Hermes Agent Tutorials & Use Cases

Currently Playing: Access Your Hermes Agent From Anywhere (Tailscale + Termius + tmux)

Tailscale, Termius, and tmux — three tools that get your Hermes agent off one machine and accessible from anywhere with zero public ports exposed.

Full setup walkthrough end-to-end: Tailscale for a private peer-to-peer Wireguard mesh with magic DNS (free for personal use, no port forwarding, no public IP), Termius as the iOS/Android SSH client that doesn't make you want to throw your phone away (mosh, port forwarding, file browser, AI autocomplete in the free tier), and tmux so your sessions survive dropped SSH connections, closed laptops, and bad Wi-Fi. Demo at the end starts a research task on the PC, walks away, and reattaches the same live tmux session from an iPhone over the tailnet.
