The token swap made every control dark, but the pages themselves kept their Arco defaults — bare `padding: 20px` with components laid straight on the background. That is why the running app still read as "not the prototype" no matter how many variables were replaced: the prototype's page structure (panel / panel-h / panel-b / kv / tabs) was never built. Rather than restate that shell in each of the 25 views, it now lives in global.scss as .cy-view / .cy-panel / .cy-panel-h / .cy-panel-b / .cy-kv / .cy-tabs / .cy-tab / .cy-stack / .cy-sec-t, and the settings components share a global .settings-section + .section-title so all nine panes pick up the mono section headers at once. The per-component duplicates of those two rules were deleted. Settings is converted as the reference case: Arco's a-tabs/a-tab-pane became the underline tab strip, and the pane body sits in a panel. The URL-query sync moved to a watcher on activeTab so pane order and deep links still hold. Pane order is a contract, so it is asserted. Two tests lock the shell in place — one for the global classes and the cyan underline selected state, one for the settings structure and pane order. Without them the next edit easily slides back to bare Arco.
hermes-ui
Self-hosted web dashboard for Hermes Agent — chat, session history, skills, MCP servers, model management, IM channels, file management, and usage analytics in one browser UI.
This project is under active rebuild. Feature work is being staged phase by phase; see
docs/phases/README.mdfor the current plan.
Prerequisites
hermes-ui runs as a plain Node.js server. It does not bundle a runtime.
- Node.js
>=23 - Python with
hermes-agentinstalled
Install hermes-agent, then either put hermes on your PATH or point HERMES_BIN at the
executable:
export HERMES_BIN=/path/to/hermes
If the CLI cannot be found, the UI shows an install hint instead of failing silently.
Getting Started
npm ci --ignore-scripts
npm run build
npm start
Then open http://localhost:8648 and log in with the default credentials printed on first start.
For development with hot reload:
npm run dev
The client runs on http://localhost:8649 and the Koa server on port 8647.
Layout
packages/client Vue 3 client: views, components, Pinia stores, i18n, API helpers
packages/server Koa API, Socket.IO chat runtime, SQLite stores, Hermes integration
packages/skills Built-in skills injected into the Hermes skills directory
tests Vitest unit/integration tests and Playwright browser tests
scripts Build and repository harness scripts
docs Architecture, harness docs, and the phased build plan
Docker
docker compose up -d
The image is based on nousresearch/hermes-agent, so Python and the Hermes CLI are already
present in the container.
Configuration
| Variable | Purpose |
|---|---|
HERMES_BIN |
Path to the hermes executable. Falls back to hermes on PATH. |
HERMES_HOME |
Hermes profile directory. Used to isolate profiles. |
HERMES_WEB_UI_HOME |
Web UI state directory. Defaults to ~/.hermes-web-ui. |
HERMES_WEBUI_STATE_DIR |
Alternate override for the Web UI state directory. |
PORT |
Server port. |
The HERMES_WEB_UI_* prefixes and the ~/.hermes-web-ui data directory are kept from the
0.6.x line on purpose, so existing deployments and data directories keep working.
