Teknium a911bcda18 docs: stop recommending pip install; curl installer is the only supported path (#51743)
* docs: stop recommending pip install hermes-agent; point to install script

The install script is the only supported install path (it provisions a
managed, isolated uv environment). Replace bare `pip install hermes-agent`
primary-install recommendations with the curl install script, and rewrite
optional-extra snippets (`pip install "hermes-agent[X]"`) to the managed-env
form `cd ~/.hermes/hermes-agent && uv pip install -e ".[X]"` that matches the
installer and the English quickstart.

Covers English docs + zh-Hans mirrors, the achievements plugin README, and
realigns the zh-Hans quickstart to the English Desktop-installer-first layout
(dropping its stale "Method A — pip (simplest)" section).

* docs: drop pip as a supported install/update method

Removes the 'pip installs' supported-method sections from updating.md and
cli-commands.md (EN + zh-Hans): the curl install script is the only supported
way to install/update the Hermes CLI. The _cmd_update_pip pip/pipx branches
remain in code as an undocumented safety net for users who already have such an
install, but the docs no longer advertise pip as a path.

Also normalizes a bare `pip install -e '.[acp]'` to the managed-env form.

Leaves python-library.md untouched: importing AIAgent as a library dependency
into your own project is a distinct use case where pip is correct.

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
