Looking for a Hermes changelog — what's actually new in Hermes agent? Hermes moves fast, so here's a plain-English roundup of the biggest recent updates, what each one does, and the walkthrough video where I tested it. This isn't the official line-by-line release notes; it's the major updates that genuinely change what Hermes can do, the way I cover them.

Hermes Changelog: The Biggest Recent Updates
Here are the updates worth knowing about, newest first:
- Computer use on Windows & Linux (June 2026): Hermes can now click and type to control your computer on Windows and Linux as well as Mac — in the background, with its own cursor, so your mouse never moves. (See my Hermes computer use guide.)
- The Loop Engine: a builder-and-judge system where one model drafts, a separate model grades it out of 100, and it loops until it passes — automated quality control. (See the Hermes self-improvement loop.)
- Grok integration: plug Grok into Hermes with one login for real-time X search, image generation, video generation and text-to-speech. (See the best model for Hermes agent guide.)
- Agents from scratch: a newer update that builds whole agents for you from a simple brief.
- Swarms + free models: run multiple Hermes agents together, powered by free models so you can scale without burning tokens.
- Mission Control / Workspace: the dashboard that ties every agent into one screen. (See Hermes mission control and the Hermes workspace.)

How To Update Hermes
Keeping Hermes current is one command — run the Hermes update in your terminal before you change models or tools, so it understands the newest features. I always update first, then switch models with hermes model and enable features with hermes tools.
