    awesome-hermes-agent

    5.9K0xNyk/awesome-hermes-agent

    hermes-agent-self-evolution

    5.5KNousResearch/hermes-agent-self-evolution · Python

    It is an evolutionary self-improvement system for Hermes Agent that uses DSPy and GEPA (Genetic-Pareto Prompt Evolution) to automatically optimize the agent's skills, tool descriptions, system prompts, and code, producing measurably better versions through reflective evolutionary search.

  3. 6

    botmaker

    287techjanitor/botmaker · Python

    Botmaker is a skill plus SOUL profile for Hermes Agent whose only job is to mint other specialist bots. It enforces a strict loop — interview, a one-screen SOUL draft, human sign-off, scaffolding, certification in the child's own chat, and documentation in a vault — instead of just cloning a persona file.

  4. 7

    toolrush

    157OnlyTerp/toolrush · Python

    ToolRush is a low-overhead execution layer plugin for Hermes Agent (Nous Research's agent harness) that eliminates the latency overhead of tool calls like file reads, searches, and terminal commands while keeping the same tools, outputs, and safety gates.
