@Xelinor thanks for your comment, I do share your concerns and I will be trying to change that as soon as possible. python311 from AUR seems like a good solution.

@y0uCeF — thanks for maintaining this package. One concern: the PKGBUILD builds against system Python (currently for me 3.14.4 on Arch/CachyOS), but upstream's scripts/install.sh and setup-hermes.sh both pin Python 3.11 via uv, and the upstream troubleshooting docs explicitly flag "not yet fully compatible with Python 3.13+" (pathlib, tiktoken pyo3 issues). Wheels build fine, but runtime failures on specific code paths will surface as hermes bugs when the real cause is the version mismatch. Simplest fix is probably to depend on python311 instead of python and have the existing /usr/bin/hermes wrapper invoke 3.11 explicitly so that it matches upstream's supported runtime. Happy to test. Thanks again!

there's a syntax error on line 69 - it should be either [ ! -d .git ] && mkdir .git or test ! -d .git && mkdir .git

@lustyrumberjack welcome to AUR. I added those optdeps and spent 2 days troubleshooting hermes dashboard css issue. It turns out, .gitignore file from AUR package was being read by Vite/Tailwind which ignored src* and generated a minimal css file. hermes's install.sh does not suffer from this since it contains .git directory which stops the upward search for .gitignore files.

I have not explored all hermes features, such as connections to whatapp/telegram/.., browser use ...etc. I will keep fixing issues as they come up.

Any contributions are welcome through co-maintaining.

After years on AUR finally made an account, thanks for your work getting this added Youcef - The dashboard is broken specifically with the CSS - To get speech working had to add 'python-faster-whisper: STT/voice-to-text support' to optdepend. Also had to install python-sounddevice from AUR. The error I was getting was "MISSING pip install faster-whisper"

The web directory has been built into the 0.9.0-2 version. Thanks for the comment. I tried the dashboard and it looks a bit weird. I wonder if I am missing something or if it should look like this.

It seems the hermes dashboard command is unusable; the web directory doesn't appear to have been copied during installation. {"error":"Frontend not built. Run: cd web && npm run build"}
