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
Current upstream also distributes Honcho through the Hermes plugin catalog (provider: Plastic Labs). Only when the user requests installation, check the installed CLI help and use hermes plugins install honcho if that command is supported. Do not run an installer just because this skill was loaded. Preserve the configured endpoint, profile and credentials when migrating an existing setup.
