What does it add to Hermes?

review 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.

Use it when

Use it when your goal in software development and repositories is clear and you can limit it to the data and actions it actually needs.

Skip it when

Do not add it merely to experiment when Hermes already has a simpler path, or when you cannot review its source and permissions.

Who is it for?

Best for users who want a repeatable way of working inside Hermes.

Safe first test

Try it on a disposable repository with read-only access and ask for a summary of one file with its path.

Original publisher description

Review the changes since a fixed point (commit, branch, tag, or merge-base) along two axes — Standards (does the code follow this repo's documented coding standards?) and Spec (does the code match what the originating issue/PRD asked for?). Runs both reviews in parallel sub-agents and reports them side by side. Use when the user wants to review a branch, a PR, work-in-progress changes, or asks to "review since X".

Data source

Security review

Inspect SKILL.md, references, and bundled scripts. Hermes scans skills at install time, but a scan is not a guarantee.

Safe setup path

Inspect, install, then test.

  1. 01
    Open the source

    Match the publisher, license, and description to your need. Check the real update history.

  2. 02
    Review permissions and secrets

    Never paste a secret value into this site. Use environment-variable names and grant the smallest scope.

  3. 03
    Copy setup only after review

    The controls below copy text. They do not execute commands on your device.

  4. 04
    Test with a non-sensitive task

    Inspect the visible tools, then exclude write or delete tools you do not need.

Install command

Review the command, then copy it.
