Hermes Desktop Update: Agent Can Autonomously Control In-App Browser
Teknium · x · 2026-08-06
Nous Research's Hermes Desktop app has introduced a new built-in browser feature. Users can now instruct the Agent to open any webpage, such as Reddit or Hacker News, which will then appear as a tab directly next to the chat interface.
The Agent can fully control and perceive the loaded webpage content, allowing users to ask questions about the site they are both viewing. Everything happens seamlessly within the Desktop client.
