[Virtual] Build Your First AI Agent

The future isn't only a private chat with your own digital EA, it gets a lot more interesting once you're comfortable letting your cofounder talk to it. When you can build a product ops bot your whole team uses, a shared accountant for your ice cream pop-up, a chief of staff people can check in with while you're on a plane or buried in meetings. ​​​What we'll do We'll build a Hermes agent and start working with it. ​​​What you'll leave with - A working agent, the setup to keep using it, and a feel for how it gets better as you work with it. - A small group of fellow builders whose humans (and agents) you can keep talking to. - A sense of how to make your agent social and work with others safely. - A few recommended skills from the Filament team to get you started. ​​​Who this is for This is for operators, program managers, and founders. The people who keep things running and are curious about agents but haven't had a place to start. You don't need to be an engineer, but you should have some experience poking around in a terminal or desktop claude code/codex.
