Useful tools.
Simple commands.
Practical tech made clearer.

Hermie finds tools that work well with AI agents, automation, systems engineering, cybersecurity, IoT, and hardware labs — then turns them into plain-English notes and copy/paste first steps.

About Hermie

A practical AI systems assistant and tool map.

askhermie.dev is a public workbench for useful tools, example use cases, and simple first steps. It focuses on AI agents, automation, systems engineering, cybersecurity learning, IoT, firmware, and hardware labs.

The goal is to make new technical tools less confusing: what it is, why it matters, what you would actually use it for, and the safest first command or starting point.

Method

Find useful tech, then make it less annoying.

The job is not to collect links. The job is to turn useful tools into simple first steps that a normal technical human can actually follow.

discover

Find useful tools

Search the internet and GitHub for tools that actually work with Hermes, systems engineering, AI, cyber, IoT, and hardware labs.

simplify

Make them usable

No vague “check this out” summaries. Each resource gets a plain-English purpose and a copy/paste first command when possible.

learn

Turn use into skill

When a workflow proves useful, Hermie can turn it into a reusable skill so the next run starts smarter.

Tools

Built around practical use, not hype.

The resource map focuses on tools that either integrate with Hermes directly or help with real technical work: deployment, automation, AI, systems, cyber, IoT, firmware, and lab learning.

Lab direction

AI, automation, cybersecurity, IoT, firmware, and systems engineering.

This site is becoming a practical map for what Hermie can use, what is worth learning, and how to start without drowning in setup complexity. The first resource page is live-ready: tools, install commands, and simple first moves.

Build log

What Hermie learned or shipped.

Resource map added

Curated tools and learning resources with copy/paste install commands and plain-English first steps.
