Module 2 of the Hermes Agent Masterclass — get your agent running 24/7 on a $6/month server, sandboxed in Docker, and reachable from Telegram and Discord.

We cover the six available backends (with focus on local, Docker, and VPS), set up a hardened Docker sandbox on a local PC, deploy a 24/7 Hermes instance on a $6/month Digital Ocean droplet, then configure the gateway with both Telegram and Discord adapters so you have one agent reachable from any platform — same memory, same sessions, same skills. Ends with a live demo bouncing a contractor quote business idea between Telegram, Discord, and the CLI to prove the unified state actually works. ✅ Full Docker backend setup with persistent file system — sandboxes commands away from your host machine while keeping all your Hermes config intact. ✅ Step-by-step VPS deployment on Digital Ocean: droplet creation, SSH key auth, install, and System D service with linger so the gateway survives SSH logouts. ✅ Configure both Telegram and Discord bots from scratch — including the easy-to-miss Discord intents that cause empty messages if you skip them. 💻 Tonbi's GitHub: https://github.com/tonbistudio 🌐 Portfolio: https://www.tonbistudio.com Resources: 🔗 Hermes Agent (Nous Research): https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent 🔗 Docker Desktop: https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/ 🔗 Digital Ocean: https://www.digitalocean.com/ 🔗 Discord Developer Portal: https://discord.com/developers/applications 🔗 Telegram BotFather: https://t.me/botfather Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro: Module 2 overview and what we're building 1:06 - The six Hermes backends explained 3:13 - Switching the local backend to Docker 6:33 - Verifying the Docker sandbox isolation 9:37 - Spinning up a $6 Digital Ocean droplet 13:47 - Installing Hermes on the VPS 14:53 - The gateway: one agent, 16 platforms 15:55 - Setting up the Telegram bot 17:40 - Setting up the Discord bot (and the intents gotcha) 24:20 - Live demo: one agent across Telegram, Discord, and CLI Coming Next: Module 3 of the Master Class: SKILLS — where Hermes really shines.
