LIVE: Hermes AI Agent Masterclass + Browser Agents + FREE with Qwen 3.6
A comprehensive tutorial on using Hermes AI Agent, demonstrating how it can automate various tasks like social media posting, web research, and content creation. The presenter shows how to set it up for free using Qwen 3.6 model and shares real-world examples of automations he's built.
Summary
The video is a detailed walkthrough of Hermes AI Agent capabilities and practical implementation. The presenter demonstrates how Hermes has replaced Claude for his automation needs and shows how to use it completely free by combining the GitHub installation with OpenRouter's free Qwen 3.6 Plus Preview API. He emphasizes that Hermes is designed specifically for agent use cases and is still only at version 0.6, suggesting significant future potential.
The tutorial covers multiple real-world use cases the presenter has implemented: automated posting to X/Twitter with generated images using Nano Banana 2, web research using Firecrawl to scrape Reddit for trending news, competitive analysis with scheduled tasks, and cross-platform social media posting to TikTok and Instagram. He demonstrates how Hermes can compound skills together, combining research, image generation, and posting capabilities into single workflows.
A significant portion focuses on practical implementation challenges and solutions. The presenter explains that Hermes requires training and feedback over the first week, with initial results being imperfect but improving through a self-learning feedback loop. He provides specific troubleshooting advice for common issues like context window overflow and system breaks, including terminal commands and Telegram chat controls.
The video concludes with advanced integration possibilities, including using Hermes with Paperclip for multi-agent hierarchies, browser automation through BrowserBase, and community skills through Hermes Hub. The presenter promotes his AI Profit Boardroom community for additional training and custom skill sharing.
Key Insights
- Hermes AI Agent is designed specifically for autonomous agent use cases and outperforms Claude for automation tasks, despite being only at version 0.6
- The system implements a closed learning loop architecture that takes notes and self-improves over time, with skills becoming more effective through continuous feedback rather than degrading like some other AI systems
- Initial implementation requires a week-long training period where the agent will perform poorly, but patience and consistent feedback lead to significant improvements in automation quality
- Skills can be compounded together to create complex workflows, such as combining web research, image generation, and social media posting into single automated processes
- The presenter demonstrates real measurable results from his automations, including social media posts generating thousands of views and comprehensive competitor analysis reports generated automatically

automate anything with Hermes agent today I'm going to be running through exactly how to automate pretty much anything with Hermes AI agent this is fully replaced over claw for me right now and all my best automations running through this and also the craziest thing about using Hermes agent is you can actually use it for free right now and I'm going to show you exactly how to do that first of all so if you don't know how to use Hermes agent you can install it with a quick install command from the github like this right so you can paste that copy and paste into your terminal you're good to go some people ask me should you…

NEW Nvidia Autonomous AI is WILD!! 🤯
Nvidia announced Nemo Clo, a new autonomous AI agent system that operates independently without continuous prompting. Powered by Nemotron 3 Ultra (a 550 billion parameter model), the system is five times faster and cheaper than previous versions, with OpenShell providing secure sandboxed execution.
Laguna XS 2.1: New FREE + Opensource Local AI!
Julian reviews Laguna XS 2.1, a new free open-source local AI coding model from Poolside that performs comparably to Qwen 3.6 and outperforms Claude Haiku on benchmarks. He demonstrates its practical capabilities by building landing pages and functional apps, highlighting its speed, offline functionality, and multiple deployment options through local setup, Claude Code, or OpenRouter's free API.
How to Run Hermes FREE Forever!
The video demonstrates how to run the Hermes AI agent for free using Gemma 4, a local open-source model from Google, with significant speed improvements through MLX optimization. The setup works on Apple Silicon Macs or via free APIs on Open Router, enabling autonomous agents to work offline and privately without subscription costs.
This NEW Chinese AI is INSANE! (FREE + Open Source!)
Long Cap 2.0 is a new open-source Chinese AI model from a food delivery app company that offers 1 million tokens of free context memory, beats GPT-4.5 on SWE bench pro benchmarks, and uses efficient parameter activation to reduce computational overhead while maintaining high performance.
Claude Code is now FREE: Here’s how…
Google's new Gemma 4 model running on Ollama is 90% faster on Apple Silicon, enabling free Claude Code usage locally without token costs. The setup requires three simple steps: downloading Ollama, Gemma 4, and installing into Claude Code, with alternatives available via OpenRouter API for non-Mac users.
