DeepSeek V41 Flash and Hermes Agent. I want to show you number one, how to connect it to Hermes, how to use DeepSeek V41 Flash inside Hermes Agent. So you can see we've got Hermes Agent ready to go over here, and we can plug it into all of our favorite workflows with DeepSeek. But the other cool thing about this is that you can actually get a free API, and you can use that as the brain with DeepSeek V41 Flash, and I'll show you how to do that in a second. So basically, with Token Harbor, for a limited time only, you can see here that you get DeepSeek V41 Flash free on the API. Why would you want the API for this? Because you can plug it in as a free brain into Hermes Agent and use it agentically, or you can just use a normal version of DeepSeek, which is probably better than this, but either way, you can use it for free. So let me guide you through exactly how to use it step by step. So what you're going to do, first of all, is you're going to go to Token Harbor. So tokenharbor.ai, this is where you can get the free API key. And you can see here, I've created one in my settings. I just created a free account and then signed in and they got the free API key. And once you've got that API key, as you can see right here, you can plug it into whatever you want, right? So for example, you can use it inside DeepSeek Harness. You can use it inside Hermes Agent, whatever you prefer.

Now, for me, I've already plugged it into DeepSeek Harness. It's pretty decent. So you can see we've got DeepSeek Harness over here inside our Agent OS. Link in the comments description if you want to get the Agent OS. And you can see here that we're using Token Harbor with the free API. Now, let's plug it into Hermes Agent as well. So the way that I like to do this is I like to create a separate profile for each brain that I use. When I say brain, I just mean, for example, API. So we've got GPT-6 Astra. We have the Researcher Agent. We have LFM 2.5 2.6b, which is a free local model. We've got GPT-56. And what we're going to do now is plug in Token Harbor, the V41 Flash into Hermes Agent. How do we do that? The easiest way that I've found, and you can get it ready made if you want inside the Agent OS system in the Air Profile Boarding, the easiest way I've found to set this up is basically, we're going to go inside Chat GPT, GPT-6 Astra.

We're going to say, OK, can you create a new profile for Hermes Agent with DeepSeek V41 Flash on Token Harbor so that I can test it out inside the Agent OS as a separate profile? Just make sure it actually works as well. And then you can see here I've added the API key and I said, can you set this up?

And also, one thing that's quite important to do here is we've got the documentation from Token Harbor on exactly how the AI can understand to use this. This is really important because it trains the AI on how to use that free API and set it up inside Hermes Agent. So we're adding the details right there. And if you're wondering, OK, where did you get that documentation from? So inside Token Harbor here, if you go to connect and then integration in the menu bar, you can see all the details and you can plug that into any AI agent that you prefer.

And then it basically teaches your AI agents how to use it. You can also see there's optional details here on how to connect it. You can use it inside like N8N, Goose, OpenClaw, whatever you want. But for me personally today, we're going to use it inside Hermes, Boomshack, Lacker. So it's now adding a new Hermes profile for Token Harbor. And by the way, if you're wondering, OK, is DeepSeq v4.1 Flash actually good? Let me show you some examples of what you created for me earlier today. So here's an example of a game we created. And I will say the outputs are super nice, right? Like it creates some pretty cool stuff, as you can see right here.

For example, we created this website as well. This is like a 3D generated website with a parallax scrolling and everything. It looks quite nice. And then, for example, we've got this full tool that we created, like Productivity Tool, where we can use it as a pomodoro timer. It's got the details of, you know, our progress, our streak so far, and our to-do list over here, and we can mark it as done. We can also import tasks or export them as well, or we can clear them all as well. So it creates like some really, really nice stuff, is basically my point here, and it's all inside one page. So if we now go back to JAT GPT Astra, you can see that it has now created the profile for DeepSeq 4.1 Token Harbor. So now what we're going to do, so we're going to go back to the Agent OS, we'll go over to the Home section, you see on the left-hand side here, we're going to refresh the page here, and then we are going to scroll down to DeepSeq 4.1 Token Harbor, as you can see right here. I'm just going to make sure it works. Sometimes it doesn't work when you set this up, so I just want to make sure this actually works.
