FROM DOWNLOAD TO RESULT
You start by doing
The ZIP includes the reader, reference PDFs and files for each route. Extract the folder and open index.html. You can also read it from a USB drive without setting up a server.
Choose your model
Connect a provider you already use. The guide distinguishes account login, API access and local models.
Complete a real task
Try the Faro exercise. See what Hermes delivered, where to review it and what to do if the first attempt fails.
HERMES DESKTOP AT THE CENTRE
A visible team.
Work you can review
Talk with your bots inside Desktop, inspect their individual work and switch models when the task calls for it. The guide shows you how to build and supervise that journey.
If your hardware supports local models, Hermes helps you see what fits. Otherwise you can still use Desktop, providers, voice, tools and automation.

HERMES AGENT / TECHNICAL PROFILE
Your computer can become
your AI infrastructure
Start in Desktop with a model you already use. If your hardware can run a local model, Hermes can download and run it there too. Switch models to fit the work.
Know what fits before downloading
Hermes detects GPU and RAM, manages llama.cpp, estimates which models fit and selects an appropriate build. You can also search Hugging Face models while Hermes manages memory and context as you work.
Every specialist has a place
In Desktop, each bot can have its own model, memory, skills and chat. Review individual work, bring bots into a group and delegate tasks to subagents.
Move from chat to routine
Memory, voice, browser, tools, MCP, plugins, connectors, cron and Kanban extend what Hermes can do. Work on your computer or run an installation on a server when you need continuity.
Local work depends on your hardware. Nous documents 8 GB VRAM for smaller models and 16 GB or more for 27–35B models. Actual speed and fit depend on the model, context and your machine. Offline work only applies when your workflow uses no remote tools or services.
The Local Models interface is enabled in Canary builds; other Desktop builds need the --local launch flag. The guide shows how to prepare, run and check this path. Read the official documentation ↗

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Short answers
Do I need a GPU?
No. Route 1 starts in Desktop with a provider. Local models are optional and Hermes helps assess what your computer can run.
Is this only a PDF?
No. You get an offline reader, copyable and downloadable files, and two reference PDFs. Each practical route explains the expected result and what to check if it fails.
Does it work from a USB drive?
The reader and materials open without a server. Installing Hermes, connecting accounts and downloading models still require their own steps. Cloud models require connectivity.
Is this an official Nous Research guide?
No. It is an independent publication by Cosas Agénticas. Get Hermes Agent from the official project.
