Hermes Relay
The replaceable collaborator Hermes reads approved context, selects tools, follows skills, and reports evidence. It is not the canonical archive.
REFERENCE PATTERN
How to organize it
portable maps → context skills → procedures tools → bounded actions evidence ledger → verification Hermes memory → compact hot-cache
This is a public educational pattern, not a live connection to the computer behind EchoNet. Adapt it to your own environment.
PRACTICAL START
Starter prompt
Create a Hermes operating contract for [WORKFLOW]. Define context, boundaries, approvals, evidence, failure handling, and canonical file destinations.
Inspect first, keep the smallest useful scope, preserve rollback, and verify with direct evidence.
