According to monitoring by Dongcha Beating, Nous Research has released the open-source agent framework Hermes Agent v0.13.0. The official name for this version is 'Tenacity', aimed at addressing the issues of agents abandoning long-term tasks or deviating from their goals. The most significant change is the reinstatement of the Kanban multi-agent collaboration system, which was briefly tested and then withdrawn. The new Kanban includes heartbeat detection, zombie process recovery, a single-task retry limit, and a 'hallucination recovery' mechanism, which enforces that agents claiming tasks must complete them, preventing the entire AI team from spinning its wheels on a shared Kanban. For individual agent control, the new version introduces the /goal command, which locks the agent's attention firmly on the current objective, unaffected by multi-turn dialogues. Additionally, several underlying mechanisms have been reinforced: Checkpoints v2 has rewritten state persistence and will automatically clean up useless records; ongoing sessions will automatically resume after a system gateway restart. Furthermore, this version fixes eight P0 level critical vulnerabilities, defaults to enabling data anonymization, and transforms the underlying model into a fully pluggable architecture.
