Hermes Talk
Realtime voice for Hermes through terminal, Discord, dashboard and Desktop. Live voice mode (TALK_VOICE_MODE=live, TALK_LIVE_AUTH=subscription) connects with your own Codex OAuth session to the undocumented chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/realtime/calls endpoint, which is outside the vendor's published API terms and may change or stop working without notice.
How to install
- Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
hermes plugins install hermes-talk - Said no? Turn it on later:
hermes plugins enable hermes-talk - 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).
