What Is Hermes Agent?

Hermes Agent is an open-source autonomous AI agent by Nous Research — the lab behind the Hermes, Nomos, and Psyche model families. Released in February 2026, Hermes is the fastest-growing agent framework of the year, crossing 95K GitHub stars in under 3 months.

Unlike coding copilots tethered to an IDE, Hermes lives on your own server. It remembers what it learns, creates its own skills from experience, and connects to 19+ messaging platforms (Slack, Discord, Telegram, Teams, WeChat, Feishu, and more), 33+ inference providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Ollama, local models), and ships 40+ built-in tools (web search, browser automation, file operations, code execution). Version v0.12.0 "The Curator" (April 30, 2026) introduced self-maintaining agent architecture — Hermes now manages its own knowledge, curates memories, and autonomously evolves its capabilities.
