EmpirioLabs AI Media
EmpirioLabs AI backends for Hermes' image_generate, video_generate and text_to_speech tools (backend `empiriolabs` for image_gen.provider, video_gen.provider and tts.provider): image generation and editing, text-to-video and image-to-video, and text-to-speech, with models and voices from the live EmpirioLabs AI catalog. Submitted by EmpirioLabs AI.
Good to know before installing
Registers three backends and nothing else (no tools, hooks, commands or threads); when one is selected and its tool is called, the prompt, source images or text to speak go to https://api.empiriolabs.ai/v1 (or EMPIRIOLABS_BASE_URL) with EMPIRIOLABS_API_KEY, read through Hermes' secret scope, and each call is billed to that EmpirioLabs AI account with no Hermes approval prompt; it reads the model catalog (GET /v1/models), polls GET /v1/jobs/{id} while a generation runs (videos up to 15 minutes by default), downloads the generated files from the returned URLs into Hermes' cache (the key is never sent to them), and reads a local image file only when the agent asks to edit one.
From the plugin's catalog listing.
How to install
- Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs (this one needs
EMPIRIOLABS_API_KEY), then asks whether to turn it on.hermes plugins install empiriolabs-media - Said no? Turn it on later:
hermes plugins enable empiriolabs-media - Restart Hermes so it loads the plugin.
Some plugins also need a sign-in or settings: see Full setup & settings. Memory plugins ask whether to become your memory provider instead. Steps follow the official plugins guide (opens in a new tab).
