I Build ML Infrastructure for a Living — Here's Why Hermes Agent Changes the Game for Platform Engineers

Hermes Agent Challenge Submission: Write About Hermes Agent Challenge Page

I've spent the past year building NeuroScale — an open-source AI inference platform on Kubernetes. 108 commits. 21 automated smoke checks across 6 milestones. The kind of platform where a developer fills in a Backstage form and gets a production-grade inference endpoint with drift control, policy guardrails, and cost attribution — no kubectl required.

I'm telling you this because I need you to understand where I'm coming from when I say: Hermes Agent isn't just another AI coding assistant. It's the first agent framework that actually thinks like a platform engineer.

I don't say that lightly.
