|
|
|
|
## Per-Check Results
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
- All official docs and GitHub repo accessible
|
|
|
|
### 4. COMPLETENESS: ✅ PASS
|
|
- All 9 required sections present and substantive:
|
|
- 1. TL;DR ✅
|
|
- 2. Context gap explanation ✅
|
|
- 3. Context stack ✅
|
|
- 4. Top moves (12 items) ✅
|
|
- 5. Working alongside Claude Code ✅
|
|
- 6. Video watch list (17 videos) ✅
|
|
- 7. 7-day ramp ✅
|
|
- 8. What NOT to expect ✅
|
|
- 9. Appendix: command reference ✅
|
|
- Top moves count: 12/12 (within 12 limit) ✅
|
|
- 7-day ramp is actionable with specific commands ✅
|
|
|
|
### 5. CLIENT-DATA LEAK: ✅ PASS
|
|
- **No private financial data or personal data found**
|
|
- Grep patterns searched: murray, jds, portfolio, allocation, holding, ticker, position, dollar, 192.168.68.17, syslog solution llc
|
|
- Only mentions of "portfolio" are generic workflow descriptions, not specific financial data
|
|
- No Murray Capital/JDS portfolio details, positions, or dollar figures found
|
|
|
|
### 6. HONESTY/OVER-CLAIM: ✅ PASS (1 minor issue)
|
|
- **Minor issue found:** The "save this as a skill" workflow description is slightly misleading
|
|
- Book says: "after you complete a workflow twice, ask Hermes to 'save this as a skill'"
|
|
- Reality: The workflow works on a single workflow completion (not after two)
|
|
- The language "after you complete a workflow twice" suggests a minimum repetition requirement that doesn't exist
|
|
- **Recommendation:** Change to "after completing a workflow, ask Hermes to save this as a skill"
|
|
- No major over-claims about features that don't exist
|
|
- All model claims are accurate for OpenRouter-only setup
|
|
- Honest about "no official Nous Research tutorial videos exist" ✅
|
|
|
|
### 7. USEFULNESS: ✅ PASS
|
|
- **Strongest section:** Section 4 "Top moves" - provides 12 highly actionable, verified commands
|
|
- **Strongest section:** Section 6 "Video watch list" - all links verified, titles/channels accurate
|
|
- **Strongest section:** Section 7 "Your first 7 days" - practical, incremental onboarding plan
|
|
- **Weakest section:** Section 2 "Why Hermes feels like it has less context" - could benefit from more concrete examples
|
|
- Overall: Would genuinely help a new user close the context gap with actionable, verified steps
|
|
|
|
## Prioritized Fixes
|
|
|
|
### SHOULD-FIX
|
|
1. **Fix "save as skill" workflow description** - Change "after you complete a workflow twice" to "after completing a workflow" (Section 3, paragraph 4)
|
|
- This is the only minor issue found
|
|
- Doesn't affect functionality but could create false expectations about repetition requirements
|
|
|
|
### NIT
|
|
- None identified - all content is accurate and well-organized
|
|
|
|
## Edits Applied
|
|
|
|
Applied the SHOULD-FIX correction directly to the playbook:
|
|
- **Section 3, Layer 3 (Skills):** Changed "after you complete a workflow twice" → "after completing a workflow"
|
