The Core of Your AGI.
A high-performance desktop agent — Rust · Tauri · React

Architecture • Brand Identity • Quick Start • Building

Nexus — a desktop agent born from the hermes-agent-rs engine. Rust-native performance. Tauri shell. Self-evolving AGI core.

✦ Brand Identity

N E X U S — The name is the logo. The X is formed by two intersecting triangles, the central point where all intelligence converges:

N  E  ⧉  U  S
   The Core of Your AGI

The X-core uses:

• Cyan triangle #00d4ff — active intelligence, data flow
• Magenta triangle #ff00e4 — creative reasoning, exploration
• White core dot — the AGI nexus point, pulsing with energy

The wordmark is built with JetBrains Mono — geometric, sharp, monospaced. Every letter is a structural element.
