AionUi turns Hermes into agentic OS
AionUi is a local, open-source desktop app for coordinating AI agents across an entire machine. It positions itself as the UI and control plane for everyday agent work, with built-in assistants, skills, MCP support, remote access, scheduled automation, and native office-file workflows for slides, spreadsheets, documents, and PDFs.
Hot take: this is less “yet another agent app” and more an attempt to become the operating layer where multiple agents, model providers, and task-specific assistants can coexist on one desktop.
- –The strongest angle is machine-wide orchestration: it auto-detects tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI and lets them run in parallel.
- –The product is broader than coding assistants; the office-toolkit and built-in assistants push it toward general knowledge work.
- –Remote control and cron-style automation make it feel closer to a persistent coworking environment than a chat app.
- –MCP and a skills marketplace give it a plausible extensibility story, which matters if it wants to be the default “agent shell.”
- –The main risk is complexity: the pitch is ambitious, so adoption will depend on whether the coordination layer stays simpler than the tools it replaces.
