curator.

The curator is an auxiliary-model background task that periodically reviews agent-created skills, prunes stale ones, consolidates overlaps, and archives obsolete skills. Bundled and hub-installed skills are never touched. Archives are recoverable; auto-deletion never happens.

On a fresh install the first scheduled pass is deferred by one full interval_hours (7 days by default) — the gateway will not curate immediately on the first tick after hermes update. Use hermes curator run --dry-run to preview before that happens.

See Curator for behavior and config.
