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.
