What it does

Omh Parallel Tools is an agent skill from rlaope/oh-my-hermes. [omh] Parallel tool-call capability in doubt: check version currency and parallel-tool capability status, then apply an update only after diff approval. Use when the user says: parallel-tools, parallel tools, hermes parallel tools setup, update hermes for parallel tools, check parallel tool support, enable parallel tool calls, verify parallel tools capability, check hermes version for parallel tools.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: All in one plugin for Hermes Agent ⚚ the coding intelligence, a long-term memory system and model optimized workflow packages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says: parallel-tools
  • Hermes parallel tools setup
  • Update hermes for parallel tools
  • Check parallel tool support

Example prompts

  • “/omh-parallel-tools”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f772a94. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Omh Parallel Tools loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 894 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~106
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

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.

[omh] Parallel tool-call capability in doubt: check version currency and parallel-tool capability status, then apply an update only after diff approval.

Parallel Tools

This is a Hermes-native parallel-tools workflow skill.

Why This Exists

parallel-tools exists to give a quick, read-first answer to whether parallel tool calls are current and enabled, with an update path only when currency is actually missing.

Do Not Use When

  • The user wants a general Hermes update unrelated to parallel-tool capability.
  • No version or capability question has been asked yet.
  • The request needs a repository code change rather than a local version check.

Examples

Good example:

  • Prompt: update hermes for parallel tools — can you check if I'm on a current enough version?
  • Expected behavior: Read the installed version and capability status, report whether parallel tools are current, and hand back a user-runnable update command if not.
  • Why: The request is a version-currency and capability check, the core of this skill.

Bad example:

  • Prompt: parallel-tools: update your memory with what we discussed.
  • Expected behavior: Route to a memory workflow instead of a version-currency check.
  • Why: Memory update is unrelated to parallel-tool capability or Hermes version.

Completion Checklist

  • If a prerequisite is unmet, mark that item "not applicable" and continue with the rest of the guide instead of blocking or guessing.
  • Success is applicable-only: verification passes when every applicable item is confirmed complete, not when every possible item exists.
  • The reported capability status matches an observed read, not an assumed default.

Recovery Notes

  • If the installed version cannot be read, report the read failure and stop before recommending an update.
  • If the update command is unavailable for the user's install path, name the blocker instead of guessing a fix.

Workflow Lane

  • Current lane: Automation and status (achievements, workspace-audit, production-audit, live-incident-response, automation-blueprint, github-event-ops, github-issue-intake, buzz, +39 more) - schedules, status, health, and ops review.
  • If intent belongs to another lane, hand back to oh-my-hermes or name the adjacent workflow.
  • Shared product, routing, compatibility, and evidence rules: omh-routing/references/skill-common-rail.md.

Use When

Use when the user wants Hermes to check whether parallel tool calls are current and enabled, run a version-currency check, or report capability status, following the shared prerequisite-check, diagnose, guide, diff-approved apply, and verify contract.

Strong routing signals: `parallel-tools`, `parallel tools`, `hermes parallel tools setup`, `update hermes for parallel tools`, `check parallel tool support`, `enable parallel tool calls`, `verify parallel tools capability`, `check hermes version for parallel tools`, `헤르메스 업데이트 확인해줘`, `병렬 도구 설정`, `병렬 툴 확인`, `헤르메스 병렬 도구`

Catalog Metadata

Category: hermes-setup Phase: setup Hermes role: guide Quality tier: hermes-setup-gated Reasoning demand: light

Quality bar:

  • Prerequisite check: confirm required access; mark unmet prerequisites "not applicable" and skip them.
  • Read-only diagnose: inspect non-secret config metadata, .env key names and presence only, and version; no secret reads or writes.
  • Guide: use Hermes-native secure entry or user-side OAuth/token setup, never chat secrets.
  • Diff-approved apply: show the config or .env diff with redacted placeholders; apply only after the user explicitly approves.
  • Verify: confirm applicable items using non-secret metadata, never secret values.
  • This is mostly a verify-only walkthrough: prefer reporting capability status over proposing a config change when parallel tools are already current.

Handoff policy:

Run diagnosis and reporting directly in Hermes for parallel-tool capability. Diagnosis reads non-secret metadata only; no writes. Show redacted placeholders in the config or .env diff; apply only after the user explicitly approves. Never ask the user to paste secrets into chat. Use Hermes-native secure entry or user-side OAuth/token setup; if unavailable, stop credential application and guide user-side setup. Use only a user-authorized credential store or local configuration; disclose destination and scope first. Keep secrets out of chat, previews, logs and evidence. Do not promise chat or platform non-retention. Delegate to a selected coding executor only if the user needs a change outside a local version/config check.

Required inputs:

  • installed Hermes version
  • current parallel-tool capability status

Expected outputs:

  • read-only diagnosis of the installed version and parallel-tool capability status
  • a user-runnable update command to check or restore version currency
  • a capability status report naming which parallel-tool features are active

Artifact expectations:

  • capability status note when the wrapper captures it

Safety rules:

  • Do not name a specific version number, release date, or product tier; read and report the installed version instead of assuming one.
  • Report the update command for the user to run themselves rather than claiming Hermes restarted or reloaded on its own.

Runtime Evidence

Preferred harness for this skill: hermes-setup.

sh
omh runtime record --skill parallel-tools --harness hermes-setup --status started

Record observed delegation results; otherwise return not_available or not_observed. Prepared OMH routing is not execution, review, CI, merge-readiness, or merge evidence.

  • Treat wrapper memory/context summaries as advisory local context, not proof of opaque Hermes memory reads or changes. Preserve workflow intent and stop conditions; verify before claiming completion. Reply in the user's own words and the host's own voice: its SOUL.md persona owns reply language, tone, speech level, and sentence endings, progress updates included (where it sets no language, use the one the user wrote in), and OMH shapes structure and content only; OMH's record terms (surface, lane, wrapper, handoff, evidence boundary, not_observed) stay in records and tool calls, never in the sentence the user reads unless they ask about one; and when a stop condition or a decision the user owns ends the turn, offer the next action as a question rather than declaring what will not be done.

Use Hermes-native subagent/delegation features when available: native subagents -> Hermes delegation when available, otherwise sequential lanes.

Shared product, compatibility, topology, memory, harness, and execution rules: omh-routing/references/skill-common-rail.md. Load it when applicable; otherwise name an unavailable capability.
