Hermes Workspace V2 gives you a native way to talk to your Hermes AI agents online.

Chat.

Terminal.

Skills.

All in one genuinely well-designed interface.

Finally, a proper mission control for running AI agents at scale.

What Is Hermes Agent Mission Control?

Hermes Workspace V2 is the new native gateway for talking to your Hermes AI agents.

It's open-source (available on GitHub).

It runs locally or via Docker.

And it gives you one unified interface to control everything.

Previous Hermes versions (0.9 onward) had a mission control, but you didn't really get much control over speaking to the agent directly inside the chat.

Workspace V2 fixes this.

You can now chat with your agents, orchestrate sub-agents, and manage memory and skills from one place.

This is what Hermes has needed for months.

What You Get Inside Mission Control

The V2 workspace includes five key sections:

1. Chat

Talk to your Hermes agent directly in the dashboard.

No more switching between terminal and Telegram.

Real-time conversation with full context.

2. Terminal

The traditional Hermes terminal access is still there.

Use it when you want raw command-line power.

3. Memory

See exactly what Hermes remembers.

Browse the knowledge tree.

Edit entries manually if needed.

4. Skills

Manage your custom skills.

Edit prompts.

Enable/disable individual skills.

5. Inspector

Debug what's happening inside your agent.

See the reasoning process.

Troubleshoot failures faster.

Setting Up Hermes Agent Mission Control

Getting V2 running takes about 10 minutes.

Option A: Docker

docker run -p 8080:8080 hermesworkspace/v2

Option B: Local Install

Clone the repo from GitHub.

Run the install script.

Launch.

Option C: Ask Hermes to Set It Up

Launch Hermes in your terminal.

Say: "Set up Hermes Workspace V2 for me."

It'll guide you through.

Why Mission Control Matters for Serious Users

If you're running Hermes casually, the terminal is fine.

If you're running Hermes as part of a business operation, you need proper tooling.

Mission Control gives you:

This is what takes Hermes from "developer tool" to "business platform."

Practical Example
