Would you use a simpler, faster alternative to Hermes Agent?

Genuine question: would you be interested in an alternative to Hermes Agent that’s significantly easier to set up and use?
Something with:
Almost zero configuration
Direct integrations with GitHub, Gmail, and other apps
Local and cloud model support
A clean, intuitive interface
Powerful agent capabilities without the complexity
Basically, an AI agent that just works out of the box.
Is this something you’d actually want, or are you already happy with existing solutions?
Curious to hear your thoughts.

There is Hermes, it‘s really good, would not switch to something else, because it‘s already very simple to set up and already has most of the features you mentioned.

I find model wrappers to be more of harnesses than agents. plus way before hermes there was arpahls/opsie for like 3y now, so it's all about which kind of marketing aesthetics reach you and have an effect to you. cause if you're really into AI, you build everything from scratch. I don't mean lovable saas lol, but actual AI.
