What developers should know

01

Memory and repeatable skills

Hermes documents persistent cross-session memory and on-demand skills, including agent-created skills that can be improved and reused.[1] [2]

02

Automation and deployment

The runtime supports cron jobs, isolated subagents, MCP, browser and terminal tools, messaging gateways, and local or remote terminal backends. Toolsets can be explicitly disabled during setup.[1] [2]
