- What they did
- The commenter splits work across tools. Claude (Opus) does the strategizing and drops GitHub issues, which Opencode, mostly running on Deepseek, picks up on a schedule. Hermes Agent runs many scheduled tasks covering go-to-market, research and dev loops, and the dev loop builds future projects on its own. For hands-on work they use Orca Dev.
- How it went
- Hermes has become a core tool, and the issue-to-Opencode handoff is described as simple and resilient. The same work in Openclaw spiraled and crashed after about a week, so they dropped it.
- Worth knowing
- Stated spend is Opencode Go $40, Claude $20, and $0-100 on the Deepseek API, depending on usage.
Try it yourself with Hermes Agent
Set up scheduled jobs for me: every [weekday morning] at [time], research [topic, competitors, or target accounts] and save a short summary with source links to [folder or document]. Also, every [interval], check [GitHub repo] for open issues labeled [label] and work on the oldest one on a new branch, opening a pull request without merging it. Start by showing me the schedule and the steps for each job, and wait for my approval before turning anything on.
