* fix(chat): make search bar clickable by giving ChatMessageList a vertical layout The search bar (AnimatedVisibility) and the message LazyColumn were emitted as siblings with no container. The call site is a Box, which overlays children — so the LazyColumn rendered on top of the search bar, intercepting every pointer event. The bar stayed visible but was dead (nothing inside clickable: input, nav arrows, close). Wrap ChatMessageList's children in a Column so the bar occupies real layout space above the list; the LazyColumn now takes weight(1f) and scrolls independently. Fixes #490. * refactor(chat): simplify search-list LazyColumn modifier Use fillMaxWidth().weight(1f) instead of fillMaxSize().weight(1f) inside the new Column — weight already claims the remaining vertical space, so fillMaxSize was redundant/contradictory (Sourcery review nit). Note: the Sourcery 'use LocalHermesStatusColors' suggestion on the search bar Surface is a false positive — that rule covers SEMANTIC status colors (success/warning/error/info) only. surfaceContainerLow/outline are neutral Material surface chrome, not status colors; LocalHermesStatusColors does not even expose them. The corresponding status dot correctly uses StatusRed.
Hermes Mobile
Native Android companion app for your Hermes AI agent.
Overview
Hermes Mobile is the native Android client for Hermes Agent. 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
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Hy4ri/hermes-mobile.git cd hermes-mobile - Build the debug APK:
./gradlew assembleDebug - Install on your emulator/device:
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:
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:
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.
