Create one

gentity compute create --agent hermes --model openrouter/auto

First run

Hermes has a built-in web dashboard on the workspace URL plus a TUI you can reach via gentity compute ssh <id> and then hermes --tui. Both share the same HERMES_HOME=/opt/data so sessions started in one show up in the other.

On first boot the upstream entrypoint seeds /opt/data with default config, memory, skills, and a SOUL.md describing the agent's persona. Edit any of these from the dashboard's Skills / Config tabs or directly via SSH.
