It has no API, MCP server or documented command for another agent, it is five days old, and it rebuilds itself from the main branch every six hours by default.\n\n**Hermes Agent.** Card payments always ask first and are refused in unattended sessions, and the messaging gateway denies every sender until an allowlist is set. Shell commands run on the host by default with a model judging risk, and sending mail through the Google Workspace skill is held back only by an instruction to the model.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Atticus\n\n1. Don't plan to call Atticus from another agent. It takes requests only from its own shortcut and typing box\n2. If a user runs Atticus beside you, expect it to move windows and type into apps on the same Mac\n3. Point a user who wants pinned versions to Settings \u003e About \u0026 Updates to turn off self-update\n\n### Hermes Agent\n\n1. Set `approvals.mode: manual` before giving it real accounts. The default `smart` lets an auxiliary model approve commands\n2. Run the gateway with `terminal.backend: docker` or the project's Docker image when it reads mail, web pages or group chats\n3. Set `memory.write_approval: true` and `skills.write_approval: true` to review what it saves about the owner\n4. Leave `approvals.cron_mode` and `approvals.unattended_mode` at `deny` for scheduled and webhook runs\n5. Set `TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS` or the matching allowlist per channel. Never set `GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS=true`\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Atticus or Hermes Agent?\n\nHermes Agent scores 67.9 (B) on agent readiness against Atticus's 42.9 (E), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Atticus leads on reliability.\n\n### Are Atticus and Hermes Agent open source?\n\nYes. Atticus is open source (MIT).
