Initializes the autonomous agent in the current project. Creates the state directory, templates, OPERATOR.md, and config.json. Detects installed hermits. Run once per project, like git init.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Initialize Autonomous Agent Set up the autonomous agent for this project. This creates the per-project state directory, configures the project for session-based work, and optionally activates hermits. **`AskUserQuestion` convention — applies to every question in this skill, both branches.** Each question needs 2-4 `options` (Other is auto-provided for free text), and each option needs both a `label` and a `description`; a bare label is rejected as an invalid tool parameter. Where a step lists options as bare labels (the tables in Step 5a, the activation prompts), write a short description for each before sending the call. ## Plan ### 1. Check if already initialized Check whether `.hermit/config.json` exists in the current project. That file (written at Step 5) is the authoritative "already initialized" signal — not the bare presence of the `.hermit/` directory. An empty `state/` tree or a half-written tree left by an aborted prior run both count as **not** initialized. …

How to install
mdr add gtapps/claude-code-hermit/hatch@sha256:d2cb9726725b673bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.12f1cfb, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
