Manual approval for Hermes self-written skills
Operator note on the skill-learning loop: one bad instruction can ride into every later task that loads that skill. Gate it with `/skills approval on`, then `/skills pending`, `/skills diff <id>`, `/skills approve <id>`, `/skills reject <id>`. The gate covers skill writes including background learning.
Why it matters
Self-improving skills are the Hermes feature people turn on first and audit last. This is the concrete control, not a philosophy post.
