FAQPage Schema
How do I synchronize my AI agent memory and configuration across multiple machines?▼

You can synchronize Hermes Agent memory and configuration across machines by backing up persistent state data to a GitHub repository, ensuring memories, skills, sessions, and credentials remain consistent across devices.

Can I back up my agent's sessions and credentials to GitHub?▼

Yes, you can back up agent sessions and credentials to GitHub. The synchronization process copies your local Hermes state, including webhook subscriptions and user profiles, to a remote repository for storage and later restoration.

How do I set up an existing AI agent on a new computer using a backup?▼

To set up an existing Hermes Agent on a new computer, run the bootstrap script provided in the synchronization repository. This restores your saved memory, skills, and configuration from GitHub to the local machine.

Do I need Git and GitHub to sync my agent's brain?▼

Yes, Git and GitHub are required to sync your agent's brain. The system assumes use of GitHub for synchronization storage, requiring both the Git dependency and a properly configured Hermes Agent on your local machine.

Can I automatically sync agent state changes without manual intervention?▼

Yes, you can automatically synchronize changes to the Hermes brain by setting up cron jobs. This auto-sync feature manages push and pull roles to keep persistent state data updated across multiple machines.

What are the limitations of syncing persistent state across devices?▼

A key limitation is that syncing persistent state requires a properly configured Hermes Agent on each local machine. Without this prerequisite environment, the bootstrap and synchronization scripts cannot function correctly.
