Quick Commands

From Official Docs · September 25, 2026

You can define custom commands that run shell commands instantly without invoking the LLM. These work in both the CLI and messaging platforms (Telegram, Discord, etc.). Then type /status , /gpu , or /restart in any chat. See the Configuration guide for more examples.

From the official Hermes Agent documentation.
