Make ChatGPT less agreeable inside Hermes Agent

ChatGPT-style models can feel too willing to agree when used inside Hermes Agent. The desired behavior is closer to Claude: point out weak ideas, push back when needed, and avoid simply accepting the user’s direction.

A Claude subscription may not be usable directly inside Hermes Agent, so the practical problem is how to make an OpenAI model behave more like Claude there. A simple instruction like “push back” may not work well, because the model can stay too agreeable or start disagreeing without a good reason.

One practical suggestion is to change the Hermes Agent personality setting from friendly to concise. The relevant setup is in the Hermes Agent personality feature documentation.
