Hermes Agent's new async subagents take aim at the blocking-agent problem

Nous Research cofounder Teknium announced that Hermes Agent now supports asynchronous subagents, moving its delegate tool out of the blocking pattern that constrained multi-agent work. The update allows parallel task execution without waiting for child agents to finish.

Teknium @Teknium , the Nous Research cofounder and head of post training behind the Hermes model line, said Monday that Hermes Agent now supports asynchronous subagents, moving one of the open source agent's core orchestration tools out of the wait until it finishes pattern that has constrained multi agent work. The change lands in the existing delegate task path, the tool Hermes Agent uses to spawn child agents for parallel work. In Teknium's words, the delegate tool "no longer blocks your ...
