Hey everyone,
I recently installed Hermes Agent and connected it to both ChatGPT and Claude, and I also linked the chatbot to Discord just to experiment and understand how everything works.
Very easy to setup and make it work(easier than OC)
At the moment I have several small projects running locally, and they’re all documented inside my self-hosted Gitea instance. The projects are pretty different from each other, both in terms of tech stack and what they actually do.
Now I’m trying to figure out where Hermes really fits into my workflow.
For example, can it realistically help with maintaining older projects, updating scripts, refactoring code, improving documentation, or keeping project wikis updated without constantly making things up or hallucinating context across different repositories?
What I’m also wondering is whether Hermes alone is enough for this kind of workflow, or if it still needs a properly structured knowledge base behind it, like Obsidian or some kind of graph-based documentation setup, similar to what people use in other agent architectures.
I think my main issue is that I still don’t fully understand what Hermes is actually capable of in real-world local/self-hosted environments.
Would love to hear how you’re using it and what has actually worked for you.
best regards
