Teknium 517f30b043 improve(agent): guidance for plain-text URLs, subagent language/verification, hermes-config routing (#16325) ...

Four small tool-description / skill-content tweaks addressing recurring
model mistakes seen in @versun's docx feedback (Kimi 2.6, but the patterns
apply to every model):

1. browser_navigate description: call out .md/.txt/.json/.yaml/.csv/.xml,
   raw.githubusercontent.com, and API endpoints as specifically preferring
   curl or web_extract. The generic "prefer web_search or web_extract" was
   too weak; models kept firing up the browser for plain-text URLs.

2. delegate_task description: two additions.
   (a) Pass user language / output-style preferences in 'context' when they
   differ from English — otherwise subagents default to English and their
   summaries contaminate the final reply (caused the bilingual digest bug).
   (b) Subagent summaries are self-reports, not verified facts. For
   operations with external side-effects (HTTP uploads, remote writes,
   file creation at shared paths), require a verifiable handle (URL, ID,
   path) and verify it yourself before claiming success.

3. agent/prompt_builder.py Skills-mandatory block: new explicit line
   "Whenever the user asks to configure / set up / modify / install /
   enable / disable / troubleshoot Hermes Agent itself, load the
   `hermes-agent` skill first." The generic "load what's relevant" didn't
   route Hermes-meta questions (like "how do I turn off redaction?") to
   the one skill that has the answer.

4. skills/autonomous-ai-agents/hermes-agent/SKILL.md: new "Security &
   Privacy Toggles" section covering security.redact_secrets (with the
   import-time-snapshot restart-required caveat), privacy.redact_pii,
   approvals.mode (manual/smart/off) + --yolo + HERMES_YOLO_MODE, shell
   hooks allowlist, and how to disable network/media tools entirely.
   Every command verified against the actual config keys — no invented
   knobs.
