Honcho Memory for Hermes

Honcho provides AI-native cross-session user modeling. It learns who the user is across conversations and gives every Hermes profile its own peer identity while sharing a unified view of the user.

When to Use

• Setting up Honcho (cloud or self-hosted)
• Troubleshooting memory not working / peers not syncing
• Creating multi-profile setups where each agent has its own Honcho peer
• Tuning observation, recall, dialectic depth, or write frequency settings
• Understanding what the 5 Honcho tools do and when to use them
• Configuring context budgets and session summary injection

Setup

Honcho is a plugin-catalog memory provider maintained by Plastic Labs. Install it once per machine (homes upgraded from a release that bundled Honcho get it automatically):
