A curated list of skills, tools, integrations, and resources for enhancing your Hermes Agent workflow — the self-improving AI agent built by Nous Research.
Hermes Agent is the only agent with a built-in learning loop — it creates skills from experience, improves them during use, searches its own past conversations, and builds a deepening model of who you are across sessions. Run it on a $5 VPS, a GPU cluster, or serverless infrastructure. Talk to it from Telegram while it works on a cloud VM.
This list tracks the growing ecosystem around it.
New to Hermes? Don't try to install everything at once. Here's the three-step path from zero to productive:
- Get running — Follow the Official Docs quickstart. It covers installation, CLI, configuration, and your first conversation.
- Add your first skills — Install wondelai/skills (250+ stars, actively maintained) — a cross-platform skills library that works with Hermes and other agents. Or try litprog-skill (60+ stars) for literate programming across Claude Code, OpenCode, and Hermes.
- Get a GUI — Set up hermes-workspace (200+ stars) for a Hermes-native workspace with chat, terminal, and skills manager. Or use mission-control (3k+ stars) for a broader agent orchestration dashboard with fleet management, task dispatch, and cost tracking.
Once you're comfortable, explore the full list below. Every resource is tagged with a maturity level so you know what you're getting into:
| Tag | What it means |
|---|---|
| production | Stable, documented, actively maintained — safe to build on |
| beta | Works but still evolving — expect some rough edges |
| experimental | Proof of concept or early-stage — learn from it, don't depend on it |
