## What is Hermes Agent?
Hermes Agent is the self-improving AI agent from Nous Research. It writes skills from experience and keeps improving them as it works, remembers what matters across sessions, and runs where you are: the terminal, the Hermes Desktop app, Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal and more, all through one gateway. You can bring any model (Nous Portal, OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, your own endpoint) and run it on a laptop, a $5 VPS or serverless infrastructure.

## A lean core, with plugins at the edges
The Hermes core keeps the parts every user needs: the agent loop, memory, skills, the gateway, model routing and the tool runtime. Everything specific to one product, one vendor or one hobby belongs in a **plugin**, which you install when you want it and which ships on its own schedule.
That gives you:
- **Smaller, faster installs.** You don't download a Spotify client to run a coding agent.
- **Fixes without waiting for a release.** A plugin ships a fix as soon as it's reviewed. It doesn't wait for the next Hermes version.
- **A clear owner for each integration.** Vendor plugins live with the vendors who build them, community plugins with their authors, and Nous's own plugins live here.
## The plugin catalog
The **Hermes plugin catalog** is the reviewed index of everything you can install: model providers, memory providers, messaging platforms, Desktop extensions, voice, web and automation tools. It has hundreds of entries from Nous, vendors and the community. Each entry is **pinned to a reviewed commit**, so what you install is exactly what was reviewed, and an update moves you only when a new pin passes review.

Hermes Desktop has the same catalog under **Capabilities → Plugins**.
Catalog entries come in two tiers:
| Tier | Who maintains it | Where it lives |
|---|---|---|
| **official** | Nous Research | **This repo**, one directory per plugin |
| **community** | Vendors and independent authors | Their own repos, reviewed when they enter the catalog |
