How to get started with Hermes agent at CometAPI

Hermes Agent gets started with CometAPI by creating a CometAPI API key, installing Hermes Agent, saving your CometAPI key in Hermes’ secret store, choosing a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint for the model, and verifying the setup with hermes doctor and a test chat. Hermes Agent, the open-source self-improving agent from Nous Research, stands out as one of the most capable options—especially when powered by CometAPI’s unified OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
