Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent (Nous Research) reaches any OpenAI-compatible API through its custom provider. Point base_url at https://api.hoonify.ai/v1 in ~/.hermes/config.yaml, or run hermes model and choose Custom endpoint to enter it interactively.

Get an API key

You need a key first. Create one on the Subscriptions page — keys are revealed once at creation, so copy it before closing the dialog.

~/.hermes/config.yaml

model:
  default: deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro
  provider: custom
  base_url: https://api.hoonify.ai/v1
  api_key: hooni_…

Keep the /v1 suffix on base_url — Hermes calls the endpoint directly when provider is custom. To run a different model, set model.default to any catalog model or re-run hermes model.
