Working with my Hermes agent over a Discord call

Showcase — Projects, tools, builds, demos, GitHub repos

Sharing a tool I made that lets you talk to your Hermes agent by voice and get it to do stuff. Typing messages out got annoying, and I wanted to be able to ask it things or kick off tasks while just lying around.

Each query usually takes the agent anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes, so it's more like voice messaging than a real conversation. But it can talk you through what it's doing (verbose mode, on by default), and you can cut it off mid-sentence if you need to.

Once the basics worked I started using VerbalCoding to build VerbalCoding, so most of it was actually written by voice at this point. If you've got Hermes running 24/7 on a server or Mac mini somewhere, might be worth a try.

- Needs some setup (Discord bot etc) — there's a guide.
- Built it for myself so it's rough in places. PRs and feedback welcome.
