## Description

Hermes-Relay links your self-hosted Hermes AI agent to Android phones and desktop computers. The Android app provides streaming chat, hands-free voice, and complete agent management — models, keys, skills, and profiles — in a native mobile interface. An optional plugin adds terminal access, notifications, desktop tools, enhanced voice, and device control (sideload builds only). The desktop CLI (Windows, macOS, Linux) lets Hermes run commands, read files, and access the screen on paired machines with explicit consent. Connections are direct and local-first; Tailscale is the recommended way to reach your agent from anywhere. The relay server is a small Python service you can run via Docker, systemd, or manually. Requires a Hermes agent with Dashboard/Gateway enabled. Licensed MIT.
