The integration allows users to select Vercel AI Gateway in the setup wizard, with live model availability and pricing, and opt-in Vercel Sandbox backend supporting node24, node22, and python3.13 runtimes.", "body_md": "[Hermes Agent](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/) can now use [Vercel AI Gateway](https://vercel.com/ai-gateway) as its inference layer and run its agent commands in an isolated [Vercel Sandbox](https://vercel.com/docs/vercel-sandbox) microVM. Access 200+ models through AI Gateway at no markup on tokens, and every request appears in your AI Gateway dashboard with the rest of your usage and spend.\n\nInstall Hermes, then pick Vercel AI Gateway in the setup wizard:\n\nThe picker pulls live model availability and current pricing from AI Gateway. For the full walkthrough, see [Configuring Hermes](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/coding-agents/hermes#configuring-hermes).\n\nThe [Vercel Sandbox](https://vercel.com/docs/sandbox) backend is opt-in. Commands run locally until you set `terminal.backend`\n\nto `vercel_sandbox`\n\n; with it enabled, agent commands run in a cloud microVM with a workspace root of `/vercel/sandbox`\n\ninstead of on your machine. The backend supports `node24`\n\n(default), `node22`\n\n, and `python3.13`\n\nruntimes. For [local development](https://vercel.com/docs/sandbox/concepts/authentication), use `VERCEL_OIDC_TOKEN`\n\n. Run `vercel link`\n\nand `vercel env pull`\n\nto get a development token.\n\nTo get started, read the [Hermes documentation](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/coding-agents/hermes) and the [Vercel Sandbox documentation](https://vercel.com/docs/sandbox), or [browse AI Gateway models](https://vercel.com/ai-gateway/models).", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/vercel-ai-gateway-and-vercel-sandbox-now-available-on-hermes-agent", "canonical_source": "https://vercel.com/changelog/vercel-ai-gateway-and-vercel-sandbox-now-available-on-hermes-agent", "published_at": "2026-08-07 19:00:00+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-08-09 13:01:55.124328+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "ai-infrastructure", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["Vercel AI Gateway", "Vercel Sandbox", "Hermes Agent", "Vercel"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/vercel-ai-gateway-and-vercel-sandbox-now-available-on-hermes-agent", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/vercel-ai-gateway-and-vercel-sandbox-now-available-on-hermes-agent.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/vercel-ai-gateway-and-vercel-sandbox-now-available-on-hermes-agent.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/vercel-ai-gateway-and-vercel-sandbox-now-available-on-hermes-agent.jsonld"}}
