Hermes Agent Tip of the Day: 🪽
If you’re running GPT-5.6 with Hermes, there’s a brand new setting you should know about.
Hermes can now use OpenAI’s native Responses API server-side compaction for long-running sessions.
Turn it on:
compression:
codex_responses_native: true
Here’s the cool part:
Instead of waiting for Hermes to locally compress a massive conversation, OpenAI can compact the older context server-side first.
Hermes then keeps the encrypted compaction checkpoint and replays it on future turns.
So you get:
→ Better long-session context management
→ Persistent compaction across turns
→ Less unnecessary transcript baggage
→ Hermes’ normal local compression still sitting there as a fallback
And this isn’t blindly enabled across every provider.
It’s specifically gated to GPT-5.6 running through the direct OpenAI API or your ChatGPT Codex subscription.
OpenRouter, xAI, Copilot, local models, etc. don’t get the field shoved at them and told “good luck.” 😂
This one landed yesterday.
If you’re using Hermes for long-running coding or agent workflows with GPT-5.6, I’d absolutely be testing this. 🤘🏻
Everybody stop and watch this.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, a legal immigrant, successful actor, and former California Governor, just left The View STUNNED.
They attempted to get him to condemn ICE raids and what did he do?
He credited America for his success, promoted legal immigration, and called out violent criminal aliens.
Absolute masterclass:
“I'm so proud and happy that I was embraced by the American people like that. Imagine I came over here with absolutely nothing, and then to create a career like that. In no other country in the world could you do that. Every single thing is because of America.”
“The key thing is that we got to do things legal. Those people that are doing illegal things in America, and they're the foreigners, they are not smart. When you come to America, you're a guest and you have to behave like a guest.”
“You have a responsibility as an immigrant to give back to America and to pay back to America and to go and do something for your community.”
🚨ELECTION INTERFERENCE: Voters in Kentucky are reporting not being able to select Trump on voting machines.
After multiple tries, it auto-selects Kamala.
This is why we NEED paper ballots.
