Hermes Go

Your AI agent, in your pocket.

A native mobile client for your Hermes Agent. For self-hosted setups, one prompt configures basic auth, binds port 9119, detects Tailscale, and hands you your connection details. Hermes Cloud connects through its portal.

Bots Mode brings named AI teammates to your phone — assign work from any chat with @, keep each teammate’s conversation isolated, and schedule routines for them.

v1.0.11 · Android APK · Closed Source · Zero Telemetry

What is Hermes Go?

Hermes Go is a native Android client for Hermes Agent — self-hosted or Hermes Cloud. It is not a chat wrapper — it is the full agent in your hand:

• Live streaming — reasoning rows, tool timelines, and markdown as they happen
• Voice — dictate, hear replies, hands-free conversation loop
• Artifacts — images, audio, and HTML previews inline in chat
• Full control — approvals, sudo, secrets, queue, steer, stop
• Deep visibility — health, analytics, logs, ops console, config editor
• Your server, your data — connects direct to your server over LAN or Tailscale, or via Hermes Cloud for portal-managed agents

Closed source. The app is distributed as a signed APK. No telemetry, no analytics, no tracking. Self-hosted connections go directly to your server; Hermes Cloud connections use Hermes Cloud.

💙 Built on Hermes Agent by Nous Research — thank you for making this possible!
