Run Gemma 4 Locally in Hermes Agent (Free AI Automation + New Web UI Setup)The script explains how to combine Google’s newly released Gemma 4 12B model with Hermes Agent to run a free, local AI agent designed for agentic reasoning and automation. It shows examples built with Hermes Agent and an agentic operating system, including games, a Pomodoro timer, a color palette, and animations. Setup is demonstrated via Ollama (download Ollama, run the command to launch Hermes with Gemma 4) or through Hermes Agent’s new web UI to select Gemma 4 as the model.
