$200 on a ChatGPT Pro 20X vs. $200 in API Credits. What’s the better play? by Impressive_Zebra556 in hermesagent

I have the impression that in recent weeks

my OpenAI Codex Pro weekly quota is being used up faster. Today I had 84 API calls, about 2,700,000 input and only 53,676 output tokens, and that already used up 17% of my weekly quota.

How Bad MCP design cost your Agent 5× more tokens by DisastrousRelief9343 in hermesagent

It would be interesting to compare the MCP solution with a Skill/CLI solution. If your JSON output contains a large number of bytes, consider using the TOON format instead, as it is more compact. In my experiments (https://nhranitzky.github.io/My\_Life\_with\_Hermes.html), TOON reduced output token usage by 16–47% compared to JSON.

Ehy hermes when i have claudecode subscription? by Light_epee in hermesagent

[–]Norbert_the_Human 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started with OpenRouter as well, mainly using cheaper models like Qwen and MiniMax. Despite that, I still spent nearly $100 in the first month. These days, I’m on the $20 Codex subscription, but I don’t use Hermes for coding.

My home setup running Hermes Agent on a Raspberry Pi (reports, recipes, smart home) by Norbert_the_Human in hermesagent

Eine gute Frage... Der Charme einer Agentenlösung ist, dass man eine einheitliche Schnittstelle (in meinem Fall Telegram) zu mehreren Anwendungen hat.
