What it does
Opensource Contributions is an agent skill from magnus919/hermes-profiles. Make good open source contributions — check CONTRIBUTING.md first, follow project norms, be a good citizen. Covers bug reports, feature requests, and pull requests with a defensible default posture when the project hasn't documented expectations.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 27 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/agent-checklist.md`, `references/ci-debugging-loop.md` and `references/contribution-idea-filtering.md`). Compatibility notes: Compatible with any agent supporting the Agent Skills format (Hermes Agent, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, Cursor, etc.)
It sits in Development, covering Pull requests and QA and bug reports. The repository describes itself as: Curated Hermes Agent profiles for specialist swarms — opinionated, Hermes-optimized, artifact-pyramid native. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Pull requests
- Tasks that involve QA and bug reports
Example prompts
- “/opensource-contributions”
Requirements
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Compatible with any agent supporting the Agent Skills format (Hermes Agent, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, Cursor, etc.)
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 867a555. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
gitghmakenpm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, gh and npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Compatibility
Compatible with any agent supporting the Agent Skills format (Hermes Agent, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, Cursor, etc.)
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Opensource Contributions loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~38k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 610 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
The full file from magnus919/hermes-profiles at commit 867a555, republished under its MIT licence (© magnus919). 610 words, ~1,406 tokens.

Open Source Contributions
The Golden Rule
Make it easy for maintainers to absorb your contribution. Maintainers are often under-resourced volunteers or small teams. Every friction point you remove — unclear reproduction steps, missing tests, bad commit messages, force-pushed history — is time they don't have to spend figuring out what you did and why. The whole point is to help them, not create more work.
When to Use This Skill
- Filing a bug report or feature request on a public repository
- Preparing a pull request for any open source project
- Working on a project without documented contributing guidelines (default posture)
- Reviewing your own PR before submission
- Setting up open source conventions for your own project
Load the relevant phase reference for detailed instructions.
Quick Phase Overview
| Phase | What It Covers | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| 0a — Maintainer Conventions | README discipline, LICENSE, CONTRIBUTING.md, issue/PR templates, commit conventions, DCO, release workflow hygiene | references/phase-0a-maintainer-conventions.md |
| 0 — Before You Start | Reading CONTRIBUTING.md, checking existing issues/PRs, triaging bugfix candidates, large-change discussion etiquette | references/phase-0-before-you-start.md |
| 1 — Filing Issues | Bug report and feature request templates, agent disclosure, maintainer workflow ("issue first"), coordinated multi-issue roadmaps, multi-PR plan execution | references/phase-1-filing-issues.md |
| 2 — Pull Requests | Branching conventions, scope assessment, studying existing implementations, cross-repo comparison, commit messages, PR templates, documentation audits, CI setup | references/phase-2-pull-requests.md |
| 3 — After Submitting | CI monitoring, responding to review feedback, what to do if your PR goes stale or gets closed | references/phase-3-after-submitting.md |
| 3.5 — Follow-up After Scope Feedback | Systematic call-site audits, filing comprehensive issues, complementary PRs when maintainer scope notes identify gaps | references/phase-35-followup.md |
| 4 — Release Process | Version bumping, tagging, GitHub Releases vs tags, release workflow anatomy, handling failed releases | references/phase-4-release-process.md |
Default Posture (No CONTRIBUTING.md)
When a project has no contributing guide, load references/default-posture.md for defensible defaults on issue filing, PRs, communication norms, and code of conduct.
Agent-Specific Checklist
If you are an AI agent filing or contributing on behalf of a human, load references/agent-checklist.md before submitting anything.
Pitfalls
Load references/pitfalls.md when you're about to submit an issue or PR, or when something goes wrong. Covers: backtick expansion, silent label failures, force-push etiquette, the "I'll just fix it quickly" trap, cross-fork PR issues, post-merge scope creep, the installed-code trap, CI debugging, and more.
Show full SKILL.md (256 more words)Show less
The Agent-Specific Rule
When filing an issue on behalf of a human, always disclose the agentic nature. Add this line at the bottom of the issue body:
Filed by {{AGENT_NAME}} (AI agent on behalf of {{HUMAN_NAME}})This is a transparency requirement, not a courtesy. Maintainers deserve to know who they're talking to.
Quick Reference Card
| Step | Action | Command / Check |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Read contributing guide | cat CONTRIBUTING.md or .github/CONTRIBUTING.md |
| 0 | Check existing issues | gh issue list --search "topic" --state all |
| 1 | File a bug/feature | Use template if provided; include reproduction for bugs |
| 2 | Issue first before coding | File issue, wait for maintainer feedback, then branch |
| 3 | Branch | git checkout -b fix/description |
| 4 | Commit | git commit -s -m "fix: description" |
| 5 | Run tests locally | make test or npm test or pytest |
| 6 | Push | git push -u origin HEAD |
| 7 | Open PR | Fill out PR template completely. Use --body-file for complex bodies |
| 8 | Monitor CI | gh pr checks --watch |
| 9 | Address review | Respond to comments, push fixup commits. No force-push after review |
| 10 | After merge | git checkout main && git pull && git tag vX.Y.Z && git push origin main --tags |
| 11 | Create Release | gh release create vX.Y.Z --title "vX.Y.Z — Title" --notes-file /tmp/notes.md |
When NOT to Use This Skill
- You're the sole maintainer of a project with no external contributors and no public collaborators
- You're making a trivial single-line fix to your own code
- The contribution is internal (same organization, same team) with established workflow norms
- You already know the project's contributing guidelines by heart and this is routine
- The issue is a security vulnerability — follow the project's security disclosure policy instead
