Mercury for Hermes Agent

Mercury is the mobile command center for your own Hermes Agent server. See what Hermes and its workers are doing, step in when they need you, talk to it on the go, and keep your agent in your pocket.

ARGUS: SEE EVERYTHING HERMES DOES
• Argus is our read-only plugin for Hermes, made for Mercury. Install it from your phone in one tap
• Follow work from every Hermes process in one view: chats, the CLI, Telegram, cron jobs and Kanban runs
• Get a notification when a cron job finishes or fails
• Notice at once when a worker stops without a result
• Argus only watches. It never approves, stops or changes anything, and stores nothing outside your server

CHAT
• Streamed replies with Markdown, tables and highlighted code, laid out for a phone screen
• Tap links to open them, see token usage, context and cost of every session
• Start a new session with one tap. Long-press to pick the agent, model and reasoning effort
• Attach photos and files
• Steer a running task or queue the next message

APPROVALS AND LIVE STATUS
• Approve or deny commands where they appear, with the full command to review
• While Hermes works, the status bar shows the task, its workers and progress
• Answer questions and approve right from the notification

VOICE
• Live voice: talk with Hermes in real time through GPT-Live, opened by your own Hermes. Interrupt it any time, also with the screen off. The OpenAI key stays on your server and OpenAI bills your own account
• Meet Ptera, the face of your agent: a glass sphere with obsidian feathers that floats while you talk, listens, thinks and answers with you, and shows at a glance when Hermes waits for your approval
• Local voice: your phone listens and reads the answers aloud, speech stays on your phone and your Hermes
• Hands-free mode with large controls for when your phone is in a mount
• Record a voice message and let Whisper on your own Hermes turn it into text

KANBAN
• Your Hermes boards as a real mobile surface: columns, filters, search
• Create, move and block tasks, follow runs and comments

ADMIN
• Health, logs, models and profiles, skills, MCP servers and cron jobs of your Hermes
• Environment: manage .env variables and API keys, values hidden until you tap
• Usage: tokens, sessions and cost per day and per model
• Restart the gateway or update Hermes from your phone

HELP BUILT IN
• A short introduction on first start shows you around
• A searchable guide inside the app, which you can also install on your Hermes as a skill, so Hermes can answer questions about Mercury

STRAIGHT TO YOUR SERVER
• Mercury talks only to the Hermes server you run. No messenger, no cloud relay, no account with us. Only Live voice, if you turn it on, connects to OpenAI with the key on your Hermes
• Use it at home or over your own VPN. Credentials stay encrypted in the Android Keystore
• We never see your chats, files, sessions or voice

UP NEXT
• Team voice call: talk to Hermes and its specialist agents in one conversation. Each agent gets its own face, with two more figures, Petasos and Talaria, already in the works
• Pick a figure for every agent profile

ONE PRICE, NOTHING ELSE
• One-time purchase. No subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads, no tracking
• Send feedback and feature requests from inside the app, anonymous and encrypted. Worked out an idea with an agent? Attach it as a Markdown file

REQUIREMENTS
• A self-hosted Hermes Agent server with its dashboard enabled, reachable from your phone
• Tested with Hermes Agent 0.22.2. Live voice needs Hermes 0.21 or newer and an OpenAI API key on your Hermes
