Hermes Agent v0.21.0 Makes Cron Jobs Remember and Lets You Steer a Subagent Mid-Flight
NousResearch tagged hermes-agent v2026.8.31 on 2026-08-31T19:29:49Z, confirmed via the GitHub releases API, covering roughly 5,800 commits and 2,475 merged PRs from 760+ contributors since v0.20.0. The two changes that matter for anyone running scheduled agents: cron jobs now load and update persistent memory with a continuity=true flag that carries each run's output into the next so a monitor can dedupe against what it already reported, and monitor-mode jobs skip the LLM call entirely when nothing changed. delegate_task also gained live orchestration, so you can list running children, course-correct one mid-flight, or stop it early and keep the partial result, with defaults raised to 250 iterations and 10 concurrent children.
