Hermes: Agent OS + Obsidian + Kanban + Paperclip

**Julian Goldie** (0:00)
Today, I'm going to show you how to turn one Hermes agent into a whole team. The secret is plugging it into your own agent operating system so that instead of one agent doing one little job at a time, you have a crew of them working together day and night whilst you sleep. One can plan, one can build, one can do all the work, all on their own. I'll even show you how to talk to them and how to control them out loud like your own personal Jarvis. So stick with me to the end, and I promise you'll walk away knowing exactly how to set this up along with Obsidian and a powerful memory system for your AI agents and the benefits of using something like Paperclip for AI agents versus having your own Kanban board as well. We'll be covering lots of different angles when it comes to Hermes agent and exactly how to use it. Let's get into it. So today we're going to answer some of the most interesting questions about Hermes agent and the Agent OS and how to use it, etc. And what are some of the best ways to get out of it? And this is based on some community questions we get inside the Air Profile Boardroom, because I know if people have these questions, then a lot of people who watch these tutorials will have these questions too. So let's just get straight into it. So the first question is from Jason, which is how do I get my Obsidian to look like the memory galaxy inside the mission control? So this is something we actually updated recently and you can see it right here. Basically, what this is, is a new feature inside the Agent OS system where we can basically see a galaxy of our memories plugged in together. So the stars that shine the brightest are the most recent memories. Now, this is really powerful because you can see visually what your Obsidian looks like from the perspective of your agents. You can click on any of these and actually see the memories and it just kind of interlinks everything together in a beautiful sort of visual way and it just looks cool and fun to look at. So how do you set this up?
So the way that I did it, there's two ways. So there's two ways here. Number one, you could ask Claude to just build this memory galaxy for you and give it some ideas.
But what we've actually done recently is build this inside the Agent OS, inside the latest version and you can get the latest version here and we update it daily with new updates. Now, one thing I'm just going to double check with the agent that built it, other instructions inside here for the memory galaxy as well for Obsidian. Just double checking it gets built out when people install this. So what we actually have here is the four Markdown file on how to set up and we'll add that inside the memory galaxy section as well. So we've added that inside the Agent OS. Now, for anyone watching, you might be wanting to get what memory system do we use here. So we actually use Obsidian. Obsidian is a free app that you can download and use locally. What it does, these are all basically Markdown files and folders that organize all of the memories and all the people that we work with, all the brands, etc.
And everything is color coded and it all revolves around me, right? And so this is kind of like a universe of memories and ideas and everything that we've done recently. Our AI agents create the Markdown files and update them and also read them. And then that gets plugged into a memory galaxy, like you can see. I've got a question here, which is, you have a tutorial to build this agent.
Yes, number one, I did build it with Claude.
So we've actually got Claude Desktop that builds it in the background. And then if you want the full setup, it's inside the classroom. Just go to the Agent OS section inside the AI Profit Boarding. Link in the comments description if you want to get that. So this is a great question as well from David. And David, by the way, I answer these questions really fast. Like David only asked this 46 minutes ago, and he was asking, you know, Paperclip and Hermes Kanban, can they be used together?
So if you were using Paperclip before Hermes, and then Hermes added Kanban, but now it's native with Hermes, does it make sense to have Paperclip and Kanban both assigning tasks? So here's a way that I would look at it. So number one, Hermes with Kanban is just designed for Hermes. So it's great if you're just coordinating teams of Hermes agents. Now, it's not as visual as Paperclip, and you can't have an org chart like Paperclip, but if you just have separate profiles working as a team together with Hermes, then you only need the Kanban. So for example here, you can see that inside this Kanban board, we have one for AI Profit Boardroom SEO, we can assign a task, it gets triaged, and then inside the done list, you can see all the stuff that was done by different AI agents, different profiles. So for example here, you got the SEO Writer. If we go over here, we've got the SEO Link Builder. And so it's a team of Hermes agents working together on a separate Kanban board, and then we can assign tasks, and those tasks get done across here. And so really powerful system. Now I would use Paperclip if you prefer to have an organization of agents, and also if you prefer like an org chart and a more professional dashboard that's more complex than Hermes Kanban. Also, if you have Claude and Hermes and Ovenclaw all working together, being orchestrated, then it's better to use Paperclip.
