Hermes Agent

The self-improving agent from Nous Research. Built-in learning loop: it creates skills from experience, improves them during use, and remembers across sessions. Runs local, Docker, SSH, or serverless (Daytona, Modal), and talks through 20+ messaging platforms.

How skills install

Five verified rails (Hermes skills docs, 2026-06-06). Skills Hub: `hermes skills install clawhub/<skill>` — Solid State originals publish to ClawHub, an integrated Hermes source. Well-known: `hermes skills install well-known:https://solidstate.cc/.well-known/skills/<name>` serves our first-party catalog directly. Direct URL: `hermes skills install https://solidstate.cc/.well-known/skills/<name>/SKILL.md`. GitHub tap: `hermes skills tap add solidstatecc/skills`. Or drop a folder into ~/.hermes/skills/ — one folder, one SKILL.md. Hub installs run Hermes' security scan; community-source warnings are normal.
