Nous Research Ships Bot Mode for Hermes Agent, Turning Agent Profiles Into a Roster of Named Bots

Nous Research has introduced Bot Mode for its Hermes Agent, shifting the interface from a single-agent session list to a roster of distinct, named profiles. Each bot within this system maintains individual memory, skill sets, and model configurations. This update, now integrated as the default in Hermes Desktop, allows users to manage multiple specialized agents simultaneously rather than interacting with a single, monolithic session.
