A home server, iMessage and Hermes wired into one workflow. Text a request from anywhere and the agent at home does the work and texts back the result.
Texting is the lowest-friction way to hand off a job, and an agent on a home server is always on and always reachable.
Use /loop to set Hermes Agent checking a file or process repeatedly at your chosen interval. It reruns the same prompt inside your current chat without you asking again. Stop it anytime by closing the chat or typing a new command.
