Hermes Agent is an AI assistant that learns from its use by creating and improving skills, retaining knowledge, searching past conversations, and adapting to its users. It is for people who want to run an agent through a terminal or messaging platforms while connecting it to different AI models and scheduled tasks.
Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

SkillSpector: 21 findings, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00013 | $0.03817 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.01527 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00763 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00382 |
Grade A, and why
hyperframes scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 209 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
HyperFrames
HTML is the source of truth for video. A composition is an HTML file with data-* attributes for timing, a GSAP timeline for animation, and CSS for appearance. The HyperFrames engine captures the page frame-by-frame and encodes to MP4/WebM with FFmpeg.
Complement to manim-video: Use manim-video for mathematical/geometric explainers (equations, 3B1B-style). Use hyperframes for motion-graphics, talking-head with captions, product tours, social overlays, shader transitions, and anything driven by real video/audio media.
When to Use
- User asks for a rendered video from text, a script, or a website
- Animated title cards, lower thirds, or typographic intros
- Captioned narration video (TTS + captions synced to waveform)
- Audio-reactive visuals (beat sync, spectrum bars, pulsing glow)
- Scene-to-scene transitions (crossfade, wipe, shader warp, flash-through-white)
- Social overlays (Instagram/TikTok/YouTube style)
- Website-to-video pipeline (capture a URL, produce a promo)
- Any HTML/CSS/JS animation that must render deterministically to a video file
Do not use this skill for:
- Pure math/equation animation (→
manim-video) - Image generation or memes (→
meme-generation, image models) - Live video conferencing or streaming
Quick Reference
npx hyperframes init my-video # scaffold a project
cd my-video
npx hyperframes lint # validate before preview/render
npx hyperframes preview # live-reload preview (long-lived server, port 3002)
npx hyperframes render --output final.mp4 # render to MP4
npx hyperframes doctor # diagnose environment issues
preview is a long-lived Next.js server that holds Chrome render workers open. Always stop it when done (see Cleanup) — a forgotten preview keeps idle chrome-headless-shell workers alive that, on GPU-less hosts (WSL, containers, CI), spin a CPU core each indefinitely via software WebGL (swiftshader).
What ships with it
7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
- 1mo ago First seen · 209 lines · 13 tokens per session scan A 65f32ac7049c
hyperframes is a skill published in the GitHub repository NousResearch/hermes-agent (254,750 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 3,817 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

Verify a Mem0 integration produced by /mem0-integrate. Runs in the same workspace on the same branch (loose coupling) — installs dependencies, runs the repo's native test suite, then exercises a real end-to-end smoke flow against the user's API key. Produces a scorecard. TRIGGER when: user has just run /mem0-integrate…

Write articles, guides, blog posts, tutorials, newsletter issues, and other long-form content in a distinctive voice derived from supplied examples or brand guidance. Use when the user wants polished written content longer than a paragraph, especially when voice consistency, structure, and credibility matter.
