What it does
Archify is an agent skill from NousResearch/hermes-agent. Validated interactive HTML diagrams, upstream-maintained.
Its SKILL.md is about 610 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Diagrams and HTML artifacts. The repository describes itself as: The agent that grows with you. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Diagrams
- Tasks that involve HTML artifacts
Example prompts
- “/archify”
Requirements
- Node.js
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0e37a43. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
nodenpm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
github.com
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.
Context cost
Archify loads about 612 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 16 tokens; SKILL.md has 255 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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Archify (upstream-maintained)
Catalog stub. This entry is maintained upstream at tt-a1i/archify: the project ships a self-contained skill directory (
archify/) with the Node CLI, schemas, renderers, examples and references.hermes skills install official/creative/archifypulls the current tree live from that repo (quarantined and scanned like any hub install) — this directory holds only the catalog metadata, so the vendored copy can never go stale.
Archify turns a small typed JSON spec into a self-contained, explorable HTML
diagram: architecture, workflow, sequence, dataflow and lifecycle
(state machine) types, dark/light themes, pan/zoom, search, relationship
tracing, optional trace motion, and PNG/JPEG/WebP/SVG/WebM export. It accepts
plain-language requirements or pasted Mermaid (flowchart, sequenceDiagram,
stateDiagram) and can read repository evidence when the diagram must reflect
real code. Every candidate goes through a 9-check validate / deliver
receipt, so the output is verifiable rather than eyeballed.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ on
PATH(node bin/archify.mjs doctorconfirms the install; nonpm installis needed inside the skill package). - Installs pull ~200 files (~8 MB, mostly upstream tests and examples) from GitHub; the fetch is pinned to one tree SHA, recorded in the bundle metadata.
- Upstream's "Update awareness" step runs
scripts/check-update.mjs, which reads a release manifest from GitHub and only prints a notice — it never downloads or installs anything. Skip it if outbound calls are unwanted.
After install, the bundled architecture-diagram skill remains the
zero-dependency fallback (it ports the same Cocoon AI lineage archify grew out
of); prefer archify when the user wants validated receipts, Mermaid conversion,
sequence/lifecycle types, or export beyond a single HTML file.
