Harness Session Inventory
This is a Hermes-native harness-session-inventory workflow skill.
Why This Exists
harness-session-inventory exists so Hermes users can ask for this workflow in chat and receive a structured, evidence-bounded OMH operating surface instead of ad hoc narration.
Do Not Use When
- The request is already handled by a narrower explicit skill with stronger evidence.
- The user asks OMH to secretly run external platforms, connectors, schedulers, file exports, or runtime agents.
- The only safe answer is to ask for missing authority, credentials, target, or observed evidence first.
Examples
Good example:
- Prompt: harness-session-inventory compare Codex, Claude Code, Hermes, MCP configs, and worktrees for drift before we dispatch agents.
- Expected behavior: Produce
prepare_harness_session_inventory with required context, wrapper actions, and not-evidence boundaries.
- Why: The prompt names a real workflow surface that Hermes can orchestrate without hiding execution.
Bad example:
- Prompt: harness-session-inventory claim every MCP host loaded and every agent session is healthy from config files alone.
- Expected behavior: Report the missing observed evidence or authority instead of claiming the external step happened.
- Why: Prepared OMH guidance is not platform, runtime, connector, file, memory, or delivery evidence.
Completion Checklist
- The inventory scope names the harnesses, sessions, MCP hosts, connector configs, and worktrees being compared.
- Prepared, observed, missing, stale, and drifted entries are separated before any health or progress claim.
- The next action says whether to load a host, verify a connector, inspect a worktree, dispatch an executor, or stay blocked.
Recovery Notes
- If config sources are unavailable, report only the discovered surfaces and mark the missing hosts not_observed.
- If cleanup, host load, connector execution, or session progress is requested, route to the owning workflow instead of folding it into inventory.
Workflow Lane
- Current lane: Automation and status (
achievements, workspace-audit, production-audit, automation-blueprint, github-event-ops, github-issue-intake, buzz, agent-board, +35 more) - schedules, status, health, and ops review.
- If intent belongs to another lane, hand back to
oh-my-hermes or name the adjacent workflow.
- Shared product, routing, compatibility, and evidence rules:
omh-routing/references/skill-common-rail.md.
Use When
Use when operators need a cross-harness/session/MCP/worktree inventory and drift summary before claiming any host loaded, connector ran, or agent session progressed.
Strong routing signals: `harness-session-inventory`, `harness session inventory`, `session inventory`, `session adapter`, `session adapters`, `harness sessions`, `mcp inventory`, `mcp config inventory`, `mcp drift`, `harness drift`, `connector drift`, `worktree inventory`, `worktree lifecycle`, `operator inventory`, `control pane inventory`, `codex session inventory`, `claude code session inventory`, `find previous coding session`, `recover coding session`, `previous codex coding session`, `coding session recall`, `세션 인벤토리`, `지난 코딩 세션`, `코딩 세션 복구`, `세션 기억 복구`, `하네스 세션`, `하네스 드리프트`, `MCP 인벤토리`, `MCP 설정 드리프트`, `워크트리 인벤토리`, `커넥터 드리프트`
Catalog Metadata
Category: observability
Phase: harness-session-inventory
Hermes role: tracker
Quality tier: workflow-surface-gated
Reasoning demand: standard
Quality bar:
- Name the user-facing workflow objective, required context, next action, and stop condition.
- Separate prepared guidance from observed platform, runtime, connector, file, memory, or delivery evidence.
- Expose missing tools, credentials, targets, or observations as user-visible gaps.
Handoff policy:
Keep this as Hermes-facing orchestration guidance first. Prepare executor, connector, gateway, or host-runtime handoff only when the user accepts that next step and observed evidence can be recorded.
Required inputs:
- user request
- target context
- delivery or status expectation
- known missing evidence
Expected outputs:
- harness_session_inventory/v1 card or guidance
- harness_session_adapter_matrix/v1
- mcp_inventory_drift_report/v1
- worktree_lifecycle_snapshot/v1
- session_progress_slots/v1
- next action
- prepared-vs-observed boundary
Artifact expectations:
- harness_session_inventory/v1 metadata-only runtime or wrapper card when recorded
- harness_session_adapter_matrix/v1 with observed, prepared, missing, and stale adapters
- mcp_inventory_drift_report/v1 with secret-redacted config/source drift only
- worktree_lifecycle_snapshot/v1 with merge-conflict and cleanup candidates when observed
Safety rules:
- A harness session inventory is not host load, MCP tool-call, connector availability, executor dispatch, worktree cleanup, merge-conflict resolution, or session progress evidence.
- Do not claim connector, gateway, runtime, file generation, memory mutation, or host automation evidence from prepared guidance.
Runtime Evidence
Preferred harness for this skill: harness-session-inventory.
omh runtime record --skill harness-session-inventory --harness harness-session-inventory --status started
Record observed delegation results; otherwise return not_available or not_observed.
Prepared OMH routing is not execution, review, CI, merge-readiness, or merge evidence.
- Treat wrapper memory/context summaries as advisory local context, not proof of opaque Hermes memory reads or changes.
Preserve workflow intent and stop conditions; verify before claiming completion.
Use Hermes-native subagent/delegation features when available: native subagents -> Hermes delegation when available, otherwise sequential lanes.
Shared product, compatibility, topology, memory, harness, and execution rules: omh-routing/references/skill-common-rail.md. Load it when applicable; otherwise name an unavailable capability.
