A council of AI agents based on the seven Hermetic principles.
An independent educational interface that translates the seven principles of The Kybalion (1908) into practical reflection agents for thought, planning, and creative work. Read the codex. Consult the council. Export each principle as a portable skill.
Independent educational project. Not affiliated with Nous Research, the Hermes Agent project, or the Hermès fashion house.
The Kybalion, published in 1908 and attributed to "Three Initiates," is a New Thought distillation of older Hermetic motifs. It does not claim to transmit the full Corpus Hermeticum, nor does it pretend to historical certainty. It offers, instead, seven compact axioms useful as lenses for thinking.
This application treats the work strictly as an educational philosophical framework. It is not historical proof. It is not medical, legal, or spiritual authority. The agents below are structured prompts — mirrors for reflection, not oracles.
Each principle becomes an agent. Each agent becomes a portable skill you can export, copy, or run against an OpenAI-compatible backend.
Seven agents, one for each principle. Each is a structured lens — a prompt template you may consult, copy, or export.
“The All is Mind; the Universe is Mental.”
Intention design, thought reframing, mental clarity, and patient self-inquiry.
“As above, so below; as below, so above.”
Pattern recognition between inner life, project systems, relationships, and culture.
“Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.”
Tone, energy, mood, frequency, communication style, and brand voice.
“Everything is dual; everything has poles.”
Paradox resolution, reframing, conflict transformation, finding gradients.
“Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides.”
Routines, cycles, content calendars, emotional rhythm, rest/work planning.
“Every cause has its effect; every effect has its cause.”
Decision trees, accountability, systems thinking, consequence mapping.
“Gender manifests on all planes.”
Symbolic creative generation, synthesis, inner/outer balance, idea incubation.
Choose an agent. Pose your inquiry. Responses come from the configured backend, or from the local Offline Codex when none is set.
Fourteen short questions. Answer 1 (rarely true) to 5 (consistently true). Your weakest principle becomes your suggested counsel.
One principle a day. A small lens for the next twenty-four hours.
“Every cause has its effect; every effect has its cause.”
What would change if you trusted this principle for one day?
Concise, original summaries of the central themes. No copyrighted edition text reproduced. Read these as study notes, not scripture.
A compact map: Mentalism, Correspondence, Vibration, Polarity, Rhythm, Cause and Effect, and Gender. Treated here as seven lenses for thinking — not as physics, theology, or therapy. Each principle is paired with an agent that turns it into a working prompt.
Use the Council as a rotating set of perspectives on the same question. The same problem looks different through Mentalism than through Rhythm.
Each agent is exportable as a portable Markdown skill, compatible with OpenAI-style agent runtimes such as Hermes Agent.
The bundle ZIP contains skills/hermetic-*-skill.md for all seven principles, a machine-readable project.json, and a README manifest with generation date and disclosures.
