The self-improving AI agent built by Nous Research.
Hermes Agent is an autonomous AI agent with a built-in learning loop. It creates skills from experience, improves them during use, searches its own past conversations for context, and builds a deepening model of who you are across sessions. It runs on a $5 VPS, a GPU cluster, or serverless infrastructure -- not tied to your laptop.
Current version: v0.10.0 (v2026.4.16) -- released April 16, 2026.
