A screen recording of the Hermes app. The "HERMES AGENT" start screen is on the left, and a browser pane on the right shows the Amazon home page, not signed in.
At 0:02
The view zooms in on the chat box. The user types a request asking Hermes to log into Amazon in the in-app browser.
At 0:07
The message is sent and the chat box shows a stop button while Hermes works. The view zooms back out to the full window with the Amazon page.
At 0:14
A Hermes dialog opens over the page: "Save your www.amazon.com login?" It explains that the login is encrypted on this machine and filled into the page without the model ever seeing the password.

A placeholder email, "test@test.com", is typed into the "Email or username" field.
At 0:19
A password is typed into the "Password" field and shows only as masked dots. A note below points to Settings, Passwords & Logins for managing saved logins.

The pointer rests over the "Don't save" button, next to "Save & sign in", as the video ends.

Hermes signs in to websites with logins from its encrypted vault, 1Password or Bitwarden, and the model never sees the password. Codes from a saved authenticator key are filled for you, and every card fill asks first.

🚨 HERMES CAN LOG INTO YOUR ACCOUNTS WITHOUT EVER SEEING YOUR PASSWORDS. 🔐🔥No passwords pasted into chat. No credentials exposed to the AI model.Here's how it works:

Secure Login Prompts

When Hermes encounters a login page, it can request your credentials through a private, masked prompt. They're stored in an encrypted vault and filled directly into the website.

1Password & Bitwarden

Already have your passwords saved? Hermes can use your existing logins from either password manager once its CLI is installed and unlocked.

Two-Factor Authentication

Hermes can automatically enter codes from saved authenticator keys or privately prompt you for verification codes.

Payment & Address Autofill

Hermes can fill saved addresses and payment details during checkout, with approval required before filling card information.Secure logins aren't brand-new to Hermes, but they're one of the standout capabilities highlighted in v0.22.0, The Threshold Release.If you missed this when it first landed, it's definitely worth another look. 🔥
