Hi everyone!
Hermes Agent is built for developers who want full control over their agentic infrastructure, running as a persistent background process right on your own hardware.
The agent lives in the CLI but can talk directly to messaging apps for easy access. Drop a query, and isolated subagents spin up in Docker or SSH sandboxes to do the heavy lifting before reporting back.
The procedural memory is where things get really interesting. Going way beyond just writing Python scripts to collapse pipelines, surviving a messy workflow actually generates a permanent markdown skill document saved straight to local. The system builds and expands a custom toolkit the longer the background process stays alive.
You are never locked into a specific model either. You can plug in an @OpenRouter key, point it to your local VLLM endpoint, or just use the Nous Portal. First 750 sign-ups can grab a free month with the code HERMESAGENT.
