Real use case

Turn a job you just walked your agent through into a skill

After a work session with Hermes Agent, the poster asks it to turn what they just did into a skill, so he doesn't have to explain the process again next time. Since a bloated setup hurts results, he also has it check its own setup now and then: prompt size, skills, memory, scheduled jobs and permissions.

Copy this prompt

Turn what we just did into a saved skill I can reuse. Write the steps in order, what you need from me at the start and how to check the result. Keep it short. Then list my current skills and point out any that overlap or that we haven't used in a month.

Our own prompt, written from what the source describes. We haven't run it ourselves. Text in [BRACKETS] is what you replace.
