every prompt I post in the Hermes Autopilot series, and every command I put in a Wingtip, gets run first on a copy of my agent, not on the agent I use all day.
the copy is one command: `hermes profile create test --clone`.
it takes the config, the keys, the SOUL.md, the skills and the two memory files from my main profile and nothing else.
then `hermes -p test` in front of any command runs it on the copy. a prompt that rewrites the config, a skill I am not sure about, a setting I want to see the effect of: all of it lands there.
and when the copy gets messy, `hermes profile delete test` and make a new one.
my real agent has not changed once this week, and everything I published was tested.
