how to set up hermes agent step by step. built-in memory, 40+ tools, works on your phone, and what to think of hermes vs openclaw:
1. hermes is a personal AI agent that runs in your terminal. think of it like open claw but with built-in memory, 40+ tools out of the box, and 90% cheaper token costs. you install it with one command.
2. the 3 problems with open claw that hermes solves: no memory (you keep repeating yourself), constant gateway restarts, and zero visibility into what you're spending on tokens.
3. hermes remembers everything. every completed task gets saved to memory. it searches through past logs to find solutions. over time it literally gets smarter at your specific workflows.
4. connect it to open router. you see exact costs per model per task. free models rotate weekly. one founder went from $130 every five days on open claw to $10 on hermes. same output.
5. it comes preloaded with skills. apple notes, imessage, find my, browser, web search, image generation, cron jobs. no hunting for plugins.
6. connect it to obsidian so it reads your entire vault. connect it to gstack for your dev environment. create custom skills for your specific workflows.
7. the biggest money saver: have it write code once for recurring tasks. then it runs without burning tokens every time. stop paying an LLM to do the same scrape or report daily.
8. run it on android via telegram. name your agents. talk to them like coworkers. in this episode imran shows you how to set this up.
9. you can run it bare metal, in docker, or serverless on modal. pick your risk level.
i begged @imranye to come on @startupideaspod and walk through the full installation live. he made it impossibly clear.
if you've heard of Hermes Agent and want the clearest explanation of how to get set up like a pro
let me know what you want me to cover on the next ep
this is the best personal agent setup video on the internet right now.

19-year-old American student spent his entire scholarship $2,299 on an iPad and Mac Mini.
His grandma thought he was trying to hack the Pentagon.
He just dropped one file into Claude and went to sleep.
CLAUDE.md processed four principles. Written after Karpathy - co-founder of OpenAI - publicly broke down how AI tools actually work.
In the morning the system closed tasks a junior dev would take three days to finish. Claude did it in 3 hours. Didn't touch code nobody asked it to touch. Just did exactly what it was told.
45,000 developers installed this in a week. Most of them had never heard of the file before.
The iPad became his office. The Mac Mini runs while he's in class.
An agency does the same thing for $15,000 a month.
He pays $20.
Four lines of logic. And the question is no longer "can a student compete with an agency" - but whether an agency is needed at all.

ANTHROPIC ENGINEER DROPPED A 14-MINUTE GUIDE.
This is the fastest way to understand how real agents are built.
Bookmark this for the weekend.
14 minutes.
Real architecture.
No fluff.
What actually works.
Agents → Structure → Tools → Execution → Systems → Money
an ex-Citadel quant told me a salary is a short position on your own time
we were at a dinner in new york. friend of a friend. he asked what i do.
"software engineer. $4,200 a month"
he said one simple thing
"you're mass-selling the most valuable asset you have. your hours. at a fixed price. with no upside. that's a short position on your own life"
i didn't have a response.
then he showed me his phone. a terminal. live trades. +$39,453 running for 6 weeks.
"i built this with Claude Opus 4.7 and one open source dataset. took a weekend. haven't touched it since"
i asked how.
"gave Opus one repo and one prompt. find who wins on prediction markets. find why. copy their edge"
https://t.co/xywgRNlvyc
2,900 stars. 36GB. every trade on Polymarket and Kalshi. every wallet. every resolution.
Opus read the whole dataset friday night.
by sunday it had a live terminal scanning 1,400 markets per hour. 8 detectors running in parallel. entering when void score exceeds 90. exiting when it drops below 75. no human override.
> Senate filibuster. locked at 42c. now 98c. +$1,133.
> Neuralink approval. entered 52c. now 98c. +$1,396.
> Fed 0% rate. entered 35c. now 97c. +$1,147.
> BTC 250K. entered 8c. now 98c. +$1,258.
> Megaquake. entered 6c. now 97c. +$1,039.
the part that broke something in me: latency arbitrage. Polymarket updates in 19ms. Kalshi in 63ms. the bot trades the 44ms gap between them. automatically. every time.
"we had four people at Citadel doing what your bot does with latency alone"
copy mirror tracking 6 positions:
> Senate fili +$1,252. void signal. 10%.
> BTC 250K +$958. zero signal. 2%.
> Neuralink +$1,384. sign signal. 9%.
> Fed 0% +$863. fill signal. 8%.
> Megaquake +$1,070. bridge signal. 18%.
> META AI +$979. gas signal. 5%.
972 trades. 83% win rate. kelly f+ 0.101. avg profit $10.65. drawdown -1.4%.
maker rebate tracker collecting $203 across four platforms while the bot trades. Polymarket +$114. Kalshi +$40. dYdX +$28. Betfair +$21.
$1,800 seed. +$39,453.
i quit the next morning. one email. "i'm done. thank you for everything."

texted him a week later. "you ruined a perfectly stable career"
he replied "no. i closed your short position"
Instead of watching an hour of Netflix, watch this 1 hour interview with the mathematician who outperformed Buffett, Soros, and Dalio, generated $100B+, and averaged 66% returns. It’ll teach you more about investing than a $200K MBA.
🚨 This is absolute GOLD.
The @AnthropicAI engineer who literally wrote "Building Effective Agents" just dropped a 14-minute masterclass.
saves you months of headaches trying to figure this out alone.

OpenAI fired this 23-year-old from their Superalignment team.
But he turned his insider knowledge into a $1.5B fund that's outperforming Wall Street by 700% this year.
He says maybe ~200 people in SF understand what's *actually* happening in AI right now.
Here's his thesis: 🧵
melatonin before sleep = DMT demons
magnesium before sleep = knock tf out but dehydration
l-theanine before sleep = background bliss. floating on clouds. zen garden. forehead kisses. roly poly down the hill.
there's a quiet shift happening in how we design software. we're moving from UX to AX (agentic experience).
traditional UX is screen-centric. you tap a button, product reacts, job done. every session starts from zero.
designers pre-plan every path with hard-coded flows. users fill out forms and dropdowns because the product remembers nothing about you.
success = fewer clicks and faster flows.
trust = "interface looks clean so it must work."
agentic experience is relationship-centric. the agent keeps track of ongoing goals, nudges next steps, improves over time. you're never starting over.
the system plans its own path - it senses, infers, chooses actions the designer didn't script. context is learned, not asked. preferences, patterns, even team norms are remembered.
success = earned trust and compounding value. metrics shift to retention, satisfaction with decisions, how much autonomy you hand over.
trust = the agent shows its work early, then tapers as confidence grows, like a human teammate.
most apps will eventually work this way.
your email client will learn your writing style and priorities. your design tool will remember your brand guidelines and suggest layouts. your CRM will track relationship patterns and recommend next moves.
the best products will anticipate needs, remember context, and get better with every interaction.
shoutout to @meetLCA for this visual and hit them up if you need help designing these AX experiences (they lead the charge)
we're moving from tools you use to partners you work with.
the companies building ax instead of ux will own the next decade.
users will stop tolerating dumb software that makes them repeat themselves.
once you experience true AX, traditional UX feels broken. there's no going back.
Web scraping will never be the same!
Firecrawl is an open-source framework that takes a URL, crawls it, and converts it into a clean markdown or structured format.
