A hosted Hermes Agent over iMessage: connect Google and other tools by link, hand off work by text, nothing to install
iHermes is an AI agent you reach on iMessage. To start, create an account. It reaches out on a schedule.
How iHermes works
iHermes is Hermes run for you. Hermes is listed here as a self-hosted agent; iHermes says on its front page that it makes the agent reachable through iMessage without installing or configuring it, the same relationship OpenClaw has with its hosted sibling. You text its number, it sends a link when it needs a tool connected, and the website holds connections, skills and anything too long for a thread.
What it does is the inbox-and-calendar set: a morning brief of what needs attention and what you owe people, open commitments found across conversations, reminders that arrive by text, and investigations across connected tools and the web that end in a recommendation. Its privacy policy is short and specific about Google: Gmail is read-only and it says it does not send, delete or modify mail through that connection; Calendar is a separate connect with write access for the reminders it creates.
What is not published: who runs it, a price beyond free, a model provider, and the phone number itself, which appears only after signing up. The privacy policy names a support address and no company.
