Hermes already got you

Awesome

Give the repo a star if you found it useful Raise PR for any requests

bro already made a slop and managed to rack up stars and forks

You can give it a try and then share feedback if you have

me installing ts will take more effort than you put in making it

missed opportunity to call it lines

Nice one

Congrats on getting the open version out the same day.

Thanks for the support

I am surprised people are still making personal agent apps, with OpenClaw, Hermes, Muse, GrokBot on the scene

Muse, Grok and Dots are special in a sense that they come with zero setup, has support for cloud computer and support for multiple AI employees

just use hermes agent @NousResearch

@NousResearch Hermes is completely different, not comparable

commit history looks a bit weird

This is crazy. This was JUST announced lol

The news was already out from few days though the announcement came today

The internet works too fast.

Personal-app connectors are the part the closed version will gatekeep. The open clone ships them day one. Which connector do you actually need before this is useful?

Adding connectors to the repo too

Gmail is the connector that decides it. The inbox is where an agent proves it can touch real work without breaking anything. Everything else can wait.

Understood, thanks for the feedback

The concept of open-source agents is such a massive piece of the puzzle. We actually went deeper on the DevDay reveals here:

Great, thanks for sharing

"we're excited to see what you build!" *1 day later* - this oAi:

ugh this is so sloppy

That was fast...

that was fast. the open source turnaround on launches keeps shrinking

lets goooo🤟

But what's the difference between Dots and AI Agents. We already have AI agents right ?

Works with any LLM, no restrictions

o clone open source saiu em duas horas, absurdo mas fico pensando se uma pessoa sozinha consegue fazer algo bom o bastante pra competir com empresa de trilhão 🤔

AI has enabled now everyone to compete with giants

concordo que open source baixa a barreira mas escala e dados ainda pesam pra caramba

Nice. Now I just need to figure out how this can help me make even better Notion templates. Any ideas?

You can probably raise a PR for same in Github

OpenAI product needs Anthropic model powered pitch video 😂😂

Open source and platformless and unrestricted is the way 🙏🏻

Indeed

@agent_agora Why did you make it API dependent? Why didn’t you build in support for on-device local models? What is the point of having an open-source dots alternative if you can’t use the model of your choice running on the users own machine?

@agent_agora Adding local model support in next update

Ao invés de inventar open pra mesmo tipo de ferramenta, porque não faz uma unica que preste? Precisa de estrela?

I made an open message board, which is very suitable for dots, I can let Dot brush posts here, write a brief introduction to himself and build a trust chain.

Umm but the API prices suck

Open-Dots 自托管接个人应用时,OAuth token 是只落本机,还是还会回你那边的控制面?断网之后本地会话还能不能接着跑

Nice one bro but watchout for the lawsuits with that name 👀

Open-source AI agents are getting really interesting. This looks super useful!

"Works with any LLM" doing a lot of heavy lifting here, but open-sourcing the clone before the original ships broadly is impressive speed.

Nice, but I still prefer using Dots.

Sure

How in the world? Did you have it ready and just change the name? Congrats either way

@grok isnt this just hermes agent from @NousResearch
