Prompt snippet library for the Hermes Desktop composer: a quick-pick overlay styled after the app's own slash menu (own shortcut), plus a management view with drag reordering, group tags and import/export. Inserts into the focused session, not the active one. UI in EN / 简中 / 繁體. v1.8.0 is fully SDK-only: the quick-pick overlay renders as an official Popover anchored to the plugin's own contributed node and all draft writes go through the host composer draft API. No local network; v1.6.0+ adds local JSON import/export via the system clipboard.

## 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 prompt-snippets
```

2. Said no? Turn it on later:

```bash
hermes plugins enable prompt-snippets
```

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
