Hermes Agent
You've heard of OpenClaw. Hermes Agent is what comes next — a Nous Research framework that writes its own skills, remembers across sessions, and connects to Discord in minutes. This 5-lesson course gets you from install to multi-agent orchestration in under an hour. No prior agent experience required.

Hermes vs. OpenClaw — picking the right framework
Why the closed learning loop changes what's possible, and when each framework is the right call.
Install Hermes and turn on the learning loop
pip install, hermes init, and the config.toml flags that actually matter — the #1 gotcha new users hit.
Wire it up to Discord for an always-on agent
Create a bot, set the token, flip discord = true — and send your first message round-trip.
Multi-agent orchestration with sub-agents
When sub-agents help, namespace isolation, and a research → critique → write pipeline you can reuse.
The three-layer memory system, made inspectable
Working, episodic, and user-model layers. Swapping backends, hermes memory inspect, and max_skills pruning.
