docs: deep audit — fix stale config keys, missing commands, and registry drift (#22784) 
* docs: deep audit — fix stale config keys, missing commands, and registry drift

Cross-checked ~80 high-impact docs pages (getting-started, reference, top-level
user-guide, user-guide/features) against the live registries:

  hermes_cli/commands.py    COMMAND_REGISTRY (slash commands)
  hermes_cli/auth.py        PROVIDER_REGISTRY (providers)
  hermes_cli/config.py      DEFAULT_CONFIG (config keys)
  toolsets.py               TOOLSETS (toolsets)
  tools/registry.py         get_all_tool_names() (tools)
  python -m hermes_cli.main <subcmd> --help (CLI args)

reference/
- cli-commands.md: drop duplicate hermes fallback row + duplicate section,
  add stepfun/lmstudio to --provider enum, expand auth/mcp/curator subcommand
  lists to match --help output (status/logout/spotify, login, archive/prune/
  list-archived).
- slash-commands.md: add missing /sessions and /reload-skills entries +
  correct the cross-platform Notes line.
- tools-reference.md: drop bogus '68 tools' headline, drop fictional
  'browser-cdp toolset' (these tools live in 'browser' and are runtime-gated),
  add missing 'kanban' and 'video' toolset sections, fix MCP example to use
  the real mcp_<server>_<tool> prefix.
- toolsets-reference.md: list browser_cdp/browser_dialog inside the 'browser'
  row, add missing 'kanban' and 'video' toolset rows, drop the stale
  '38 tools' count for hermes-cli.
- profile-commands.md: add missing install/update/info subcommands, document
  fish completion.
- environment-variables.md: dedupe GMI_API_KEY/GMI_BASE_URL rows (kept the
  one with the correct gmi-serving.com default).
- faq.md: Anthropic/Google/OpenAI examples — direct providers exist (not just
  via OpenRouter), refresh the OpenAI model list.

getting-started/
- installation.md: PortableGit (not MinGit) is what the Windows installer
  fetches; document the 32-bit MinGit fallback.
- installation.md / termux.md: installer prefers .[termux-all] then falls
  back to .[termux].
- nix-setup.md: Python 3.12 (not 3.11), Node.js 22 (not 20); fix invalid
  'nix flake update --flake' invocation.
- updating.md: 'hermes backup restore --state pre-update' doesn't exist —
  point at the snapshot/quick-snapshot flow; correct config key
  'updates.pre_update_backup' (was 'update.backup').

user-guide/
- configuration.md: api_max_retries default 3 (not 2); display.runtime_footer
  is the real key (not display.runtime_metadata_footer); checkpoints defaults
  enabled=false / max_snapshots=20 (not true / 50).
- configuring-models.md: 'hermes model list' / 'hermes model set ...' don't
  exist — hermes model is interactive only.
- tui.md: busy_indicator -> tui_status_indicator with values
  kaomoji|emoji|unicode|ascii (not kawaii|minimal|dots|wings|none).
- security.md: SSH backend keys (TERMINAL_SSH_HOST/USER/KEY) live in .env,
  not config.yaml.
- windows-wsl-quickstart.md: there is no 'hermes api' subcommand — the
  OpenAI-compatible API server runs inside hermes gateway.

user-guide/features/
- computer-use.md: approvals.mode (not security.approval_level); fix broken
  ./browser-use.md link to ./browser.md.
- fallback-providers.md: top-level fallback_providers (not
  model.fallback_providers); the picker is subcommand-based, not modal.
- api-server.md: API_SERVER_* are env vars — write to per-profile .env,
  not 'hermes config set' which targets YAML.
- web-search.md: drop web_crawl as a registered tool (it isn't); deep-crawl
  modes are exposed through web_extract.
- kanban.md: failure_limit default is 2, not '~5'.
- plugins.md: drop hard-coded '33 providers' count.
- honcho.md: fix unclosed quote in echo HONCHO_API_KEY snippet; document
  that 'hermes honcho' subcommand is gated on memory.provider=honcho;
  reconcile subcommand list with actual --help output.
- memory-providers.md: legacy 'hermes honcho setup' redirect documented.

Verified via 'npm run build' — site builds cleanly; broken-link count went
from 149 to 146 (no regressions, fixed a few in passing).

* docs: round 2 audit fixes + regenerate skill catalogs

Follow-up to the previous commit on this branch:

Round 2 manual fixes:
- quickstart.md: KIMI_CODING_API_KEY mentioned alongside KIMI_API_KEY;
  voice-mode and ACP install commands rewritten — bare 'pip install ...'
  doesn't work for curl-installed setups (no pip on PATH, not in repo
  dir); replaced with 'cd ~/.hermes/hermes-agent && uv pip install -e
  ".[voice]"'. ACP already ships in [all] so the curl install includes it.
- cli.md / configuration.md: 'auxiliary.compression.model' shown as
  'google/gemini-3-flash-preview' (the doc's own claimed default);
  actual default is empty (= use main model). Reworded as 'leave empty
  (default) or pin a cheap model'.
- built-in-plugins.md: added the bundled 'kanban/dashboard' plugin row
  that was missing from the table.

Regenerated skill catalogs:
- ran website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py to refresh all 163 per-skill
  pages and both reference catalogs (skills-catalog.md,
  optional-skills-catalog.md). This adds the entries that were genuinely
  missing — productivity/teams-meeting-pipeline (bundled),
  optional/finance/* (entire category — 7 skills:
  3-statement-model, comps-analysis, dcf-model, excel-author, lbo-model,
  merger-model, pptx-author), creative/hyperframes,
  creative/kanban-video-orchestrator, devops/watchers,
  productivity/shop-app, research/searxng-search,
  apple/macos-computer-use — and rewrites every other per-skill page from
  the current SKILL.md. Most diffs are tiny (one line of refreshed
  metadata).

Validation:
- 'npm run build' succeeded.
- Broken-link count moved 146 -> 155 — the +9 are zh-Hans translation
  shells that lag every newly-added skill page (pre-existing pattern).
  No regressions on any en/ page.

# Baoyu Comic
Knowledge comics (知识漫画): educational, biography, tutorial.
## Skill metadata
| | |
|---|---|
| Source | Bundled (installed by default) |
| Path | `skills/creative/baoyu-comic` |
| Version | `1.56.1` |

## Reference: full SKILL.md
:::info
The following is the complete skill definition that Hermes loads when this skill is triggered. This is what the agent sees as instructions when the skill is active.
:::
# Knowledge Comic Creator
Adapted from [baoyu-comic](https://github.com/JimLiu/baoyu-skills) for Hermes Agent's tool ecosystem.
Create original knowledge comics with flexible art style × tone combinations.
## When to Use
Trigger this skill when the user asks to create a knowledge/educational comic, biography comic, tutorial comic, or uses terms like "知识漫画", "教育漫画", or "Logicomix-style". The user provides content (text, file path, URL, or topic) and optionally specifies art style, tone, layout, aspect ratio, or language.
## Reference Images
Hermes' `image_generate` tool is **prompt-only** — it accepts a text prompt and an aspect ratio, and returns an image URL. It does **NOT** accept reference images. When the user supplies a reference image, use it to **extract traits in text** that get embedded in every page prompt:
**Intake**: Accept file paths when the user provides them (or pastes images in conversation).
- File path(s) → copy to `refs/NN-ref-{slug}.{ext}` alongside the comic output for provenance
- Pasted image with no path → ask the user for the path via `clarify`, or extract style traits verbally as a text fallback
- No reference → skip this section
**Usage modes** (per reference):
| Usage | Effect |
|-------|--------|
| `style` | Extract style traits (line treatment, texture, mood) and append to every page's prompt body |
| `palette` | Extract hex colors and append to every page's prompt body |
| `scene` | Extract scene composition or subject notes and append to the relevant page(s) |
**Record in each page's prompt frontmatter** when refs exist:
```yaml
references:
- ref_id: 01
filename: 01-ref-scene.png
usage: style
traits: "muted earth tones, soft-edged ink wash, low-contrast backgrounds"
```
Character consistency is driven by **text descriptions** in `characters/characters.md` (written in Step 3) that get embedded inline in every page prompt (Step 5). The optional PNG character sheet generated in Step 7.1 is a human-facing review artifact, not an input to `image_generate`.

Full rules at `references/presets/<preset>.md` — load the file when a preset is picked.
- **Compatibility matrix** and **content-signal → preset** table live in [references/auto-selection.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/skills/creative/baoyu-comic/references/auto-selection.md). Read it before recommending combinations in Step 2.
## File Structure
Output directory: `comic/{topic-slug}/`
- Slug: 2-4 words kebab-case from topic (e.g., `alan-turing-bio`)
- Conflict: append timestamp (e.g., `turing-story-20260118-143052`)
**Contents**:
| File | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `source-{slug}.md` | Saved source content (kebab-case slug matches the output directory) |
| `analysis.md` | Content analysis |
| `storyboard.md` | Storyboard with panel breakdown |
| `characters/characters.md` | Character definitions |
| `characters/characters.png` | Character reference sheet (downloaded from `image_generate`) |
| `prompts/NN-{cover\|page}-[slug].md` | Generation prompts |
| `NN-{cover\|page}-[slug].png` | Generated images (downloaded from `image_generate`) |
| `refs/NN-ref-{slug}.{ext}` | User-supplied reference images (optional, for provenance) |
## Language Handling
**Detection Priority**:
1. User-specified language (explicit option)
2. User's conversation language
3. Source content language
**Rule**: Use user's input language for ALL interactions:
- Storyboard outlines and scene descriptions
- Image generation prompts
- User selection options and confirmations
- Progress updates, questions, errors, summaries
Technical terms remain in English.
## Workflow
### Progress Checklist

- [ ] Step 8: Completion report
```
### Flow
```
Input → Analyze → [Check Existing?] → [Confirm: Style + Reviews] → Storyboard → [Review?] → Prompts → [Review?] → Images → Complete
```
### Step Summary
| Step | Action | Key Output |
|------|--------|------------|
| 1.1 | Analyze content | `analysis.md`, `source-{slug}.md` |
| 1.2 | Check existing directory | Handle conflicts |
| 2 | Confirm style, focus, audience, reviews | User preferences |
| 3 | Generate storyboard + characters | `storyboard.md`, `characters/` |
| 4 | Review outline (if requested) | User approval |
| 5 | Generate prompts | `prompts/*.md` |
| 6 | Review prompts (if requested) | User approval |
| 7.1 | Generate character sheet (if needed) | `characters/characters.png` |
| 7.2 | Generate pages | `*.png` files |
| 8 | Completion report | Summary |
### User Questions
Use the `clarify` tool to confirm options. Since `clarify` handles one question at a time, ask the most important question first and proceed sequentially. See [references/workflow.md](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/blob/main/skills/creative/baoyu-comic/references/workflow.md) for the full Step 2 question set.
**Timeout handling (CRITICAL)**: `clarify` can return `"The user did not provide a response within the time limit. Use your best judgement to make the choice and proceed."` — this is NOT user consent to default everything.
- Treat it as a default **for that one question only**. Continue asking the remaining Step 2 questions in sequence; each question is an independent consent point.
- **Surface the default to the user visibly** in your next message so they have a chance to correct it: e.g. `"Style: defaulted to ohmsha preset (clarify timed out). Say the word to switch."` — an unreported default is indistinguishable from never having asked.
- Do NOT collapse Step 2 into a single "use all defaults" pass after one timeout. If the user is genuinely absent, they will be equally absent for all five questions — but they can correct visible defaults when they return, and cannot correct invisible ones.
### Step 7: Image Generation
Use Hermes' built-in `image_generate` tool for all image rendering. Its schema accepts only `prompt` and `aspect_ratio` (`landscape` | `portrait` | `square`); it **returns a URL**, not a local file. Every generated page or character sheet must therefore be downloaded to the output directory.
**Prompt file requirement (hard)**: write each image's full, final prompt to a standalone file under `prompts/` (naming: `NN-{type}-[slug].md`) BEFORE calling `image_generate`. The prompt file is the reproducibility record.
**Aspect ratio mapping** — the storyboard's `aspect_ratio` field maps to `image_generate`'s format as follows:
| Storyboard ratio | `image_generate` format |
|------------------|-------------------------|
| `3:4`, `9:16`, `2:3` | `portrait` |
| `4:3`, `16:9`, `3:2` | `landscape` |
| `1:1` | `square` |
**Download step** — after every `image_generate` call:
1. Read the URL from the tool result
2. Fetch the image bytes using an **absolute** output path, e.g.
`curl -fsSL "<url>" -o /abs/path/to/comic/<slug>/NN-page-<slug>.png`
3. Verify the file exists and is non-empty at that exact path before proceeding to the next page
**Never rely on shell CWD persistence for `-o` paths.** The terminal tool's persistent-shell CWD can change between batches (session expiry, `TERMINAL_LIFETIME_SECONDS`, a failed `cd` that leaves you in the wrong directory). `curl -o relative/path.png` is a silent footgun: if CWD has drifted, the file lands somewhere else with no error. **Always pass a fully-qualified absolute path to `-o`**, or pass `workdir=<abs path>` to the terminal tool. Incident Apr 2026: pages 06-09 of a 10-page comic landed at the repo root instead of `comic/<slug>/` because batch 3 inherited a stale CWD from batch 2 and `curl -o 06-page-skills.png` wrote to the wrong directory. The agent then spent several turns claiming the files existed where they didn't.
**7.1 Character sheet** — generate it (to `characters/characters.png`, aspect `landscape`) when the comic is multi-page with recurring characters. Skip for simple presets (e.g., four-panel minimalist) or single-page comics. The prompt file at `characters/characters.md` must exist before invoking `image_generate`. The rendered PNG is a **human-facing review artifact** (so the user can visually verify character design) and a reference for later regenerations or manual prompt edits — it does **not** drive Step 7.2. Page prompts are already written in Step 5 from the **text descriptions** in `characters/characters.md`; `image_generate` cannot accept images as visual input.
**7.2 Pages** — each page's prompt MUST already be at `prompts/NN-{cover|page}-[slug].md` before invoking `image_generate`. Because `image_generate` is prompt-only, character consistency is enforced by **embedding character descriptions (sourced from `characters/characters.md`) inline in every page prompt during Step 5**. The embedding is done uniformly whether or not a PNG sheet is produced in 7.1; the PNG is only a review/regeneration aid.
**Backup rule**: existing `prompts/…md` and `…png` files → rename with `-backup-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS` suffix before regenerating.

## Page Modification
| Action | Steps |
|--------|-------|
| **Edit** | **Update prompt file FIRST** → regenerate image → download new PNG |
| **Add** | Create prompt at position → generate with character descriptions embedded → renumber subsequent → update storyboard |
| **Delete** | Remove files → renumber subsequent → update storyboard |
**IMPORTANT**: When updating pages, ALWAYS update the prompt file (`prompts/NN-{cover|page}-[slug].md`) FIRST before regenerating. This ensures changes are documented and reproducible.
## Pitfalls
- Image generation: 10-30 seconds per page; auto-retry once on failure
- **Always download** the URL returned by `image_generate` to a local PNG — downstream tooling (and the user's review) expects files in the output directory, not ephemeral URLs
- **Use absolute paths for `curl -o`** — never rely on persistent-shell CWD across batches. Silent footgun: files land in the wrong directory and subsequent `ls` on the intended path shows nothing. See Step 7 "Download step".
- Use stylized alternatives for sensitive public figures
- **Step 2 confirmation required** - do not skip
- **Steps 4/6 conditional** - only if user requested in Step 2
- **Step 7.1 character sheet** - recommended for multi-page comics, optional for simple presets. The PNG is a review/regeneration aid; page prompts (written in Step 5) use the text descriptions in `characters/characters.md`, not the PNG. `image_generate` does not accept images as visual input
- **Strip secrets** — scan source content for API keys, tokens, or credentials before writing any output file
