A private local setup for using Hermes Agent from Windows
is already running correctly on a Linux machine with a . The goal is to use that same from a Windows laptop on the same .
The setup must stay fully private, so Discord, Telegram, or any outside relay service is not acceptable. The needed workflow includes pasting screenshots from the clipboard into chat and attaching files to a prompt.
The current workaround uses an SSH tunnel from the Windows laptop to the Linux machine’s dashboard, but that dashboard does not support pasting or attaching files in the chat. Another possible workaround is installing the full on the Windows laptop only to use and point it back to the Linux machine, but that feels indirect and not ideal.
Key points
- and a are already working on Linux.
- The Windows laptop needs to connect over the same only.
- Discord, Telegram, and other outside services do not meet the privacy requirement.
- The SSH tunnel dashboard works for access but not for clipboard screenshots or file attachments.
- Installing the full on Windows just to use may be possible, but it is an awkward workaround.
