How to Connect Hermes Agent to mem9 AI Memory

Hermes agent is pretty much open towards the memory providers and it has plenty of them listed already. I also recently covered Hermes agent and Mem0 AI Memory post.

Now I recently integrated my Hermes agent with Mem9, which is another service which supports Openclaw and Hermes agent. It's free within limits, open source and have cloud instance too.

You can check out my video for managing the Mem9 AI memory and integrating it with the Hermes Agent.

How to get started?

First go to official website of mem9. You have two options either download it as an instance or login with gmail and github and get into the dashboard.

If you choose cloud route you would have to create an API key. And that API is what you are going to share with the Hermes agent. This would be one off operation and you'd get done. Save .env file with that API key.

You can also ask the Hermes agent to pick the API key and read from mem9 docs to set the Mem9 as the memory provider.

You would require to check the command hermes tools. From there you would be able to access the memory providers. Once you set that up make sure to also command hermes agent on what to take it to the memory.

For example,

Save my frontend design choices, personal life (safe events) are stored in the memory for you to access later. Do not store it locally. Store it in attached cloud provider for AI memory.

Make sure to also get rid of memories which are not safe to share. Because at the end you don't the providers of agents and memory use that against you as a customer.

That being said, mem9 is worth exploring and saving your memories.
