- 1.Open the Hermes Agent OS website and sign up: click Sign Up in the top right corner, enter your email and password, and confirm via the link in the email.
The free plan lets you create up to 3 agents - more than enough to get started.
Hermes Agent OS ↗ - 2.In the left menu, open the API Keys section, then click Add Provider. Add two providers - DeepSeek and Moonshot (Kimi). For each, paste your API key: get the DeepSeek key from the DeepSeek platform under the API Keys tab, and the Kimi key from the Moonshot AI console under API Key Management.
Never share your keys with third parties or paste them into public repositories. DeepSeek offers bonus credits to new users; Moonshot gives free requests in the first month. Check the current limits on the pricing page before starting.
DeepSeek Platform ↗ - 3.Go to the Models section and confirm that DeepSeek V4 Flash and Kimi K3 appear in the list. If a model is not showing up - refresh the page after adding the key. Click Test connection next to each model to make sure the keys work.
If a model is missing from the list, make sure your API key is linked to a region where the model is available. DeepSeek V4 Flash is the fastest and cheapest in the lineup; Kimi K3 supports context up to 256K tokens.
Hermes Agent OS ↗ - 4.Click Create Agent in the left panel. Fill in the Name field (for example, 'Daily Brief'). In the Model field, select DeepSeek V4 Flash for search and summarization steps, and Kimi K3 for the final analysis of long texts. In the System Prompt section, paste the ready-made prompt below, replacing the data in square brackets.
Splitting models saves money and time: Flash handles short requests in seconds for pennies, while K3 kicks in only when the content is long.
Hermes Agent OS ↗PromptYou are a personal research assistant. Every morning at 7:00 UTC, collect the latest news about [YOUR_INDUSTRY_OR_TOPIC] from these sources: [LIST_OF_SOURCES_OR_URLS]. For each item extract: headline, source name, key takeaway in 1-2 sentences, relevance score from 1 to 5. Then produce a consolidated summary in Russian, no more than 300 words, with a short «Action items» section at the end. Tone: concise, professional, no fluff.
What this prompt doesThe English prompt assigns the agent the role of a personal research assistant. Replace [YOUR_INDUSTRY_OR_TOPIC] with your topic (for example, 'fintech regulation in EU'), and [LIST_OF_SOURCES_OR_URLS] with a comma-separated list of websites or RSS feeds. The agent will collect news, highlight the key points, and send you a summary in Russian no longer than 300 words with an «Action items» section. - 5.In the Tools section, enable the Web Search and Summarize toggles. In the Schedule section, select Daily and set the launch time (for example, 07:00). Click Save Agent.
Web Search works through Hermes' built-in search - no separate key needed. Make sure your time zone in the profile settings is correct, otherwise the agent will launch at the wrong time.
Hermes Agent OS ↗ - 6.On the agent page, click the Test Run button. Within 1 - 2 minutes, the summary will appear in the Results panel. Check that the output language is Russian, the length is within 300 words, and the Action items section is present. If something is off - edit the System Prompt and click Test Run again.
The first run costs about 2 - 4 cents in API credits. If the summary is empty, check that the sources in the prompt are accessible without authorization.
