R to @AlexFinn: 🔶 SET UP
First thing you need to do is get it installed
DO NOT use a VPS. Use a local device like a Mac Mini or old laptop
Go to Hermes's website and copy the install command into your terminal
This will put you through onboarding. Now you need to make some decisions...

R to @AlexFinn: 🔶 Models and messaging
At the moment Claude Opus 4.8 is the best model for Hermes
If you want to save money, you can go with ChatGPT 5.5 $20 plan. Very usable model
Next, you need to choose your messaging service. I highly recommend Telegram. Easiest way to message your Claw

R to @AlexFinn: 🔶 Customizing your Hermes
Time to put your agent to work
Hermes learns and grows with you, but it needs to understand who you are first
Brain dump everything about you including your goals, ambitions, interests, and career
This will give your Hermes super important context

R to @AlexFinn: 🔶 Reverse prompt
Now that Hermes knows everything about you it's time to REVERSE PROMPT
Reverse prompting is when you ask what an AI can do for you, instead of you telling the AI what to do
Steal this prompt: "based on what you know about me and my tasks, how could you help?"

R to @AlexFinn: 🔶 Automate your life
Your Hermes will give you a list of tasks it can do for you. Choose 1 and watch your agent work
Once you're satisfied with the task, you can reverse prompt again and add more scheduled tasks
If you're looking for inspiration, here's 3 tasks mine does👇

R to @AlexFinn: 🔶 Proactive app builder
Every night while I sleep I have my Hermes vibe codes me an app
Hermes is fantastic at vibe coding
Every morning I wake up with a prototype I can play with, or even turn into a business if I want
Ask your Hermes to do this every night while you sleep

R to @AlexFinn: 🔶 Content creator
This one is more advanced. But I had my Hermes train a LoRA on hundreds of my video scripts on my DGX Spark
A LoRA is basically a plugin for an AI model, customizing it for you
Now my local model sounds exactly like me, and can generate content in my voice

Uma das coisas mais curiosas da tecnologia é que decisões aparentemente técnicas quase sempre escondem decisões econômicas e políticas.
Não estou dizendo que usar a Amazon esteja errado. Estou dizendo que, quando dinheiro público entra na equação, a sociedade deveria conseguir responder perguntas simples:
Por que esse fornecedor?
Cadê quem pode explicar por que cada escolha foi feita?

RT by @Apenasam: O PCC e o CV não começaram a movimentar bilhões na semana passada, não começaram a lavar dinheiro ontem, não começaram a influenciar mercados ilegais após a decisão dos EUA.
A classificação não criou o problema, ela apenas tornou impossível fingir que ele não existia.
