Trial by Fire Lab / Absolut3

Field notes from a technical non-dev figuring out AI agents, tools, gear, and workflows in public.

No guru shit.

@blako87 @bradmillscan The Hermes models aren't meant for Hermes Agent. @NousResearch has said not to use those models with Hermes Agent.

@whatdotcd I use 2 Hermes instances. One on a Vps and one on windows. What you got?

Much appreciated!

@NousResearch has taught me so much just from being around the community. Thanks @Teknium!

@NeoAIForecast Exactly my plan. I have Hermes map out phased plans for me for everything! I'll write some posts about how it works out.

[Trial by Fire Lab / Absolut3 @TrialByFireLab]

@NeoAIForecast I appreciate you responding. I have an old ASUS Strix 1070 I was thinking about playing around with and I think I'll steal your audit plan and see how it goes. Thanks!

@tonysimons_ I appreciate Openclaw for making autonomous agents so popular but @NousResearch Hermes Agent works like software should. You don't have to be a dev to be able to use it and get value out of it.

@sudoingX The --dry-run is the real sanity saver. Show me what you’re going to touch before you touch it, then maybe I’ll believe the off-ramp is real. Spoiler alert, it is.

@HermesAgentTips If I can't use it to Oauth with Hermes agent I don't care. 5.5 has been great for me. I'm not a dev on the cutting edge and Fable 5 is crazy expensive. 5.5 does everything I need it to and it's subsidized.

This site is easy to follow and understand. I found lots of useful information!

[Cathryn @cathrynlavery]

treating every random ai sidequest as a reason to learn at least one new thing.

with https://t.co/2LCZ2OvKZi it was:
• how to explain tech terms in plain english
• how to get ai to make 60+ images in a series that actually match → stylistically and conceptually

happy with how it came out 😁

We are unifying profile management in Hermes Agent starting today.

Now the dashboard allows switching management to any of your agent profiles on the machine. No more running multiple dashboards to manage each profile!

Also soon, you will only need one gateway to access all of your agents. This will enable us to progress toward full and true isolated multi-tenant solutions in the future.

Claude Fable 5 is now supported for use in Hermes Agent via Nous Portal!

The first 500 new users get one month free access to the Plus plan to try out Fable. Code in video:

Oh look new anthropic model! Can I use it to Oauth through Hermes Agent? No... Who cares?
