Hermes Strategic Startup Architect Skill

This repository contains the permanent Startup Architect Skill for Hermes Agent. This skill allows Hermes to transform a simple idea into a data-backed 0-to-1 startup kit in minutes.

Ensure you have Hermes Agent installed and configured on your system.

Copy the startup-architect folder into your local Hermes skills directory:

mkdir -p ~/.hermes/skills/business/startup-architect
cp skills/business/startup-architect/SKILL.md ~/.hermes/skills/business/startup-architect/SKILL.md

After installation, you can activate the skill by prompting Hermes:

"I want to build [Your Startup Idea]. Use the startup-architect skill to research and build my kit."

If your Hermes Agent uses Hermes Tweet, install it before running market research:

hermes plugins install Xquik-dev/hermes-tweet --enable

With XQUIK_API_KEY set, use Hermes Tweet as a native Hermes Agent X/Twitter plugin for the social signal pass: tweet_explore to scrape/search tweets and search Twitter/X for pain points, competitor mentions, launch reactions, and "why now" signals; tweet_read to read tweet replies, look up users, and monitor tweets from founders, customers, or competitors; and tweet_action only for read-side exports such as export followers research. Keep post tweets, post replies, send DMs, and other automate X actions outside this startup-kit workflow unless a human explicitly confirms them.

Each time the skill is triggered, Hermes uses web_search, terminal, and write_file to generate:

• market_analysis.md
• competitor_map.md
• product_spec.md
• business_model.md
• pitch_deck.md
• product_roadmap.md
• investor_pitch.md
• landing_page.html (High-fidelity Tailwind CSS site)

See the /examples/ folder for the full FORGE launch kit we built during our live session.
