Hermes for Pebble Index 01

Hermes for Pebble Index 01 connects the Pebble Index 01 smart ring to Hermes Agent, the AI agent I run on my own machine.

Press the button on the ring and say something, like “remind me to water the plants tomorrow at 9”, and Hermes works out whether it’s a reminder, a task, a search or a note, and acts on it.

The project itself is a tiny Cloudflare Worker that sits between the two. The Pebble app sends recordings to a webhook as a form upload; Hermes expects signed JSON. The Worker checks the ring’s token, translates the recording, signs it, and passes it to Hermes at home over Tailscale Funnel or Cloudflare Tunnel.

Index 01 ring → Pebble app → Cloudflare Worker → Hermes on your Mac

The Worker is deliberately dumb:

  • No AI, no storage – it doesn’t call a model or keep anything. All the intelligence lives in Hermes, where my memory, skills and tools already are

  • Nothing logged – only status codes and timing, never what you said

  • Fails safe – if Hermes is unreachable, the recording stays in the Pebble app

One thing worth thinking about: anything the ring transcribes becomes instructions to an agent that may have access to your computer, including garbled speech or someone else talking nearby. The setup guide tells Hermes to treat memos as untrusted and to ask for confirmation before anything destructive, but the real control is which tools you give that route.

It deploys to Cloudflare in one click. Check out the project on GitHub.
