Agent OS: FREE Coding + Hermes Is INSANE!

Full transcript

Today we're going to be answering some of the latest questions on the agent operating system, how to build them, how to get the most out of them. We've already built in HY3 that just dropped. This is a new open source model from China, Hanyuan 3 from Tencent, and that's creating some pretty nice stuff. So we've built that in.

We've also got some new features, for example, like we've got OmniRoot, which allows you to code for free. Open source project, pretty amazing. Roots across like 90 different models. We have our memory system built in here.

Some people are like, what is an agent operating system? So it's a place where you can plug all of your agents in one place, have everything one click away. And the great thing about this is that you can build custom workflows. So for example, we have a voice agent with Hermes, Hermes Apollo over here.

We have Hermes Oracle, we have Hermes Astros, and every single powerful use case for AI automation that I personally have, I can just build as a workflow here. We even, for example, have this email outreach tool that can generate leads for us on the spot and can easily send the emails and manage your inbox too for us using Hermes agent. And these are all custom workflows we've designed from scratch based on what we actually think would be useful here and how to get the most out of this stuff. So what we're going to talk about today is like the best ways to use it, how to troubleshoot some of the issues that some members have with this stuff, and also how to get the most out of this.

So we're going to get straight into some of the latest questions we've got here. So the first question that we got here was from M Jordan. And I don't know if that's any relationship, but basically we've got a question here which is, has anyone successfully found an agent that can automatically edit product listings from Shopify and successfully publish them into Amazon, for example? So I think if you want to publish directly to Amazon, I don't use Amazon that much, but I have found an API for sellers.

So this might be useful for sellers and you can just give the API to your agent and then set up a tool to auto post for you. And then for using agent workflows, I think you could quite easily set that up using their API. They've actually got a CLI for Shopify so that you can edit postings directly. So Shopify have tried to make it really easy to use AI agents with their platform and that's why they've got the CLI.

And then for editing and posting to Amazon, you could use something like the Amazon API that we've posted above. That's the way that I would do it. So I would give both of those APIs to your agents, describe exactly what you want, and then you could actually even build that into a custom workflow inside our agentic operating systems. Another question from M Jordan was, what AI agent would you use to convert a Shopify store into WordPress?

So the way that I would do this is I would actually use a Shopify CLI, get the code from Shopify, and then with a combination of either Claude or Shopify CLI, you could ask it to rewrite it and export it to your WordPress import. And then what you can do is take the code that you previously had on Shopify, use the CLI to convert that into a WordPress website, and then import it into WordPress. If you're not sure how to do that, it's okay because your agents can handle the 80-20 of it. So you either want to use Shopify CLI or Claude.

So JW was talking about Fable 5. So Fable 5 is about to expire from the subscription, so that means that in the future if you want to use Fable 5 with Claude, you'll have to pay. And so right now it's free on the subscription, in the future you have to pay. And JW says, everyone is scrambling to use Fable 5 before it expires tomorrow.

Are you going to help create different prompts or setups for AgentOS that you'll share at a later date with us we can use with a mixture of agents to have similar performance? So we've already set up Fusion, Sakana, Fugu, and a mixture of agents inside the AgentOS system so that you can get similar outputs in a simplified way using the tools inside there. So for example, if you go to mixture of agents here, you'll see that you have access to Hermes mixture of agents inside there, which can achieve similar levels to something like Fable 5. Then we also have, for example, Fusion over here, so we can use panels as well.

And we can also use Sakana, Fugu, and those are three different options for getting like Fable 5 level benchmarks. You know, based on the benchmarks they've done, you can achieve pretty good outputs with this stuff. Now when it comes to prompting, with the prompts, there's no real need for special prompts because most of these models are at a point where they don't need special prompts, they just need you to describe what's on your mind. So for example, the way that I prompt Fable 5 or the way that I prompt mixture of agents is not really any different from any other model out there, because what's different is the actual outputs and the quality of intelligence you get from these models.

So you don't need to do anything special with the prompting, you just need the right systems, which we've already built into the agent OS. There are some skills that will make your agents better, but you can't really use skills with panel models or panel systems like mixture of agents, because it's just a one-shot prompt, it's not like anything special. This is interesting, so Daniel was asking about like whisperflow style apps and a few recommendations were for handy on github. This isn't something I've tested out yet, but it looks really good and you can basically use AI so that you don't need to type, you just explain what you want and it types out for you, and it's a free open source project.

Now I've not tested it out, but actually that looks really good. I currently use whisperflow, so this might be a good upgrade. Jose was asking about how to use Hermes for creating like carousels and that sort of thing, something I don't actually automate with Hermes, but I actually saw this skill that looks interesting called open carousel, and that looks like it can create instagram style content for you using Claude, but I think you could also give it to Hermes as well as a skill. Looks like it's currently designed for Claude, but I think you could probably give it to Hermes as well.

The thing that I would do before you install it is look through the skill md file, check it's legit, run it through Claude, make sure it's legit, don't install anything that you're not comfortable with, but as a starting point that looks pretty interesting. Kansu was asking about Omniroot, so how to use Omniroot inside an agent operating system. Now if you're not sure what Omniroot actually is, basically it's a system where you can code for free and it runs through like 90 free providers, which means that it doesn't run out of tokens, you can continue coding with it, it's pretty simple and easy to use etc, and we can just ask it to build stuff and actually build stuff over here, and we'll build that into the agent os. Now it's a free open source project.

Now you might be wondering, okay how do you plug that into the agent os? So when you get the zip file from us, it's inside the install folder in section number 28, or you can go directly to the github which you can see over here, and then install it directly too. Benjamin was asking about what are the best ways to use Fable5 right now? So obviously it's only available on the subscription for a couple more hours, what are the best ways to use it?

For us we've actually been building our HY3, Tencent HY3, as a new coder inside the agent os, and then we actually set up new benchmark scores on GoldieBench as well to test out. From what I'm seeing so far, it's okay, it's not like as good as GLM 5.2 as you can see right here, like even when it's coding stuff out it still feels super buggy, but it's worth testing. I think if you had a choice between open source models now, I would still go with GLM 5.2. We had a question here from Daniel, and Daniel was saying, you know, he wants to get his first client, what are the best ways to do this?

How can you make it happen? So for me, when I'm trying to get clients, I try to look at the inputs to get the outputs, okay. So for example, when it comes to cause and effect, what actions can I take today to get more clients? And I try and look at the numbers as a formula.

So for example, that could be how many videos can I create today that would attract clients? How many emails do I need to send to get my first client? How many calls or outbound messages do I need to send? And I would just keep working on that formula and iterating it until you finally get the number of actions required to get the result you want.

So for example, when I was getting my first clients, I used to use Upwork and we used to send about 10 to 20 proposals per day to get one new client every single day. And so once we figured that out, we just quickly stuck to that formula and gradually grew it until we could expand the number of clients we got as well. And that's what I'd recommend for you is just look at what actions are you taking today and how many of them are required to get the number of clients you need. We also had some questions about Hermes Astros.

So Hermes Astros, if you're not familiar with it, is a custom workflow we built here as you can see. Basically what it can do using the Google Workspace API is it can monitor certain keywords based on your competitors and then recommend ideas for content based on that. And you can customize this to whatever industry or workflow you're trying to do this for. So you can see some examples right here and it basically monitors certain keywords, gives us ideas of the angles and unique titles we could create around this content.

And then from there, we can plug that into our video agent, Notebook LEM or SEO content as well. So it's a pretty powerful system. I've not seen anyone else build this, but it is really, really useful for just figuring out how to reach the right types of topics in a way where you don't have to go off and do the research yourself. Definitely worth using.

This is like an automated competitive research system to quickly find new content ideas for you. Josia was asking for inspiration when it comes to Fable 5. What are we doing? So for me personally, I was just building out new workflows inside the agent operating system.

I think the best place to start if you need inspiration is to look at GoldieBench. You can check out some of the creations we've made there and get some ideas on what we can do. So GoldieBench basically analyzes all the latest models and we've got Fable 5 on there and it's built some pretty insane stuff, some pretty amazing things right here. So if you need some inspiration and then also I would just look at what are you spending your time on right now and then how can you automate that with Fable 5.

And even if you build yourself one single tool, it's well worth it. So we've got a question from Aaron about NVIDIA's NemoClaw which I haven't heard many people talk about actually for a long time. So I remember when that was all the hype and it feels like a long time ago. It was probably only about two or three months ago.

So when it comes to NVIDIA NemoClaw, yes you need NVIDIA to run it as far as I'm aware. You wouldn't run it on Apple. I think from what I've seen inside the community, so Aaron's question is has anyone incorporated this into their AI setup and is it worth it? I haven't seen anyone using NVIDIA's NemoClaw but what I have seen people use is Hostinger as a VPS which runs in a similar way and then you can sandbox your VPS with Hermes or OpenClaw and that works pretty nicely.

People have actually set up a VPS with the AgentOS as well to sandbox it and there's some really good tutorials which I'll link to. All right so that's pretty much it when it comes to Agent Operating System questions. The thing that I would say for you if you're watching this is definitely set this up because it will change everything for you. It's such a powerful workflow, it's so easy to set up.

I mean you might think okay that's great for you Julian, you do Agent Operating Systems all day, you've built them out etc but actually I'm not technical. I don't code, I don't understand HTML but I can build a full system like this and I think learning HTML at this point is useful but you definitely don't need to do it. So you can see here for example so many people are setting this up and getting awesome results of it and so if you haven't set this up you don't need to be technical, it doesn't use up new tokens, you can actually have free models like Omniroot plugged into this system and it's pretty easy to set up.
