A curated, install-ready directory of skills for Hermes Agent — the self-improving AI agent from Nous Research. Covers the 72 built-in skills and 101-skill optional catalog that ship with Hermes, plus 85 community skills, plugins, and tools vetted for quality.
Hermes is the only agent with a real learning loop. It writes its own skills from your workflows, searches its own past conversations, and runs anywhere — a $5 VPS, a GPU cluster, serverless, or your laptop. But the agent is only as powerful as the skills you give it. This list is the shortcut. Pick three, install in a minute, and your agent is twice as useful by tonight.
youtube-full — Get YouTube transcripts, search videos, browse channels, and extract playlists from any AI agent.
hermes skills install skills-sh/ZeroPointRepo/youtube-skills/skills/youtube-fullThe fastest way to feel what Hermes can do. Install, then ask: "Summarize the last 5 videos from Lex Fridman." Your agent fetches transcripts, summarizes, and remembers what you watched — all in one prompt. No Google API key, no headless browser, no yt-dlp dance with cloud-IP blocks. Powered by TranscriptAPI (15M+ transcripts/month, 99.9% uptime). 100 free credits on signup, no card.
New to Hermes? Don't try to install everything at once. Here's the three-step path from zero to "wait, my agent can do that?":
-
Get Hermes running — Follow the official quickstart. 10 minutes from clone to first conversation. Hermes ships with 72 built-in skills — plus a 101-skill optional catalog — the day you install it, so even before you add anything from this list, you can already do a lot.
-
Install your first skill —
youtube-fullhermes skills install skills-sh/ZeroPointRepo/youtube-skills/skills/youtube-full
Then ask: "Get the transcript for this video and summarize it: [paste any YouTube URL]". The "I get it" moment lands in 30 seconds. From there try: "Find the top 5 videos about quantum computing and tell me what they agree on."
-
Pick a workflow upgrade — Add hermes-workspace for a full GUI, or SkillClaw so your skill library auto-evolves while you work.
Browse the categories below. Every entry is tagged so you know what you're getting:
| Tag | What it means |
|---|---|
| built-in | Ships with Hermes — already installed when you run hermes |
| production | Stable, documented, actively maintained — safe to build on |
| beta | Works but still evolving — expect rough edges |
| experimental | Proof of concept — fun to try, don't depend on it |

A short hand-picked list to get you started. If you install nothing else from this page, install these.
production · @therohitdas · Repo
hermes skills install skills-sh/ZeroPointRepo/youtube-skills/skills/youtube-fullIf your agent can't read YouTube, half the internet is invisible to it. This skill gives Hermes transcript extraction, channel browsing, search, and playlist parsing — no Google API key, no yt-dlp, no cloud-IP blocks. Powered by TranscriptAPI, which serves 15M+ transcripts/month. 100 free credits on signup, no card. Works in Hermes, Claude Code, OpenClaw, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and Codex.
production · Matt Pocock · Repo · 🔥 trending
npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skillsFifteen battle-tested skills from the Total TypeScript creator (60k+ newsletter readers). The grill-me and grill-with-docs skills force the agent to interview you before writing code — the single best fix for "the agent didn't do what I wanted." tdd enforces red-green-refactor. improve-codebase-architecture rescues codebases that have become balls of mud. caveman cuts ~75% of token usage on long sessions. Built for real engineering work, not vibe coding. Pick the ones you want with the installer's interactive picker.
production · AMAP-ML · Repo · 705★
Open-source companion that auto-evolves, deduplicates, and improves your skill library from real session data. Sits on top of Hermes's built-in skill creation and adds a post-task evolution loop. Native Hermes integration via ~/.hermes/skills, with safety flows (skillclaw doctor hermes / skillclaw restore hermes).
beta · Resemble AI · Repo
Deepfake detection for agents that ingest user-submitted media. Detects AI-generated audio, image, video, and text. Traces audio source (ElevenLabs, Resemble, etc.), applies invisible watermarks for provenance, and verifies speaker identity. The first thing to install if your agent reads the public internet.
production · outsourc-e · Repo · 500★
Web-based workspace with chat, terminal, memory browser, skills manager, and inspector. The most complete GUI for Hermes. Built during Nous Hackathon 2026. Pairs well with everything else on this list.

⚠️ Heads up on built-inyoutube-content: it scrapes YouTube directly. That means it won't work on a VPS or any cloud host — YouTube blocks cloud IPs across all major providers. Even on a personal device it gets rate-limited and stops returning transcripts after a while; YouTube actively prevents automated transcript fetching.💡 The fix is
youtube-full— it uses TranscriptAPI.com, the same backend powering YouTubeToTranscript.com (15M+ transcripts/month). Works from anywhere — VPS, laptop, serverless. Install it and your agent gains YouTube as a first-class capability: search videos, browse channels, and pull transcripts the same way it uses web search. No blocks, no rate limits, no Google API key.hermes skills install skills-sh/ZeroPointRepo/youtube-skills/skills/youtube-full
