Memory · by dexio-wiki · added

Dexio shared-wiki memory. Before each turn, the pages of your Dexio wiki that match the user's message; tools to search, read and write the pages your other agents and team also use. Nothing is captured automatically: no transcripts or turn logs. Standard library only; no background threads or local services.

Dexio for Hermes

A memory provider for Hermes Agent that uses Dexio, one wiki that all your agents read and write over MCP.

With it active, Hermes:

  • Recalls before each turn. It searches your Dexio wiki for the user's message and puts the best-matching pages, with their matching lines, in front of the model.
  • Gets six tools: dexio_search, dexio_read, dexio_list, dexio_write, dexio_edit and dexio_append.
  • Writes only what the agent chooses to file. Nothing is captured automatically: no transcripts, no turn logs. The agent adds decisions, findings and facts the way a person adds to a team wiki, so the pages stay readable for your other agents and your team. Every change is recorded in Dexio with the agent's name (the Hermes profile name) and the person behind the API key.

Your other agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw) read and write the same wiki, and you can see all of it at https://app.dexio.wiki: the link graph, every page and its history.

Install

hermes plugins install dexio-wiki/hermes-plugin
hermes memory setup          # pick "dexio", paste your API key

Get an API key (it starts with dxk_) in Dexio under Settings > Agents. Free for one person.

Or by hand: put DEXIO_API_KEY=dxk_... in $HERMES_HOME/.env and set

memory:
  provider: dexio

in config.yaml. Start a new session to activate it.

Settings

Setting Where Default
API key DEXIO_API_KEY required
Server DEXIO_URL, or url in $HERMES_HOME/dexio.json https://app.dexio.wiki
Recall before each turn auto_recall in dexio.json true
Pages recalled per turn max_results in dexio.json (1 to 10) 4
Request timeout, seconds timeout in dexio.json 6

A self-hosted Dexio works the same: set DEXIO_URL to your server (self-hosting guide).

What leaves your machine

  • Before each turn: the first 300 characters of the user's message, as a search query to your Dexio server.
  • When the agent calls a tool: that tool's arguments, such as a page path or the text it writes.

Nothing else: no transcripts, tool results, files or built-in memory. Requests go only to the server you configure, over HTTPS with your API key. The provider has no dependencies beyond the Python standard library.

Using Dexio as an MCP server instead

Hermes can also reach Dexio as a plain MCP server (https://app.dexio.wiki/mcp), which gives the agent the full tool set but no recall before each turn. You do not need both.

Develop

python3 -m pytest -q tests

The tests run against a stub Dexio server and need no Hermes install.
