A free, open-source personal AI agent that learns your projects and works across every messaging app.
Hermes keeps conversations, memories, and skills between sessions, and turns solutions it has already found into reusable capabilities you can call again.
Connect Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, email, and the CLI to a single agent with one shared memory, so context follows you across platforms.
Describe recurring reports, backups, or daily briefings in plain language and let them run unattended through the gateway.
Spawn isolated subagents with their own conversations, terminals, and Python RPC scripts to run zero-context-cost pipelines in parallel.
Run many coding agents in parallel, each in its own worktree
Each agent gets its own isolated Git worktree, so multiple agents can edit, test and build concurrently without conflicts.
Works with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor CLI, OpenCode, Copilot, Cline and many other command-line agents using subscriptions you already have.
A built-in browser lets you click any element to copy its HTML, styles and selector, or screenshot a page and drop that context straight into an agent prompt.
Review AI output, run commands and arrange terminals, browsers, files and diffs in panes shaped to the task at hand.
