Hermes Quill

What Hermes Quill does

Hermes Quill is a remote-control client only: all AI inference happens on your own hardware and the app contains no model. One phone can connect to several Hermes servers with isolated sessions and favorites, switch server-side profiles, and add a device by manual entry, by scanning a QR code that Hermes generates, or by pasting configuration text. The README is in Chinese.

Chat supports streaming output, Markdown with tables, code blocks and images, search across sessions or within one, and sending photos and files. Clarification questions from Hermes render as native questionnaire cards. The app also manages the server: a Tasks page lists cron jobs and logs and can trigger runs, a Models page shows provider balance and model priority, and a Skills page lists deployed skills read-only. A bot-to-bot group chat mode lets a lead bot coordinate several persona bots. The README promises no ads, no tracking SDK and no account registration, and warns against exposing port 8642 to the public internet.
