docs: fix MCP install commands — use uv, not bare pip#1909
Merged
Conversation
The standard install already includes MCP via .[all]. For users who need to add it separately, the correct command is: cd ~/.hermes/hermes-agent && uv pip install -e ".[mcp]" The venv is created by uv, so bare 'pip' isn't available. All four occurrences across 3 docs pages updated.
