@clairevo
All the Hermes/OpenClaw nut jobs were right. Very depressing realisation.
@jessethanley
This is so good. I gave my hermes a budget and now I’m getting ‘gifts’ in the mail. Highly recommended.
@tobi
Some more dumb questions about Codex: 1. I use it on my primary laptop which I don't keep on all the time so I don't like setting up cron jobs there. Can I set up the app on my Mac Mini too and run all the cron jobs through that? I have a feeling it's gonna replace OpenClaw/Hermes for me then. 2. Is the image gen feature on Codex basically free? It's using ChatGPT Images 2? 3. Anyone tried generating images first and then using @HeyGen hyperframes to generate videos?
@petergyang
Please someone explain to me why should I use Hermes if I already use Codex, Claude etc What could I do with it?
@T_Zahil
Printing Press library now native in @openclaw and @NousResearch Hermes skill stores. Just tell your agent. I recommend ESPN and Flight Goat as starting cli/skills to install. @ppressdev. Plus 200 more native tools now.

Introducing: Tesla CLI/Claude Code Skill/OpenClaw and Hermes skill from the @ppressdev. - "Unlock the car" and "turn on dog mode" as one-line commands, callable from your phone or laptop - Agent: "during winter school days, defrost my car at 7:50 every weekday before school dropoff" - Charging cost ledger - Supercharger queue watcher pageable from an agent - Your signing key stays on YOUR host - Much more Fun fact: when I got my first ClawdBot, Tesla was one of the first skills I made. But I could only get it to work with my older Tesla. Now that I have the Printing Press, I was able to build what I wanted soup to nuts and now it's here.
