# Hermes ↔ Grok Bot operator manual
Wire an existing [Nous Research Hermes Agent](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent) into the Grok Bot app over a private Tailscale net. Hermes stays the brain. Grok Bot is the front door.
This repo is the operator write-up. The comms code lives upstream:
- Bridge: https://github.com/shagghiesuperstar/hermes-grok-bridge
- SSH Relay template: https://x.ai/bot/NVF3Rx9T7jkQPsqYjeDn-
- API Fleet template: https://x.ai/bot/5KLpaL-JIM2q629kbTh5L
- Fleet Ops template: https://x.ai/bot/rzq0UV2MmBsvVR1EspZE-
## Start here
1. Read [MANUAL.md](MANUAL.md) (full TOC).
2. Pick **SSH Relay** if Hermes is Desktop-primary (no gateway).
3. Pick **Native API (:8642)** if the gateway + API server are already up and you want parallel fleet asks.
4. Add identity bots per host. Optional: one Chief of Staff + Fleet Ops.
## Hard rules
- Tailscale only. No Funnel. No public bind on `:8642`.
- Never commit `API_SERVER_KEY`, SSH private keys, or vault tokens.
- Do not let Grok write Hermes memory plugins (Hindsight, Graphiti, Omega, MEMORY.md) unless you have an explicit memory plan.
- Account-scoped MCP is visible to every Grok Bot on the account. Confine identity bots in their system prompt.
## Clone
```bash
