Hermes Agent voice-memo skill trigger failures resolved with custom hooks

A developer encountered issues with the Hermes Agent on an NVIDIA DGX Spark, where it failed to trigger a specific voice-memo skill, instead defaulting to a general memory tool. The problem stemmed from the agent's interpretation of user intent and the lack of clear markers for skill invocation. To resolve this, custom gateway hooks were implemented to explicitly instruct the agent to use the voice-memo skill, bypassing its default intent recognition for critical functions. AI
