Three members concern dependency installation and resolution: one changes where KittenTTS is installed from, one pins an override so uv lock keeps spaCy 3.x, and one reports \`hermes pm update --uv\` failing to build spaCy 2.0.17 on Python 3.14. The spaCy items look related, while the KittenTTS item appears to be a separate packaging change.

## How this cluster was grouped

- Link evidence (`STRUCTURAL_SPANNING`): every member is connected by structural evidence: shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference.
- Pairwise link density `0.67`: the share of member pairs that carry a link, counting a structural link in full and a relevance-only link at 0.36. `1.00` means every pair is linked.
