I Ran Hermes Agent on the Same Task for 7 Days. The Skill File on Day 7 Looked Nothing Like Day 1.
Summary

Hermes Agent's persistent skill file evolved from a 12-line placeholder to a 60-line intelligent procedure after 7 daily runs of an AI news digest task. It learned to avoid low-quality sources like TechCrunch, prioritize Hacker News and GitHub Releases, and generated summaries with technical context (e.g., noting breaking changes) — all without manual intervention, unlike stateless agent frameworks such as LangChain or AutoGen.
