For the past few months, I've been working on indx - a modern local media manager for artists, developers, designers, and multidisciplinary creatives. During the Hermes Agent creative hackathon, we developed, refined, and honed indx's agent integrations in a series of creative experiments. Hermes can work through indx’s CLI/API/skills/MCP surfaces to organize media, annotate files, run experiments, store embeddings, and turn a library into a lab. The database is an index, not a jail: metadata gets written to files and stays portable, and agents get a workspace they can actually operate. The demo shows Hermes using indx as an operating surface for several creative/research loops. In the ComfyUI workflow, generated outputs come back into indx with workflow metadata. Ratings, tags, and notes added in indx can be read by the agent (including webhooks for live updates from the GUI), so human review becomes signal for the next batch. In the embedding and breakbeat experiments, breakbeats and found sounds were sliced and compared using audio embeddings, and a range of audio analysis methods (embedded as images). indx-backed media and metadata feed latent-space visualizations, audio analysis, found-sound slice search, and VCV Rack performances — keeping the groove while replacing timbres. The current test library has nearly 300k indexed files; the hackathon runs included a found-sound corpus of 586 clips chopped into 10,192 searchable slices. These are early research and creative workflows. The point is the reusable loop: a local, inspectable media workspace where Hermes can help explore, compare, organize, generate, and transform creative libraries, and respond to human feedback and curation, without trapping the work in a proprietary platform. indx is moving toward an open-source beta soon, with the hackathon work serving as a preview of agent-operable creative media workflows. Released today: ComfyUI video matrix generation tools (scripts and Hermes skills) on GitHub VCV Rack REX Player module indx Hermes integration preview (SOUND ON)

i already have shared github repos for specific projects, including some context docs for agents on those specific projects but i’m curious about a shared github repo for the agent setup / memory / context - i think that’s what you’re talking about here? curious how that works / how you have it organized

@sudoingX could you elaborate on #4 and #5? what all are you putting in the shared github repo? what kinds of things are you making scripts for?

be honest, you bookmarked this and still have zero of the five running. no judgment, i did the same for a year. today is a good day to fix that, anon.
Sudo su@sudoingX

anyone thinking about, learning, or already working with agentic systems, you should know this. the first few steps of your setup matter more than any model or framework you pick later. get them right and you never lose your flow. the foundation nobody posts about: > 1. tailscale. a private mesh network across every machine you own. laptop, desktop, rented node, all on one secure tailnet, reachable from anywhere. nothing else works well until this does. > 2. termius, over that tailnet. one SSH client that reaches every node, phone included. you are never away from your stack. > 3. tmux. persistent sessions. disconnect, close the laptop, come back, every session exactly where you left it. agentic work runs long, your terminal has to survive that. > 4. a private git repo. the one i am most glad i found. it is the memory layer across all my agents, they pull, they work, they merge back, the codebase stays alive between sessions. context that would die in a chat window lives in the repo instead. > 5. script everything from day one. ssh aliases for every node, setup scripts, the boring boilerplate automated. if you will do a thing more than twice, it is a script. everything past these five is decorative. know these cold. and the habit that ties it together: ask the AI itself. for the config, for the error, for any of it, let the agent do the lifting, then double check what it hands you. lock the five, build the habit, and you make it. skip it, anon, and you ngmi.

@davepl1968 tempest has a color vector display! i don’t think i’ve ever seen one in person but that sounds so cool

If you're curious what a "Special Interest" is like with ASD, here's an example of mine: Tempest. I own three Tempest machines, an upright, a cabaret, and a cocktail (sit-down) machine. The high score on one of them was set by the game's author at the Atari Christmas Party. I have two spare monitors just in case. I hold the official world record on Tempest using the most difficult settings (Extreme mode). I reverse-engineered, disassembled, and documented the code from the game's ROMs on its motherboard. Next, I then wrote a Reinforcement Learning AI to learn Tempest and exceed my play; it can play indefinitely. I could go on, but I'll spare you the rest and summarize: I really like Tempest.

@transgendererer depending on how you define it computers existed first. also interesting that they happened around the same time

@ItsSnibby @NousResearch @ComfyUI thanks! I agree. I'm also working on another tool that helps with comparing, filtering, and managing AI outputs, and coordinate with agents

@gorkulus @NousResearch @ComfyUI tools that help compare generations side by side are underrated asf, half the workflow pain in ai video rn is just keeping track of what actually improved. followed u btw

ComfyUI video grid tool, now available as a skill for Hermes Agent (on my Github) I worked with Hermes to create this skill to compare video tests. Works together with Hermes' built-in ComfyUI integration ✨ more info ↓ @NousResearch @ComfyUI

Most design tokens hold a value. The interesting ones hold a rule. Instead of freezing a ramp and designing around it, let tokens choose, transform, and re-decide when inputs change. That makes dark mode and new themes less of a retrofit, and leaves more room for surprise.

Finally made a small lib that helps me implement how I think about design tokens. Try Design Book →

My ComfyUI Template Integrity skill has now been merged into the official Hermes Agent repo. It makes Hermes a lot more comfortable working with templates and workflows, so you don't have to. 💖 github.com/NousResearch/h…

oh wow. i want to film an oscilloscope graphing sound with one of these this also seems maybe useful for using the camera for realtime control of something with motion. a camera, but it’s just sending out individual pixel events? you could have much lower latency responding to visual changes? the other thing it makes me want to do is make synthesizers and effects based on an audiovisual feedback loop. pixel events that get close to audio rates is really interesting

event sensors are wild. they output asynchronous pixel change events rather than a global or rolling shutter dumping entire frames. this allows for a pseudo high frame rate (10k fps). going to see if i can track bullets in flight. will update soon.
