I struggled for several days trying to use Openclaw, which was hot recently, and gave up. Connecting it with a local llm was too difficult for me as a non-expert. I was also scared of tokens running out...
So while getting by, I heard that hermes agent was good and only made up my mind to install it.
First of all, I was too burned by openclaw
Because hermes's ui looked worse than Openclaw's UI.
But then I heard from the AI community that Qwen came out well, and upon hearing the news that it runs well on specs very similar to my system, I took a big step and gave it a try.
Since Openclaw was barely used—I just installed and tested it—it's difficult to compare,
but hermes seemed quite intelligent because it matched well with the llm.
It hasn't even been a week yet, but I was impressed by how it automatically turns repetitive tasks into skills and handles them.
Qwen 3.6 is also quite intelligent, so even if I speak clumsily, it understands perfectly.
Since I still don't know what to automate, I've had it handle personal tasks.
I asked it to create a vault using Obsidian's built-in skills and organize folders in GTD style, and it did a good job.
After telling it about the projects I'm currently working on, I asked it to recommend one by one, and it's cute(?) how it recommends what I should do next using its own logic..
I recommend experiencing an AI agent at least once.
