this is f**king insane i cancelled my $20/mo claude... subscription for this. a dev found a way around OpenAI's usage limits and got unlimited GPT-5.6 Luna on Codex for FREE ($0)😳 He built a three step local workflow on a single machine. This involved no servers, shared accounts, or a team. Instead he used a GitHub repo, one prompt file, and a local coding agent. Traditional users pay full price or hit usage limits. His cost: basically $0. Here's the set up (3min): → Repo layer: Installed 'sol-advisor' from GitHub. → Prompt layer: Copied the 'savings-prompt' out of the repo. → Agent layer: Pointed codex at gpt 5.6 luna with the prompt loaded. → Activation: Loaded it into codex. Usage limits gone. usage after activation: normal codex access. unlimited. one trick. one window. use this before it gets patched.show more

It's absolutely insane that this is free. This guy... should've charged $1000+ for access to this. I just found the ultimate Hermes agent website. Free Hermes guides, agent skills, memory & context tools, plugins, extensions, and so much more. →show more

We've revamped Hermes Agent subscriptions. Every new plan now... includes a cloud agent out of the box, and usage has daily and weekly limits instead of one monthly block of credits. Subscribers can switch to the new plans any time atshow more

Update: I’ve now pushed over 5 BILLION tokens through... DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. I still haven’t had to reach for Astra or Fable because DeepSeek couldn’t handle a task. I’m using Hermes with three API keys across Command Code, ollama, and OpenCode. Super simple setup, and together they give me a ridiculous amount of usage. Cost: $40/month. A week ago I was spending $300/month and constantly thinking about limits. Now I’m throwing billions of tokens at coding agents without thinking twice. At this point, DeepSeek isn’t my fallback. It’s my default.show more

🚨 OH THIS IS A BIG ONE. Hermes can... now give different subagents different brains. Coding? Route to a coding model. Research? Another provider. Grunt work? Something cheap. Official Advanced Delegation just merged into main, with Desktop controls. THIS is how you build a fleet. 🪽show more

Cline Desktop launches today! The Cline team gave us... early access, so we’ve had some time to explore what they’re building. Cline Desktop is an open-source app built for open-weight models, bringing Cline into a dedicated desktop workspace with parallel agent sessions, scheduled tasks, flexible model and provider choice, a built-in Marketplace, and support for importing existing workflows from tools like Claude Code and Codex. It’s a meaningful step toward making open-weight models more practical for everyday agentic workflows!show more

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

Ollama can now think! 🤔🤔🤔 For thinking models, and... especially useful for very thoughtful models like DeepSeek-R1-0528, Ollama can separate the thoughts and the response.

Grok 4.1 Fast hits a staggering 334B tokens in... usage on OpenRouter in just a single day It takes almost a entire week for its closest competitor to match this level of daily usage This is a massive jump from the previous day’s total of 253B tokens per dayshow more

so I wired Nous Research Hermes Agent up so... it can live as a Grok Bot GROKBOT inside the grokbot app (private net / Tailscale). two ways, pick based on how your Hermes host runs: Hermes SSH Relay — Desktop-primary, no API gateway. SSH ask-relay, simplest “talk to hermes from inside grokbot app”. Hermes API Fleet — gateway + native API on :8642. better when you want parallel fleet asks / less hop overhead. same repo ⬆️ (docs for both) Grokbot Bot Templates: Hermes SSH Relay: Hermes API Fleet : what it unlocks: chat your hermes agent from grokbot UI, run herdr-style fleet ops from one place, keep hermes brains on the Mac while grok handles the front door. top 3 uses we care about: • identity bots per host so you always know who you’re talking to • easy orchestration across the Hermes fleet without jumping SSH by hand • bridge + connector pattern for hermes ↔ grokbot comms without stuffing secrets in the template Ps, imho: Dont point grok at writing into hermes memory plugins unless you mean to. (I let mine READ hermes Hindsight memory but not write to it) With this I now have a single CHIEF OF STAFF I talk to as a grokbot who orchestrates across 7 hermes machines, and 20+ grokbots, all running various coding harnesses, AI pipelines, GTM, AEO/SEO/GEO, UGC, seamlessly. I'm even having grokbot tell my chief Hermes Agent to run long horizon kanban goals. I'm also using a dedicated bot to keep my entire hermes fleet updated, maintained, pruned, local LLM optimized etc. I'll drop some of those templates over the next few days... follow with notis. Oh and shit a token usage window maximizer I'll share soon...burning it in this week, so far, have been blasting at 10x the rate across a dozen harnesses/subs. This is greatest unlock EVER in 7 months of harness jockeying. I am finally ONLY a HUMAN making decisions, ideating, all via a single grok bot Chief of Staff. Valhalla!show more
