Hermes Agent vs OpenClaw using Qwen 35B Local Model... We asked agents to scrape GitHub star history for both tools, find what caused the growth spikes, build a live dashboard in the browser. MacBook Pro M5 Max 64Gb OpenClaw: 203k tokens, 12m 01s - wrote a bash script Hermes: 257k tokens, 33m 01s - wrote a SKILL.md OpenClaw hit GitHub API, got truncated responses, paginated through contributors, pulled star-history JSON, found a security incident in OpenClaw's history, fetched SVGs, fixed broken HTML from trimming, rewrote it clean. Hermes parallel tool calls across GitHub API, web search, and browser. Hit Google rate limit, auto-switched to DuckDuckGo. Fetched article contents, mapped viral moments, then built the dashboard. Both shipped a live dashboard with star growth charts and spike annotationsshow more

Atomic Bot put Hermes and OpenClaw head-to-head on the... exact same task, running the same model (Qwen 3.6 35B) with the same goal: analyzing GitHub history, mapping growth spikes, and shipping a live dashboard in the browser.

asked Hermes Agent and OpenClaw to scrape our site... and send a report. using DeepSeek V4 from our API. OpenClaw: 15k token, 2min 48 sec. wrote a bash script. Hermes: 36 token, 8 min 06 sec. wrote a SKILL.md. runs itself next time.show more

Hermes Agent beat OpenClaw on Grok 4.5 in a... real security audit. — Hermes: $4.63 / 1.42M tokens / 5m 4s — OpenClaw: $1.31 / 396K tokens / 2m 55s So why would you ever pay more? Because Hermes caught what OpenClaw missed. It flagged the AWS key as a copy-paste docs example instead of a live secret, found the file's path sitting in shell history, and shipped a per-provider rotation checklist that actually closes the incident. OpenClaw was faster, cheaper, and cleaner to read, but it measured the keys without ever asking whether they were real, and stopped at the file instead of chasing where the leak could spread. The honest verdict: OpenClaw is the efficient baseline, perfect when you want a quick, cheap scan. Hermes is the one you want when it actually matters, because it spends the extra time and tokens on judgment, not padding.show more

Hermes Agents aren’t making it easy for OpenClaw. the... reason Hermes took off needs to be studied, some personal thoughts: > Hermes won the lottery for timing. OpenClaw proved the demand but took so much hit for being the first. the take-off was huge but it went down just as fast. > the development seems more disciplined than 100s of commits made for OpenClaw. and in general the roadmap looks nicer. > Hermes seems to lock in the “continuity” of the agents best. it searches past sessions, creates skills and updates them.show more

Hermes can now search and extract the web on... a fresh install with zero API keys.

Configured backends and API keys still take priority. The keyless ring is a last resort fallback, not guaranteed infrastructure, and it can be disabled entirely.show more
