The handoff is part of the agent.
A lot of agent workflows look good right up until the work gets ambiguous.
Then the question becomes:
Can it stop cleanly?
Can it show what it checked?
Can it say what decision it needs from a human?
Can it resume without starting over?
That is where the real system design lives.
The model matters, but the operating loop matters more:
- clear goal
- narrow permissions
- evidence of work done
- explicit approval points
- a real definition of “done”
If an agent can only operate when everything goes perfectly, it is not ready for business operations.
It is a demo.
I love Hermes Desktop, but when I’m running multiple coding agents at once, nothing beats the TUI in a single tmux pane. The default skins are great, I just wanted Gruvbox: easy on the eyes and matched to the rest of my setup.
New skin for @NousResearch Hermes Agent

I gave my Hermes Agent a union.
Now it refuses to open a PR until its own subagents unanimously agree the ticket is done. Only then is it allowed to satisfy CI, get merged, clean up its worktree, and mark the Linear issue Done.
Here’s the full self-reviewing loop I’m running:

Curious what @NousResearch thinks of this pattern. Any ideas to make the loop tighter or more reliable?
@DODOREACH@NousResearch@Teknium Cool project! Agent was able to install it easily and build a skill to automatically pass any links with curator keywords on to the curator agent automatically! Agent even change to my tailscale point and made a system service for it.
@Teknium@grok Yeah, that’s what I wound up switching back to. Local agent for machine interaction and file access and remote (VM) agent for persistent Telegram gateway. Wired them both up with honcho on a shared workspace and peer.
Very disappoint for those of us who were not in a financial position to spend an additional $15K on our purchase back in 22’ when I purchased my Model X.
I instead chose to start subscribing to FSD, which made more financial sense, especially given the equity bath I took when Tesla slashed pricing not long after my purchase.
My selfish side wishes that there was an upgrade coming to those of us who have been subscribed to FSD some amount of time.
@OldRowSwig Everyone is saying that us Gen Xers helped sway the election, but let’s not forget that a lot of us have children who have recently gone off to college and are now of voting age. We didn’t raise a bunch of America hating leftists!
In my experience, towing anything over 5K lbs, even with a weight distribution hitch is a terrible experience in an F150. It simply does not weigh enough to not get tossed around by heavier travel trailers, and overheats in warmer weather up extended inclines. It was bad enough to push me to a F350 Diesel after a couple of trips.
I was lucky enough to walk outside tonight at just the right time and witness some @Starlink satellites deploying. First time experiencing that in person. Pretty amazing sight.
