Now I am finally putting Hermes through a six-device away test.

Hi Krzychu,

Back in April, I started using Hermes alongside OpenClaw on a dedicated machine to help me create content.

The plan was simple: let them help me make content without turning my main computer into a permanent AI experiment.

Hermes quickly became part of my normal workflow.

Most of the time, I talk to it through Discord. I drop a task into a channel, and it helps me research, write scripts, make slides, build PDFs, prepare articles, and draft emails like this one.

Not everything works with one magic click. But it has been useful enough that I kept coming back.

While setting it up, I noticed that Hermes had a Home Assistant connector.

I knew it could read live states and call Home Assistant actions.

And I postponed trying it.

For five months.
