Local primary sources (not web URLs; verified on this host)

  • Live CLI help output, Hermes Agent v0.21.1 (2026.9.7), reference install (Syslog kagentz): hermes --help + hermes {chat,model,config,cron,kanban,skills,sessions,mcp,profile,memory,tools,project,gateway,computer-use,doctor,status,import-agent} --help → raw dump cli-help-dump.txt (577 lines). Basis for all VERIFIED-LIVE tags in 01/02/03/04.

  • oEmbed endpoint per video: https://www.youtube.com/oembed?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=<ID>&format=json — all 21 checked IDs returned PASS (HTTP 200, title/author match). Raw evidence incl. publishDate/lengthSeconds/viewCount per watch page: video-verification.json.

Explicit gaps (could not close)

  1. No official Nous Research-produced tutorial video was found — video list is third-party ecosystem content (disclosed in 05).
  2. Slash commands were verified DOC-ONLY (https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/reference/slash-commands); they require an interactive session to exercise, which this headless run does not have. CLI equivalents were verified live.
  3. hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/developer-guide/ returned 404 — developer docs live in-repo (AGENTS.md in the GitHub repo), not as a docs site section.
