NEW Hermes Agent Tool Search Update is Insane (FREE!)

from AI News Today | Julian Goldie Podcast · host Julian Goldie

Hermes Agent Tool Search: Faster AI Agents That Pick the Right Tool (49% → 74%) | Hermes v0.15 UpdateThe script explains Hermes Agent’s new Tool Search feature and how it fixes a key scaling problem: loading too many tools upfront consumes context window space, slows agents down, and increases wrong tool selection. With Tool Search, Hermes keeps only core tools loaded and retrieves other tools only when needed, improving correct tool choice from 49% to 74% and maintaining speed even with large tool stacks; it activates automatically when tools exceed 10% of context. The video also highlights Hermes v0.15 improvements including faster searches, the ability to split into two specialist agents (planner and doer) that build separate skill libraries over time, and Kanban Swarms for running multiple agents collaboratively. It notes Hermes is open source from Nous Research, works with OpenClaw, can be updated via a terminal command, and showcases examples like generating a local SEO guide, keyword mapping, and video creation.00:00 Tool Search Breakthrough00:43 Why More Tools Hurt02:08 How Tool Search Works02:58 Auto Activation Explained03:23 Business Impact Examples05:18 Hermes v0.15 Extras06:39 What Is Hermes Agent07:44 Real Project Demo08:52 Bigger Picture Shift09:33 Getting Help Setup10:28 Final Takeaways
