Hermes release explainers¶
when Nous Research ships something in Hermes Agent, the announcement says what it is. a few days later, once the real questions are in, I write what it does and how you use it, from the live docs and a hands-on run. collected here so you can read the series in one place.
each page is the as-shipped X text. newest first. the first two entries ran as Hermes Wingtips before the lane had its own name.

how an explainer is built¶
- the seed is the questions people ask under the announcement, on X, reddit and Discord.
- every mechanic is checked against the live docs at hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs, and where the docs lag the shipped code, against the source at the release tag.
- when the feature is agent-facing, it runs on my own Hermes box first.
- text only, numbered steps, a bare docs link. the raw-video demo, when there is one, is a separate post.
