feat(dashboard): full-featured profile builder (model + skills + MCPs)#39084
Merged
Conversation
…l + MCPs + skills) Backend foundation for the dashboard profile builder. Extends POST /api/profiles to accept, in one call, everything a profile needs beyond name/clone: - mcp_servers[] -> written into the new profile's config.yaml - keep_skills[] -> replace-semantics: disable every seeded skill not kept - hub_skills[] -> async install via 'hermes -p <name> skills install <id>' All applied best-effort AFTER the profile dir exists, so a hiccup in any one never 500s the create. Model/MCP/keep-skills writes are profile-scoped via the HERMES_HOME context override (same mechanism as the existing _write_profile_model). Hub installs go through a subprocess scoped with -p because skills_hub.SKILLS_DIR is import-time-bound and the runtime override can't redirect it. Adds two helpers (_write_profile_mcp_servers, _disable_unselected_skills) and a TestClient test asserting all four paths land in the NEW profile's config and the hub spawn is scoped to it. Design doc at docs/design/profile-builder.md.
Adds a dedicated /profiles/new builder that composes everything a profile
needs into one stepped create flow, reusing the existing Models/Skills/MCP
data paths instead of duplicating them:
- Identity name + description
- Model provider+model picker (api.getModelOptions)
- Skills keep-which-built-in/optional (replace semantics, default = full
bundle) + skills-hub search/add (api.getSkills, searchSkillsHub)
- MCPs add HTTP/stdio servers inline
- Review blueprint -> single POST /api/profiles create
Nothing writes until Create; the one call commits model+MCPs+skill selection
and spawns hub-skill installs (reported in the success toast). ProfilesPage
header gets a 'Build' button (full builder) alongside 'Create' (quick modal).
Route is page-only (not in the sidebar nav). Verified with vite build (2258
modules, green).

Summary
Profiles can now be created in the dashboard with full control over Model+Provider, Skills (built-in/optional + skills-hub), MCP servers, Name, and Description — in one stepped builder, instead of the thin name+clone+model create modal.
This replaces the CLI
hermes profile wizardapproach (PR #31781): a profile is a full HERMES_HOME dir, and the dashboard already owns mature Models/Skills/MCP pages, so the builder composes those existing data paths rather than reinventing them.Changes
hermes_cli/web_server.py:POST /api/profilesacceptsmcp_servers[],keep_skills[],hub_skills[](all optional, all best-effort post-create so a hiccup never 500s the create).
