quick tip, since I just discovered it myself while chasing better QoL in Discord :)
I run Hermes Agent from Discord all day. every @ mention opens a thread, I drop the task in, it works there.
my need: when you ping your agent, it opens a thread and starts working on your prompt right away. I wanted to change the model after the thread opens but before the work starts, so the switch only affects that thread.
a different model per task: my main model for thinking with me, a cheaper one for triage and harvesting, without touching the default.
so I created aliases:
hermes config set https://t.co/dgNGGBOc3J nous/x-ai/grok-4.6
then I simply type @ AgentName /model data in the channel, the thread opens on grok, I type the job. every other thread stays on the default model.
just talk to your agent about your issues and needs, it will figure it out for you!
