alt-glitch c3f85bc54f refactor(setup): delete profile role; the setup profile is a marked, plain profile
The setup toolset was reserved for `role: setup` in profile.yaml, resolved by
toolsets.profile_role_toolsets, and stripped from every other profile in
model_tools._select_tool_names. Onboarding also wrote that role into a user's
existing unmarked hermes-setup profile and adopted it, and cloned the literal
default profile.

Now there is no role anywhere. The setup profile carries a dot-file marker
(.setup-profile.json) at its root, and onboarding finds it by that marker. A
user's own unmarked hermes-setup is never touched: onboarding makes
hermes-setup-<word> instead. The new profile is cloned from the launch
profile, and its own config enables the setup toolset in
platform_toolsets.cli. The session resolver keeps the toolset only for
desktop sessions (toolsets.TOOLSET_SESSION_PLATFORMS). Copies (clone-all,
import, distribution install) drop the marker, as they dropped the role.

The role field also leaves ProfileInfo, the profiles.list and dashboard rows,
the onboarding.ensure_setup_profile result, the gateway contracts, and the
desktop ProfileInfo type. The desktop handoff recovery check no longer gates
on the roster role; the guide handoff receipt keyed by the stored session
already identifies the guide session.

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Reading the docs on GitHub? The Markdown under docs/ is authored for the rendered site at https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/. Cross-page links are relative Markdown paths, so they follow through on GitHub's file viewer too. Every page on the site has an Edit this page link that opens the source file here.

  • Link to another page with a relative Markdown path, anchors included: [Profiles](../user-guide/profiles.md), [Bundles](../user-guide/features/skills.md#skill-bundles). Docusaurus turns the file path into the page route; GitHub follows the same path. Site routes (/user-guide/profiles, /docs/user-guide/profiles) only work on the rendered site — GitHub resolves them as repository paths and 404s, and the /docs/ form also emits /docs/zh-Hans/docs/... 404s in the zh-Hans build because baseUrl is already /docs/.
  • python3 website/scripts/check_doc_links.py fails on any route-style link in hand-authored pages (EN and the zh-Hans mirror); --fix rewrites them. It runs in the Docs Site Checks workflow. Generated pages (user-guide/skills/{bundled,optional}, reference/*skills-catalog.md) are produced by scripts/generate-skill-docs.py, which emits the same relative form.
  • Pin {#anchor} on cross-linked headings so the zh-Hans mirror keeps the same id.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
