Nostr VPN
Private mesh networking through the separately installed nvpn CLI. Instruction-only skill; connects to relays and peers and starts a persistent daemon. Tunnels need elevated host networking privileges.
Good to know before installing
Instruction-only skill: the agent runs the separately installed nvpn CLI in the terminal (installed by the user, or by the agent from the project's latest GitHub release or an unpinned `cargo install nvpn`), which creates local device keys, connects to Nostr relays and peers, starts a persistent daemon that with elevated privileges creates tunnel interfaces and routes, and on an admin host can approve devices into the user's private network.

How to install
- Install it. Hermes asks for any API keys it needs, then asks whether to turn it on.
hermes plugins install nostr-vpn - Said no? Turn it on later:
hermes plugins enable nostr-vpn - 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).
