# Start Hermes Agent Stack (macOS) Bring up local agent infra end-to-end on macOS (tested on Apple Silicon, Darwin 25.x): 1. Ollama runtime (port 11434) — model server 2. hermes3:8b model loaded + warmed in RAM 3. Hermes web dashboard UI (port 9119) 4. Optional: Hermes gateway (Telegram/Slack/WhatsApp) Print final URL at end. All local. No API key. $0 cost. ## Prerequisites (must already be installed) This skill BOOTS the stack — it does not install it. Required: - **Ollama** — `/Applications/Ollama.app` or `brew install ollama` (provides `/opt/homebrew/bin/ollama` on Apple Silicon, `/usr/local/bin/ollama` on Intel) - **Hermes Agent** — installed to `~/.hermes/hermes-agent/` with `hermes` CLI on PATH at `~/.local/bin/hermes`. Official install (does both Python 3.11 via `uv` AND Node 22 LTS to `~/.hermes/node/`): ```bash curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash ``` Then `pip install hermes-agent[web]` (or `uv pip install -e ".[all,dev]"` from source) for the dashboard. - **Node 22** — bundled at `~/.hermes/node/` by the official installer. Only need standalone `fnm` if you skipped the installer. - ~5 GB free disk for `hermes3:8b` If any are missing, the skill reports the gap and stops — do NOT attempt to install Ollama or other system tooling unless the user explicitly authorizes. **Current upstream version: v0.15.0 (May 16, 2026)** — repo: https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent ### Install gotch
