Hermes Agent

A private, single-user AI productivity assistant that works with your own Google account.

What this application does

Hermes Agent is a personal automation assistant. It runs locally for one user — its owner — and connects to that user's Google account so the assistant can help with everyday knowledge work: triaging and summarizing email, tracking commitments and deadlines, preparing for meetings, and drafting documents and spreadsheets on request.

It is not a public service, it has no other users, and it is not offered commercially. There is no sign-up and no third party can access it.

Why it requests Google account access

Every permission below exists to perform an action the owner explicitly asks for. The application never reads data it is not being asked about.

PermissionWhat it is used for
Gmail — read Search and read messages so the assistant can summarize an inbox, surface time-sensitive mail, or find a specific thread.
Gmail — send Send a reply or a new message, only when the owner explicitly requests it.
Gmail — modify Apply or remove labels and change read state, so triage actions requested by the owner actually persist.

Drive Find, read, and organize files the owner references.
Sheets Read and write spreadsheets, for example when the owner asks for a table of tracked items or a budget to be updated.
