Hermes Agent
Self-hosting autonomous agent by Nous Research — persistent memory, multi-platform, open source
About
Hermes Agent is an open-source autonomous agent platform by Nous Research that runs on your own server and gets more capable the longer it runs. Unlike IDE-bound coding assistants, it operates as a persistent, self-improving system: automatically generating reusable skills, storing memory of solved problems across projects, and scheduling recurring tasks in plain English. Agents can be reached through Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Email, or CLI, and complex jobs can be split across parallel isolated subagents. Five execution backends—local, Docker, SSH, Singularity, and Modal—give teams full control over the runtime environment. Released under the MIT licence, it installs with a single curl command and includes a guided configuration wizard. Version 0.12.0 is current.
