## Summary

OpenBMB welcomes Luis Poveda's MiniCPM-OCR plugin for Hermes Agent, which lets agents call the MiniCPM-OCR model for document parsing. Poveda built the plugin after finding general LLMs weak at complex documents such as physician prescriptions, and shared code on GitHub with a pull request to Nous Research's Hermes Agent repository.

> Introducing the MiniCPM-OCR plugin for Hermes Agent.
> 
> This is a problem I have experienced myself: LLMs by themselves are not always very good at OCR; sometimes I have needed another model specialized in it to solve complex document parsing.
> 
> For example, recently I have had difficulties understanding some physician recipes and other manuscripts.
> 
> This is where MiniCPM-OCR comes in. You can use the model and harness you already have to utilize a best-in-class OCR model by @OpenBMB.
