About
Seven-day online hackathon to build plugins for Hermes Agent. Any kind of plugin counts: it can change the model Hermes runs on, where it stores memory, where it runs commands, which messaging apps it works in, or what Hermes Desktop shows. To enter, open a pull request adding your plugin to the Hermes plugin catalog, post a demo video under 90 seconds on X tagging @NousResearch, then submit both links through the entry form. Judges score usefulness, reliability, polish and creativity, and favor plugins that do more than a prompt or skill could. Accepted entries are listed in the Hermes Marketplace. Submissions close Nov 11 at 5 PM EST.
