FieldKit: Offline Plugin Lets Hermes Agent Collect Forms, Photos and GPS Without Internet
Teknium · x · 2026-11-14
Snehal Rekt built FieldKit for the Nous Research Hermes Agent Plugin Hackathon. It lets users create custom forms by chatting with Hermes and collect observations, photos, voice notes and GPS data fully offline, syncing everything once connectivity returns — Hermes can then help explore what was collected.
The motivation is unreliable internet in rural India, making the agent useful for rural researchers, students, healthcare and field workers beyond well-connected cities. The project is open-sourced on GitHub.
