HivemindOS manual
Third-Party Packaged Skills
Third-party packaged skills come from outside HivemindOS, and optional skills are ones you choose to install. HivemindOS reviews each one before adding it to the catalog.
Only a few foundational packs install automatically. Everything else stays in the optional catalog until you install it from the skill browser.
How optional skills are handled
- Each skill is pinned to a specific upstream version and checked for changes.
- Installing copies audited local files into your shared brain. It never runs an upstream installer or starts a service.
- Capability search can suggest optional skills, but they only become active after you install them.
- Skills under a
hivemindos/folder are written by HivemindOS. Some were inspired by public catalogs, but unlicensed upstream text and scripts are not copied. - Skills that post, spend, send messages, or change accounts ask for your approval first.
Installed automatically
The Obsidian Native Brain Pack and the HyperFrames suite install with setup so agents can write Obsidian-native notes and make videos right away.
| Skill | Source | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
obsidian-markdown |
kepano/obsidian-skills |
Obsidian-flavored Markdown: wikilinks, embeds, callouts, properties, tags, math, Mermaid, footnotes. |
obsidian-bases |
kepano/obsidian-skills |
Native .base views over vault notes. |
json-canvas |
kepano/obsidian-skills |
Obsidian .canvas maps, boards, and flowcharts. |
defuddle |
kepano/obsidian-skills |
Clean Markdown from web pages, when the Defuddle CLI is installed. |
notebooklm |
teng-lin/notebooklm-py |
Safe use of the optional NotebookLM integration, with confirmation before destructive or outward actions. Turn on the integration itself in Integrations. |
HyperFrames suite (hyperframes + 18 sibling skills) |
heygen-com/hyperframes |
HTML-based video production. When you ask for a video without saying how, you choose Cloud AI, Local AI, or HTML (HyperFrames). Every referenced workflow is already bundled at one pinned, audited version. |
HivemindOS doesn’t install the upstream obsidian-cli skill because the app already has its own Obsidian vault rules.
HivemindOS Engineering Discipline pack
This optional pack combines the built-in engineering-discipline skill with 12 methods from obra/superpowers (MIT, pinned to v6.1.1). It covers brainstorming, planning, test-driven development, debugging, code review, and verification before completion.
Upstream “always do this” rules apply only when that method was chosen for the task. They never grant permission to commit, push, merge, delete, deploy, or start other agents.
