Model: `gpt-5.5` via `openai-codex`  ·  Duration: 2m 48s  ·  Agent-created skills: 13 → 7 (-6)

## Auto-transitions (pure, no LLM)

- checked: 13
- marked stale: 0
- archived (no LLM, pure time-based staleness): 0
- reactivated: 0

## LLM consolidation pass

- tool calls: **24** (by name: skill_manage=4, skill_view=16, skills_list=2, terminal=2)
- consolidated into umbrellas: **2**
- pruned (archived for staleness): **4**
- new skills this run: **0**
- state transitions (active ↔ stale ↔ archived): **0**

### Consolidated into umbrella skills (2)

_These skills were **absorbed into another skill** during this run — their content still lives, just under a different name. The original directory was moved to `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/` for safety and can be restored via `hermes curator restore <name>` if the consolidation was wrong._

- `cronjob` → merged into `hermes-agent` — Cron scheduling is part of Hermes operations and belongs under the Hermes Agent operations umbrella.
- `mcp-delegation` → merged into `hermes-agent` — OpenClaw/FRIDAY MCP delegation is a Hermes MCP/operator workflow and belongs under the Hermes Agent umbrella.

### Pruned — archived for staleness (4)

_These skills were archived without being merged into an umbrella (e.g. stale, unused, or judged irrelevant). Directories live under `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/`. Restore any via `hermes curator restore <name>`._

- `dogfood`
- `simplify-code`
- `test-driven-development`
- `vue-primevue-dashboard-migration`

## LLM final summary

Processed the candidate set as an umbrella-building pass and made real changes.

I consolidated 6 active skills into two existing class-level umbrellas:

- `hermes-agent`
  - absorbed `cronjob`
  - absorbed `mcp-delegation`
  - copied all relevant support references into `autonomous-ai-agents/hermes-agent/references/`
  - patched `hermes-agent/SKILL.md` with labeled sections pointing to the absorbed cron/MCP references

- `software-development-workflows`
  - absorbed `simplify-code`
  - absorbed `test-driven-development`
  - absorbed `vue-primevue-dashboard-migration`
  - absorbed `dogfood`
  - copied their support references/templates into `software-development/software-development-workflows/references/`
  - patched `software-development-workflows/SKILL.md` with an “Absorbed workflow classes” section

Archived, not deleted, the absorbed skill packages under:

- `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/cronjob`
- `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/mcp-delegation`
- `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/simplify-code`
- `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/test-driven-development`
- `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/vue-primevue-dashboard-migration`
- `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/dogfood`

Verified afterward with `skills_list`: those six no longer appear as active skills, while the two umbrellas remain active and expose the absorbed reference files.

I intentionally left these active because they are already class-level or package-heavy standalone skills where forced absorption would reduce usability or violate package integrity:

- `algorithmic-trading-bot-safety` — safety-critical trading-bot class with 55 references; distinct from general finance ledger/dashboard architecture.
- `finance-system-architecture` — already a large finance-system umbrella.
- `comfyui` — package-heavy tool skill with references, scripts, workflows, and tests; flattening would break its executable package shape.
- `humanizer` — class-level writing/editing workflow.
- `jupyter-live-kernel` — class-level stateful Python/Jupyter workflow.
- `openhue` — class-level smart-home/Hue control workflow.
- `hermes-agent` — retained as the Hermes operations umbrella.
- `software-development-workflows` — retained as the software-development umbrella.

I did not force the archive count to 10 because the remaining candidates were not obvious micro-skills after inspection; archiving them would have been destructive consolidation rather than umbrella-building.

## Structured summary (required)
```yaml
consolidations:
  - from: cronjob
    into: hermes-agent
    reason: Cron scheduling is part of Hermes operations and belongs under the Hermes Agent operations umbrella.
  - from: mcp-delegation
    into: hermes-agent
    reason: OpenClaw/FRIDAY MCP delegation is a Hermes MCP/operator workflow and belongs under the Hermes Agent umbrella.
  - from: simplify-code
    into: software-development-workflows
    reason: Parallel cleanup review is a software-development workflow mode, not a standalone skill class.
  - from: test-driven-development
    into: software-development-workflows
    reason: TDD is a core software-development workflow mode already covered by the umbrella.
  - from: vue-primevue-dashboard-migration
    into: software-development-workflows
    reason: Vue/PrimeVue dashboard migration is a frontend implementation subsection of the broader software-development workflow library.
  - from: dogfood
    into: software-development-workflows
    reason: Exploratory web-app QA is a software-development testing workflow and fits as a labeled QA subsection.

## Recovery

- Restore an archived skill: `hermes curator restore <name>`
- All archives live under `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/` and are recoverable by `mv`
- See `run.json` in this directory for the full machine-readable record.
