Hermes trading agent stuck for two days: users report broken sessions

witcheer · x · 2026-09-12

User jbrukh reports the Hermes agent is completely broken: it has spent nearly two days trying to place a single trading order, getting lost in "LLM dementia," with sessions ending abruptly and never finishing. Teknium jumped in to help, diagnosing a 60s approval-gate timeout and a broken Honcho memory backend as the culprits.
