- Self-improvement without self-delusion — Pair hermes-agent-self-evolution with scheduled regression checks, lintlang for prompt/config linting, and a second evaluation pass that blocks bad prompt mutations. The trick is not “evolve faster”; it’s “evolve without quietly getting weird.”

Short excerpt only, so you can decide whether to click out.

Evolutionary self-improvement for Hermes Agent.

Hermes Agent Self-Evolution uses DSPy + GEPA (Genetic-Pareto Prompt Evolution) to automatically evolve and optimize Hermes Agent's skills, tool descriptions, system prompts, and code — producing measurably better versions through reflective evolutionary search.

No GPU training required. Everything operates via API calls — mutating text, evaluating results, and selecting the best variants. ~$2-10 per optimization run.

🧬 Hermes Agent Self-EvolutionHow It WorksQuick StartInstallPoint at your hermes-agent repoEvolve a skill (synthetic eval data)Or use real session history from Claude Code, Copilot, and HermesWhat It Optimizes
  • Full test suite — pytest tests/ -q must pass 100%
  • Size limits — Skills ≤15KB, tool descriptions ≤500 chars
  • Caching compatibility — No mid-conversation changes
  • Semantic preservation — Must not drift from original purpose
  • PR review — All changes go through human review, never direct commit
