Hermes Mobile
Native Android companion app for your Hermes AI agent.
---
## Overview
**Hermes Mobile** is the native Android client for [Hermes Agent](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com). It connects securely to your local Hermes gateway (REST API and WebSocket TUI Gateway) over LAN, giving you pocket control over your AI assistant.
---
## Features
- **Real-Time Chat:** Message your agent with Room-backed local database history.
- **System Config:** Manage active profiles, installed skills, plugins, and LLM model selections.
- **Operations:** Stream and filter live logs, manage cron jobs, edit environment keys, and test webhooks.
- **Gateway Status:** Monitor WebSocket connection, MCP servers, and messaging channel status.
- **Productivity:** View and manage tasks via integrated Kanban boards and track agent milestones.
- **Modern UX:** Native Material You design supporting dynamic color theming, scroll-aware TopBar, and pull-to-refresh.

## Quick Start
### Prerequisites
- **JDK 21+** (required for Kotlin compilation and the Gradle toolchain)
- **Android Studio** (Ladybug+) or a **Nix** development environment
### Build & Deploy
1. **Clone the repository:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Hy4ri/hermes-mobile.git
cd hermes-mobile
```
2. **Build the debug APK:**
```bash
./gradlew assembleDebug
```
3. **Install on your emulator/device:**
```bash
adb install app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk
```
*Note: For release builds, ensure keystore environment variables (`KEYSTORE_PATH`, `KEYSTORE_PASSWORD`, `KEY_ALIAS`, `KEY_PASSWORD`) are configured, or let the GitHub Actions release workflow handle it on tag push (`v*`).*

## Authentication
Once the app is installed, you need to point it at your Hermes gateway. The app auto-detects which auth mode the dashboard is using — just fill in the fields it shows.
### 1. Start the dashboard
On your host machine, start the dashboard:
```bash
hermes dashboard # loopback (127.0.0.1:9119) — no auth needed
hermes dashboard --host 0.0.0.0 # LAN — requires auth
```
For LAN access, configure credentials in `~/.hermes/config.yaml`:
```yaml
dashboard:
basic_auth:
username: admin # pick your own
password: hermes # pick your own
```
### 2. Connect the app
Tap **Sign in** on the landing screen and enter the dashboard host and port. The app probes the dashboard and reveals the fields you need:
| Auth mode | When | What you fill |
|-----------|------|---------------|
| **Token only** | Dashboard on same machine (loopback) | **Token** — grab from `~/.hermes/dashboard-token.txt` or `~/.hermes/.env` (`HERMES_DASHBOARD_SESSION_TOKEN`). The app can also auto-extract it from the dashboard page |
| **Basic auth** | Dashboard on LAN with password gate | **Username** + **Password** (default `admin` / `hermes`). The app logs in, gets a session cookie, and mints a WebSocket ticket automatically |
> The app communicates over plain HTTP — it's designed for **trusted local networks only**. Do not expose your Hermes gateway to untrusted networks.
### Connection profiles
Have multiple gateways? Switch between them in **Settings → Connection profiles**. Each profile stores its own host, port, and token — just tap to swap.
### Pairing (admin)
The **Pairing** screen lets you approve or revoke agents and services that are trying to connect to your gateway, such as Telegram or Discord sessions.
