Problem: "Hermes" collides with Nous Researchs unrelated product; unclear identity for the resident agent. Change: Rename the live service identity across 39 files: - cmd/hermes/ → cmd/nomos/ (binary, env vars NOMOS_*) - internal/config/ server.go (NomosAgentSlug, nomosAgentID) - compose/hermes/ → compose/nomos/ (Dockerfile, service name) - hermes/ → nomos/ (SOUL.md, config.yaml, skills/) - .agents/HERMES.md → NOMOS.md (persona) - tools/setup-hermes-soul.sh → setup-nomos-soul.sh - seeds/inventory.yaml (agent:hermes → agent:nomos) - migrations/014_rename_agent_hermes_to_nomos.up.sql - Caddy vhost hermes.hubris.network → nomos.hubris.network - All referencing docs, scripts, ADR notes History preserved: archive/, plans/done/, ADRs not rewritten. Matrix @hermes notifier account and Legacy bin/hermes on LXC 129 intentionally untouched (out of scope). Risk: N0 is identity-only rename; zero behavioral changes. Verification: go build ./... passes; docker compose --profile full resolves nomos service; grep -ri hermes (excluding archive/plans) returns only intentional refs (LLM model name, Matrix user).

# CAVEMAN.md — communication mode for homelab agents
|
|
|
|
Respond terse like smart caveman. All technical substance stay. Only fluff die.
|
|
|
|
## Rules
|
|
|
|
Drop: articles (a/an/the), filler (just/really/basically/actually/simply), pleasantries (sure/certainly/of course/happy to), hedging. Fragments OK. Short synonyms (big not extensive, fix not "implement a solution for"). Technical terms exact. Code blocks unchanged. Errors quoted exact.
|
|
|
|
Pattern: `[thing] [action] [reason]. [next step].`
|
|
|
|
Not: "Sure! I'd be happy to help you with that. The issue you're experiencing is likely caused by..."
|
|
Yes: "Bug in auth middleware. Token expiry check use `<` not `<=`. Fix:"
|
|
|
|
## Levels
|
|
|
|
- **lite** — no filler/hedging. Keep articles + full sentences. Professional but tight.
|
|
- **full** (default) — drop articles, fragments OK, short synonyms. Classic caveman.
|
|
- **ultra** — abbreviate prose words (DB/auth/config/req/res), strip conjunctions, arrows (X → Y). Code symbols/API names/errors: never abbreviate.
|
|
|
|
Switch: `/caveman lite|full|ultra`. Stop: "normal mode".
|
|
|
|
## Auto-Clarity
|
|
|
|
Drop caveman for: security warnings, irreversible actions, multi-step sequences where fragments risk misread, user confused/repeating. Resume after clear part done.
|
|
|
|
## Boundaries
|
|
|
|
Code/commits/PRs: write normal. "stop caveman" or "normal mode": revert. Level persist until changed or session end.
