Set up

Skills are installed by placing their folder where your agent loads skills.

The download comes from github.com/magnus919/hermes-droid itself, not from our server, so what you get is exactly what its author published.

Install instructions come from the README

Skills do not use an MCP config. Follow the steps in the README below.

Hermes Droid

A standalone Agent Skill for delegating coding work to Factory Droid through its droid CLI.

Why Install This Skill

Use it when an AI agent needs to choose, invoke, and safely supervise Factory Droid for code analysis, bounded edits, specification-first implementation, or larger multi-agent missions.

What You Get

  • A compact operational guide for droid exec
  • Deliberate autonomy guidance, including worktree isolation
  • Focused references for authentication, missions, model selection, and agent comparison
  • No runtime dependency or wrapper: the bundle documents the upstream droid CLI

Quick Start

  1. Install and authenticate Factory Droid:
    curl -fsSL https://app.factory.ai/cli | sh
    droid
    
  2. Copy or symlink factory-droid/ into your agent's skill directory.
  3. Let the agent load factory-droid/SKILL.md when you ask it to use Factory Droid.
  4. Verify the installation:
    droid exec -o json --auto low "Respond with: OK"
    

Triggers

Use this bundle for requests such as:

  • "Use Factory Droid to implement this feature."
  • "Run a spec-first coding task with droid."
  • "Use droid in an isolated worktree."
  • "Delegate this larger refactor to Factory."

It is not a Factory CLI replacement and does not install, authenticate, or operate droid on its own.

Requirements

  • macOS or Linux
  • Factory's droid CLI installed and authenticated
  • A Git repository for coding tasks, especially tasks that write files

Provenance

This repository extracts the standalone factory-droid skill originally proposed in NousResearch/hermes-agent#43347, at source commit cf84ebfc7ad4ebb3ac72cc6f70685a08f36e21fb. It is maintained independently so it can be installed and improved without waiting for that upstream PR.
