Hermes gateway integration for DeskRPG virtual offices, with profiles, kanban, cron, artifacts and NPC skill management. Install it through the DeskRPG setup wizard. Optional (off by default): when enabled by the operator, links the plugin into every profile so kanban workers and cron runs can save artifacts.

## Good to know before installing

NPC skill management runs hermes skills/curator commands as background subprocesses per profile and edits that profile's skills, config.yaml and memory files; creating new review-policy kanban cards needs a review-policy API that upstream Hermes does not ship (the README points at the author's hermes-agent fork for it), and that feature stays inert on upstream.

From the plugin's catalog listing.

## How to install

1. Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.

```bash
hermes plugins install deskrpg
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable deskrpg
```

3. Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.

Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see the official page. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/plugins
