What Is It

Hermex is a native iOS client (SwiftUI, 1127★, by uzairansaruzi) that acts as a mobile cockpit for a self-hosted Hermes Agent. It is not a WebView wrapper — it talks to the upstream hermes-webui server (MIT) over HTTPS. Free on the App Store (id6767006319), no IAPs, no ads, no analytics: the app only talks to your server.

Requirements: iOS 18+, iPhone; you first deploy hermes-webui and expose it over Tailscale or a Cloudflare Tunnel with HTTPS.

Hermes Integration

• Talks to nesquena/hermes-webui (default port 8787, SSE streaming, HMAC-signed cookie auth);
• Production access via Cloudflare Tunnel (recommended) or Tailscale; the Tailscale 100.64.0.0/10 range is allowed to use plain HTTP;
• In the app, enter the server URL + password (HERMES_WEBUI_PASSWORD) and connect.

Features (v1)

• Native streaming chat (SSE) with visible thinking / tool-call details
• Model, reasoning-effort, profile, and workspace switching
• Session management (create/rename/delete/pin/archive/move) and Projects
• Cron tasks (read-only), Skills browse/search, workspace file browser with syntax highlighting
• Memory and usage-insights read-only dashboards; SwiftData offline cache of recent sessions

Usage Tips

• Get hermes-webui running before installing the app; HTTPS is a production requirement;
• Remote-access priority: Tailscale > Cloudflare Tunnel > bare port (never expose the latter to the public internet);
• Great for “out and about, reply to a few messages, glance at task progress” use.

Who It’s For

iPhone users, self-hosting Hermes enthusiasts, and anyone who wants a native mobile experience rather than a browser tab.
