Introducing my Hermes "Alan's way". (The Grokbot killer)
- Grokbot style UI using telegram API (the most consistent gateway for Hermes with built-in bot feedback and signals)
- The Hermes bots live on my VM but now optimally run tasks on my macbook while it's running. 1 home for the bots with multiple workplaces - just like grokbot.
- chatGPT app-style browser and agent browser use. (I was addicted to the browser in the chatGPT app - and this is my cure)
- Controllable window into the bot's virtual desktops with near-seamless handoff between local -> remote. I can shut my laptop and certain tasks will just auto route to the VM.
- native proactivity mode for the lead bot so it can oversee the other bots, and consistently come up with useful things to do (24/7). It's deeper than just a skill or cron job.
- its Telegram so I can message on any device and it never breaks (hard to say about other mobile app gateways).
- Still works with the main production version of Hermes, as it's just a companion app and the telegram gatewy.
Grokbot, Dot, Muse, or Instinct can never beat this.
Work
A Hermes bot team on Telegram that shifts work between laptop and VM
Alex Hansen runs Hermes agents behind a Telegram gateway with a window into their virtual desktops. Tasks run on the MacBook while it is open and route to a VM when the lid closes, and a lead bot keeps finding useful work around the clock.
