nvidia-app

✓ Officialv0.1.0★ 6

Tools · by NousResearch · added · updated

NVIDIA App control through its local MCP server: overlay capture and state, driver status and release notes, game optimization, and app launch. Requires NVIDIA App 11.0 or newer on Windows; the install is refused when the app is absent, and the tools appear while the app's service is running. The plugin reads the endpoint and token NVIDIA App publishes in its own McpServer server.json on every connection, so a changed port or token needs no reconfiguration. Disclosure: the tools read and change NVIDIA App settings on this machine; nothing leaves loopback.

hermes-nvidia

This repo holds two Hermes plugins, one per NVIDIA application: nvidia-app and nvidia-broadcast. Each lives in its own subdirectory as a complete portable plugin (plugin.json, mcp.json, one skill) and is installed independently.

Plugin App and minimum version Server
nvidia-app NVIDIA App 11.0.0 streamable-http on loopback; the runtime endpoint is published by the app in its McpServer server.json
nvidia-broadcast NVIDIA Broadcast 2.3.0 streamable-http on loopback; the gateway binds the first free port from 18100 and records it in %APPDATA%/nvidia-broadcast/gateway.json

Install from the repo subdirectories:

hermes plugins install NousResearch/hermes-nvidia/nvidia-app
hermes plugins install NousResearch/hermes-nvidia/nvidia-broadcast

Desktop deep link form:

hermes://plugin/install?repo=NousResearch/hermes-nvidia/nvidia-app&enable=1
hermes://plugin/install?repo=NousResearch/hermes-nvidia/nvidia-broadcast&enable=1

Windows only. The corresponding application must be installed at the minimum version or the install refuses; its tools appear while the application is running.

accent-picker✓ Official★ 300

OKLCH accent colour picker for the Hermes Desktop status bar: drag it and the whole theme retints live, with palette commands to reset to the theme default or copy the current colour. A theme-authoring tool; the colour is scratch state and is never persisted. Desktop-only (desktop/plugin.js inside the plugin SDK surface); no agent tools, hooks, middleware or env vars.

Desktop
blender✓ Official★ 300

Official Blender Lab MCP server over stdio, pinned to upstream v1.0.3, with a Blender workflow skill. Requires Blender 5.1+, its separately installed MCP add-on, Git and uv. First startup downloads Python dependencies; prepare the uv environment before connecting. Disclosure — tools execute arbitrary Python in Blender with your privileges; first start downloads the pinned Blender Lab MCP server and its Python dependencies with uv; at install Hermes looks for Blender in the standard install locations (Windows uninstall registry and Program Files, /Applications and the Steam library on macOS, PATH, flatpak, snap and Steam on Linux) and refuses the install when it is missing. Server discovery does not prove scene readiness.

Tools
claude-subscription-directsdk✓ Official★ 300

Experimental model provider that runs Hermes turns on a Claude Pro/Max subscription through the official Claude Code CLI (the Agent SDK path), so no separate API key or per-token bill. Requires the claude CLI installed and logged in; the plugin checks for it at load, in hermes model, in the pickers and before every request, and refuses cleanly with the install hint when it is missing. Disclosure — every turn is billed against your Claude subscription's Agent SDK allowance, and the provider inherits whatever account claude is logged into.
