SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Hermes TUI slash commands can misbehave across the Python backend, the gateway, and the Ink frontend. This skill helps you diagnose and fix cross-layer command issues quickly, improving autocomplete, consistency, and user experience.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-layer debugging workflow for Hermes TUI slash commands spanning Python backend, gateway, and frontend.
  • Guided investigations for missing COMMAND_REGISTRY entries, gateway handling, and local Ink handlers.
  • Quick hypothesis testing and step-by-step verification to reproduce, isolate, and fix issues in production-like environments.

Quick Start

Run Hermes in TUI mode and reproduce the slash-command issue to begin the cross-layer debugging workflow.

FAQPage Schema
Why do Hermes TUI slash commands fail to execute or autocomplete correctly?▼

Slash command failures in Hermes TUI often stem from cross-layer issues spanning the Python backend, gateway, and Ink frontend, requiring systematic debugging to locate registration mismatches or dispatch errors.

How do I debug missing slash commands in the Hermes TUI COMMAND_REGISTRY?▼

To debug missing Hermes TUI slash commands, check the Python backend COMMAND_REGISTRY for registration mismatches, verify the tui_gateway dispatch paths, and inspect local Ink handlers in the frontend.

What is the best way to troubleshoot cross-layer synchronization issues in a TUI gateway?▼

Troubleshooting TUI gateway synchronization involves tracing command execution paths across the Python backend and frontend, verifying gateway dispatch logic, and testing hypotheses step-by-step in a production-like environment.

How do I fix Hermes TUI slash command issues across Python, gateway, and Ink frontend layers?▼

Fixing Hermes TUI slash command issues requires a cross-layer debugging workflow: reproduce the issue, isolate the failing layer by checking COMMAND_REGISTRY and tui_gateway, inspect local Ink handlers, and apply targeted fixes.

When should I investigate local Ink handlers for TUI slash command problems?▼

Investigate local Ink handlers when the Python backend COMMAND_REGISTRY and tui_gateway dispatch paths are verified correct, but the frontend still fails to execute commands or display autocomplete suggestions properly.

Can I use this debugging workflow for TUI slash commands in any TypeScript frontend?▼

This workflow specifically targets Hermes TUI slash commands built with an Ink frontend, Python backend, and gateway layer, guiding cross-layer synchronization checks rather than general TypeScript TUI debugging.
