WHY HIRE TONY

The work is built in public. The session is hands-on.

You are not buying a prompt pack. You are working directly with the person configuring the machine, access boundaries, and first workflow you will use.

Tony builds local-first agent infrastructure, credential controls, and verification tooling. That practical bias carries into every session: keep the scope useful, keep control with you, and test the thing before calling it done.

Why work with Tony
Tony Simons, independent Hermes Agent consultant
Independent consulting. Direct work. Your system stays yours.

FIND YOUR PATH

Which session do you need?

Answer three questions for a recommendation, or skip straight to pricing.

Step 1 of 3.

What OS are you running?

SYSTEM TOPOLOGY

One agent. Your machine. Real output.

Hermes runs on your hardware and coordinates work across skills, secrets, and scheduled jobs. This is the kind of system we configure around a real workflow.

NODE

Hermes Core

Install, secure, configure. The agent that executes real work.

A GOOD FIT

For people who want a real setup — not a sales call.

Come with a goal, a machine or server, and a willingness to work through the details. We'll keep the session practical.

This is independent consulting for Hermes Agent. It is not official Nous Research support, and it is not a place to paste credentials into a form.

READY WHEN YOU ARE

Build the first useful thing.

Choose a session and leave with working software — or, for Strategy, a written action plan.
