The release date is a reported plan, not a promise, so judge a launch by what you can open and test yourself. ## AI Agents Reach Your Phone ### Hermes Mobile Beta: Nous Research Fills Every Slot; Full Release After Thanksgiving Is Claimed Nous Research has an official beta of its Hermes mobile app for iPhone and Android. Hermes is its open-source AI agent, a helper that can act on your behalf. Users report that the invite links are full or broken. A full release after Thanksgiving is only reported by a third party, so it is not confirmed. **What you can do:** Start from the official Nous page, not an app-store search, because several unofficial Hermes apps exist. Check that page again for new seats.

It had about 2,176 GitHub stars within a week. It is new, and an AI model writes each simulator, so check its numbers.

This guide explains how to limit that access to one folder. It also covers firmer options, such as a separate computer account. **What you can do:** Open Settings, then Developer, then Edit Config. If the file is empty, Claude has no file access. If you add a connector, limit it to one folder.
