Build a 24/7 personal AI assistant on a VPS
This tutorial shows how to turn Hermes Agent into a persistent assistant that keeps running even when your laptop is off. The workflow connects the agent to models such as GPT-5.6 and deploys it on a cloud VPS.
Key capabilities covered include:
- always-on AI automation
- scheduled CRON jobs
- real-time research tasks
- a setup that can keep learning your projects and act across messaging accounts
The post is aimed at people who want a practical agent stack rather than a local-only chatbot.
