Hermes Chrome Connector

About

Control Chrome with Hermes.

Hermes can use Chrome on your computer to complete work inside websites and apps where you are already signed in.

OVERVIEW

Hermes Chrome Connector lets Hermes Agent work with your existing Chrome browser through a local companion extension.

Use it when a task depends on browser context, account state, or websites that require your existing Chrome session. Hermes can help inspect pages, summarize dashboards, open and organize tabs, test websites, fill forms, capture screenshots, and move through multi-step workflows across logged-in tools, internal apps, and external websites.

The extension connects to Hermes through a local loopback bridge at 127.0.0.1:16319. It does not work as a standalone browser tool and requires Hermes Agent plus the hermes-chrome-plugin to function.

Hermes works in dedicated tab groups so browser-based tasks stay visible and separated from your normal browsing session. Chrome control is locked by default and must be explicitly authorized in Hermes before chrome_* tools can be used.
