Disabling Hermes Planning in CLI | Generated by AI
Question: How do I disable the Hermes agent’s planning/delegation feature in my CLI agent setup? It’s too slow.
Answer:
That output is from your custom mimo / Hermes agent framework — the orchestrator loop with delegate_task. To disable planning, the approach depends on how Hermes is implemented. Based on the pattern shown (self-improvement review → spec review → code quality review → delegate), here’s how to track it down and disable it:
1. Find the planning/delegation config
# Search for the orchestration entrypoint
grep -r "hermes\|delegate_task\|plan\|spec.*review\|code.*quality" ~/your-agent-repo --include="*.py" -l
# Or if it's in a config file
find . -name "*.yaml" -o -name "*.toml" -o -name "*.json" | xargs grep -l "hermes\|delegate\|plan"
2. Common patterns to disable
If it’s a flag in a config file:
# agent config
planning: false
delegate: false
review_steps: []
If it’s a CLI flag:
mimo --no-plan
mimo --disable-hermes
mimo --mode direct # skip orchestration layer
If it’s code — find the orchestration loop:
# Look for something like this and short-circuit it
class Hermes:
def run(self, task):
if self.config.get("planning", True): # <-- set to False
plan = self.make_plan(task)
for step in plan:
self.delegate_task(step)
else:
self.execute_direct(task) # what you want
3. Quick env var override (common pattern)
HERMES_PLAN=false mimo "do the task"
DISABLE_PLANNING=1 mimo "do the task"
4. If this is a third-party agent framework
Based on the UI (⚕ Hermes, mimo-v2.5-pro, token counter), this looks like it could be Hermes by Nous Research or a custom wrapper. Share the repo/tool name and I can give exact steps. Or:
mimo --help | grep -i "plan\|delegate\|review\|mode"
What’s the actual tool/repo behind mimo and Hermes? That’ll let me give you the exact flag.
