Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent (Nous Research) includes OpenViking as a built-in memory provider. No plugin installation is required. Point Hermes to your OpenViking service to enable native memory storage, recall, and extraction.

Configure

Run the Hermes memory setup wizard:

bash
hermes memory setup

The wizard asks for:

  • OpenViking service URL - A self-hosted server (default http://127.0.0.1:1933) or Volcengine OpenViking Cloud
  • API Key - Leave empty for local development mode
  • Tenant account / user / agent ID - Used for multi-tenant deployments

The configuration is saved to Hermes config.yaml and .env files.

Verify

bash
hermes memory status

After configuration, Hermes automatically uses OpenViking as long-term memory. Memory tools such as viking_remember and viking_recall are available immediately.
