About This Course
<div>“This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.”</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;">Want to install, master, and automate your own AI agent — instead of just talking to a chatbot? Hermes Agent is a self-improving, provider-agnostic AI agent that runs from your terminal, your desktop, and even your favourite messaging apps. This complete, hands-on course takes you from a blank terminal to running advanced multi-agent automation pipelines — no prior AI agent experience required.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;">Whether you're a developer, IT professional, automation enthusiast, or AI power user, this course teaches you everything you need to install Hermes Agent, connect it to any LLM provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Nous Portal, or local models), and put it to work automating real tasks — from coding and research to system administration and scheduled jobs.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;">Across 14 modules and 63 lessons (~6+ hours), you'll go step by step from a first-time install through advanced developer topics like building custom tools, plugins, and MCP servers. You'll learn how Hermes's agent loop, skills system, and persistent memory work together to create an AI agent that actually improves the more you use it — and how to deploy it as a Gateway across Telegram, Discord, Slack, and 20+ other platforms without losing any capability.</span></div><div><br></div><div>Each module has its own set of resources to help you grasp processes and commands and a quiz to test your knowledge.</div><div><br></div><div>By the end of this course, you'll be able to configure, secure, automate, and even extend your own Hermes Agent installation with confidence — turning it into a genuine AI teammate for your daily workflow.</div>
What you'll learn:
- Install and configure Hermes Agent from scratch on macOS, Linux, or Windows/WSL, and connect it to any major LLM provider
- Operate Hermes confidently day-to-day — managing sessions, context, toolsets, and slash commands to control exactly how the agent reasons and responds.
- Extend the agent's capabilities using skills and memory — teaching Hermes new reusable workflows and enabling it to recall context across sessions.
- Deploy and automate Hermes beyond the terminal — running it as a Gateway across Telegram, Discord, Slack, and other platforms, and triggering it with cron jobs
- Build multi-agent and secure production workflows — using delegation, subagents, profiles, and the Kanban board, while applying approval modes.
- Extend and maintain Hermes as a developer — building custom tools, commands, and plugins, troubleshooting common issues, and keeping the installation up to date
