How does Hermes Agent create its own skills?

Hermes Agent skills are a set of reusable instructions or processes, and the core file is usually SKILL.md. The official Creating Skills documentation emphasizes that skills should be clearly written about when, how, and what files or scripts are needed, rather than just a vague title.

Minimal structure

my-skill/  SKILL.md  scripts/  references/

SKILL.md suggested to write: trigger scene, execution steps, precautions, sample input and output. If you need a script, put it in scripts/ and let Hermes call the ready-made script instead of re-infering every time.

How to get started for novices

1. Write down the tasks you repeat as steps first.
2. Organize the steps into SKILL.md.
3. Load with hermes skills install or local path.
4. Let Hermes do it once, observe where it is not clear, and then change it.

In a word: a good skill is a reusable operation manual, not an ordinary prompt.
