When I created the cron to sync to my GitHub account, it was able to complete that step but it said this at the bottom: "Important clarification This cron syncs the GitHub repo folder: /root/[my-hermes-agent] It does not automatically export every Hermes memory or every local skill unless we intentionally write/copy those into the repo. My recommendation: from now on, when we build durable Eloise systems, I should save the source-of-truth version into /root/[my-hermes-agent] so the nightly sync picks it up." Did I build it correctly, or do I need to make any specific changes to ensure the sync is working accurately?

I am working on building the Hermes Agent(s) step by step. I just have one question (I'm not a coder). In his other video I built my "first agentic agent." In my visual studio code I have all those docs and folders up in my explorer (see attached screenshot). Do I need to add a new folder or start fresh or anything in order to build the hermes agent and keep everything organized? Cause my explorer obviously does not look like his from the video. I'm worried that I'm going to use up a crap ton of tokens building these agents if I keep my explorer as is because it will index through all the other stuff I built, right?

This is a complete walkthrough of getting Hermes Agent set up from scratch on a VPS. You'll see how to install it on Hostinger, connect it to Telegram, set up your first skill and cron job, and back everything up to GitHub. By the end you'll understand the five pillars of Hermes, when to use it instead of Claude Code, and how to scale to multiple agents without breaking anything.
