Hermit is a framework that wraps an existing agent harness, adding a trainable layer of instructions, skills, memory, and tools. It learns from task feedback while leaving the underlying model and harness untouched.
Most agent improvements require fine-tuning the model or rewriting the harness. Hermit offers a modular path to adapt agents to new tasks without those costs, which could lower the barrier for agent customization.
Because it is Apache-2.0 and open source, developers can integrate it into existing agent stacks. It may also inform how agent capabilities are layered and updated, though real-world performance will depend on adoption and benchmarks.
