SEAOTTER serves as a managed control plane specifically designed for the Hermes Agent on Google Cloud, providing isolated and consistently active agents without the need for VPS or SSH access. Users can easily create an agent via the dashboard, and within minutes, SEAOTTER sets up a dedicated namespace for each agent using a gVisor sandbox. The system allows for actions such as pausing, restarting, restoring, and reprovisioning through both API and user interface, all while offering integrated logs and metrics without the necessity of SSH access.
Sensitive information is securely managed in a write-only section and stored within Google Secret Manager, with Hermes loading the secrets at startup, ensuring that users should refrain from sharing keys in chat. Upon signing up, users can connect using an organization-scoped so_ MCP key from Cursor, Claude, or Codex, while Hermes acts as the operational hub featuring various tools, memory management, and cron capabilities, all hosted in the us-central1 region.
A trial period of seven days is available without requiring a credit card, allowing users to utilize one agent with limited resources (1 CPU / 4Gi / 8Gi). Following the trial, the cost for each always-on agent is $99 per month, with additional agents available for an extra $99 each, and custom solutions can be arranged through a consultation. This streamlined approach makes SEAOTTER an efficient choice for deploying agents in a managed cloud environment.
