Hermes Agent OS Is INSANE (FREE!)

How to Build Your Own Agent Operating System

How to Build an Agent Operating System (Agent OS) in 5 LayersThis episode explains how to build an “Agent OS,” a single system where multiple AI models and agents (like Claude and Hermes) work together with shared context to automate tasks such as lead generation, outreach, news research, SEO, video, and more. The creator describes replacing “14 scattered tabs” with a five-layer stack—foundation (one dashboard), memory (a shared Obsidian vault), routing (send each job to the best model, often free/local), agents (parallel execution via workflows like Kanban), and loop engineering (feedback that improves the system daily). Built from scratch in about eight weeks with minimal added cost beyond existing subscriptions, the system can be customized for any industry and is shared with a 3,900-member AI Profit Bot community.00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU] What Is Agent OS02:50 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=170s] Why It Beats 14 Tabs05:20 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=320s] Five Layer Overview06:18 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=378s] Layer 1 Foundation07:36 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=456s] Layer 2 Memory09:33 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=573s] Layer 3 Routing12:04 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=724s] Layer 4 Agents13:49 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=829s] Layer 5 Loop14:36 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=876s] Get The Full Setup15:51 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJz2JnnyhMU&t=951s] Final Wrap Up

Hermes Agent OS Q&A: Skills Migration, Best Settings, SEO Automation, Memory, and Mobile AccessThe episode answers recent community questions about the Hermes Agent Operating System, which unifies tools like Hermes Oracle, a studio for image/video/voice generation, GLM 5.2 in quad code, Open Montage for AI film creation, and a memory system. It explains that Claude CLI skills can be transferred to Hermes on a VPS by moving the Markdown skill files, though smoothness may vary by API. Five recommended configurations include Hermes Oracle, media generation with Groq or Wolf, an outreach inbox for sending emails, Firecrawl for web search, and using /learn to ingest guides into skills. It also covers Windows installation guidance, SEO keyword research/content generation/deployment within Agent OS, model fallback via backup keys and auxiliary task fallbacks, hosting AI sites on Netlify, mobile access via Tailscale or Cloudflare, and a simple three-step SEO automation prompt flow, plus an Omi-to-Obsidian-to-memory workflow and how to view updates, changelogs, and update files.00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI] Agent OS Overview00:50 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=50s] Community Q&A Kickoff01:10 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=70s] Migrating Skills Setup Tips02:57 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=177s] Windows Installation Options03:44 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=224s] Showcase 360 Tour Build04:28 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=268s] Automating SEO in Agent OS05:23 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=323s] Model Fallbacks Multi Agent06:47 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=407s] Fable Five Builds Benchmarks07:30 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=450s] Using Local Files Screenshots07:51 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=471s] Running Agent OS on Phone09:09 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=549s] Hosting Sites with Netlify10:01 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=601s] Simplest SEO Automation Flow10:43 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=643s] Omi Obsidian Memory Pipeline12:26 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=746s] Updating Agent OS Changelog13:37 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cWw5OakfsI&t=817s] Wrap Up Join Community

Gemma 4 is now 90% FASTER + FREE + Local 🤯

Gemma 4 Just Got Up to 90% Faster on Mac (Ollama + MLX)Google’s Gemma 4 has a new update that makes it up to nearly 90% faster on a Mac when run through Ollama using MLX, enabling much faster local model performance. The script explains that Gemma 4 is free on Ollama and MLX is a free open-source project, and that Ollama now supports MLX models directly so you can install via a simple command after updating. The creator reports seeing roughly 60% faster speeds in many tests, with a jump from about 50 to 95 tokens/sec in a shown comparison, and says coding prompts can hit the 90% boost. They also show Gemma 4 integrated into their Agent OS (with Hermes), letting it build and preview simple apps locally and autonomously.00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII] Gemma 4 Speed Boost00:49 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=49s] MLX and Ollama Setup01:58 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=118s] Agent OS Integration02:33 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=153s] Real Speed Benchmarks04:07 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=247s] Live Build Demo05:27 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=327s] Why It Runs Faster05:56 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=356s] Install in Terminal06:13 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=373s] Projects Built With Gemma07:25 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=445s] Limits and Best Uses07:56 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=476s] Free Local Builds Anytime08:41 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=521s] Agent OS and Boardroom Pitch09:43 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=583s] Community and Support Features10:13 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=613s] What Members Are Building10:41 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTXdg-V4MII&t=641s] Wrap Up and Thanks

How to Run Hermes FREE Forever!

Run Hermes Free Forever: Gemma 4 MLX Update Makes It Up to 90% Faster (Ollama + Apple Silicon)Julian demonstrates how to run Hermes for free using a new Gemma 4 update with Ollama on Apple Silicon via MLX, claiming up to 90–95% faster local performance compared to before. He shows Gemma 4 set up as a free profile inside an agent OS, with examples like quickly responding to prompts, building a simple to‑do list app, and using Hermes’s /learn command to turn a tutorial into a reusable skill that runs in the background. For non‑Mac users, he notes an alternative: using a free OpenRouter API option for the 31B model. He explains that local models keep workflows private, offline, and suitable for long-running agent loops without token or subscription costs, and he briefly outlines setup by updating Ollama and selecting the newer MOX Gemma 4 models.00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg] Run Hermes Free Faster00:33 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=33s] Agent OS Demo Setup01:14 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=74s] Free API Alternative02:08 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=128s] Hermes Learn Skill03:40 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=220s] Install Ollama Gemma05:20 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=320s] Loops and Subagents06:55 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=415s] Local Loop Engine08:05 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=485s] Easy Commands Objections08:58 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=538s] Wrap Up and Offer09:20 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=560s] Boardroom Walkthrough10:35 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_qZ5Q9jhYg&t=635s] Final Thanks
