Actual Computer Setup Skill

Sets up actual.inc (Actual Computer) as a Hermes inference provider. Actual turns the user's own hardware into a private inference cluster and exposes an OpenAI-compatible API two ways: a hosted end-to-end-encrypted relay at https://api.actual.inc (authenticated with an ac_ key), and a local on-device daemon at http://127.0.0.1:8080 (no auth on loopback). This skill does not install the Actual daemon for the user — device authorization requires a human in a browser.

When to Use

  • User wants to add actual.inc as an inference provider (cloud relay or local).
  • User has an ac_ key and wants Hermes routed through their Actual cluster.
  • User wants fully-local, on-device inference via the Actual daemon.
  • Troubleshooting: Actual requests failing with cryptic 400s or empty streams.
