Conversation memory
The Hermes agent can iterate and evolve on its own as conversations continue. Learn more about your memory by visiting the "Memory" page.

How memory works
Hermes builds up long-term memory automatically through two mechanisms:
- Context compression: distills the key information from long conversations into long-lived memory.
- Key memory nodes: automatically captures personal preferences, usage habits, and project-related information worth reusing later.
How memory is stored
Memory is persisted into two kinds of documents:
MEMORY.md: project information, runtime environment, and collaboration conventions
USER.md: the user's personal preferences, usage habits, and communication style
Only content with long-term value is retained, so that Hermes can give coherent, personalized replies in later conversations.
