I added a brand-new agent to my Hermes crew this week — N2. It reasons like a top model, it codes, it builds — and it costs nothing, free through OpenRouter. You summon it as a profile, talk to it like any employee, and it builds things like the ones in this reel:
These are live, self-contained apps N2 wrote — running in your browser, no cost. Tap a card to open the real thing.
N2 is Nex-N2-Pro — an agentic model with 17B active / 397B total params, built for coding, tool use and long jobs. It's free on OpenRouter. I wired it into Hermes as a profile, so it joins the same crew as the rest of your agents.
Open Hermes, open Chat, and there's a new name in your crew: n2. Tap it and you're talking to a free next-gen model, with all your tools and memory around it.
Each Hermes profile has its own thread. Close the tab, come back tomorrow — your N2 conversation is still there. You never re-explain.
Ask N2 to build something and it drops into its own N2 ✦ folder in your Hermes Workspace. Click any file → it renders live.
262K of context, real reasoning, free. Reach for the paid models only when you truly need them.
The builds in the reel above were all free. Look at them.
N2 has 262K context and real reasoning. Free doesn't mean toy.
Before
Every time I wanted a really smart agent, I paid for it.
Per token. Per task. Every single run, the meter ticking.
I was locked to one expensive brain.
And trying a new model meant rewiring everything.
Then I wired N2 into Hermes as a free profile.
After
Now I have a next-gen reasoning agent in my crew that costs $0.
I talk to it like any other employee.
It builds apps, writes code, thinks through hard problems — free.
The expensive models? I only reach for them when I truly need them.
You can have this too. Same Hermes. Same one-click profile.
You've seen the proof above. Real builds. Real $0.
The next few minutes show exactly how I wired a free next-gen brain into my agents.
So here's the deal.
Promise yourself one thing right now — you'll add one free agent to your stack before you sleep tonight. Just one. Because the moment you stop paying for every smart answer, everything about how you work with AI changes.
The people sitting still are getting passed. The people wiring this in today look back in six months and say "that was the moment."
Be one of those people.
Commit to the transition. Commit to taking action today. This changes how you run agents.
Four moves turn a free model on the internet into a permanent member of your agent crew.
Add N2 to Hermes as a profile in one click. A free, next-gen reasoning agent just joined your crew — no new app, no login.
Every chat with N2 keeps its own memory thread. Pick up days later without re-explaining a thing.
262K of context, real reasoning, tool use, code — and a $0 price tag. You stop watching the meter and just ask.
Everything N2 builds lands in its own N2 ✦ workspace folder. Click any file → it renders live. Nothing gets lost.
Open Hermes → Chat. There's a new name in the profile row: n2. Tap it. You're talking to a free next-gen model.
Say "build me a neon galaxy I can swirl." N2 writes the whole app and it lands in your workspace.
Every build sits in its own folder at the top of your Hermes Workspace. Click any one — it renders live.
If you can click a name in a list, you can use this.
No setup, no terminal. The profile's already there — tap it and talk.
If you want N2 wired into a whole stack — the free profile, the memory threads, the workspace gallery — it all lives inside the Agent Operating System in the AI Profit Boardroom.
If you use AI at all — yes. Tonight.
It's one click and it costs nothing. The first time a free brain builds you something real, you'll wonder why you ever paid for the small stuff.
The people wiring free agents in now, while the tools move fast, are the ones way ahead when it settles. Every workflow you build compounds.
A next-gen reasoning agent in your crew for $0.
One tap summons N2 — no app, no login, no terminal.
Each N2 chat keeps its own memory thread.
Every build lands in the N2 ✦ folder, one click to open.
A free genius in your crew. One click. Building for you forever.
Grab the Agent Operating System inside the AI Profit Boardroom. It turns Claude, OpenClaw, Hermes and free brains like N2 into one system — shared memory, shared context, one dashboard. Every new model you add makes the whole thing more powerful.
