## Overview

Use this skill to grade a Hermes Agent `SOUL.md`, draft a SOUL review, or turn a weak SOUL into a stronger one. The grading standard is intentionally narrow: **use the linked SOUL.md research artifacts as the only normative source for what makes a good SOUL.md.**

Do not import generic prompt-engineering advice, personal taste, web articles, model-provider docs, or vibes into the grade. You may use tools to read the SOUL being graded and to verify Hermes runtime facts, but quality judgments must come from the research artifacts bundled with this skill.
