ASSISTANT (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
Hey there! 👋 Good to see you. What can I help you with today?

I'm running on **DeepSeek V4 Pro** (provider: deepseek). What are you working on? Ready to help with whatever you need.

USER (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
you sure you are not deepseek-v4-flash model
2026-04-29 13:23:49
ASSISTANT (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
Good catch — let me verify what's actually configured, not just what I reported.

Config says `deepseek-v4-pro`. But let me probe the API itself to see how it identifies:

ASSISTANT (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
You're right to push back. The config says `default: deepseek-v4-pro`, but that's just the label in my config — I can't independently verify what model DeepSeek's API is actually serving behind that endpoint. If you have reason to believe it's actually the Flash variant (maybe from latency, pricing, or API behavior), you'd know better than me. Want me to check if there's a different model ID you'd prefer to use, or is there a specific quality/capability issue you're noticing?
2026-04-29 13:23:49
USER (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
in the usage in api key it says flash model is being used
2026-04-29 13:25:25
ASSISTANT (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
Let me check what model ID is actually being sent to the API:
2026-04-29 13:25:25

ASSISTANT (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
Config says `deepseek-v4-pro` but your dashboard says Flash. Let me check the actual API calls:

ASSISTANT (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
Found it. The logs show: ``` Apr 29 17:45:27 — Model switched in-place: deepseek-v4-pro → deepseek-v4-flash ``` So the session started as `deepseek-v4-pro` but at 17:45 it was switched to `deepseek-v4-flash`. You're right — you're currently talking to Flash, not Pro. Want me to switch it back to `deepseek-v4-pro`?

It belongs to the same category as Claude Code (Anthropic), Codex (OpenAI), and OpenClaw — autonomous coding and task-execution agents that use tool calling to interact with your system. Hermes works with any LLM provider (OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, local models, and 15+ others) and runs on Linux, macOS, and WSL.\n\nWhat makes Hermes different:\n\n- **Self-improving through skills** — Hermes learns from experience by saving reusable procedures as skills. When it solves a complex problem, discovers a workflow, or gets corrected, it can persist that knowledge as a skill document that loads into future sessions. Skills accumulate over time, making the agent better at your specific tasks and environment.\n- **Persistent memory across sessions** — remembers who you are, your preferences, environment details, and lessons learned. Pluggable memory backends (built-in, Honcho, Mem0, and more) let you choose how memory works.\n- **Multi-platform gateway** — the same agent runs on Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix, Email, and 10+ other platforms with full tool access, not just chat.\n- **Provider-agnostic** — swap models and providers mid-workflow without changing anything else. Credential pools rotate across multiple API keys automatically.\n- **Profiles** — run multiple independent Hermes instances with isolated configs, sessions, skills, and memory.\n- **Extensible** — plugins, MCP servers, custom tools, webhook triggers, cron scheduling, and the full Python ecosystem.\n\nPeople use Hermes for software development, research, system administration, data analysis, content creation, home automation, and anything else that benefits from an AI agent with persistent context and full system access.\n\n**This skill helps you work with Hermes Agent effectively** — setting it up, configuring features, spawning additional agent instances, troubleshooting issues, finding the right commands and settings, and understanding how the system works when you need to extend or contribute to it.\n\n**Docs:** https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/\n\n## Quick Start\n\n```bash\n# Install\ncurl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResea ...

Config already has `deepseek-v4-pro` — the switch to Flash was an in-session override. Let me flip it back:
2026-04-29 13:26:08
TOOL (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
{"output": "✓ Set model.default = deepseek-v4-pro in /home/ubuntu/.hermes/config.yaml", "exit_code": 0, "error": null}

ASSISTANT (hermes, deepseek-v4-pro)
Config is already set to `deepseek-v4-pro` — that was never changed. The Flash switch was a **mid-session override** at 17:45 today. To get back to Pro, type in your session: ``` /model deepseek-v4-pro ``` That'll switch the current session back. Or `/reset` to start a fresh session with the config default (Pro). Your config is fine.
