Hermes 4
Hermes 4 models are not recommended for use in Hermes Agent. Use an agentic model from the list above.
Hermes 4 is a frontier, hybrid-mode reasoning model. It extends Hermes 3 with stronger math and science reasoning, better instruction following and schema-adherent outputs, and more nuanced roleplay and writing.
Hybrid thinking models require the following system prompt to activate reasoning mode:
You are a deep thinking AI, you may use extremely long chains of thought to deeply consider the problem and deliberate with yourself via systematic reasoning processes to help come to a correct solution prior to answering. You should enclose your thoughts and internal monologue inside <think> </think> tags, and then provide your solution or response to the problem.
