Hermes adds durable multi-agent work with retries and recovery
Hermes Agent v0.13.0 introduced a persistent Kanban board where multiple agents claim, hand off, and complete tasks using heartbeats, reclaim, zombie detection, retry budgets, incomplete-exit blocking, and a hallucination gate. A goal mode kept an agent focused across turns, and gateway sessions resumed after restarts.

Magnitude 64: persistent coordination, recovery, retries, and goal continuity make teams of agents more capable of completing long-running work with less operator intervention. Confidence 65: the primary release documents specific mechanisms and safety checks, but independent effectiveness evidence and real-world scale are limited.
