Why it matters
Live viewing and takeover make remote agents easier to supervise through login and CAPTCHA steps, but Nous' docs say separate bot screens do not isolate bots from the shared host, files or network.
Nous Research added a Bot Screen feature to Hermes Desktop on September 23rd, letting users watch an agent operate a browser or terminal on a remote machine and take over its screen when a task needs human input. The company described the feature in a post on X, alongside a walkthrough by tonbi (@tonbistudio).
