Unmaintained — looking for an owner. Hermes Agent removes its bundled byterover memory provider from core on October 15, 2026. This repo is a standalone copy of that provider, kept by Nous Research only so someone can take it over: Nous does not maintain it, publish fixes for it, or list it in the Hermes plugin catalog. We've asked ByteRover to take it over (campfirein/brv-openclaw-plugin#33). ByteRover or anyone else who wants to own it: open an issue here and we'll help with the handoff (repo transfer or fork, plus the catalog entry that lets hermes update move existing users onto your plugin). See HANDOFF.md.

ByteRover Memory Provider

# or
npm install -g byterover-cli

Setup

# Optional cloud sync:
echo "BRV_API_KEY=your-key" >> ~/.hermes/.env
