# systemd unit — Hermes Agent (interactive CLI / headless agent)
#
# Install:
# sudo cp hermes-agent.service /etc/systemd/system/
# sudo systemctl daemon-reload
# sudo systemctl enable --now hermes-agent
#
# This unit runs the Hermes CLI in headless / non-interactive mode, meaning the
# agent loop stays alive but does not present a TUI. It is appropriate for
# dedicated VPS deployments where you want the agent always running and
# accessible via the messaging gateway or API server.
#
# If you only want the messaging gateway, use hermes-gateway.service instead.
# Running both units simultaneously is safe — they share ~/.hermes by default.
