Hermes Agent Android

Hermes agents running on Android Termux, connected to ChatGPT Codex 5.6-Sol. This fork modifies the hermes-provided web server so that it works on an Android web browser. Self-hosted, on-premise.

Comment

Inspiration

I was able to run Pi Agent and OpenClaw on my Android, all that was left to test was Hermes.

What it does

Runs full Hermes agent on Android from a web browser using Termux app.

How we built it

Configured to run on device using chatgpt codex to figure out the wiring.

Challenges we ran into

The initial xterm js was unusable and the UI was designed without mobile experience in mind. ChatGPT Codex was used to clean up the UI to provide a more Termux like experience from the web browser, with added conveniences such as enabling speech to text with the Google keyboard.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I have built 3 apps with Hermes agent so far, and the results are incredible. The quality is much better than OpenClaw or Pi agent alone.

What we learned

Hermes is very resource intensive on a phone and it quickly fills up memory. It can do so much, but it's easy to overdo it, and accidentally using up all the available tokens. Remember to start new sessions rather than infinite compactions.

What's next for Hermes Agent Android

Improving upon my experiences with Pi Agent and OpenClaw to make Hermes the my go to on device agent software. Also, connecting a local llama cpp server to it for full sovereign AI computing.
