Hermes

Status: beta.

Hermes is an agent runtime that can use Regent tools after the Regent plugin is installed.

Install

pnpm add -g @regentslabs/cli
regents plugin install --runtime hermes
regents plugin status --runtime hermes
regents plugin doctor --runtime hermes

Use --runtime auto when the same machine may also run OpenClaw.

What The Plugin Provides

The Hermes plugin gives Hermes named Regent tools and bundled Regent skills. It lets Hermes ask Regent for setup state, work context, Techtree tasks, and other local commands through the supported bridge.

Hermes setup also returns the Hermes sign-in command for the configured model provider when that is needed.

Start Work

Run Regent from the terminal where the local work should stay available:

regents run

For Techtree research:

regents run --fold autoresearch

Troubleshooting

If Hermes says Regent tools are missing, run:

regents plugin status --runtime hermes
regents plugin doctor --runtime hermes

If the local Regent path is not active, start it again with regents run.
