My Hermes setup will shock you!

[Maku Gideon @gideon_tech1]

Just finished setting up Hermes Agent on a DigitalOcean droplet and the results are honestly insane.

What stands out is that this isn’t just another tool like OpenClaw. Hermes operates with skills, adapts over time, and improves its own workflows. It feels less like a script and more like a real assistant.

I’m using it to automate tasks, run research, handle work when I’m off the desk, and keep things moving in the background.

I’m not replacing myself with AI, I’m extending what I can do. This is a different level….

@samgrows This is an amazing feature
