Hermes Guide

Hermes is an AI Agent tool that supports connecting to Flux through a custom OpenAI-compatible interface.

Installation

Use the official installation script:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

After installation, the default config directory is usually ~/.hermes.

Connect to Flux

1. Follow Create API Key to generate an API key.

2. Edit ~/.hermes/config.yaml and add or confirm the following configuration:

   model:
     default: 'gpt-5.6-sol'
     provider: 'custom'
     base_url: 'https://api.tryflux.net/v1'

3. Edit ~/.hermes/.env and write:

   OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_FLUX_API_KEY
   OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.tryflux.net/v1

   Replace YOUR_FLUX_API_KEY with your actual API key.

Verify Configuration

After saving the configuration, run:

hermes config check
hermes chat -Q -q 'Only reply OK' --max-turns 3

If the command returns normally, Hermes has successfully called a model through Flux.
