Agent operations

How do I keep AI agent hosting costs low when agents are idle most of the time?

Keep idle AI agent costs under control by measuring runtime activity, separating active work from dormant tenants, and making lifecycle, schedule, release, and access decisions explicit. Hermes Hub provides the operating layer for tenant lifecycle and usage evidence, so teams can review what is running before changing runtime policy.

A bounded cost-control process

Cost control starts with evidence and lifecycle ownership, not an unsupported promise of a fixed savings percentage.

Measure activity

Review run history, token usage, request counts, and runtime-impact signals where available.

Separate tenants

Identify which tenant runtimes, schedules, and agents are active, dormant, or blocked.

Control lifecycle

Use explicit release, restart, access, and scheduling procedures for managed runtimes.

Review the trade-off

Balance idle cost, wake-up behavior, response needs, and operational recovery before changing policy.
