Requires downloading a zip release and providing your own AI provider API keys.
Hermes Agent Desktop is a desktop application for running AI agents on Windows 11, macOS, and Linux. It connects to multiple AI model providers, including Claude, Grok, and Gemini, and can also work with local AI models. From a single desktop interface, you can have conversations with AI, set up task automation workflows, and run scheduled operations. The README describes it as targeting power users, developers, and anyone who wants an AI agent working directly on their computer. The README shows a multi-panel interface with separate views for chat, profiles, models, providers, tools, skills, schedules, a gateway, persona configuration, a kanban board, an office section, and settings. The application is designed for switching between different AI models and providers within the same interface. The README mentions complex automation workflows and local desktop integration but provides no technical detail about how those capabilities work. Installation is a download-and-run process: download a zip archive from the releases page and launch the application. Some features require API keys from the AI providers you want to connect. A troubleshooting table covers common issues like API connection failures, slow performance, models not loading, and Windows compatibility errors. The README is sparse beyond screenshots and a troubleshooting table. It notes the project is for educational and personal use only, that API keys from third-party providers may be required, and that the authors disclaim responsibility for account issues or violations of service terms. The project is licensed under MIT.
