Hermes
Agent

Open Source • MIT LicenseAn Agent That
Grows With You.

Not a coding copilot tethered to an IDE or a chatbot wrapper around a single API. An autonomous agent that lives on your server, remembers what it learns, and gets more capable the longer it runs.

Features
Lives Where You Do

Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Email, CLI — and a growing list of platforms. Start on one, pick up on another.

Grows the Longer It Runs

Persistent memory and auto-generated skills — it learns your projects and never forgets how it solved a problem.

Scheduled Automations

Natural language cron scheduling for reports, backups, and briefings — running unattended through the gateway.

Delegates & Parallelizes

Isolated subagents with their own conversations, terminals, and Python RPC scripts for zero-context-cost pipelines.

Real Sandboxing

Five backends — local, Docker, SSH, Singularity, Modal — with container hardening and namespace isolation.

Full Web & Browser Control

Web search, browser automation, vision, image generation, text-to-speech, and multi-model reasoning.
