Connect Hermes Agent to Agent Master Key

Agent Master Key (AMK) gives Hermes Agent its own scoped, revocable key while your real provider keys stay in an encrypted vault on your Mac. AMK connects Hermes Agent as a one-click connect harness.

How it works

1. Download Agent Master Key and connect a provider (your key never leaves the Mac).
2. Open Connect an agent and pick Hermes Agent. AMK creates a scoped agent key and merges the connection into the config below (backup first).
3. Hermes reads this config at each launch — restart Hermes Desktop only if it is already running.

Config file

~/.hermes/config.yaml

The entry points at AMK's local launcher only — it never contains your provider keys or an agent key. Revoke Hermes Agent's access anytime from the AMK dashboard; revocation takes effect immediately and does not touch your other agents.
