@b4391co Could you share which model and provider you’re using, and whether OpenBot feels slow on every prompt or only in certain cases? Are you using the same model and settings in Hermes Bot?
OpenBot just added #Cobrain to its Apps catalog. Any agent you run there can now load, search and save notes in your Cobrain memory.
I've been working this way for a few days. Four agents are on the Cobrain launch: one plans it, one writes my X drafts, one does LinkedIn, one Reddit.
They all read the same notes before they start, and they write back what they decided. When I approve something with one of them, the others find it in the notes.
Before this, every agent started from zero and I was the one copying context around.
The notes are plain Markdown, and Claude and ChatGPT read the same ones.
If you run more than one agent, where do they keep what they've agreed on?
