Single Upwork Job: Hermes Agent VPS Configuration & Debugging

--- ## Configure Hermes Docker Agent – SSH Access + LiteLLM Response Parsing + Docker/VPS Management I have a Hermes AI agent running as a Docker container on my Hostinger VPS. I need three things fixed and configured: **MILESTONE 1: Verify & Configure Hermes SSH Access to VPS Host** Ensure the Hermes Docker container has working SSH access to the VPS host system to execute commands for installation, configuration, and debugging. Deliverables: - Verify/establish SSH access from Hermes container to VPS host - SSH credentials configured (key-based auth preferred) - Test: Hermes successfully executes VPS commands - Documentation of the setup **MILESTONE 2: Fix Non-LLM Model Response Format (JSON → Text)** Chat/LLM models return text correctly. Any other model type via LiteLLM returns raw JSON instead of natural text responses. Deliverables: - Non-LLM models return natural text responses (not JSON) - Root cause identified and documented - Before/after test demonstrating the fix - Config or system prompt changes applied **MILESTONE 3: Configure Hermes with Docker/VPS Management Skills & Plugins** Set up Hermes with skills, plugins, and system prompts to manage Docker containers and VPS operations. Deliverables: - Update Hermes system prompts for Docker/VPS admin queries - Create/configure Hermes skills for common Docker operations - Set up MCP tools for VPS management - Practical examples and documentation - Live demo showing end-to-end workflow
