Ard Kit
Agentic Resource Discovery — search a local tool catalog by intent and inspect an entry to get its invoke command. Ships the ard-registry skill plus an stdio MCP server (ard_search / ard_inspect / ard_verify); stdlib only, the run stays local.
Good to know before installing
No network egress, no API keys and no environment variables read by the MCP front, which ranks a catalog JSON on disk; no catalog ships in the repo, so the first call returns an explicit error naming the `python -m ard_kit.catalogize` command that builds one.
From the plugin's catalog listing.
How to install
- Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
hermes plugins install ard-kit - Said no? Turn it on later:
hermes plugins enable ard-kit - Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.
Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
