Hermes Agent Guide

What Hermes Agent Guide does

The repository contains a 16-volume guide titled Hermes Agent 白皮书 (Hermes Agent White Paper). The author describes it as the first systematic Chinese-language guide to Hermes Agent, with more than 300,000 characters covering installation, daily use, architecture, memory, skills, tools, MCP, cron scheduling, multi-agent orchestration and comparison with OpenClaw.

Volumes are separate Markdown files with a table of contents and four suggested reading routes: a quick-start route of 3 to 4 hours, a deep technical route, a monetization route, and a route for migrating from OpenClaw. Individual volumes cover the five-layer architecture, the three-layer memory system, the skills lifecycle and Skills Hub, 47 built-in tools, connecting 15+ messaging platforms such as Feishu, WeChat, Discord and Slack, and local, Docker and VPS deployment. A Python script in the repository converts the Markdown into a PDF.
