# Hermes Agent

[Hermes Agent](https://github.com/nousresearch/hermes-agent) is **the self-improving AI agent built by** [**Nous Research**](https://nousresearch.com/)**.** It's the only agent with a built-in learning loop — it creates skills from experience, improves them during use, nudges itself to persist knowledge, searches its own past conversations, and builds a deepening model of who you are across sessions. Run it on a $5 VPS, a GPU cluster, or serverless infrastructure that costs nearly nothing when idle. It's not tied to your laptop — talk to it from Telegram while it works on a cloud VM.

### **Account & API Keys Setup**
