Adds the conversion infrastructure for the Hermes-rollout (Nous Research):
- hermes/mapping.yaml — per-skill schema (mode: auto|manual|skip|pending,
category, replace-rules, source override). Every skills/<name>/ has an
explicit entry; the build fails on unmapped skills.
- scripts/build-hermes.py — Python converter. Reads mapping.yaml; for auto
applies replace-rules to SKILL.md and copies the rest verbatim; for manual
copies hermes/skills/<source>/ as-is; for skip / pending records to
dist-hermes/SKIPPED.md.
- dist-hermes/ — pre-converted Hermes-flavour tree (committed; consumed by
the recursive installer in [hermes-installer-skill]). Includes 4 universal
skills: pulling-before-work, active-platform (with Linux+bash replacement
rule), project-discipline, using-markitdown. Plus SKIPPED.md listing
8 skip + 10 pending entries.
- README.md — adds "Build for Hermes" section, updates layout, mentions
hermes/, dist-hermes/, build-hermes.py.
Mapping is the source of truth for the audit table from
.wiki/concepts/hermes-skills-rollout-design.md (Q1-Q8). Pending entries
preserve the audit decision (intended mode/category) for the follow-up
tasks: hermes-flavour-mcp-setups, hermes-installer-skill,
hermes-mvp-coverage. Security carry-forward (extraheader-pattern,
POSIX-absolute paths, semver bumps) — infrastructure ready (replace-rules +
manual mode); concrete content lands in hermes-flavour-mcp-setups.
Smoke-tests: idempotent re-run produces no diff; replace-rules verified on
active-platform (Linux+bash); strict-mapping fail-fast verified on a
synthetic unmapped skill (exit 1).
