Agent Operating System Q&A: Model Restrictions, Local AI, Hermes Jarvis, SEO & Video AutomationThe episode answers community questions about the Agent Operating System and how to get the most from it, highlighting Hermes Oracle for news and SEO automation, Hermes Jarvis as a voice-activated agent, and managing all agents and client instances from one interface using separate profiles. It argues that gated frontier models like GPT 5.6 previews and the removal of Fable 5 matter less than building robust systems that can swap models in and out, including using alternatives like Fusion or Sakana Fugu and open-weight local options such as GLM 5.2. The host discusses a high-volume posting strategy with strict quality control, rising demand for local model setups for privacy and cost, automating video production via a video agent and avatar workflow training, using Paperclip for fact-checking and multi-agent teams, Windows support, SEO article generation and deployment, UI improvements to the Kanban board, and examples of AI-assisted game creation, while promoting the AI Profit Boardroom for daily Q&A, tutorials, coaching calls, and the Agent OS zip file.

Today we're going to be running through the latest questions that I've had about the agent operating system, how to use it, how to get the most out of it. You know, we've got stuff like Hermes Oracle in there, which pulls in the latest news and then we can automate SEO with it. We've got Hermes Jarvis, which is a fully automated voice agent for Hermes, and it can build and automate anything that we want. We have all of our agents in one place, and this is even more important now because if you look at the latest Frontier models, for example, like GPT 5.6, which is only available in preview, we haven't got access to it, and there's no guarantee that we will get access to it. It's the same with, for example, something like Fable 5 that got put out there and now it's taken down again. My point here is that it doesn't matter about the model because we have to live in a world where we need great systems instead so that we can get more out of our models. And that's exactly what we're building with an agent operating system so you can have all your agents in one place. Now, I'm going to cover some of the top questions and some of the best ways to set this up based on the community questions we've had recently. So let's get straight into it. This is the AI Profit Boardroom, and this is where I answer questions every single day. And we're just going to jump straight into some of the latest questions we've had about the agent aware. So let's get straight into this. The first post we actually had was from Gene, and Gene was saying, you know, OpenEye is going to limit the release of GPT 5.6. I just heard that OpenEye are facing the same security concerns about their new model GPT 5.6, similar to the issues faced by Anthropix Mythos Fable 5. OpenEye will have to restrict it and also be limited to a few clients and partners. Now, this is crazy and unfair, he says. The USA is slowly becoming less liberal with its releases of models. Now, here's the way that I look at it, right? Really, I don't think it matters too much about models because for 99% automations, you don't need access to GPT 5.6. You don't need access to Fable 5, but you do need a great system. And so one of the best things about the agent operating system is that you can easily be very anti-fragile and flexible to whatever comes out next. So, for example, if Claude Fable 5 drops again, we can plug it back into the system. When GPT 5.6 comes out in a few weeks, we can plug that into the system inside Codex. When they're not inside there, no problem. We can use something like Fusion or Sakana Fugu to get Fable 5 level intelligence and build and automate anything they want. So, it's not ideal. I can understand why they're doing it. I will say as well, like when you've got systems, for example, like GLM 5.2. GLM 5.2 is a Chinese model. It's open way, it's free to host locally, and it's completely open source. And these Chinese models, I think, are going to, you know, if this situation keeps going on for the rest of the year, Chinese AI models are probably going to overtake US because they're just releasing the models whilst the US is restricting the models. And that's a bit of a problem, right? If you look at Anthropic, if you look at OpenAI, they're trying to stay competitive, but they can't if they can't even release the technology they create to the whole public. So, if their whole business relies on releasing these models and they can't, that is a huge issue. And I don't know how long that's going to last. We've got another question, which is interesting. It's about my posting strategy with stuff like on social media, for example. And the question that Ryan asks is like, you know, how often do you post? Is it an SEO strategy? What are you trying to do? So, we actually have a training on this here. The reason that we post more often is just because if we get more attention, we tend to get more leads in. And so, as long as you keep the quality high, more posts equals more attention equals more leads. It's the same, for example, if you look on X as well, we've recently ramped up the posts that we create. And that's gradually increasing over time. If you look over the last few years, as we've posted more and more, we tend to get more and more impressions. So, it's just one of those situations where as long as the quality stays high, more posts equals more attention. Now, at the same time, if you're just using AI without quality control and everything, that would be a problem. So, we make sure that we give our team a lot of feedback, a lot of coaching, a lot of support on how to make sure the posts are as good as possible. And we set up really good systems and prompts to make sure that the quality is high. But yeah, we tend to find like volume works pretty well. One of the best things as well about this community is like people are just getting awesome results. So, you can see an example of Gil who posted about the weekly coaching call and how good it was. It's pretty insane. Pretty insane. Again, there's some great people inside there and it's just a great place to network and meet other cool people building similar things. Giovanni was posting about local models and whether he thinks, you know, whether it's something good that the clients would be interested in. So, for example, offering a local setup for clients. Offering to set up local models for clients with AI and help them figure out how to build systems around this stuff. And I'd say this is becoming more and more in demand right now. So, if you look at the rise of local models, I think it's becoming more popular over time. These local models are becoming better and better. And also, if you look at a lot of clients, they don't want their data in the cloud. And so, having a system where they can use free local models, which keeps the cost down, and with local models, your data doesn't go to a server. Well, that's a huge benefit to them. So, if you become an expert at setting up local models, that's a huge advantage that you could offer to clients too. So, Lenny is asking about how to efficiently manage all of his Hermes agents. So, he said he recently learned how to use Hermes and wants to deploy an instance for each of his clients. He's looking for a way to control all of these Hermes instances as well as the subagents from a single interface without having to constantly switch between Docker or VPS servers. So, one thing that we've set up, and this might be great for your clients, is inside our agent operating system, we have separate profiles for each API. Separate agent profiles inside Hermes agent. You could do the same, but for your clients. You could have separate agent profiles for each one of your clients, and then you just manage it inside your agent OS. So, if we go to the agent operating system here, and we look inside the Hermes section, you can see we have each of these different profiles like Julian, Jarvis, Default, Local, North Mini, GLM 5.2, SEO Lead, etc. These are all different profiles that you can set up with Hermes agent. And so, what you could do is you could have each of these profiles for each one of your clients. And that way, you could manage everything from one place. You don't need to switch between different VPSs, and you can just have it in one setup. And if you want to get the full agent OS from us, we've got it inside the AI Profit Boardroom. Link in the comments description, or just go to the AI Profit Boardroom.com. We've got a video tutorial, the last update date, and the zip file on how to use it. So, Amir is asking about how to automate video and how to get started on this. So, you know, there's many options out there. You've got like Higgs field and stuff like that. For us, we actually have a video agent inside the agent OS, as you can see right here. And it can fully edit videos in like one single prompt with the avatar, the B-roll, the research all put together. So, that's one single option. Also, based on my workflows, we actually have a setup here for AI avatar videos. So, you can find this training right here. And it's got a full step-by-step operating procedure. It basically shows you step-by-step R process for getting results with this. And that's something we've tested relentlessly. So, there's two options for that. Number one, you could use the training here. And number two, you could actually use the video agent inside the agent OS. This is an interesting one. So, Jay was talking about using a fact-checker agent inside Paperclip. And basically, its job is just to fact-check stuff before you publish it. I think that's an interesting way to use Paperclip. The way that I've done it in the past is like we have teams of agents. And like if we're working on a project, we can just assign all of our agents to work on one single task. And then we can see everything that they've done and they build together. But using it for a fact-checker is quite interesting too because it's kind of a loop where you create the work with AI agents. Then you fact-check it with Paperclip. And then that goes round and round and self-improves and self-iterates. So, that's a pretty cool way to use it as well. I like the idea of that. Also, Ronald was asking about can you use the agent OS on Windows? Yeah, obviously you can. So, we've actually set up the installation file so that you can use it on Windows. Or you could use it, for example, on Mac or Linux. Whatever you prefer. So, it's all inside the SIF file so you can quickly install it for whatever platform you're building on. So, Gil was asking about Hermes Jarvis. Now, this is a voice-activated version of Hermes. You can see it right here. So, for example, if I say, okay, open up Google, it's going to open up. Right? If we actually scroll down on the page, you can see the full conversation history. And we can also build things in real time as you can see here and see what we've created. And then also, we can put this in wall mode, which means that basically we can speak to Hermes Jarvis in the background. We can also, this is pretty interesting, when we're using Hermes Jarvis, we can actually switch between agent and auto mode. So, if you're using auto mode, it will reply to you quickly in real time. And it can still open stuff up and still do browser use or computer use. If you switch to agent mode, then it becomes even more agentic and even more powerful. And again, you can have this just on a monitor in the background or in a tab in the background and voice control it whenever you want. And you get the full power of Hermes, but you get it with a voice-activated version. So, if you need help setting that up, inside the Agent OS zip file, we have a full installation guide on how to use it and set it up. And you can just give that to Claude or to Hermes or to Codex or whatever AI agent you prefer to use and it can set up and install it for you. Hobing Lowe was saying that he wanted to give a shout out to Paperclip. So, he said, this has revolutionized how I work with AI agents. At the moment, just using Claude through the Agent OS. But this Paperclip is really helping him think through who he needs and what they need to do. Super helpful. Thank you, Julian. And you can see the system that he set up here. So, he set up a full social media team using the Agent OS system that we've got with Paperclip. So, this is really cool. If you want like a zero human company and you just want AI agents running, building and organizing for you 24-7, it's a fantastic way to set up. You can easily do it inside the Agent OS. I also think this is an interesting way that you can use agents, which is you can have the Agent OS, but you get Claude to operate it for you. So, you don't prompt the agents. Claude prompts the agents. And I think that's a great way to use the Agent OS is you get Claude to prompt it for you and organize it for you. And also, just thanks so much for sharing. Like, it's great to see you getting results on that. So, congrats. By the way, you might be thinking, okay, this Agent OS, it looks awesome, but it might be technical. I've seen so many people getting great results for it. Like, so many people raving about this, setting up in just 30 minutes, saying the system is amazing. People just getting awesome results. We've got over 191 pages of testimonials of wins from people getting great results with stuff like this. So, I know, like, if I can set it up, if they can set it up, we can all set it up. And it's just a fantastic system to get results with AI. It's the most powerful and interesting system I've ever seen for using AI, too. So, I don't know anyone else who's got a system like this. And that's why I built it, really. Because it just sort of captivates everything that I wanted AI to do, but just wasn't out there. Yeah, this is pretty wild as well. So, Gene shared this news about Alibaba and Anthropic. Who knows what's going on there, but I know that that was reported a couple of times this year as well. So, it's one of those, isn't it? Like, China and the US are really competing to have the best AI models. And obviously, if you look at Quen, you look at Alibaba, like, they're releasing new models all the time. They're improving and accelerating at a rapid rate. And then you look at the US and their gating models and they're avoiding sharing the New Frontier stuff with people publicly. So, it's one of those situations where who knows what's going on behind the scenes, but I can imagine it's really crazy. So, Ritz was asking, should he uninstall Hermes Desktop instead of using the Agent OS? So, for me personally, I actually don't use Hermes Desktop anymore because I tend to find like they would overlap and it'd be pretty hard to sync them both up. So, for me personally, I just focus on the Agent OS. I don't use Hermes Desktop as I find it's kind of like a limited simplified version that doesn't work with all my AI agents. So, if you want like a simplified version, I would go with that instead. Just focus on the Agent OS. And then, if you're worried about breaking anything, you can always back up Hermes. So, you can run Hermes Backup before you change anything. Or you could have a separate instance where you experiment with it first before you have it fully set up on your live working main instance. This is a good question from Neil. So, Neil was asking, how do you use GLM 5.2 inside Claude Desktop? Is there a way to do it? So, as far as I know, I don't think you can use GLM 5.2 inside Claude Desktop. Ollama originally had an integration with these two and then they took it down. There might be a way to change your environment file, but I wouldn't like to mess around with it because it'd be pretty hard to restore. What you can do though is you can use GLM 5.2 inside Claude Code. That's pretty simple and easy to set up and less volatile. You could do that with Ollama like this. And then inside GLM 5.2, you would make sure you have Ollama downloaded. And then from there, you can run this command inside your terminal to set up GLM 5.2 Cloud with Claude Code instead. We had another post about GPT 5.6 and Fable 5. This is one that I know people feel strongly about. So, with this whole situation, the way that I would look at it is build the system. Don't worry about the models. So, if you look at the agent operating system, it's super flexible to whatever comes out. And you can achieve Fable 5 level intelligence if you're using Sakana for you or Fusion anyway. We've tested it and Fusion especially is top of our leaderboards when it comes to GoldieBench. So, I wouldn't worry too much about the models, as frustrating as it might be. Just focus on the systems and then the models become irrelevant because you've got great systems to automate whatever you want. So, for example, we've automated SEO. We've automated videos using this whole system. And so, when you do that, you don't tend to worry so much about the models because you know that you've automated the most important parts of your business. And that's what really counts. So, we've got a question here from Justin, which is, Inside the agent OS, is the SEO section in Mission Control supposed to write a blog for you? Or do you paste your already written blog in and then it ranks it? So, the way this system works is that you plug in your keyword here and then you would plug in a case study that you work on. Make sure, of course, that you've wired in your websites with your Netlify or WordPress access tokens. And then from here, you can click on Generate 5 Articles and deploy that to your website directly. So, that's the way that it works is inside the Generate tab, you plug in your keyword and your case study. The case study has to be something unique because you want to create information gain and make sure your content is not just like chat, chippity, fluff. And then from there, you deploy that content to your website so that you can rank it with a fully completed blog post. Just having a look at some of the questions in the comments as well. So, one question we got was like, can AI do like game development? And I would say yes, I mean like this is a really simplified version but we have a video game studio inside the Agent OS as you can see right here. But let me show you some more interesting stuff that we've worked on recently. So, for example, we actually gave a video game skill to Sakana, I think it was recently, to build out better games. And it can build some pretty cool stuff. Like, you can see an example here. But if you want to see something even more interesting, let me show you Goldie Bench and some of the stuff we've created around games. This is just for fun, obviously. You know, for me, I'm very focused on automating with AI for business. But if you want to see some examples of what we've done when it comes to video games and that sort of thing, let me open up a couple of examples right here. So, here's one. This is called Dragon Realm. Super nice, kind of like open world RPG style. Looks pretty cool. Very visual. And, you know, we built out this whole world using this system. And let's open up some more here. So, here's another one. This is kind of like a Skyrim style game as you can see. 3D open world. Looks pretty cool. And again, like this game is absolutely massive. Like, I haven't found the limits of it yet. But it's wild how big it is. And so, that was using Sukkana Fugu, as I mentioned before. And the thing to bear in mind with these systems... Sorry, this is with Fusion. The thing to bear in mind with these systems is like we benchmark it. So, we'll test each of these prompts directly against everything else. And there's a compare section here so you can see the outputs. But from what I've seen so far, Fusion seems to be the best creating a massive open world game like you can see. So, yeah, you can do a lot of that with AI agents. Another question we got here was... What's the difference between the existing Hermes Kanban board and yours? Do they still function the same? So, it's the same functionality, but it's a better UI. Right? Like, if you have a look at the Kanban board that works normally with Hermes, it doesn't look as nice as this. And also, it's not inside one place. Right? Like, if you want to access the Kanban, you need to run terminal commands. And then you also need to go inside your dashboard and mess around with it. And it's a lot of work. I know because I personally tested it and that's why we built this. So, if you look at the Kanban board here, you can have separate Kanban boards depending on what you're building. So, you know, we were talking about game design here. This is for a Dragon game that we built out. And then also, we can have quality control on these systems as well. So, we can have multiple different agent profiles. Quality control in the content whilst we build it out. And then also, you can just drop in a new task here. It gets triaged. So, it has the same functionality, but it just looks way nicer. It's way easier to organize. And also, everything that you create inside this system goes inside your Hermes workspace. So, when you create something, usually with these sort of agents, you lose track and it's easy to lose everything that you've built. Whereas, for example, with these systems that we have here, we can easily come back to them anytime we want to. It's pretty simple and easy. And that way, we can save our progress, you know, and we can keep building on the stuff that we've built before. So, I think that's the best way to use it. Whereas, for example, if you were just using the Terminal or Hermes desktop, you could easily lose all the stuff you've created. And then, for Unreal Engine, you can get, you know, if you were interested in game design, you can use MCP with Unreal Engine and Hermes Agent or with any agent that you use like Claude. And then, that way, it can control it for you. I'm not an expert at Unreal Engine, but I know that you can get an MCP for it. And then, you can build games that way. So, that is it for the Q&A. If you want to be able to ask me questions like this and I answer them with a video tutorial, I do that every single day inside the AI Profit Boardroom. So, I personally answer all of the questions inside the community to help you as much as I can. Inside the classroom, you can get the AgentOS system that we've covered today over here with video tutorial, the last update day, and a zip file of how to use it. And then, we add new daily tutorials like you can see right here. You can also jump on weekly coaching calls and you can direct message me as well if you need extra help. And on the coaching calls, the great thing is you can share your screen, you can ask questions, you can meet all the other community members and find out what they're building onto. And then, you can also meet people in your local area. So, the whole point of this is like, we create a community where the world is changing, humanity is changing because of technology. And we're creating a community where we can all raise each other up, we can learn and grow together, we can share our journey. And also, it's focused on helping you save time, grow and scale with AI automation. So, if you want to be part of that, feel free to join the AI Profit Boardroom. Link in the comments and description or just go to the AI Profit Boardroom.com. Also, another question we just got here is, so, Miko said he spent eight hours struggling with setting up his own agent operating system. So, do we teach people how to do this without all the stress? Yes. So, the way that we've done this is we have this agent OS system and you can just get the zip file and we update it daily. So, you can get the zip file and then you can just quickly install that with your AI agents. So, we try and make it as seamless and as easy as possible to set up your system. And then, as I've shown you before, I answer all the questions that you have daily on a video tutorial so I can help you as much as I can. And then, if you look, for example, like Rick, he joined the school and he already built his agent OS within 30 minutes. You can see, for example, Hockey as well. Hockey just joined and he was like, I've installed the agent OS. Your system is amazing, right? And there's so many reviews of people getting amazing results using our agent operating system. The reason I built it and shared it is because I knew that the world needs something like this, but they don't know how to get it, right? And so, that's why we built these systems, just to help you as much as we can. You see all the testimonials around the agent OS and people sharing their dashboards and what they've created. So, yeah, you can get that inside this section right here. So, I'll see you inside there. Cheers. Cheers.
