Hermes Plugin: Sprites is a terminal backend plugin for Hermes Agent from Nous Research. It runs agent commands in stateful Fly.io cloud sandboxes that support checkpoint and restore.
What Hermes Plugin: Sprites does
This repository contains a plugin that adds Sprites as a terminal backend for Hermes Agent. Hermes can run its terminal tool in several places, such as locally, in Docker, over SSH or on cloud sandbox services, and this plugin adds another remote option.
According to the repository description, the sandboxes are stateful and hosted on Fly.io, and they support checkpoint and restore. That means the state of a working environment can be saved and returned to later, which suits long-running or experimental agent work that should not touch the local machine. The repository is written in Python and sits under the NousResearch organization on GitHub. It has no README text and no license file in the data available here, so setup steps, configuration options and requirements are not documented in what was reviewed. Check the repository itself for current instructions before relying on it.
