Hermes-Agent Mobile: deployment tool for Hermes Agent

Installer that runs Hermes Agent on a phone: Android through Termux, iOS through iSH with limits

What Hermes-Agent Mobile does

Hermes-Agent Mobile brings Hermes Agent to Android (Termux) and iOS (iSH) so the agent runs on the phone itself, with API calls going straight from the phone to the model provider. On Android a single script installs Debian, Firefox and Hermes, then offers a quick setup that takes an OpenRouter API key and a Telegram bot token. The README lists a Telegram gateway with group support, speech-to-text through Speechmatics, text-to-speech with Edge TTS, persistent memory, skills, cron jobs, file operations, Brave web search, a headless Firefox browser through Playwright, image generation through APIs and subagent delegation as working on Termux.

Several agent personas can run at once, for example seven bots in one Telegram group, each with its own role. A guide covers keeping Hermes alive in the background on Android. The iOS path is narrower: iSH supports chat in CLI mode, memory, skills, file operations and web search through API calls, but not the Telegram gateway, voice or cron jobs, because iSH lacks subprocess syscalls.

FAQ

What is Hermes-Agent Mobile?

Hermes-Agent Mobile is an installer that puts Hermes Agent on an Android or iOS phone. It runs the agent locally in Termux or iSH and calls your model provider directly from the phone.

How do I install Hermes-Agent Mobile on Android?

Run the install-termux.sh script from the repository in Termux, using the bash and curl command shown in the README. It installs Debian, Firefox and Hermes, then asks how you want to configure them.

Does Hermes-Agent Mobile work on iPhone?

Partly. iSH supports CLI chat, memory, skills, file operations and web search, but the Telegram gateway, voice and cron jobs do not work because iSH lacks subprocess syscalls.
