Nous Research reintroduces Bot Mode for Hermes Agent
max_paperclips · x · 2026-08-18
Nous Research has reintroduced Bot Mode for Hermes Agent/Desktop. Instead of organizing work around sessions, Bot Mode turns each agent profile into a persistent named Bot.
Each Bot gets its own job, description, profile picture, memory, skills, tools and external connections, can run on any model, and can even communicate with your other bots. The pitch: build a specialist Bot once and use it forever.
