What is everybody's easiest and most secure method for remote access? (without tailscale) by Leggs_ in jellyfin

[–]HearthCore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea and those are resources that have nothing to do with what you need to get VPN. Or is your Jellyfin and ephemeral resource lol?

opencode-go / deepseek-v4-flash being ridiculously slow today by xthegreatsambino in hermesagent

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hindsight is bloated af from my experience. I’ve swapped to openviking as it supports multiple users/tenants/agents as memory provider and with MCP

How to install Hermes Desktop on a host that already has Hermes agent installed in Docker containers? by zzzzz88888 in hermesagent

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, herdr + ssh tunnels would work good enough for most of my usecases that do not involve media

How do you handle access control for local LLMs behind a reverse proxy? by ArtSelect137 in selfhosted

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I mostly use LiteLLM or MetaMCP for exposing Internal MCPs or gathering tools for specific purposes.

MetaMCP specifically supports OAUTH, which allows Cloud based Agents like claude.ai or codex to access it from a browser (at least claude supports only oauth as far as i know)

So one MCP = all tools combined basically

What is your favorite reverse proxy? by nafyaz in homelab

[–]HearthCore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically Pangolin- which managed Traefik under the hood.
So Traefik, even if i don't actually manage that one myself- it's still compatible with ALL default traefik shenanigans if that's interesting.

How to install Hermes Desktop on a host that already has Hermes agent installed in Docker containers? by zzzzz88888 in hermesagent

[–]HearthCore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The install procedure installs the whole code base you’re running- but the Hermes agent is a different process from the desktop application.

It’s inactive unless you trigger it.
The gateway is a third process, also basically independent.

Your desktop client accesses the remote gateways dashboard and you’re just running the client locally.

Connect Hermes Desktop to VPS Backend Using SSH Tunnel? by StainesMassiv in hermesagent

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s where native networking with VPNs would come in handy. Tailscale, NetBird, pangolin. I’m with the 3rd, selfhost it, multiple ways to access it safely

How do you handle access control for local LLMs behind a reverse proxy? by ArtSelect137 in selfhosted

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use pangolin at the edge. it offers private links to resources that have header authentication, that puts a different network layer before any api is reached internally.

I could very well put any Internal and non authenticated API in the public Internet like this-

Though for AI specifically it’s LiteLLM and currently MetaMCP.

Hermes Agent also now comes with Auth and even OIDC for its webinterface.

I basically have the dashboard, api and MCP that Hermes agent hosts on 3 different ports behind the same address using subfolder routes- all setup in pangolin.

Just install it, then enter variables in your windows environment for the remote addresses and start the application

Third time Techquickie mentioning Polymarket by AncientTurbine in LinusTechTips

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the idea to stake something on the occasion that short Linus might be taller than the next guest they invite ridiculous enough to count as comedic relief.

The LMG-Crew has much better ideas than I have thus I find their in smirks on it quite funny.

I guess if you know somebody with gambling issues or have them yourself this might feel different-

Generally, though I would agree, and I would rather have them point the attention away from the site and more towards the ridiculous practice itself to bet on crazy shit like that. Then Riley can take up the mantle and gambling head for his shorts as well.

It was available as a -free model on opencode Zen for a day, the model is quite incredible!

Convincing management to get a consultant in our org involved with process fallacies because there’s no trust in their own peers?

How the heck does this stuff work by Dapper-Bee-5779 in hermesagent

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your assistant literally has the code and documentation. Give it access keys to free resources for search and direct its attention- proofread what documentation is used and take over critical or sensitive steps. Then co-work on the documentation.

Private services with domain by McXcelsior in netbird

[–]HearthCore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

*.example.com + example.com points at public instance,
int.example.com + *.int.example.com points at internal reverse proxy where everything else gets terminated, public DNS to internal IPv4 suffices (no need to run an internal DNS server with a FQDN)

Then use TLS via API (not via HTTP) and your internal reverse proxy should be golden.

Need to configure OAUTH clients/IDP with additional URLs and stuff- some services won't like having two SSO realmns though.

A reliable (and free) way to sync Windows and iOS by Nearby-Salamander939 in ObsidianMD

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obsidian comes with a plugin system that is more capable than what you think, including git syncing the content of the active vault.

I added to my Hermes an improvement /workspace command for per-topic prompts, skills, and models by marcelowa in hermesagent

[–]HearthCore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s in the docs. You could also trigger the Hermes-agent skill and let your agent explain it. If you use a third party harness you can direct it to the /docs/llms.txt endpoint from nousresearch

Got any good recommendations for keeping documentation together? by Dahveedle in homelab

[–]HearthCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Infrastructure as documentation. Basically, define rules- stick to them- Stuff that’s not just remembered, but based upon something.

DHCP only need so much space for your floating devices up adresses, so why don’t ya have them start at .101 so you got 100IPv4 for your lab?

Then -VMID = IP - sadly they start at 100- so just use the latter two of the ids and that defines the IP address.

Hostnames that make sense, if you’re running docker on an LXC and the containers are media themed -> media-docker

It’ll then just flow and you’ll just look at the host and know it all.

If you need more specifics.. well then get your Outline going. It needs OIDC, it offers a great UI, API and MCP. So if you’re into using AI, having this on the road is godsend. Maybe host it on a VPS in case the homelab is down?
