Hyperspace Matrix — AI Capability Search
Search 100k+ indexed AI skills, tools, agents, and apps by task description.
Binary: hyperspace (installed at ~/.local/bin/hyperspace)
Script: ~/.hermes/skills/research/hyperspace-matrix/scripts/matrix-search.sh
When to Use
- Looking for an AI tool/skill for a specific task
- Discovering capabilities you didn't know existed
- Finding alternatives to current tools
- Exploring what's available in the AI ecosystem
Search
# Via script
bash ~/.hermes/skills/research/hyperspace-matrix/scripts/matrix-search.sh "your task description" [--limit 10] [--json]
# Via CLI
hyperspace search query "generate images from text" --json
hyperspace search query "browser automation for agents" --limit 5
How It Works
- Hybrid search: ColBERT + BM25 + Reciprocal Rank Fusion
- Searches across 8 domains of AI capabilities
- Returns ranked results with descriptions and links
⚠️ Caution
- Results are often very generic — always adjust to your specific context
- Think of it as discovery/inspiration, not ready-to-use solutions
- Verify any suggested tool actually exists and works before adopting
Tips
- Use natural language task descriptions, not keywords
- Be specific: "transcribe audio to text locally" > "audio"
- Results include skill names, descriptions, and install methods
- Use
--jsonfor programmatic processing
Pitfalls
- Searches an external index — requires internet
- Results may include OpenClaw-specific skills not usable in Hermes
- Use as discovery tool, then evaluate portability manually
Verification
# Confirm binary is on PATH
which hyperspace
# Run a simple search and expect ranked results
hyperspace search query "text to speech" --limit 3
# Test the wrapper script
bash ~/.hermes/skills/research/hyperspace-matrix/scripts/matrix-search.sh "image generation" --limit 3
