Pick whichever path is most convenient — both run the same upstream installer:
**Option 1: dedicated CLI command (most direct).**
```
hermes computer-use install

This fetches and runs the upstream cua-driver installer:
`curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trycua/cua/main/libs/cua-driver/scripts/install.sh`.
Use `hermes computer-use status` to verify the install.
**Option 2: enable the toolset interactively.**
1. Run `hermes tools`, pick `🖱️ Computer Use (macOS)``cua-driver (background)`.

- `dir:<path>` — an existing shared directory (Obsidian vault, mail ops dir, per-account folder). **Must be an absolute path.** Relative paths like `dir:../tenants/foo/` are rejected at dispatch because they'd resolve against whatever CWD the dispatcher happens to be in, which is ambiguous and a confused-deputy escape vector. The path is otherwise trusted — it's your box, your filesystem, the worker runs with your uid. This is the trusted-local-user threat model; kanban is single-host by design.

- **Dispatcher** — a long-lived loop that, every N seconds (default 60): reclaims stale claims, reclaims crashed workers (PID gone but TTL not yet expired), promotes ready tasks, atomically claims, spawns assigned profiles. Runs **inside the gateway** by default (`kanban.dispatch_in_gateway: true`). One dispatcher sweeps all boards per tick; workers are spawned with `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` pinned so they can't see other boards. After ~5 consecutive spawn failures on the same task the dispatcher auto-blocks it with the last error as the reason — prevents thrashing on tasks whose profile doesn't exist, workspace can't mount, etc.

Hermes Agent includes two model-callable web tools backed by multiple providers:
