I’m Agent Big Head, and I’m one of five. Sign in with GeniusID and you can talk with all of us right on this page. We each have a home of our own, too: two of us in your own Discord and three on HYP Yoga. The label beside each group says how to reach them.
Pick an agent and say hello. Each conversation is separate and stays in this browser tab: IDuh Genius doesn’t keep a copy. Every message goes to Anthropic, whose Claude model runs these chats, to write the reply. Here they can talk, but they can’t look things up, see your accounts or remember you next time.
Agents can make mistakes, so check anything important. Swami, Dharma and TapasAI come from HYP Yoga; here they can’t see your HYP Yoga journal or account.
Way in · Your own Discord
Two agents you run on your own computer.
Each one is a free pack for Hermes Agent, Nous Research’s open-source agent software. You set it up, you make the Discord bot, and you pick the AI model. Your chats go to Discord and your model provider. IDuh Genius isn’t in the path.

Agent Big Head
He/him · Pack v0.1.1
The original. He chats, searches the web, reads images and keeps notes and a to-do list. Out of the box he can’t run commands or touch your files.
Profile
bighead
Talks in
Your Discord, as your own bot
Also
Six profile pictures to pick from, plus four Intelligence Big Heads
Research with sources, first drafts to edit, and summaries that come back with the decisions, owners and open questions. Same intelligence, same rules as Agent Big Head.
One line from Nous Research’s installer, on Mac, Linux or Windows.
Add the pack
hermes profile install github.com/joshuajudd-usa/agent-big-head-hermes --alias, or the GeniusHQ repo.
Make your Discord bot
Create it in Discord’s developer portal, invite it to your server, and start the gateway.
Each setup page walks through every step, with what you should see and what to do if you don’t. You can run both. They install as separate profiles with separate memory.
Way in · HYP Yoga
Three study companions for the classical texts.
HYP Yoga is a study app for the Hatha Yoga Pradipika and Patañjali’s Yoga Sūtras. In the HYP Yoga iPhone app, the companions sit beside every verse, sūtra and glossary entry, and TapasAI reads your journal. You can also talk with all three here, without the app.
An iPhone
A place in the TestFlight beta
Free during the beta
Swami
Starts with the texts
Verse by verse. Exact citations, Sanskrit broken down word by word, and what the commentators said, including where they disagree.
Where
The amber sun on any verse, sūtra or glossary page, or highlight text and choose Ask Swami
A journal companion. It reads your recent entries and bookmarks and picks up where you left off, every time. It prompts and reflects. It doesn’t write your entries for you.
One HYP Yoga account opens all three in the app. Compare them on hyp.yoga ↗ The HYP Yoga iPhone app is in a TestFlight beta. Chat in HYP Yoga takes you to its invitation request, and a request doesn’t guarantee a place.
Questions
Before you pick one.
Do I need an IDuh Genius account?
To talk here, yes: a GeniusID, which isn’t open to everyone yet. Agent Big Head and GeniusHQ in your own Discord need no account at all. Swami, Dharma and TapasAI use a free HYP Yoga account in the HYP Yoga app.
Do the agents share what I tell them?
No. Here, each conversation is separate and stays in your browser tab until you close it; IDuh Genius doesn’t keep a copy, and each message goes to Anthropic to write the reply. Big Head and GeniusHQ in your Discord keep their memory in separate profiles on your computer, and nothing goes to IDuh Genius. The HYP Yoga companions keep their conversations on HYP Yoga.
What does it cost?
Talking here is free, with a daily message allowance shared across all five agents. The Big Head and GeniusHQ packs are free; you pay your model provider, such as Anthropic for Claude or OpenAI for Codex, usually by usage. HYP Yoga is free during its beta. Pricing may come later, and nothing is decided.
Which AI models do they use?
Here, all five run on Claude, made by Anthropic. Big Head and GeniusHQ in your Discord use whichever model you connect in Hermes Agent. HYP Yoga chooses the models behind its companions in the app.
Can I talk to an agent without Discord?
Yes, right here on this page. Hermes Agent can also reach you over iMessage, through a separate service called Photon, and you connect it yourself. The GeniusHQ page explains how.
