zeromem — Local Zero-Token Memory for Hermes

Rust-based memory system submitted to the Hermes Plugin Hackathon. Stores and searches with zero tokens, no external API, runs entirely locally. Explicitly aimed at stopping “wasting money on agent memory.”

Why it matters

Memory cost and external dependency are real pain points for persistent agents. A pure-local option that still integrates as a Hermes plugin is immediately useful to self-hosted and cost-conscious operators.

Hermes Memory Providers & Setup

Built-in MEMORY.md / USER.md stay always on. `hermes memory setup` walks through external providers (Mem0, Honcho, Hindsight, etc.) for semantic search, knowledge graphs, and automatic fact extraction. One external provider at a time.

Hermes Memory Setup Walkthrough

Practical guide to `hermes memory setup`. Hermes keeps MEMORY.md / USER.md; a memory provider runs alongside for semantic search, knowledge graphs, and automatic fact extraction. One command walks through provider selection. Built-in memory stays active. Good for long-running projects or daily agents.
