Nous Research Adds /learn to Hermes Agent’s Skills System, Capturing Workflows as Slash Commands Without Hand-Writing SKILL.md

Nous Research has added a /learn command to Hermes Agent, an open-source self-improving agent, that automatically creates reusable skill documents from various sources like directories, URLs, past conversations, or notes instead of requiring manual writing. The agent uses its existing tools to gather material and write a standards-compliant SKILL.md file that becomes a slash command for future use. Skills function as on-demand reference documents stored in a central location, loaded only when needed to keep token costs low through a three-level progressive disclosure system. This feature works consistently across multiple interfaces (CLI, messaging gateway, dashboard) and includes an optional approval gate to review agent-created skills before they are saved.
