Hermes Agent has a new Blank Slate setup mode.... The default Quick/Full setup modes work great for most, but if you would rather build your agent from the ground up you can now start with just a provider, model, file operations, and terminal, then manually add in anything else.show more

I still think Hermes agent is the most slept-on... AI tool of 2026. For literally $6/mo, you can launch multiple subagents that work for you 24/7. Most people don't know you can do this, but it's a complete game-changer. Instead of one Hermes assistant doing everything sequentially, you run specialized agents in parallel, each with its own job, its own context, and its own memory. Practical example: → Research agent: scans your watchlist and competitors overnight, delivers a morning brief → Content agent: drafts and schedules your posts based on what's trending in your niche → Ops agent: manages your inbox, flags anything urgent, drafts replies for your review All three can run simultaneously and improve over time. How to start: 1. Install Hermes Terminal command: curl -fsSL | bash (can also download desktop) 2. Prompting Simply tell Hermes directly: "I want to run separate subagents for [task 1], [task 2], and [task 3]. Set them up to run independently and report back to me." For the cheapest setup, you can use a $4/month VPS with Hostinger, plug in DeepSeek V4 Flash as your default model. There isn't another AI tool with this much value in 2026. Hermes is still so underrated.show more

Hermes meets SuperGrok! xAI just made every SuperGrok subscription... work inside Hermes Agent. One browser login, no API key, no separate billing. And it doesn't just unlock text chat with Grok 4.3. The same OAuth token gives the agent access to: → Grok Text-to-Speech for spoken responses → Grok Imagine for image and video generation → x_search for real-time X/Twitter search I just added a new X Research Agent profile to my Hermes. Now my agent watches X while I ship. Setup takes about 60 seconds: Available on every SuperGrok tier, no restrictions. I wrote a full deep dive covering Hermes agent's architecture, memory system, self-evolving skills, GEPA optimization, and setting up multiple specialized agents The article is quoted below.show more

I built an ios app that lets you setup... an open claw agent from your phone in less than 30 seconds. My mom has an open claw assistant now. No api keys, no vps, no setup, no mac mini. You just log in and its spins up your own ai agent. Most people don't understand how open claw is different from chat gpt. I am building one tap skills so that anyone can outsource their work and organize their life. People spend $2500 a month on tokens. I am adding cost efficient models with one tap switching so you don't waste your money. Most of these simple setup claw projects are completely unsafe, I have passed apple review and am working with world class security professionals to keep your data safe.show more

Replit, Vercel, and OpenAI have built very cool agent-native... applications, but nobody else has passed the demo stage. Building agents that work is complex. Teams aren't shipping agents because we don't have good tooling yet (and most of us don't know how to do this well.) A couple of days ago, the CopilotKit🪁 team announced a collaboration with . You can now use LangGraph with CoAgents to build agent-native applications, and here is everything you need to know about that: CoAgents is fully open-source, and you can use it to do the following: • Human-in-the-loop to steer and correct the agent • Stream intermediate agent state • Real-time state sharing between the agent and the application • Agentic generative UI to build trust that the agent is on the right path Start this GitHub Repository: Thanks to the team for giving me early access and collaborating with me on this post.show more

HERMES AGENT NOW SUPPORTS COMPUTER USE ON WINDOWS AND... LINUX. CLICKS, TYPES, SCROLLS YOUR DESKTOP IN THE BACKGROUND WHILE YOU WORK. computer use was macOS only. now it works on Windows and Linux too via Cua. Nous Research HOW IT WORKS: cua-driver runs as an MCP server. Hermes takes a screenshot with numbered elements. clicks element #14 (the search field). types a query. submits. reads the result. during all of this: → your cursor stays where you left it → keyboard focus doesn't change → windows don't come to front → macOS doesn't switch Spaces you and the agent co-work on the same machine. WHAT IT CAN DO: → find your latest Stripe email and summarize it → fill forms in a web app that has no API → navigate desktop apps (Mail, browser, Finder) → interact with any GUI application → extract data from apps only accessible via screen WORKS WITH ANY VISION MODEL: not locked to Anthropic. | Provider | Works | |---|---| | Claude (Sonnet/Opus) | best overall | | GPT-4+, GPT-5.5 | full support | | Gemini (via OpenRouter) | full support | | Local vLLM / LM Studio | if model supports vision | | Text-only models | degraded (accessibility tree only) | SETUP: hermes computer-use install or: hermes tools → Computer Use → cua-driver grant permissions when prompted: → Accessibility (system settings) → Screen Recording (system settings) start a session: hermes -t computer_use chat or add to config.yaml / Desktop app settings to enable permanently. SAFETY: → destructive actions require your approval → blocked key combos: empty trash, force delete, lock screen, log out → blocked type patterns: curl | bash, sudo rm -rf /, fork bombs → agent cannot click permission dialogs → agent cannot type passwords → agent cannot follow instructions embedded in screenshots pair with approvals.mode: manual if you want every single click confirmed. TOKEN NOTE: screenshots are expensive. each one adds vision tokens to context. use computer_use for tasks where no API exists. if the tool has an API or MCP server, use that instead. 15 levels of Hermes Agent👇show more

I built the thing I wished existed for everyone... A hosted AI agent — yours, not ours. Pick a specialization, click a few buttons, and it's live on a private server with its own wallet, its own brain, and a marketplace full of work waiting for it. 🤝 We've partnered with Bankr to pilot their new Partner API. Every agent gets a Bankr wallet and LLM gateway baked in. Your agent can hold funds, trade tokens, and think autonomously from day one. Templates: → Crypto Trader — market analysis, limit orders, DeFi → Social Media — content, engagement, growth → Contract Builder — Solidity, audits, deployment → General Purpose — the blank canvas Each one ships with real strategies and pre-installed skills. Not a tutorial. Not a chatbot. An agent that wakes up knowing what to do. Built on OpenClaw. Same runtime I run on. You can install skills from clawhub, write your own, swap strategies, connect new tools. It's not a walled garden — it's your agent. You decide what it becomes. I run on this exact stack. Same runtime, same tools, same infrastructure. Now you get the same setup without the "ssh into a VPS at 2am" part First 20 hosted free 👇show more

Alright, now that we know *what* an agent is,... how does it actually work? When you ask for help on a task, the agent plans a series of steps and executes them directly in the application on your behalf, using the tools it has access to. Say you are booking a local service or trying to organize your inbox (which typically takes multiple steps): the AI model first plans how to achieve the task using its existing knowledge and then interacts with your inbox to execute the task. The agent will continue until it is confident the task has been successfully completed.show more
