Hermes Desktop Bot Screen: Live Visual Streaming & Takeover

Nous Research shipped Bot Screen for Hermes Desktop. You can now stream any bot’s screen (browser, terminal, apps) in real time, watch the agent work live, take control for 2FA/CAPTCHA/login steps, then hand the session back seamlessly. Works for remote/always-on gateways. Full docs and a detailed 5-min walkthrough by @tonbistudio available.

Hermes Agent v0.22.7: Opt-in Lead Bot Routing for Group Chats

Nous Research released Hermes Agent v0.22.7 (Nov 3). The standout feature is opt-in lead routing in Desktop Group Chats. Previously, any message that named nobody woke every bot in the room. Now a designated lead bot can read the message and hand it to the right agent. Cron jobs can also post directly into rooms and wake only @mentioned bots. Full curated notes are deferred to v0.23.0; this is a patch roll-up of ~174 PRs.
