Hermes Agent on AWS with Bedrock

What Hermes Agent on AWS with Bedrock does

This repository is a deployment sample for running Hermes Agent on AWS with Amazon Bedrock as the model provider. It is built around a one-click CloudFormation template, IAM-based authentication in place of API keys, and access to several models through Bedrock. The README says the deployment now installs from the official PyPI release instead of a fork.

The author lists Bedrock work that was merged upstream into Hermes Agent, including a native Bedrock provider that uses the Converse API and a fix that preserves reasoningContent in normalized responses. Further pull requests for inference-profile modalities and service_tier support were listed as open at the time of writing. The project is described as the Hermes counterpart to the author's OpenClaw on AWS with Bedrock deployment, and the README includes a comparison table of the two agents plus a link to a Chinese translation.
