Hermes agent is a self improving AI agent. And it makes it easy for you to manage your projects, code, everyday automations, skills.
It works better under Mac and Linux. But recently they started rolling out the setup for Windows too. So both command line and desktop app are now available.
Why would you use WSL? Simple, to keep your Hermes agent experiments sandboxed into the WSL based instance of Linux. It makes breaking things, improving your workflow, testing things lot easier.
I have created a walkthrough on how to setup Hermes Agent on WSL. That too with Ubuntu Linux setup.
How to get started?
Simple. run the following query and begin the installation setup.
curl -fsSL https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/install.sh | bash
On terminal it takes a bit of time. Going through series on setup requirements. One component after another it would install the Hermes agent.
Then it would take you through the series of questions like setting up LLM provider, adding API keys, integrating the external apps and services.
At the end when all the configurations work out. You would find the Hermes Agent showing the screen something like this with installed skills, tools, plugins.
Which LLM to use? You can try out Ollama, openrouter and mostly the freeones out there. I am sure the future update would let you use any inference service with API base URL to configure.
Initially go with the setup then expand your habits on it and it would learn and adapt as per you.
