Perpink Support
An iPhone and Mac app for chatting with your own, self-hosted Hermes Agent.
Getting started
Perpink provides no AI service of its own: it connects to a Hermes Agent instance that you run. You need:
- a Hermes Agent instance with its API server enabled;
- network access to that server from your device, for example through a private Tailscale network;
- the API key of the Hermes profile you want to use.
Open Settings in Perpink, enter the server address (for example http://hermes.example.ts.net:8642), the profile name if it isn't the default one, and its key, then tap Test connection.
Something doesn't work?
- Can't connect: check that your device can reach the server (is Tailscale on?) and that the address includes the port.
- The key is refused: each profile only accepts its own
API_SERVER_KEY; make sure the profile name and the key match. - Profile not found: named profiles require
gateway.multiplex_profilesto be on in Hermes.

En français
Perpink est une app iPhone et Mac pour discuter avec votre propre instance Hermes Agent, que vous hébergez vous-même. L'app ne fournit aucun service d'IA. Il vous faut une instance Hermes dont le serveur d'API est activé, un accès réseau à ce serveur (par exemple via Tailscale) et la clé d'API du profil à utiliser, à saisir dans les Réglages de l'app.
