Is Hermes an Agent OS -This is not the correct question ? 🚀🪽
It’s: “What is still missing before we can trust it like one?”
Two months ago, I called Hermes an Agent Operating System. Today, I’d put five expectations behind that phrase:
✋Isolation: Give each agent only the files, credentials, and access its job needs. A job title is not a security boundary.
👀Visibility: Show me which agent is working, what it changed, and where it’s stuck—not just “task completed.”
👷♀️Control: Let me steer or stop the worker doing the job without restarting the whole team.
⚡️Recovery: Contain failures, preserve good work, and clearly distinguish what can be restored from what cannot be undone.
😎Ownership: Let me change models without losing my workflows, history, and settings. My operation shouldn’t depend on one model staying the best.
These are standards to test, not guarantees to assume.
