Descriptions:
I switched from Telegram to Hermes Desktop — and it changed how I run my AI agents. In this video I show you how to set up Hermes Desktop, connect it to a local LLM, deploy it on a VPS so it runs 24/7, and use the remote gateway, profiles, sub-agents, and cron blueprints.

Why I made this video
I used to control Hermes mostly through Telegram. It worked — I could trigger
tasks and check results from my phone. But once you’re running multiple
sessions and agents, Telegram becomes a mess. Links and files get buried, and
you can’t find anything.
Hermes Desktop fixed that. It’s not just another chat interface — it’s a proper
control center for your agents. Profiles, sessions, artifacts, sub-agents,
live previews, and cron blueprints all in one place. In this video I’ll
convince you why it’s worth switching, and walk you through the full setup
including running it on a VPS so it never goes offline.
