Setting up your [0:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=3s) Hermes Agent correctly is so important. [0:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=5s) It's the difference between having a [0:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=6s) terrible time versus being able to build [0:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=8s) something sustainable that you can build [0:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=10s) on top of and become more magical every [0:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=12s) day. It's been over 4 months now that [0:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=14s) I've been using Hermes Agent [0:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=15s) consistently. Here's my multi-agent [0:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=16s) system doing research and building [0:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=18s) workflows and softwares while I'm [0:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=19s) chatting with it using local models to [0:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=21s) keep things free and private. Not that I [0:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=23s) have anything to hide, of course. And [0:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=24s) here is my Obsidian second brain and [0:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=26s) getting smarter every day. So, in this [0:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=27s) video, I'm going to walk you through my [0:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=29s) Hermes setup. I have tips and tricks [0:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=31s) along the way that can make a really big [0:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=32s) difference for your experience. And I'll [0:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=34s) be giving you exact prompts and [0:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=35s) workflows so you can also customize and [0:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=37s) build your Hermes Agent to exactly what [0:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=39s) you want it to be based on your budget, [0:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=41s) requirements, and use cases. Now, [0:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=43s) without further ado, let's go. All [0:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=45s) right, outline for today's video. We're [0:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=47s) going to start off with talking about [0:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=48s) hardware choices, where your Hermes [0:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=50s) Agent is going to live. Then, I'll walk [0:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=51s) you through the download and setup [0:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=52s) process. We'll walk through Hermes major [0:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=54s) features like tools, skills, and cron [0:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=56s) jobs, and the memory management system [0:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=57s) including how to optimize it. I'll also [0:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=59s) talk about use open-source models. And [1:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=61s) finally, after you've mastered these [1:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=62s) fundamentals, I want to give you a taste [1:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=64s) for the multi-agent frameworks, how [1:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=66s) powerful those can be, especially in [1:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=68s) combination with OpenClaw or Claw code, [1:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=69s) which is absolutely a game-changer if [1:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=71s) you're building software. By the way, I [1:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=72s) just want to say thank you guys so much [1:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=74s) for suggesting me moving over from [1:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=75s) OpenClaw to Hermes. I honestly was and [1:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=78s) still am a big fan of OpenClaw and will [1:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=79s) probably revisit it again later. But for [1:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=81s) now, Hermes has become my major local [1:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=84s) agent. So, yeah, you guys were right. [1:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=86s) Okay, let's start off with talking about [1:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=87s) hardware. [1:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=92s) For me, I primarily run my Hermes Agent [1:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=93s) on my Mac Studio. It has 64 gigs of RAM, [1:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=96s) an M4 chip, and it's on 24/7. This is [1:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=99s) powerful enough for me to run some [1:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=100s) pretty great local AI models and only [1:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=102s) accessing more powerful cloud-based [1:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=104s) models when I need to do something like [1:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=106s) really fancy. This is a good balance for [1:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=107s) me and my team because even though the [1:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=108s) Mac Studio did cost me a lot of money, [1:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=110s) it is still way cheaper than when I was [1:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=112s) using a Mac Mini or like even my laptop [1:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=114s) and having to rely really heavily on [1:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=116s) cloud models. But do not fear if you [1:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=118s) don't happen to have a Mac Studio. You [2:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=120s) can also have very powerful Hermes Agent [2:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=122s) setups with other options. I would say [2:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=124s) that there are four primary options that [2:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=125s) you can choose. The first one is a [2:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=127s) dedicated powerful local machine like a [2:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=129s) Mac Studio, for example. The second one [2:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=131s) is a VPS, a virtual private server, [2:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=133s) which is kind of like renting computer [2:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=134s) space on the cloud. These can be as [2:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=136s) cheap as just five or six dollars and be [2:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=138s) on 24/7 as well. The third option is [2:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=140s) just to use any old computer or laptop [2:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=142s) that you happen to have around, like [2:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=144s) this MacBook Pro, for example. 16 gigs [2:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=146s) of RAM. This is actually where I [2:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=147s) started. Just make sure that you wipe [2:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=148s) everything and I just kept it like on [2:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=150s) 24/7, so it was basically like a [2:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=152s) dedicated machine. And finally, if you [2:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=154s) really don't want to spend any money and [2:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=155s) you don't happen to have any other [2:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=156s) computers lying around, you can also use [2:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=158s) your own personal computer. But, if [2:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=160s) you're going to do this, I highly, [2:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=161s) highly recommend that you use Docker, [2:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=163s) which containerizes your agent, so it [2:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=165s) doesn't allow it to go bananas on the [2:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=167s) rest of your computer. All right, so I'm [2:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=168s) not going to go into way too much detail [2:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=169s) about each of these options, uh because [2:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=171s) I have actually covered those in some [2:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=173s) videos, which I can link in the [2:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=173s) description you can check out. Now, [2:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=175s) let's actually move on to the next step, [2:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=177s) which is setting up our Hermes Agent. [3:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=180s) >> [music] [3:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=182s) >> So, to set up Hermes Agent, you want to [3:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=185s) go to hermesagent.newsresearch.com [3:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=187s) and you have two different options. You [3:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=189s) can install it via the desktop app if [3:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=191s) you have a Mac or you can install it via [3:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=193s) the terminal. You can have a Mac as well [3:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=195s) or if you have a Windows. Most tutorials [3:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=197s) I see actually go through the terminal [3:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=198s) route. So, I actually want to show you [3:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=200s) how to do it via the desktop app, which [3:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=202s) is a great option for people who don't [3:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=203s) feel comfortable typing stuff into [3:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=204s) terminal. But, if you are going through [3:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=205s) the terminal, it's super easy as well. [3:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=207s) Just click the copy, stick it into your [3:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=209s) terminal, and just go through the [3:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=210s) onboarding sequence. So, click download [3:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=212s) for macOS. All right, so once you have [3:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=213s) it downloaded open, it would look like [3:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=215s) this. A clean Hermes Agent. This [3:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=217s) interface probably looks very familiar, [3:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=219s) it's very similar to your normal chatbot [3:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=221s) interfaces. And the first thing you want [3:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=222s) to do is come over here and look at the [3:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=225s) different models. So, there are some [3:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=226s) models that are already here because I [3:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=228s) have like an Anthropic key that's set [3:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=229s) up. This probably going to look [3:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=230s) different depending on what you already [3:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=232s) do have set up over here. So, you can [3:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=234s) just choose what you have and if you [3:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=236s) don't have anything that you like, you [3:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=237s) can also choose edit models and then [3:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=239s) click add provider. Here you can connect [4:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=241s) to any providers that you have. If you [4:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=243s) have an open AI ChatGPT subscription, [4:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=245s) you can just log in to that and be able [4:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=247s) to use your subscription here or any of [4:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=248s) the other ones here. If you want to go [4:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=250s) fully local, that also works. I will [4:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=252s) show you a little bit later in the video [4:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=253s) how to set up your local model. But, if [4:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=255s) you don't happen to have like any kind [4:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=257s) of provider subscription, the easiest [4:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=258s) option is probably just go with the news [4:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=260s) portal. It is a monthly subscription [4:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=262s) that gets you access to hundreds of [4:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=263s) different models. Very convenient. And [4:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=265s) once you have that connected, you can [4:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=267s) just start off by saying, "Hi." [4:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=270s) Yay! Just had your first interaction [4:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=272s) with Hermes agent. By the way, the [4:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=273s) general consensus is that the Sonnet 5 [4:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=276s) model is the best driver for the Hermes [4:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=278s) agent. But, because of Anthropic not [4:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=280s) letting you use your subscription and [4:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=282s) you actually have to use the API key, it [4:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=283s) can get pretty expensive. For me [4:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=285s) personally, because I use Hermes a lot, [4:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=287s) my main driver is an open source model [4:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=289s) called the Quant 5.6 35B model, which I [4:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=292s) run using my Mac Studio. There's a lot I [4:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=294s) can talk about when it comes to model [4:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=295s) selection and what you can be using, but [4:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=297s) to keep ourselves on track, I'm just [4:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=299s) going to put on screen now some of the [5:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=300s) common models that people choose to use [5:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=302s) as their main drivers, including their [5:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=303s) pros and cons. And I'm also going to put [5:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=305s) in the free guide below more detailed [5:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=308s) recommendations as well as a prompt that [5:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=309s) can help you choose what is the best [5:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=311s) driver model for your specific setup. [5:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=313s) Now, let's continue with talking with [5:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=315s) the agent for a bit. The first thing [5:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=316s) that I actually recommend that you do is [5:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=318s) tell your agent a little bit about [5:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=319s) yourself. Now, instead of actually [5:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=321s) typing it because of AI psychosis and [5:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=323s) I'm incapable of like writing stuff [5:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=325s) anymore, what I like to do is go to a [5:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=327s) chatbot like Claude, for example, and [5:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=329s) then just write like, "Give me a [5:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=333s) brief description about what you know [5:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=335s) about me that I can give [5:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=338s) to Hermes agent." So, yes, it will just [5:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=341s) tell me about myself, which I can just [5:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=342s) copy that and I'll write, "Here is a bit [5:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=346s) about myself. Please remember this. [5:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=349s) There you go. And you can see that it [5:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=351s) says running memory because it's [5:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=352s) actually going to remember [5:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=354s) this. Now, you may be asking, "How is it [5:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=357s) remembering it? Where is it storing this [5:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=358s) information?" Great question. Let me [6:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=360s) show you. I'm going to actually going to [6:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=361s) jump now to my Mac Studio, which has my [6:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=363s) like actual like proper Hermez Agent [6:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=366s) running up. I I, you know, redownloaded [6:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=367s) and installed it again to show you guys [6:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=369s) like the download process. [6:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=370s) Uh but let's actually see what it looks [6:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=371s) like. I'm going to move there now. Now, [6:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=373s) this [clears throat] is the Mac Studio. [6:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=374s) I don't know if you can actually notice [6:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=375s) a difference, but [6:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=377s) anyways, let me actually show you where [6:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=379s) Hermez Agent stores his memories. So, if [6:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=381s) you go to finder, if you have a MacBook, [6:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=384s) it is stored under the users, your name, [6:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=388s) so my username is Tina, and then [6:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=389s) .hermez. And you can literally see [6:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=392s) everything that's contained here. But [6:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=394s) this is not very pretty, so I'm going to [6:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=395s) actually show you using Obsidian. So, it [6:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=397s) looks better. So, here is the .hermez [6:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=399s) folder, and it will be telling [6:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=400s) information about the user, me. It's [6:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=403s) stored under memory, and you can click [6:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=405s) user. So, this is literally like human [6:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=407s) readable. You can read it yourself what [6:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=409s) Hermez knows about you. It has specific [6:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=411s) information that it saves into the [6:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=414s) .users. It's just a markdown file. And [6:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=416s) since we're talking about where it's [6:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=417s) storing stuff, there's also a memory [6:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=419s) markdown file where it saves information [7:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=422s) that is very crucial to your current [7:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=423s) setup. This is the built-in Hermez [7:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=425s) memory, so you don't have to do anything [7:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=427s) here. So, I will talk a little bit more [7:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=429s) about the memory system and how it is [7:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=430s) that you can enhance this a little bit [7:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=432s) later in the video. By the way, there [7:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=433s) are a lot of things that you can do just [7:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=435s) via this desktop app. It is so [7:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=436s) convenient. Like if you go to your [7:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=438s) settings over here, there's a lot of [7:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=440s) things that you can configure. So, your [7:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=442s) model, information about your chat, you [7:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=443s) can assign it different personalities, [7:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=445s) appearance. Uh there's a lot of things [7:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=448s) that you can customize, what you want it [7:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=449s) to look like. I just like leaving it as [7:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=451s) default. I think it looks pretty good. [7:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=452s) Information about workspace, safety, [7:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=454s) memory, and context. Yeah, there's a lot [7:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=456s) that you can actually do just from here. [7:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=458s) And with that, let's transition into the [7:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=460s) next section. I want to show you the [7:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=461s) major Hermes features so that you can [7:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=463s) have a very strong foundation to build [7:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=465s) on. [7:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=470s) Okay, so there are five major features [7:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=471s) that I think is important for you to [7:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=473s) understand. The first one is tools. So, [7:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=475s) tools are pre-configured infrastructure [7:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=477s) that's managed by News Research, the [7:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=479s) creators of Hermes. You'll be able to do [8:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=481s) things like search the web, generate [8:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=483s) images, text images, browser [8:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=485s) automations, etc. So, it's not something [8:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=487s) that you actually do yourself. For [8:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=489s) example, I can ask Hermes agent, "Search [8:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=491s) the web for research into the latest AI [8:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=496s) chip developments." [8:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=498s) So, we see that it uses a search [8:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=499s) function and was able to get the results [8:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=501s) on the latest chip developments. If you [8:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=503s) click on skills and tools and you look [8:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=505s) at tool kits, here you can see a lot of [8:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=507s) different tools that Hermes natively [8:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=510s) has. So, this is already very, very [8:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=511s) powerful, but Hermes can do more than [8:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=513s) this because it also has what are called [8:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=516s) integrations. Integrations allow Hermes [8:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=518s) to call so call upon and use other [8:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=521s) third-party softwares. It's what allows [8:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=522s) you to connect to different providers, [8:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=524s) for example, for different models, like [8:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=526s) News Portal, Anthropic, OpenAI, MiniMax, [8:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=529s) etc., etc. It also allows you to connect [8:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=531s) to messaging platforms. Like over here, [8:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=534s) I have Discord connected. Ignore my [8:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=536s) 1,000 tabs, but this is how I like to [8:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=539s) get alerts and communicate with Hermes [9:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=541s) as well. So, here Hermes is sending me [9:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=544s) my daily brief. [9:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=545s) >> Good morning, Tina. Here's your AI brief [9:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=548s) for Thursday, July 4th, 2026. [9:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=551s) >> That's a little taste for what you can [9:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=552s) build using these integrations. It's [9:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=554s) also where I get alerts for bills that [9:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=556s) are successful from Hermes, too. By the [9:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=558s) way, if you also want to connect to [9:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=559s) Discord or like Telegram or any other [9:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=561s) chat app, it's really easy. You can [9:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=562s) actually start a new session and just [9:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=564s) ask your Hermes agent, "Hey, can you [9:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=566s) help me connect to Telegram?" For [9:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=569s) example, or WhatsApp, or whatever. [9:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=577s) And if you click on messaging, you can [9:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=579s) see all the different types of message [9:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=581s) integrations, messaging app integrations [9:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=583s) that you can connect to if you wish. I [9:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=585s) personally like using Discord uh because [9:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=587s) it allows me to be able to separate like [9:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=589s) different channels and then get like [9:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=590s) alerts and communicate based on [9:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=592s) different channels. Also, I can use it [9:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=593s) on my phone. But, I'm pretty sure that [9:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=595s) they're probably going to roll out with [9:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=597s) a mobile version of the desktop app soon [9:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=599s) as well because Open Cloud did. So, I [10:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=601s) wouldn't be surprised if you can just [10:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=603s) use the desktop app like with a mobile [10:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=604s) version very shortly too. Great. So, [10:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=606s) News Research and Hermes supports a lot [10:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=608s) of these integrations already and [10:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=609s) they're super easy to use. I'm going to [10:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=611s) put on screen now some of my favorite [10:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=612s) integrations that I like to use. And if [10:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=615s) it so happens that Hermes doesn't have a [10:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=617s) native integration already, you can use [10:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=619s) what is called MCP in order to provide [10:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=621s) your agent with additional third-party [10:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=623s) tools. Notebook LM, for example, is one [10:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=625s) of my favorite MCPs in order to do [10:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=626s) research and to create a podcast like [10:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=628s) you just saw earlier for my daily [10:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=629s) briefings. And the way you get it to [10:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=631s) connect is also, as you probably would [10:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=632s) guess, really easy. You can just say, [10:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=634s) "Hey, help me connect to the Notebook LM [10:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=638s) MCP, [clears throat] for example." And [10:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=639s) then you would just follow the [10:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=640s) instructions. I'm also going to put on [10:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=641s) screen now some of my favorite MCPs and [10:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=643s) what I like to do with them. I'm not [10:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=644s) going to go into too much more details [10:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=646s) about MCPs and any additional plugins. I [10:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=648s) feel like that's a little bit more [10:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=649s) advanced, maybe for a next video. Now, [10:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=650s) let's move on to the second category of [10:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=652s) features. Also, the feature that made [10:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=654s) Hermes famous to begin with, which is [10:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=657s) skills. You see, Hermes agent advertises [10:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=659s) itself as the agent that grows with you. [11:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=662s) And what that means is that it's able to [11:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=664s) learn as you work with it, aka develop [11:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=667s) skills with you over time. So, what are [11:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=669s) skills? Well, you can think about skills [11:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=671s) as an instruction manual for completing [11:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=673s) a task. If we go to Skills and Tools, [11:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=675s) you can actually see some of the [11:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=676s) pre-built skills that Hermes already [11:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=677s) has. And there's like different [11:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=679s) categories for this. For example, [11:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=681s) there's Apple Notes that can manage [11:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=682s) Apple Notes, Apple Reminders, iMessage [11:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=684s) that can send and receive iMessages. [11:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=686s) Let's see, if we go to Research, there's [11:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=688s) one that allows you to search different [11:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=689s) papers, Creative lets you generate ASCII [11:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=692s) video videos, etc. etc. There are a lot [11:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=694s) of them over here. So, you can actually [11:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=695s) check them out. But, what makes Hermes [11:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=697s) famous is that as you work along with [11:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=699s) it, it's able to learn these skills both [11:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=700s) by itself and you can specifically teach [11:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=702s) it new skills to do, too. Here, for [11:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=704s) example, in this conversation, I was [11:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=705s) asking Hermes to help me research some [11:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=708s) business ideas and see how valid it is. [11:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=710s) And it tells me this is ideal for [11:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=712s) creating AI-generated micro-dramas, [11:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=714s) which is something that's already very [11:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=715s) dominant in production in China. So, it [11:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=718s) you know, did a lot of research, told me [12:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=720s) information about what's the landscape [12:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=721s) looking like, what the competitors are [12:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=723s) looking like, what's the blueprint, and [12:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=725s) where's the opportunity here. And it [12:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=726s) also gave me a plan for what to build, [12:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=728s) including phase one, phase two, and [12:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=729s) phase three, blah blah blah, etc. I then [12:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=731s) asked you to give it a final score after [12:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=733s) scores across different dimensions based [12:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=735s) upon these additional criteria. So, I [12:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=737s) gave it more criteria about what I cared [12:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=739s) about. Uh so, I don't want to raise VC [12:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=741s) capital, I want it to be bootstrap [12:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=742s) lifestyle business, etc. etc. And then [12:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=743s) finally, it was able to evaluate how [12:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=745s) good this is for a business idea that I [12:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=747s) might want to pursue. So, it tells me [12:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=749s) that it has a score of 7.5 out of 10, [12:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=751s) and more details over here as well. [12:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=752s) Here's where I want to draw your [12:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=753s) attention to. I asked it, "Make this [12:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=755s) into a skill for evaluating business [12:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=757s) ideas." And that's when I said, "Sure." [12:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=759s) And it was able to make this skill. You [12:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=762s) can see the description of the skill. [12:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=763s) So, what it's supposed to do. So, [12:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=764s) business idea evaluator is supposed to [12:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=766s) score the framework for evaluating [12:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=767s) business ideas against bootstrap [12:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=769s) lifestyle criteria and the different [12:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=771s) dimensions. And it also explains how [12:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=773s) Hermes in the future should be using the [12:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=775s) skill. So, how to use. User describes a [12:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=776s) business idea. Um it would score each [12:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=778s) dimension 1 to 10, assign weights, [13:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=781s) calculate weighted total, and then [13:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=782s) present the total score out of 10, [13:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=783s) individual scores, and key strengths and [13:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=785s) weaknesses, and then finally give it a [13:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=787s) clear recommendation, which is go, [13:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=788s) caution, or no go. And so now I have [13:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=790s) that skill available to me, and I can do [13:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=792s) {slash} it's called business idea [13:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=794s) evaluator, and I can say evaluate [13:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=796s) business idea. Uh let's see. To evaluate [13:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=799s) business idea of a personalized learning [13:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=803s) app that is able to generate a study [13:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=807s) plan and lessons specific to what you [13:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=810s) want to learn that uses AI to be able to [13:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=813s) generate this. Okay, cool. And we can [13:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=815s) see that the it says here the user has [13:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=816s) invoked a business idea evaluator skill. [13:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=818s) Okay, great. It tells me lots of things, [13:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=821s) blah blah blah blah blah, and it tells [13:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=822s) me, "Wow, 9.2 out of 10." Great. I [13:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=825s) should do this. And it asked me, "Want [13:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=827s) me to start building the phase one MVP?" [13:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=829s) So, say I really like this idea and I'm [13:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=831s) going to use another skill and say, [13:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=833s) "Save this research about the AI [13:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=836s) learning app into my Obsidian vault." [13:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=839s) Great. So, it uses the Obsidian skill. [14:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=841s) If you want to look under thinking, it [14:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=842s) says, "I'll use the write file tool as [14:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=844s) recommended by the Obsidian skill." And [14:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=847s) under projects, we have another project [14:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=849s) called AI learning app where it has a [14:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=851s) lot of information here. Don't worry so [14:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=853s) much about this Obsidian setup. I'm [14:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=855s) actually show you later how to make this [14:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=857s) in the memory section of the video. But [14:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=858s) first, I want to talk about one more [14:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=859s) major feature of Hermes agent, which is [14:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=862s) cron jobs or scheduled task. A cron job [14:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=865s) is a scheduled task that runs [14:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=866s) automatically at certain times or [14:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=868s) specific intervals without having to [14:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=870s) manually trigger it. You see a lot of [14:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=872s) things in life are actually reoccurring. [14:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=874s) Like every day, you got to get up and [14:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=876s) like exist and eat food, you know? Yeah, [14:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=878s) like computer, when we're doing AI [14:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=880s) stuff, it's very similar. You generally [14:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=882s) want to do very similar things every [14:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=883s) single day or every single week where [14:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=885s) you know some type of cadence. That's [14:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=886s) why cron jobs are really useful for [14:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=887s) that. One example of this is a daily [14:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=889s) scheduled brief that I have. At 11:00 [14:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=891s) p.m. the previous day, it creates this [14:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=894s) brief for me of all the daily news that [14:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=896s) I'm interested in and also makes it into [14:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=898s) an audio file that I can listen to in [15:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=900s) the morning. I also have cron jobs that [15:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=902s) summarize my Apple notes because I [15:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=903s) really like like, you know, writing a [15:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=904s) bunch of stuff into my Apple notes um [15:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=906s) and then compile that together into [15:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=908s) Obsidian as well. So, I can like kind of [15:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=910s) query my own brain if that makes sense. [15:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=912s) Another one that's very important is [15:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=913s) that I have a cron job that every single [15:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=916s) night looks through to make sure that [15:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=918s) everything is running properly cuz I'm [15:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=919s) hosting a lot of the models. I also have [15:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=921s) like multi-agent systems going on [15:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=922s) building software all at the same time. [15:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=924s) So, I want to make sure that everything [15:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=926s) is being handled the way that's supposed [15:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=927s) to be handled. I will put on screen some [15:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=928s) of the cron jobs that I have and the [15:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=930s) ones that I'm building as well, some of [15:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=931s) my favorite ones, which hopefully can [15:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=933s) give you inspo for things that you can [15:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=934s) build as well. So, take a screenshot or [15:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=935s) not. I also do have a free guide in the [15:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=938s) description where you can sign up and [15:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=940s) then I will send you the free video [15:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=941s) companion to your email, if you want. [15:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=943s) Great. So, we've covered the major [15:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=944s) features for Hermes Agent and you can [15:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=946s) build so much just with these features [15:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=949s) here. Now, there is one more concept [15:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=950s) that I have separated into its own [15:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=952s) section because it is so important, [15:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=954s) which I'm going to talk about now, which [15:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=955s) is memory. [16:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=960s) For those of you who have used Open Claw [16:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=962s) or like Co-work or other types of agents [16:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=964s) previously, you probably got really [16:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=966s) frustrated at some point because of the [16:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=969s) memory. Like it started like forgetting [16:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=970s) things. Um it can't like search up what [16:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=972s) it's supposed to start to getting really [16:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=973s) slow as well and these things started [16:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=975s) breaking as well. Very annoying. All of [16:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=977s) this has to do with memory management. [16:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=978s) Now, Hermes already has a pretty good [16:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=980s) memory system and actually like for most [16:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=983s) people, if you just use his default [16:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=984s) memory system, you would be okay. But, [16:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=986s) if you are someone who really wants to [16:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=988s) get a lot out of Hermes and just use it [16:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=990s) to the best of its abilities, there are [16:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=992s) also two customizations that you can do, [16:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=994s) which I find that has been amazing and [16:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=996s) really, really helpful. But, first let [16:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=997s) me actually quickly cover what is Hermes [16:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=999s) Agent's default memory setup. Okay, we [16:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1002s) are back in Obsidian where I'm showing [16:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1004s) you the entire Hermes folder, everything [16:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1007s) that's contained in here. The memory [16:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1008s) system is a two-tier system. And [16:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1010s) actually, you've already seen uh the [16:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1012s) first tier when I showed you earlier. [16:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1014s) Pop quiz, write in the comments, do you [16:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1016s) know what it is? It's okay if you don't. [16:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1018s) I'll show you again. It is the [16:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1019s) combination of three different files. [17:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1021s) The memory.md file stores really [17:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1024s) important information about the setup, [17:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1027s) like where things live, what are the [17:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1028s) major plugins and integrations that are [17:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1030s) there, what's in progress, etc. The [17:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1033s) user.md file that has information about [17:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1035s) the user, you, and the is sold on the [17:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1038s) file, which is information about the [17:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1039s) agent. So, it knows who it is. So, this [17:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1041s) first here gives a general overview for [17:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1043s) your Hermes agent to know high-level [17:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1045s) information. But, each of these files is [17:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1047s) actually kept deliberately brief. [17:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1048s) Otherwise, they just get really, really [17:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1050s) bloated and slows down Hermes in the [17:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1052s) long run. But, what happens if you want [17:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1053s) to find information that is more [17:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1054s) specific? Well, luckily, Hermes has a [17:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1056s) second tier memory system where it can [17:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1058s) use a tool. Remember what a tool is? [17:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1060s) Called session search where it can [17:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1061s) search through logs of archived [17:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1063s) information. This is stored in a sequel [17:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1065s) light database. I don't have to go into [17:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1066s) too much detail about this, but Hermes [17:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1068s) actually does store all the [17:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1070s) conversations that you have about it. It [17:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1071s) just wouldn't actually go and look at it [17:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1073s) unless it needs to retrieve the [17:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1074s) information. Let me actually show you [17:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1075s) this in action. So, start a new session [17:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1077s) and I will write, "Remind me, what were [18:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1080s) we talking about earlier about business [18:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1082s) ideas?" And you can see that it's using [18:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1085s) the session search tool, searching past [18:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1088s) sessions. And it's able to tell you, [18:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1090s) "Okay, we talked about two business [18:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1091s) ideas recently, a vertical micro drama [18:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1094s) condensation engine and AI personalized [18:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1096s) learning app." So, that's how it's able [18:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1098s) to retrieve that information, even [18:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1099s) though it's not in its core memory.md [18:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1102s) file. So, I like I said, these two [18:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1103s) tiers, I guess like tiers, levels, [18:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1105s) whatever, levels of memory are actually [18:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1107s) really pretty good. But, if you really [18:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1108s) want to enhance the system, there are [18:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1110s) two things that you can do to push you [18:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1112s) up two notches that can make it even [18:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1115s) better. So, that is tier number three. [18:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1117s) You can install a external provider [18:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1119s) memory plugin. My favorite one to use is [18:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1121s) called Honcho's. Honcho's doesn't [18:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1122s) actually replace tier one and tier two [18:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1125s) of your memory. It just adds on to it. [18:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1127s) It's looking at all your interactions [18:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1128s) with your Hermes agent and collecting [18:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1130s) what is called implicit understanding, [18:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1132s) patterns across your interactions and [18:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1134s) things you may not even be aware of [18:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1135s) about yourself, the projects that you [18:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1136s) do, the way that you behave, and it [18:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1138s) supplements the Hermes agent with this [18:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1139s) information so it has better memory. And [19:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1142s) to do this is also very easy. Cookie for [19:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1144s) anybody that can guess. Yes, you just go [19:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1147s) into a new session. So, say, "Help me [19:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1149s) set up Honcho." And it will walk you [19:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1151s) through the exact steps of setting this [19:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1153s) up, including going on the Honcho [19:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1154s) terminal. I think you do get quite a lot [19:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1156s) of free credits right now, at least at [19:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1158s) the time of this filming, so you can [19:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1159s) take advantage of this. Then, after you [19:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1161s) have it installed, it's just going to [19:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1162s) silently be working and collecting data, [19:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1164s) and you can have some conversations with [19:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1165s) it. You want to see what's happening, [19:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1167s) you can look at the web app on Honcho, [19:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1168s) or you could just go to your terminal. [19:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1171s) Okay. If you do know how to use [19:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1172s) terminal, this is very handy. Okay, so I [19:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1174s) have a three different terminals running [19:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1176s) at the same time, just like ignore [19:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1177s) what's going on. Let's focus just on [19:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1179s) this one. Ignore all of that. So, we can [19:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1181s) just write like Hermes Honcho status, [19:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1184s) and we can see, great, after it's [19:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1186s) installed, it's true, blah blah blah, [19:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1188s) it's it's done correctly, and then it's [19:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1190s) telling you me information about myself. [19:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1192s) Like, so here's my user Picard, it has [19:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1194s) information about this explicit [19:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1196s) observations, it also says some of the [19:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1198s) information that's observed. So, great, [19:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1199s) we know that it's working. You will just [20:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1201s) find that as you're talking to your [20:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1202s) Hermes agent, sometimes it would start [20:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1204s) pulling information from Honcho when it [20:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1206s) needs to have specific information. It's [20:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1208s) like a subtle thing, but you'll notice [20:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1209s) that it just makes your experience so [20:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1212s) much smoother. Would recommend this if [20:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1213s) you intend to use Hermes a lot. Now, [20:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1215s) finally, the fourth tier. You really [20:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1217s) want to make your memory system super [20:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1219s) duper robust by setting up what is [20:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1221s) called a second brain. That is the [20:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1223s) Obsidian thing that I was showing you [20:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1224s) earlier. So, this is one of my Obsidian [20:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1227s) second brains. And the way that you do [20:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1228s) this, just go to Obsidian, and then [20:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1231s) click download, and you would be able to [20:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1233s) have it as a desktop app. And once you [20:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1235s) open it, you'll be greeted with [20:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1236s) something that looks like this. Click [20:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1238s) open folder as vault, and you can just [20:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1240s) pick it wherever you want, just create a [20:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1241s) file, call it like Hermes vault, or [20:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1244s) whatever, and then just click open, and [20:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1246s) then you have your vault. That's [20:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1248s) currently empty. What you need to do is [20:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1249s) you have to connect your Hermes to your [20:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1251s) vault, which, again, all you got to do [20:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1253s) is just ask your Hermes to help you set [20:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1255s) up an Obsidian vault. But basically, [20:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1256s) after you do this, as I showed you [20:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1259s) earlier, when you're talking to your [21:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1260s) Hermes agent and you're doing research [21:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1261s) or whatever, you can ask it to use the [21:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1263s) Obsidian skill in order to save certain [21:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1265s) things into your Obsidian vault, and it [21:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1267s) can do this for you. Like I said, this [21:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1269s) is just one of my vaults. I have like [21:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1270s) daily briefs that are here. I also like [21:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1272s) to save projects that are here. I'm [21:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1273s) going to put on screen some other things [21:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1275s) I like to save into my vault, which [21:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1276s) could be useful for you. So, I like to [21:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1278s) save like certain projects. So, in this [21:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1280s) way, like say at some point I actually [21:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1282s) want to build like this AI learning app, [21:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1284s) right? Like all this information is [21:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1285s) here. So, why is this useful? So, first [21:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1287s) of all, you can like read the things in [21:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1288s) your vault, which is very nice. Uh maybe [21:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1290s) you're like, "Wow, I wonder what it says [21:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1291s) over here." But on on top of that, your [21:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1293s) Hermes agent is also able to access this [21:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1295s) information that you stored into the [21:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1297s) vault. So, you can continue working on [21:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1299s) things from there. For example, I have [21:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1301s) like this food tracker PRD, uh which I [21:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1303s) made in which I wanted to track like the [21:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1306s) food that I'm eating because I'm too [21:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1307s) lazy to track my food, but I really [21:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1308s) should cuz I'm trying to get more in [21:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1310s) shape, you know? So, I wrote this PRD [21:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1312s) for this like app that I wanted to [21:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1313s) build, but I didn't actually like ever [21:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1314s) build it. So, what I can say here is, [21:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1316s) "Use Obsidian skill." Probably don't you [21:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1318s) actually need to like specify Obsidian [21:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1319s) skill, but I'm just going to do that [22:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1321s) just to make sure it's like very [22:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1322s) specific, "to grab the PRD for the food [22:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1324s) tracker and come up with a step-by-step [22:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1328s) plan for how I can implement the MVP [22:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1332s) version in 1 hour." Great. So, you can [22:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1334s) see that it's using the skill view and [22:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1336s) it's able to grab it. Okay, great. So, [22:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1338s) it came back and now it has a plan. So, [22:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1341s) it gives me the key MVP scope for 60 [22:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1344s) minutes. I should get like a photo of my [22:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1345s) food GPT-4 vision and Discord replies [22:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1348s) with macros, Obsidian JSON storage with [22:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1350s) the daily totals, and having specific [22:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1352s) commands like today log and goals I'm [22:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1355s) able to see what it is that I have been [22:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1357s) eating and logging. And I should not [22:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1359s) have weekly chronic corrected flow [22:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1361s) because I want to do this in like 60 [22:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1362s) minutes, right? It tells me what the [22:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1363s) tasks are and blah blah blah blah blah, [22:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1364s) etc. So, if I actually want to do this, [22:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1366s) then I can start implementing it. [22:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1367s) Anyways, not going to do that now, but I [22:48](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1368s) hope you can see why having this fourth [22:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1370s) level of an Obsidian second brain is [22:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1372s) really, really helpful. Especially as [22:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1374s) you do more work, you save more stuff, [22:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1376s) and there's more things that you would [22:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1377s) want your agent to be able to help you [22:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1379s) with. Okay, so there is one more topic [23:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1381s) left for your Hermes setup that will set [23:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1384s) the foundations so you can build so many [23:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1386s) amazing things. And that is open-source [23:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1388s) AI. [23:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1393s) Now, I want to make a caveat here. This [23:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1394s) is optional. If you are super baller and [23:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1397s) you're like totally cool just paying for [23:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1399s) like Anthropic Claude models or like [23:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1400s) other models through news for whatever [23:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1402s) and you're like willing to spend like [23:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1403s) hundreds of hundreds dollars, that's [23:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1405s) totally cool, okay? That's totally cool. [23:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1407s) I FELT THE STING AND RAN. But for me, I [23:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1409s) am not willing to spend that much money. [23:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1411s) So that's why I started using local AI [23:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1413s) models. Models that I have downloaded [23:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1415s) into my Mac Studio, runs completely [23:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1417s) locally, it's private, and everything is [23:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1419s) like just is contained within this Mac [23:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1421s) Studio, which is actually kind of crazy, [23:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1423s) right? That you can just like be able to [23:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1424s) own and use this like very powerful [23:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1427s) model. By the way, that is actually what [23:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1429s) I've been using this entire time [23:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1430s) throughout all of these like demos and [23:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1431s) stuff that we've been doing. This is a [23:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1433s) completely local model. Like when I use [23:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1434s) it, it's just on my machine. I don't [23:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1435s) need to pay for anything. It's free. So [23:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1437s) yeah, the one I'm using is a Qwen 3.6 [23:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1439s) 35B model. And I'm actually just going [24:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1440s) to put on screen some of the other local [24:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1442s) models that I do use for different [24:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1444s) things. Not going to go into too much [24:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1445s) more detail about that. The general [24:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1446s) consensus is that if you want to save [24:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1447s) money like running Hermes and agents, [24:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1449s) using local AI models is going to help [24:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1451s) reduce that cost substantially. And [24:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1453s) there are some really, really good local [24:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1455s) AI models now that honestly like we were [24:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1457s) seeing me do stuff, right? And it's it's [24:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1459s) like just like really, really good. So [24:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1461s) if you have the hardware and the ability [24:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1463s) of doing this, then I would recommend [24:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1464s) that you go for it. Now, the easiest way [24:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1466s) to use an open-source local model is to [24:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1468s) download Ollama, which is a model [24:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1470s) package manager. So you go to ollama.com [24:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1473s) and then click download. Then when you [24:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1474s) open it and you open the launch tab, [24:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1476s) there actually is Hermes agent here. So [24:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1478s) you can just copy-paste this terminal [24:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1480s) command. Go to your terminal, paste it, [24:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1482s) press enter, and you can select one of [24:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1484s) these to get started. It actually gives [24:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1485s) you recommendations. Or you can go to [24:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1487s) the tried and true path now and just [24:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1489s) say, "Hey Hermes, help me use Ollama to [24:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1493s) download open-source models and use them [24:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1496s) with you." Click enter and just follow [24:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1499s) the instructions. However, what I prefer [25:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1501s) to do is use something called llama.cpp. [25:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1503s) Without going into too much detail, [25:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1505s) llama.cpp is actually what Ollama uses. [25:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1508s) It just like wraps around it, so it's [25:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1509s) easier for you to use. But if you use [25:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1511s) the underlying thing itself, which is [25:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1513s) llama.cpp, it gives you direct control [25:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1515s) with the model, so you can tweak it to [25:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1516s) the way that you like it, and it's [25:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1517s) faster as well. Took me about like 30 [25:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1519s) minutes to set up, you know, again, [25:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1521s) using Hermes to help me like set it up. [25:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1523s) Got to do like some terminal stuff, but [25:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1524s) you know, after 30 minutes, I was able [25:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1526s) to have my model up and running, and [25:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1528s) it's been great. Would recommend. All [25:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1529s) right. Honestly, congratulations for [25:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1531s) making it until this part of the video. [25:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1533s) I know we've covered a lot today, but [25:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1534s) trust me, if you have that patience to [25:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1536s) set it up like this, and just like do it [25:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1538s) properly, you're going to get so much [25:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1539s) more out of your Hermes agent. It is [25:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1541s) amazing. [25:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1543s) >> [music] [25:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1545s) >> So, for the last section, I'm actually [25:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1547s) going to show you what you can build [25:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1549s) once you lay this foundation. I'm going [25:50](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1550s) to show you my multi-agent framework. [25:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1552s) This is my Discord, where I primarily [25:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1554s) build workflows and softwares with [25:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1555s) Hermes. So, let's actually build [25:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1557s) something together to show you how it [25:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1558s) works. Recently, I've been really into [26:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1560s) building these little desktop [26:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1562s) productivity learning apps. Like this [26:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1565s) one, for example, it allows me to just [26:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1567s) input a study plan or whatever it is [26:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1569s) that I'm doing, and then I can like [26:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1570s) check them off, and you know, yay, it [26:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1572s) tells me that it's complete. And most [26:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1574s) importantly, it saves all of this to my [26:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1576s) Obsidian vault. So, after I finish these [26:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1578s) plans, it would automatically save it, [26:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1579s) and I can actually see everything that [26:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1581s) I'm doing every day. So, let's build [26:22](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1582s) another one of these little companion [26:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1583s) apps today. I'm going to go here and [26:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1585s) say, "@Hermes, draft the specs for a [26:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1588s) simple Pomodoro app that has the same [26:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1591s) style as the roadmap tracker app. I want [26:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1595s) to be able to optionally [26:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1597s) input [music] what I'm working on, and [26:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1600s) then set the amount of time. I want the [26:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1602s) amount of time to be visual, so I can [26:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1605s) see [26:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1606s) it decreasing, like a visual timer. I [26:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1609s) also want things saved to Obsidian Vault [26:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1614s) as well. Click enter. [26:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1616s) Cool. So it looks like Hermes has picked [26:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1618s) it up. [27:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1621s) Okay, great. It gave this PRD and it [27:05](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1625s) looks good to me. So let's say yes. [27:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1628s) Queue it, please. [27:11](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1631s) This says that it is queued and it will [27:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1632s) let me know when it's ready or needs an [27:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1634s) input. Sounds good. And hey, look at [27:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1636s) that. Yay! Under the builds channel, we [27:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1640s) can see that the build is successful. [27:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1641s) All right, moment of truth. Okay, so it [27:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1645s) has been built. Let's try it out. Let's [27:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1646s) just say 1 minute and for the label, [27:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1649s) we'll just put test. [music] Click [27:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1651s) enter. Okay. So just to see that it's [27:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1653s) actually floating on top. So if I go to [27:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1656s) like Hermes for example or some other [27:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1658s) apps. Okay, so we know that it's always [27:40](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1660s) going to be on top, which is good. Uh [27:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1663s) yep, and we can also move it around to [27:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1664s) the side as well. [27:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1673s) Okay, that was so obnoxious. Let's go to [27:56](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1676s) Obsidian and there you go. 1 minute it's [27:58](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1678s) called label test and it's completed. [28:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1680s) Yay! [28:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1681s) So yeah, that is a full build uh using [28:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1684s) Discord. Since it is a multi-agent [28:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1686s) system, you can also come back and ask [28:08](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1688s) it to do other things as well. Like hey [28:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1690s) Hermes bot, draft the spec for some [28:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1693s) ideas of other desktop widget apps [28:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1697s) >> [music] [28:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1697s) >> that I can build. [28:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1699s) Et cetera. At the same time, you can [28:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1701s) also ask it, Hermes bot, uh draft the [28:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1703s) spec to change the colors [28:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1708s) of the Pomodoro app to more pastel, for [28:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1711s) example. Yep, and they're going to be [28:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1713s) working in parallel. Yeah, isn't that [28:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1715s) just kind of like mind-blowing? Like [28:36](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1716s) I've built so many different types of [28:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1718s) software and workflows using this [28:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1719s) multi-agent system. Once you get to this [28:41](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1721s) stage, Hermes also has a native [28:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1722s) orchestration via this Kanban board, [28:44](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1724s) which you you actually like orchestrate [28:46](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1726s) all of your different agents and [28:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1727s) coordinate them and make them like just [28:49](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1729s) super super optimized. So yeah, I've [28:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1731s) been having so much fun building with [28:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1733s) Hermes. So if you guys want to see [28:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1734s) another video where I go more in depth [28:57](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1737s) about this multi-agent system and other [28:59](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1739s) projects that you can be building, let [29:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1741s) me know in the comments if you're [29:02](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1742s) interested in that. If you are, I'm very [29:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1744s) happy to go more in depth into this. I'm [29:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1746s) going to put on screen now some of the [29:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1747s) things that I have my multi-agent system [29:09](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1749s) set up, more advanced things and skills [29:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1750s) and just like things that I'm doing [29:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1752s) right now that you can do, you can [29:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1754s) unlock set up your Hermes agent [29:16](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1756s) properly. What I'm particularly like [29:18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1758s) really into right now is actually using [29:19](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1759s) hardware and connecting hardware with my [29:21](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1761s) Hermes. So yes, super exciting. But for [29:23](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1763s) now, I think this is way enough to get [29:25](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1765s) you started. Thank you so much for [29:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1766s) watching until the end of this video. I [29:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1768s) hope this is helpful for you. I'm going [29:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1769s) to put on screen now a little quiz that [29:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1771s) will help you retain all of this [29:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1772s) information that we've covered. And let [29:34](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1774s) me know in the comments what you are [29:35](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1775s) planning to build with your Hermes. I [29:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1777s) will see you guys in the next video or [29:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_N84t1rUU0&t=1778s) live stream.
