Description

Hermes Drive Index is a private local Google Drive full-text search index for Hermes Agent. It crawls selected Drive folders, extracts document text, stores chunks and metadata in a local SQLite FTS5 database, and exposes Hermes tools for fast search, status checks, and safe incremental updates.

Why it is useful

Hermes often needs to find personal or team documents, receipts, project plans, PDFs, and Drive links. Live Google Drive search can be slow, rate-limited, and repetitive. This keeps a local searchable index so Hermes can retrieve relevant snippets and links quickly while keeping indexed text on the user’s own machine and is way more token friendly.

Current status

Early working release. Looking for feedback on packaging, install flow, Hermes plugin integration, and future OCR support.
