Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent is an open-source, self-improving autonomous AI agent built by Nous Research that runs as a persistent daemon on your own infrastructure. It features a built-in learning loop that creates reusable skills from experience, maintains persistent memory across sessions, and builds a deepening model of the user over time. It connects to 15+ messaging platforms (Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, etc.) from a single gateway and supports any LLM provider including OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, and local models. Beyond task automation, it also serves as a research platform for generating training trajectories and running reinforcement learning experiments.
