Dev builds a Hermes Agent that runs fully on-device inside an Android phone
alexcovo_eth · x · 2026-10-06
A developer demonstrated a Hermes Agent (from Nous Research) living entirely on an Android phone — no laptop, no server — built as a native app running on-device via Termux (repo: hermes-mobile-app).
Demo highlights:
- The agent "thinks" inside the phone's Dynamic Island
- It asks for confirmation before running risky commands
- It builds live 3D apps and Canvas, and remembers what the user tells it
A 2-minute demo video and open-source repo included — an interesting example of fully on-device mobile agents.
