Why Self-Host Hermes?

An agent that lives on your server, remembers everything, and gets smarter every day. 184k stars on GitHub. MIT license.

Persistent Cross-Session Memory

Hermes remembers your preferences, projects, and environment across every session. The longer it runs, the better it knows you — no re-explaining context.

Automated Skill Creation

When Hermes solves a hard problem, it writes a reusable skill document so it never forgets how. Skills are searchable, shareable, and follow the agentskills.io standard.

Multi-Platform Gateway

Connect Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, and Signal — all from a single gateway process. Start a conversation on Telegram, pick it up in your terminal.

Scheduled Automations (Cron)

Built-in cron scheduler with delivery to any platform. Set up daily reports, nightly backups, weekly audits — all running unattended on your VPS.

Parallel Sub-Agents

Spawn isolated sub-agents for parallel workstreams. Each gets its own conversation and terminal. Additional agents consume model usage and server resources.

Self-hosted instance control

Keep the agent instance and its local state on your VPS. External models, memory services and messaging integrations may receive data; review your providers, permissions and retention settings.

Install in One Command

What self-hosting puts in your control

You manage the Hermes Agent instance, updates, access permissions and backups. These VPS plans are unmanaged. Protect the application behind authentication and HTTPS, restrict admin access, and test recovery before relying on it for production work.

Data flows & ongoing costs

Self-hosting does not keep every request on your server. Model APIs, messaging platforms and connected services can receive the data your workflows send them, under their own policies. VPS pricing excludes third-party API charges, subscriptions and any additional software licenses. Size the server for your workload and monitor resource use.
