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**LearnHarness.** The in-app agent reads files but cannot change them or run commands, and a bundled skill gives other agents a documented read-only view of sessions and the knowledge graph. The project is 14 days old at 0.4.0, its file reads reach the whole home directory without approval, and it has no security policy.\n\n## Before you call either\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### LearnHarness\n\n1. Use the bundled skill (`skills/learnharness/SKILL.md`) to read a learner's record. It needs Python 3.10 or later and writes nothing\n2. Pass `--format json` before the subcommand, for example `python3 -B scripts/graph.py --format json propositions`\n3. Treat stored answer keys and teacher prose as model-authored. A proposition in the graph is not evidence the learner understood it\n4. Do not read `auth.json`, which sits one folder above the data folder and holds provider keys in plain text\n5. Close the app or re-read when a stable snapshot matters. The readers do not lock files while the app writes\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Hermes Agent or LearnHarness?\n\nHermes Agent scores 68.2 (B) on agent readiness against LearnHarness's 59.3 (C), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Are Hermes Agent and LearnHarness open source?\n\nYes. Hermes Agent is open source (MIT). LearnHarness is open source (AGPL-3.0-only).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/hermes-agent-vs-learnharness.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/hermes-agent-vs-learnharness.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"hermes-agent\", \"b\": \"learnharness\"}`.
