Documentation

README

hermes-gateway-doctor

Overview

A read-only gateway doctor that verifies the actual process instead of trusting stale state files and keeps credential handling out of command history and reports.

The skill is evidence-first. It identifies unavailable evidence, separates facts from interpretations, and does not claim a repair or successful outcome merely because a command returned without an obvious error.

When to Use

  • Telegram stopped responding through Hermes.
  • Is my Hermes gateway actually running?
  • Diagnose a gateway polling conflict.
  • Why are scheduled messages not delivering?
