Most AI agents reach production on a demo and a deadline.
The pressure to ship agentic systems is enormous, and the security bar is whatever the team had time for. "It works" becomes "it's live." We built Hermes Sovereign Runtime to prove the opposite path: an agent runtime that earns production access by passing the process, in public.
The findings were Critical. That is exactly the point.
Four Critical findings in a runtime headed for production.
Critical means exploitable with real impact. These are the findings that, missed, become the incident report six months later.
Caught before deployment, not after an incident.
The same findings discovered post-launch are a breach, a disclosure, and a remediation scramble. Discovered first, they're just engineering.
Three of them became CVEs.
Filing a CVE puts the finding on a public, permanent register. It is the difference between "we found some issues" and a claim anyone can check.
Find. File. Fix. Verify. Then — and only then — ship.
A runtime that reached production with its findings already closed — and on the record.
Ask any agent vendor for the CVEs they filed against their own runtime before launch. The answer — or the silence — tells you everything.
Put your agent through the same process.
Three ways in, matched to how close you are to shipping.
