The home base for your Hermes Agent.

Kira runs at your place – on your Windows PC or Linux server – and turns Hermes Agent into a workspace: chat, approvals, trading analysis, coding teams, calendar and your AI subscriptions at a glance. On your PC and on your phone.

Not available for download yet – Kira is coming soon.

Everything Hermes does for you, in one place.

Hermes Agent can do a lot – Kira keeps you on top of it and lets you steer what it does with a few clicks.

In the morning you know what’s coming.

“Your day” on the home page sums up what matters today. If you like, Hermes writes the briefing and sends it to your phone in the morning.

  • Appointments from Google Calendar – create, edit, delete; Hermes adds them when you ask
  • What Hermes gets done today and what’s waiting for you
  • Watchlist, next price alert, costs and quota

Trading analysis by your own rules.

You decide what an analysis looks like – timeframes, what matters, your risk rules, the output format. Every analysis profile is a Hermes skill. Kira computes the market data first, so Hermes doesn’t make up prices or zones.

  • Market structure, EMA 21/50/200, RSI, ATR, volume profile, unfilled volume zones, funding and open interest
  • In chat, in the background or scheduled every morning – result to your phone
  • Price alerts, trading journal and content drafts for your channel

Kira analyses and reminds you – it doesn’t place orders.

A team that builds your projects.

For coding projects Kira gives Hermes a team: an organiser drafts a master plan with you and hands the work to roles like architect, developer, tester and designer – each with its own model and reasoning effort if you like.

  • Milestones with sign-off: you decide when something is done
  • Thought of something later? The organizer adds it to the plan and Kira pushes the plan to GitHub
  • Shared rules for all projects (AGENTS.md) that the agents extend with what they learn – plus a check on GitHub on every push
  • Bugs and requests from GitHub issues: Kira reports them, the organizer adds them to the plan, every step is noted on the issue – closed after your sign-off with the release
  • Optionally one branch per milestone: GitHub checks the pull request, you sign off – Kira merges
  • Autopilot keeps going while your quota lasts
  • Files, changes, run & test and GitHub in one place

You see how much of your subscriptions is left.

Sign Hermes in with the subscriptions you already have – ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Nous Portal and more. At the top of every page Kira shows how much of the current session and the week is left and when it resets.

  • The agents know their remaining quota and plan accordingly
  • When a limit is hit, Kira pauses and resumes after the reset
  • Approvals and notifications reach your phone

Questions and answers

What is Hermes Agent?

Hermes Agent is an open-source AI agent by Nous Research that runs on your own machine. It can use tools, remember things, schedule tasks and be reached via Telegram and other channels. Kira is the interface for it.

Do I need an AI subscription?

Hermes needs a language model. You can use a subscription you already have, such as ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot or Nous Portal, or enter an API key from a provider. You can combine several – one for coding and another for images, for example.

Which systems does Kira run on?

Windows 10 and 11, and Linux with Python 3.10 or newer – a mini PC, a Linux NAS or a rented server, for example. On Linux Kira can run as a service and starts again by itself after reboots. macOS hasn’t been tested yet. On your phone you use the browser.

Does Kira trade on its own?

No. Kira computes market data, Hermes analyses it by your rules, and you get alerts and reports. Kira doesn’t place orders. Analyses are not investment advice.

Can several people share one installation?

Kira is built as a single-seat system: one installation with its own Hermes and your own subscriptions. Anyone who wants to use Kira sets up their own installation.

When can I download Kira?

As soon as it’s ready. The download and updates will then be available on this page.

Is Kira part of Nous Research?

No. Kira is an independent project and not affiliated with Nous Research. Kira uses Hermes Agent as it is – through its API and its command line.
