Connect Hermes Agent to your cameras.

Hermes Agent runs on your own machine and talks to you on Slack or Telegram. It is an MCP client, so Rikuy is one more server it can use.

Hermes Agent
cam_01 · Register mcp.rikuy.si/mcp

Four steps. About ten minutes.

Your cameras stay off for every agent until you turn them on. Your recorder must already be connected with the Rikuy Bridge.

    Ask on Telegram: "What do you see at the back door right now?"

What this platform allows.

Self-hosted means you run it. We do not test every version.

Rikuy checks the rules on our server, so your settings apply whatever agent you run.

Checked on our server, not in the agent.

Every camera starts off. Your schedule and days back apply. Restroom cameras can never be turned on. Every look needs a purpose and is recorded before any image leaves. Answers carry the note "Review the clip before you act."

Ask Hermes Agent like you would ask your manager.

Plain questions about the store. Hermes Agent picks the camera by what it sees, looks at the hours you allow and tells you what it found.
