Problem or Use Case
Currently, as Hermes Agent scales across CLI and messaging platforms (Telegram, Slack, Discord), users need to cross-reference multiple files to find platform-specific command syntax. This improves onboarding for the first 750 new sign-ups.
Proposed Solution
Here is the complete, formatted text for your GitHub Issue. You can copy and paste this directly into the New Issue page on the Hermes Agent repository.
Issue Title: [Feature Request] Integrated Platform Command Reference (Quick Start Table)
Description
Currently, as Hermes Agent scales across CLI and messaging platforms (Telegram, Slack, Discord), users need to cross-reference multiple files or the codebase to find platform-specific command syntax. To improve developer onboarding and bridge the gap between "Claude Code" style CLI and "OpenClaw" style messaging, I propose adding a Quick Start Table to the main README.md.
Proposed Solution
A concise, scannable Markdown table that maps core agentic actions across all supported interfaces.

Alternatives Considered
I considered leaving the documentation as is, but as the project grows with more "Agent-managed skills," a unified command reference is essential for cross-platform consistency.
