00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:07.200
Hermes agent just had its biggest update yet, and my mind is blown. This is the update that I think officially

00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:22.135
puts it ahead of Open Claw. In this video, I'm going to cover the eight changes that have totally changed the way I use Hermes agent. If you stick with me until the end, you are going to have your own twenty four seven autonomous employee

00:00:22.215 --> 00:00:38.820
doing more work for you than you can ever expect in your entire life. Now let's lock in and get into it. So I don't do a ton of update videos, but this latest update was so good that I wanted to make a video around it. Let's go through these eight changes. The first update is dramatically

00:00:38.820 --> 00:00:39.860
improved

00:00:40.180 --> 00:00:50.075
memory. They added into Hermes agent what is called session recall. Now your agent can recall every single thing you've done and talked about by session.

00:00:50.235 --> 00:01:01.020
So you can do things like say, hey. What did we do or talk about last Thursday? Or, hey. What did we talk about two months ago? And it will be able to recall every single thing from every single session

00:01:01.260 --> 00:01:06.860
without having to use token calls at all. They implemented a very cool technology that doesn't rely

00:01:07.020 --> 00:01:22.445
on AI tokens to recall memory. It's just able to do it programmatically. Let me show you how this works. So if I'm coming in here and I wanna know what we did so if I'm coming in here and I wanna know what we did, like, between Monday and Wednesday last week. Right? Like, I'm working on a couple projects.

00:01:22.765 --> 00:02:01.910
I wanna see what we discussed last week. And by the way, again, you can do this. Hey. What were we discussing, like, two and a half months ago on this specific day at this time? But watch this. What were we working on on May 10? And boom. Here we go. Now it's going to go, and it's going to look at what we were doing May 10. Okay. On May 10, we did a deep equity research project together. You sent me a tweet with 40 tickers across 10 themes. I fanned the work. It told me look. It looks step by step. It told me exactly what we did and what I sent it. This improves the memory so much. One of the biggest complaints I get about OpenClaw and really every other AI agent out there is the memory.

00:02:02.070 --> 00:02:07.030
This takes it to the next level. So make sure you update your Hermes. All you gotta do is say, Hermes,

00:02:07.375 --> 00:02:08.175
update

00:02:08.735 --> 00:02:10.975
to the latest version.

00:02:11.055 --> 00:02:29.400
Hit enter. It'll update there, and you will get this new session recall in your memory, which will make it so much better at remembering everything you've done in the past. The next major feature I think is awesome is background task. Background tasks allow you to give your agent multiple tasks to do that it will work on in the background.

00:02:29.640 --> 00:02:38.985
One of the issues with these AI agents is when you give it a task, it's kind of busy now. You can't have it do other things. It's very hard to multitask

00:02:39.145 --> 00:02:46.585
unless you set up a multi agent approach. But to do a multi agent approach, you either need to spend a ton of money on your AI tokens,

00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:51.680
or you need to have a really good computer with a lot of agents running, not with background tasks.

00:02:51.840 --> 00:03:02.160
Now your agent can do multiple things at once without having to spin up a ton of agents. Watch this. So to give your agent background tasks, all you need to do is do slash background

00:03:02.385 --> 00:03:14.145
and then give it a task. So for instance, watch this. I'm gonna have a go off and research the top 10 AI agent startups from the last thirty days. So now it's getting to work. I'm gonna have it research

00:03:14.225 --> 00:03:39.325
my last 50 newsletters I sent out. Let me know which ones are working. And I'm gonna have it research the top trending YouTube videos in AI. Boom. And while it's doing all that, I'm gonna say, what time is the Spurs game tonight? And I'm gonna hit enter, and it's gonna be able to communicate with me even though it's doing all these background tasks at once. So this is allowing it to really do true multitasking

00:03:39.325 --> 00:04:01.405
without having to set up 20 different agents. And as you can see here, told me the time of the game. It's actually starting one hour from now, so I gotta finish this filming quickly. And then it went in and it found all these trending videos on Claude Code, Open Claw, Hermes agent. It did all those things at the same time while it's still working on the two other background tasks I gave it. This is the best way so far to do multitasking

00:04:01.405 --> 00:04:14.300
with your agent slash background. Give it as many tasks as you want, and you'll still be able to talk and communicate with your agent, which is amazing. The next two are closely related, and this is pretty cool. We'll go through this quickly. Grok 4.3

00:04:14.300 --> 00:04:22.780
OAuth. So Grok 4.3 just released in full. It's a solid model. It gets the job done. I think the advantage here is twofold.

00:04:22.940 --> 00:04:43.240
One is a lot of people are subscribed to Grok 4.3 because they're subscribed on x. So now you can double use that OAuth inside your Hermes agent if you wanna save a little money. Next update for Hermes agent, which is the fact that you can use Grok OAuth to search real time tweets. So this is awesome. If you use your Grok 4.3

00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:44.040
OAuth,

00:04:44.280 --> 00:04:51.960
you can have it search x for posts in real time. So find trending news, find trending topics, find trending content.

00:04:52.200 --> 00:05:00.745
It's really, really cool. All you need to do is add Grok 4.3 as a provider. So even if you're using Claude or Chad GPT

00:05:00.825 --> 00:05:02.585
as your orchestrator model,

00:05:02.905 --> 00:05:08.745
you can add in Grok 4.3 and say, hey. Anytime I ask you about posts, use Grok 4.3,

00:05:08.960 --> 00:05:15.120
and it will be able to use it as a muscle. So if you do a lot of research around content, which is something I do quite often,

00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:25.775
make sure to plug in your Grok 4.3 OAuth so you can do a lot better native research on tweets. The next awesome update in the Hermes agent is native

00:05:25.775 --> 00:05:27.295
codec CLI

00:05:27.295 --> 00:05:27.935
use.

00:05:28.095 --> 00:05:31.935
Now your Hermes agent can natively built into Hermes,

00:05:32.095 --> 00:05:33.615
use the codec CLI.

00:05:33.810 --> 00:05:36.770
So even if you're on ChadGBT 5.5

00:05:36.770 --> 00:05:39.970
or you are on Opus as your orchestrator,

00:05:40.130 --> 00:05:43.970
it can spin up as a worker a Codec CLI session,

00:05:44.130 --> 00:05:47.890
which basically means it can do its own vibe coding, which if you have

00:05:48.795 --> 00:05:57.115
subscription, will save you tons of money because now you don't have to have your Opus do a whole ton of coding for you, which will be really expensive. Or if you're already using ChadGBT

00:05:57.115 --> 00:05:59.195
as an orchestrator model,

00:05:59.275 --> 00:06:12.570
you'll get better results because it will use its native coding functionality. So all you need to do is go in, and you can even do this as a background task. So let's combine a couple of these things here and say, use codecs to build a three d

00:06:12.730 --> 00:06:14.730
first person shooter

00:06:14.810 --> 00:06:15.610
using

00:06:15.610 --> 00:06:16.890
three JS

00:06:16.915 --> 00:06:23.715
in a single HTML file. And I'm gonna hit enter on that. And now the background task is going. It's actually using

00:06:23.955 --> 00:06:27.235
the native codec CLI, which in my opinion

00:06:27.395 --> 00:06:51.275
is the best vibe coding tool out there right now to build this out. So now I can go have Hermes do other things, research other things for me. And in the background, Codec CLI is building out an entire application for us. You need to be using Codec CLI, especially if you do any sort of vibe coding with your AI agents. So really, really cool. It builds its own folder inside the Hermes folder where that project will live,

00:06:51.675 --> 00:06:56.955
and it's spinning up codec. So it's using a separate agent,

00:06:57.195 --> 00:07:15.435
your codec CLI to actually build it out, which is really cool. The next update I really love, number six here, is computer use. Your agent now can control your computer. Anything you can do on your computer, your agent can now do as well. It can see what you're doing. It can complete tasks. It can click around.

00:07:15.675 --> 00:07:24.795
Anything you want, it can work alongside with you. This is really cool. So for instance, if I wanna go in, I wanna say, look at my Notion

00:07:24.875 --> 00:07:29.780
calendar and let me know which events I have today

00:07:29.940 --> 00:07:31.460
and then add

00:07:31.540 --> 00:07:32.660
a new

00:07:32.980 --> 00:07:35.460
event for 7PM,

00:07:35.540 --> 00:07:40.260
and I hit enter on that, it is going to now let me pull open my calendar.

00:07:40.965 --> 00:07:51.365
It is going to let's look at this side by side here. It's using computer use as you can see here. It should see a couple different meetings here, meeting with Ben, meeting with Angela, meeting with Allison.

00:07:51.845 --> 00:08:01.380
And let's see here. There there it is. Seize the events. Note your 7PM slot overlaps the IO Gemini. Go on to Google IO tomorrow. Let's say,

00:08:01.860 --> 00:08:04.820
make an event called film

00:08:05.140 --> 00:08:09.380
video. I'm gonna hit enter on that. And now

00:08:08.815 --> 00:08:11.615
we should be able to watch it actually

00:08:12.255 --> 00:08:22.255
build an event on my calendar using my computer. So I'm not touching my computer at all right now. It is going in, and it is actually looks like it's going to add the event.

00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:29.880
So, boom, you see a new event. I haven't moved my hands once. It added the event to the calendar. It looks like there's one issue.

00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:31.720
It did hit for 06:45.

00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:38.625
So it did fifteen minutes early. So maybe telling it to add events might not be the best use case here. Point being is

00:08:38.865 --> 00:08:47.585
your agent can now control your computer and do whatever you need for you. One way I think this could really be helpful is if you're out and about on the road wherever

00:08:47.825 --> 00:09:07.220
and your computer's still running, you go on your phone, you go on Telegram on your phone and say, oh, man. I forgot I had this open. Can you do this for me real quick? Can you change this around for me real quick? Could you exit out of this for me real quick? And it'll be able to actually control your computer and do that for you, which is really, really cool. The next really awesome feature, we got two more, and these both are amazing, is

00:09:08.315 --> 00:09:09.835
native video

00:09:10.475 --> 00:09:11.275
generation.

00:09:11.595 --> 00:09:16.875
Now your Hermes agent can go text to video or even photo to video natively

00:09:16.955 --> 00:09:43.565
right through your chat. So if you say something like, generate me a video of a dragon, it'll be able to generate you an AI video. You don't have to go to other websites or other experiences to do it. As long as you have this hooked in to your Grok OAuth. So, again, this is another great reason to have Grok OAuth hooked in. You can use it to generate videos with Grok and Magic. So let's do this. Generate me a short video of a dragon

00:09:43.645 --> 00:09:45.165
fighting a horse.

00:09:45.485 --> 00:10:01.900
We're gonna hit enter on that. And now you can see it's using its video generate tool. It wrote its own prompt to do this. It's gonna generate us a video straight in Telegram here. No need to go to any other AI tool. No need to listen to the Higgs field chills all over YouTube having you go to that scam alleged website.

00:10:02.220 --> 00:10:03.740
It all happens native

00:10:04.195 --> 00:10:05.875
inside of Telegram.

00:10:06.115 --> 00:10:23.610
Look at this. Here you go. Red dragon versus a white horse. That's all done in Grok Imagine. All done right in Telegram. There you go. There's your AI generated video. Really cool. I mean, are you gonna ever need videos of dragons versus horses? No. But the fact that you can generate these videos natively

00:10:23.610 --> 00:10:26.330
without having to go to other websites is incredible.

00:10:26.730 --> 00:10:37.925
So you just set up your Grok OAuth. By the way, all you need to do that is in your terminal. Do Hermes tools. Hit enter in the terminal. Then you can choose the video generation

00:10:37.925 --> 00:10:38.645
tool,

00:10:38.805 --> 00:10:45.445
enable it, and then it'll just have you sign in to Grok, and you're good to go. Really, really easy to do. And the last one is auto

00:10:45.445 --> 00:10:46.405
Kanban

00:10:46.645 --> 00:11:10.905
task generation. This is a really cool one. Stick around for this. Now you can drop goals into your Hermes Kanban board, and it will auto turn that goal into a bunch of tasks and assign those tasks to sub agents. This is really cool. Watch this. So this is amazing. For anyone who hasn't played around with it yet, make sure you go in here. Go to your Hermes dashboard.

00:11:10.905 --> 00:11:13.385
You can just go in a terminal, say Hermes dashboard.

00:11:13.545 --> 00:11:15.305
Then you click on Kanban.

00:11:15.305 --> 00:11:16.860
Once in Kanban,

00:11:17.020 --> 00:11:19.740
you can start adding tasks to your triage.

00:11:19.900 --> 00:11:26.140
And what's going to happen is whatever tasks you add to your triage, Hermes will automatically take that task,

00:11:26.460 --> 00:11:28.060
break it into subtasks,

00:11:28.355 --> 00:11:30.435
and then assign those subtasks

00:11:30.595 --> 00:11:36.995
to all your different agents. So if you have multiple agents, multiple sub agents, they'll get assigned, and they'll get to work

00:11:37.235 --> 00:11:47.830
on your task. Watch this. So I'm gonna go into triage. I'm gonna say new task. I'm gonna say script me a video for a Hermes master class,

00:11:48.390 --> 00:11:49.510
then design

00:11:49.510 --> 00:11:50.950
a thumbnail.

00:11:51.190 --> 00:12:14.110
And I'm going to let's see. That's all I'm gonna say, use the Garak Imagine for that. I'm gonna say create. Now the task is in triage. Watch what happens in a second here. And boom. Look at this. Automatically in To do went script me a video for Hermes agent. Another one went write full master class video script. Another one one did generate Hermes master class thumbnail.

00:12:14.110 --> 00:12:17.550
So it took my task. It broke it into

00:12:17.710 --> 00:12:18.830
subtasks,

00:12:18.910 --> 00:12:33.225
and now they're all in To Do. And as you can see here, each are assigned to a different sub agent. So each are gonna get that task now. This is amazing. It's gonna get to work. And this is great because if you have big lofty tasks,

00:12:33.465 --> 00:13:13.980
all you need to do is go in, go into your Kanban board, add them to triage. And if you have a list of 10 of them, you can just put them in, and Hermes will go and just break them all down into their little components and build them out for you. My favorite way to use this is every morning I wake up. I get my to do list. I write this little to do list down here every single morning. I take those tasks. I put it in a triage. I hit enter. I go make my coffee. By the time I come back, I have, like, 40 different subtasks that all my agents are just working on. Saves me so much time. It is awesome. These were the big updates.
