Hermes Agent Operator Pack

Hardened configs, sandbox profiles, 12 tested skills, and messaging connectors for running an open-source agent safely.

The gap between installing Hermes Agent or OpenClaw and having it do useful work safely every day is about two weeks of forum archaeology. This pack is the output of that fortnight: a hardened base config, isolation profiles for macOS, Windows/WSL and Docker, the safe-gateway pattern with a working implementation, twelve skills with their tool bindings and failure modes, Telegram and Discord connectors that do not require a public URL, and a troubleshooting decision tree.

Price: $29.00

What's included

  • Hardened base config with allowlist filesystem, egress control, and step caps
  • Safe gateway pattern plus a working dependency-free gateway implementation
  • Prompt injection defence: four architectural controls and a test case
  • Sandbox profiles: Docker, macOS sandbox-exec, and WSL2 with the /mnt/c fix
  • 12 tested skills with tool bindings, failure modes, and cost estimates
  • Telegram connector (working code) and Discord setup with two-layer allowlisting
  • Honest iMessage assessment and migration guide
  • First-workflow selection framework, memory hygiene, and scheduling
  • Model routing with a real cost table and failover config
  • Troubleshooting decision tree and version-drift guide

Why it works

Secure by default

Allowlist filesystem and egress, sandbox profiles for three platforms, and the gateway pattern that keeps your agent off a public port.

12 skills that work

Each with its prompt, required tools, known failure modes, and a token cost estimate — so you grant least privilege and know what it costs.

Messaging without the risk

Telegram and Discord connectors using outbound polling and websockets — no public URL, no tunnel, sender allowlists enforced before anything reaches the agent.

Frequently asked questions

Does this include the agent software?

No. Hermes Agent and OpenClaw are free and open source — install them from their own repositories. This pack is the operating layer on top: configs, isolation, skills, and workflows.

My version is different. Will the configs work?

The patterns hold across versions; exact config key names sometimes move. Every file states what it was validated against, and there is a version-drift guide covering what to check when your version differs.

Do I need to be a developer?

You need to be comfortable editing a YAML config and running a command in a terminal. You do not need to write code — the gateway and Telegram connector are provided working.
