What is Hermes Agent? Memory, tools, Geek Hub
Hermes Agent (Nous Research) is a persistent agent: memory across sessions, reusable skills, and a broad tool set (search, browser, vision, subagents). These apps burn tokens—exactly where a clear-cost gateway helps.
What is Hermes?
More than autocomplete, Hermes targets agents that live over time: remember context, schedule work, and delegate to subagents.
Key features
- Cross-session memory
- Reusable skills
- Tools: web, browser, vision, automations
- Subagents for parallel work
Hermes + Geek Hub
Long-running agents burn tokens. Geek Hub centralizes keys, shows cost per run, and lets you drop to cheaper models for subtasks.
- Point the agent runtime at an OpenAI-compatible base URL
- Use cheap models for classify/routing and stronger ones for final plans
- Watch usage.cost_* or the dashboard
Hermes Agent FAQ
- Same as a coding IDE?
- No—Hermes is a general/persistent agent; Cursor/Windsurf are IDEs. They can coexist.
