Hermes 0.2 Just Dropped: Everything You Need to Know
Hermes 0.2 "Herald" just dropped, and it is one of the biggest updates the open-source AI agent by Nous Research has ever shipped. In this video I break down the features that actually matter: talking to Hermes like Jarvis, outbound webhooks that turn it into an all-in-one automation platform, A2A agent-to-agent communication, Smart Approvals, steering mid-response, and self-healing tools. I also walk through the desktop application, show the cheapest way to run Hermes with DeepSeek V4 Flash through OpenRouter, and flag the VPS limitation you need to know about before you upgrade.
