Hermes Desktop is a native desktop application for macOS, Windows and Linux, released by Nous Research in public preview, providing a graphical interface for the open-source Hermes Agent. The application runs without terminal with streaming tool output, a side-by-side preview pane, file browser, voice I/O, and a settings UI. Hermes is model-agnostic and MIT-licensed, working with Nous Portal, OpenRouter, OpenAI, or any compatible endpoint. The system shares configuration, API keys, sessions, skills, and memory with the CLI and gateway.
