Thank you Jake Van Clief and David McDermott for having me, and David Vogel for the Hermes assist.

This one is ICM in practice. I open my own Hermes and walk every layer of its memory, live: the built-in memory files, session history, skills and the curator, the memory provider I host myself, and the ICM workspace that holds the job itself.

The part I think this room will care about: in my workspace, every folder carries a small AGENTS.md router that points to a CONTEXT.md contract. Hermes loads AGENTS.md on its own. It doesn't load CONTEXT.md, so the router is what makes sure the contract gets read. Small router, real instructions 1 step away.

ICM is why this system holds together, and Hermes is what walks it.
