Hermes Agent is an autonomous AI agent from Nous Research designed to live on your own server instead of being tied to one app, IDE, or single chatbot interface. It can remember what it learns, create skills over time, and work across different communication platforms like Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Email, and CLI. The tool is built for users who want an AI assistant that can handle tasks, automate workflows, use the web, and keep improving the longer it runs.
