What you'll learn

Find your way into Hermes through the desktop app

Follow an agent’s tool activity, inspect files and manage sessions, skills and settings from the desktop app.

Turn Hermes into your factory engine

Connect context, skills and scheduled work, and learn when a local setup needs an always-on remote runtime.

Start with a workflow you can actually adopt

Choose a repeatable task, give the agent access and define a result you can check before expanding the workflow.

Why this topic matters

Hermes Desktop brings conversations, files, skills and settings into one app. Tony shows how he uses Hermes as a factory engine and helps others adopt it: choosing work, providing context and access, scheduling tasks and checking results. Drawing on his own setup, he will help you choose a first workflow that is small enough to understand and useful enough to keep.
