GitHub·high signal

Hermes Agent v0.6.0 dropped March 30 with 216 merged PRs from 63 contributors resolving 119 issues. The headline features: multi-instance profiles for running isolated agent instances with separate memory/skills/config, MCP server mode exposing conversations to Claude Desktop/Cursor/VS Code, Docker container support, ordered fallback provider chains for automatic inference failover, and two new messaging platforms (Feishu/Lark, WeCom). The self-improving learning loop — where the agent autonomously creates and refines skills through experience — remains the core differentiator at 19.9K stars gaining 1,909/day.
