Quick start

ollama launch hermes
Ollama handles everything automatically:
  1. Install — If Hermes isn’t installed, Ollama prompts to install it via the Nous Research install script
  2. Model — Pick a model from the selector (local or cloud)
  3. Onboarding — Ollama configures the Ollama provider, points Hermes at http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1, and sets your model as the primary
  4. Gateway — Optionally connects a messaging platform (Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Email) and launches the Hermes chat
Cloud models:
  • kimi-k2.5:cloud — Multimodal reasoning with subagents
  • glm-5.1:cloud — Reasoning and code generation
  • qwen3.5:cloud — Reasoning, coding, and agentic tool use with vision
  • minimax-m2.7:cloud — Fast, efficient coding and real-world productivity
Local models:
  • gemma4 — Reasoning and code generation locally (~16 GB VRAM)
  • qwen3.6 — Reasoning, coding, and visual understanding locally (~24 GB VRAM)
