What does it add to Hermes?
idea-refine is a skill related to software development and repositories. It helps the agent understand code or work with a software project instead of only giving generic advice.
This plain-language explanation is based on the publisher description. The original text remains visible for verification.
Do not add it merely to experiment when Hermes already has a simpler path, or when you cannot review its source and permissions.
Best for users who want a repeatable way of working inside Hermes.
Try it on a disposable repository with read-only access and ask for a summary of one file with its path.
Original publisher description
Refines raw ideas into sharp, actionable concepts through structured divergent and convergent thinking. Use when an idea is still vague, when you need to stress-test assumptions before committing to a plan, or when you want to expand options before converging on one. Triggers on "ideate", "refine this idea", or "stress-test my plan".
