Hermes Desktop Launches: GUI, Remote Gateway, and Shared Context
Yesterday they released Hermes Desktop for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
For several months, Hermes was an agent that studied your projects, wrote its own skills, and gradually built a model of how you work. But all of that was hidden in the terminal logs.
Now it has a full-fledged interface.
Under the hood, it’s the same agent, the same sessions, memory, and skills as in the CLI. You can start a task in the terminal, open the app, and continue from the exact same place. The context is shared; nothing gets recreated.
What the GUI gives you:
• real-time streaming of tools and reasoning
• previews of code, pages, and images alongside the chat
• an artifacts panel with all the files the agent created
• Remote Gateway for running the agent on a VPS
• managing skills, cron jobs, and profiles via the GUI instead of YAML
• voice mode, drag-and-drop files, and image generation
The most interesting feature for me is Remote Gateway. The agent can run 24/7 on a VPS for $5 a month, and you control it from your laptop as if it were running locally.
Hermes Desktop was first shown during Jensen Huang’s presentation at NVIDIA GTC, and now it’s available in a public preview version.
If you’re already using Hermes, after installing Desktop everything will be picked up automatically.
