Integrations

Hermes Agent connects to external systems for AI inference, tool servers, IDE workflows, programmatic access, and more. These integrations extend what Hermes can do and where it can run.

Available Integrations​

  • AI Providers — Set up and configure inference providers. Hermes works with OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Use hermes model to configure interactively.

  • MCP Servers — Connect Hermes to external tool servers via Model Context Protocol. Access tools from GitHub, databases, file systems, browser stacks, internal APIs, and more without writing native Hermes tools.

  • IDE Integration (ACP) — Use Hermes Agent inside ACP-compatible editors such as VS Code, Zed, and JetBrains. Hermes runs as an ACP server, rendering chat messages, tool activity, file diffs, and terminal commands inside your editor.

  • API Server — Expose Hermes as an OpenAI-compatible HTTP endpoint. Any frontend that speaks the OpenAI format — Open WebUI, LobeChat, LibreChat, NextChat, ChatBox — can connect and use Hermes as a backend with its full toolset.

  • Honcho Memory — AI-native persistent memory for cross-session user modeling and personalization. Honcho adds deep user modeling via dialectic reasoning on top of Hermes's built-in memory system.

  • Provider Routing — Fine-grained control over which underlying AI providers handle your OpenRouter requests. Optimize for cost, speed, or quality with sorting, whitelists, blacklists, and explicit priority ordering.

  • Fallback Providers — Automatic failover to backup LLM providers when your primary model encounters errors. Includes primary model fallback and independent auxiliary task fallback for vision, compression, and web extraction.
