# Iris × Hermes — Implementation Reference Library
|
||
|
||
A coder-facing reference library for building a **native Android + Desktop
|
||
experience** for [hermes-agent](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent),
|
||
connected through a **gateway platform plugin**.
|
||
|
||
This folder is the single source of truth for *what to build and why*. Read it
|
||
top-to-bottom once, then use the numbered docs as a lookup while implementing.
|
||
|
||
> ⚠️ **READ FIRST — two hard rules**
|
||
> 1. **`hermes-agent/` (sibling of this folder) is a read-only research
|
||
> reference. It must NEVER be committed, pushed, or shipped.** It is
|
||
> git-ignored at the repo root. We only *install* our plugin into a live
|
||
> hermes install (`~/.hermes/plugins/`); we never modify hermes core.
|
||
> 2. **ADB is installed and a device is connected** (`a5ca2a4b`, Xiaomi MIX 2S,
|
||
> Android 10 / API 29). Use it to install/launch/debug the app on-device.

## The three deliverables (one monorepo)
|
||
|
||
1. **`gateway-plugin/`** — a Python hermes **platform plugin** named `android`.
|
||
Runs inside the `hermes gateway` process. Opens a WebSocket server the apps
|
||
connect to. Implements the full `BasePlatformAdapter` contract. **Zero new
|
||
Python dependencies, zero hermes-core changes.**
|
||
2. **`app/androidApp`** — native Kotlin + Jetpack Compose client.
|
||
3. **`app/desktopApp`** — Kotlin + Compose Multiplatform client that *shares*
|
||
the Android app's code and is "tweaked" for a big screen.
|
||
|
||
The Android and Desktop clients live in **one Compose Multiplatform Gradle
|
||
project** (`app/`) with a shared KMP module (`app/shared`).
