Integrate Hermes

Hermes is an open-source AI agent from Nous Research. Configure a custom OpenAI-compatible provider to use models enabled on HiModels.

1. Install Hermes

Run the official Hermes installation script in a terminal with Git installed:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

Reload your shell after installation before continuing. The command downloads the script from the official Hermes project; HiModels does not host it.

2. Run the Setup Wizard

Create a key from HiModels API Keys, then start the setup wizard:

hermes setup
  1. Choose Quick Setup.
  2. Choose OpenAI-compatible or Custom as the provider.
  3. Set the Base URL to https://api.himodels.ai/v1.
  4. Enter your HiModels API Key.
  5. Enter an enabled model ID and finish the remaining options.

3. Start Using Hermes

If HiModels is not listed as a preset, choose OpenAI-compatible or Custom instead of another platform-specific provider.
