-## ⚪ [hermes-converter-mvp] — Build conversion infrastructure для Hermes-rollout: создать `hermes/mapping.yaml` (схема: per-skill `mode: auto|manual|skip`, `category`, `replace-rules`, `skip-list` + `reason`), написать `scripts/build-hermes.{sh,py}` (читает `skills/<name>/SKILL.md` или `hermes/skills/<name>/` для manual, применяет mapping, пишет `dist-hermes/<category>/<name>/`, генерит `dist-hermes/SKIPPED.md` с per-skip reason'ами). Прогнать через 4 universal: `pulling-before-work`, `active-platform`, `project-discipline`, `using-markitdown`. Закоммитить `dist-hermes/` для этих 4 в репу. Дизайн: `.wiki/concepts/hermes-skills-rollout-design.md`. Pre-encode security уроки (extraheader-pattern, POSIX-absolute paths, version-bump per Rule 3) на этапе шаблонов конвертера.

-**Status:** ready
-**Where I stopped:** (not started)
-**Next action:** Спроектировать YAML-schema для `hermes/mapping.yaml` (черновик в дизайн-доке); написать `scripts/build-hermes.py` (Python предпочтительнее bash для YAML-парсинга и template-логики); прогнать через `pulling-before-work` как single-skill smoke; зашить остальные 3 universal'а; commit.
+**Status:** done
+**Where I stopped:** Shipped в `6b36b31 feat(hermes): MVP converter + 4 universal skills converted`. (1) `hermes/mapping.yaml` — 4-mode schema (`auto`/`manual`/`skip`/`pending`); 22 skills mapped explicitly; build fails on unmapped (verified on synthetic `fake-skill` → exit 1). (2) `scripts/build-hermes.py` — Python (PyYAML 6.0.3); replace-rules ordered string-substitution on SKILL.md only; manual mode copies `hermes/skills/<source>/` verbatim; SKIPPED.md auto-generated с pending intended-mode preserved. (3) 4 universal через converter в `dist-hermes/`: `pulling-before-work` + `project-discipline` (with READMEs) → `software-development/`; `active-platform` (replace-rules `**Windows + PowerShell.**` → `**Linux + bash.**` + reasoning sentence) → `software-development/`; `using-markitdown` → `productivity/`. (4) `dist-hermes/` committed (8 файлов: 4 SKILL.md + 2 README.md + SKIPPED.md). (5) Security infra: replace-rules + manual mode ready; concrete extraheader / POSIX / version-bump templates land в `hermes-flavour-mcp-setups` (per design separation `.wiki/concepts/hermes-skills-rollout-design.md` § Связанные таски). README.md updated (новая секция `### Build for Hermes` + Layout). Per-task file `.tasks/hermes-converter-mvp.md`. **Smoke:** idempotent re-run no diff; replace-rules verified via grep on `dist-hermes/.../active-platform/SKILL.md`; strict-mapping fail-fast verified.
+**Next action:** (none — kept until merged); unblocks `[hermes-flavour-mcp-setups]`, `[hermes-installer-skill]`, `[hermes-mvp-coverage]`
 **Branch:** master

+# hermes-converter-mvp
+
+## Goal
+Conversion infrastructure для Hermes-rollout (Nous Research). Источник истины
+остаётся `claude-skills/skills/`; converter читает `hermes/mapping.yaml` и пишет
+`dist-hermes/<category>/<name>/` в Hermes-formate. MVP: 4 universal-скила
+(`pulling-before-work`, `active-platform`, `project-discipline`,
+`using-markitdown`) проходят через converter и оседают в `dist-hermes/`.
+Остальные 18 скилов имеют `mode: skip` или `mode: pending` (deferred to
+`hermes-mvp-coverage` / `hermes-flavour-mcp-setups`).
+
+## Key files
+- `.wiki/concepts/hermes-skills-rollout-design.md` — design, audit-table, Q1-Q8
+- `hermes/mapping.yaml` — schema + per-skill mode/category/replace-rules (NEW)
+- `scripts/build-hermes.py` — converter (NEW)
+- `dist-hermes/<cat>/<name>/SKILL.md` — output (NEW, committed)
+- `dist-hermes/SKIPPED.md` — skip-log (NEW)
+
+## Decisions log
+- 2026-05-06: Python only — `build-hermes.py`. Bash variant out-of-scope (task
+  block writes `{sh,py}` but next_action says "Python предпочтительнее"; YAML
+  + template logic clearer in Python).
+- 2026-05-06: mapping uses 4 modes — `auto` / `manual` / `skip` / `pending`.
+  `pending` = listed but not built yet, lands in SKIPPED.md with rationale.
+  Forces every `skills/<name>/` to have an explicit mapping entry — no silent
+  drops.
+- 2026-05-06: replace-rules applied as ordered string-substitutions on SKILL.md
+  before write. For Linux-default platform-switch on `active-platform`.
+
+## Open questions
+- [ ] Hermes `~/.hermes/skills/` exact category names — `software-development`,
+      `productivity`, `mcp`, `research` per design doc; verify against Hermes
+      docs in `hermes-mvp-coverage`.
+
+## Completed steps
+- [x] mapping.yaml schema (22 skills mapped, 4-mode: auto/manual/skip/pending)
+- [x] build-hermes.py (PyYAML; replace-rules; strict-mapping)
+- [x] dist-hermes/ for 4 universals (software-development/×3 + productivity/×1)
+- [x] SKIPPED.md auto-generated (8 skip + 10 pending with intended-mode)
+- [x] README.md "Build for Hermes" section + Layout update
+- [x] commit `6b36b31 feat(hermes): MVP converter + 4 universal skills converted`
+- [x] task closed via post-commit prompt + coverage check (using-tasks v1.1.0 self-applied)
+- [ ] push (next step)
+
+## Closing notes (2026-05-07)
+- Acceptance criteria 5 (security templates) — infrastructure shipped; content
+  deferred to `[hermes-flavour-mcp-setups]` (manual-mode files in
+  `hermes/skills/setup-projects-meta/`, `hermes/skills/setup-context7/`).
+- Coverage check used `[using-tasks-close-coverage-gate]` v1.1.0 rule —
+  acceptance walked criterion-by-criterion before flipping to 🟢.
+
+## Notes
+- Per-task started under «давай без меня все» grant — autonomous push allowed
+  for this task.
