Hermes Desktop et Gemma 4 12b, système IA local et gratuit !

Hermes Desktop has just been released and transforms Hermes Agent (Nous Research) into a true graphical AI assistant, persistent and open source, usable on macOS, Windows, and Linux. In this video, I give you a complete tour of the app and show you how to combine it with Gemma 4 12b via LMStudio for a 100% local and free setup that's awesome. What you'll see in the demo: Hermes Desktop launch and concept: an AI agent that chats, acts via tools, maintains context, and can be controlled from multiple interfaces Model configuration: choice of provider and model (Nous Portal as a simple option, or OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, OpenRouter, Ollama, OpenAI-compatible endpoint) Free local setup: Gemma 4 12b running in LMStudio, connected to Hermes Desktop via an OpenAI-compatible endpoint: a powerful combination with no subscription, no cloud Interface: streaming chat, tool activity panel, side view to monitor the agent's actual actions Testing on a local folder: file analysis, generating a summary, actions, and a work plan File modification: creating/correcting a document directly in the folder to demonstrate read/write/organization Memory: saving a preference and retrieving elements from previous sessions (continuity + historical search) Creating a skill: transform A repeatable procedure (e.g., preparing a live tech briefing) becomes a reusable skill. Automations: scheduled tasks / cron logic (daily monitoring, automatic reporting, etc.). Multi-platform: the same agent can be used from desktop, CLI/terminal, gateway, and messaging platforms (Slack, Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, email) with sessions, memory, and skills. Advanced mode: connection to a remote backend is possible, but I recommend starting locally (remote/WebSocket connections are even more sensitive). Why it's interesting: Accessibility: a powerful open-source agent becomes much simpler to use thanks to a true graphical interface, visible files, and observable tools. Completely free: with LMStudio and Gemma 4 12b, no subscription, no tokens, everything runs locally on your machine. Continuity: memory, session history, and skills prevent starting from scratch and allow you to build on existing workflows.
