Context
Nous Research added a way for Hermes to reuse existing browser logins. Its announcement specifies a managed copy of the user's Chrome profile, allowing the agent to start with signed-in sessions.
The browser documentation explains that Hermes launches a separate profile snapshot containing login information, cookies, and preferences. Keeping the snapshot separate avoids opening the live profile directly, but the copied sessions still let the agent act under the user's identity. The documentation therefore treats this as an opt-in convenience rather than an isolation boundary.
