Jev to replace routing in ICM system
hello, has anyone find how to slowly migrate certain parts of their ICM to use jev? things like routing, tool calls and so on. seems like it will be a mish mash in sequence of jev and llm calls to accomplish task in the ICM system which could speed up retrievals? but it will be trouble with llm caching and debugging when things go wrong. what do you think?

@Curtis Hays the point of jev is not to tradeoff speed for output quality, but to answer queries lightning fast by reading and hopping through the markdown files until we have sufficient info to complete an agentic task

after this post was made, we now have tools like jevgrep, which searches within files and return the right context
Local PC vs VPS for a scheduled Python pipeline handling PII
Context: I've built a Python pipeline that processes client documents through the Anthropic API on a schedule. It handles PII, so I have compliance obligations. Right now it runs manually on my PC; the next phase adds a scheduler and a webhook receiver. My problem: the plan assumes it runs on my local PC, and that's a bad fit — my internet isn't reliably stable and the machine can't be counted on to stay awake and connected through a busy season. The obvious alternative is a small VPS running everything, with my PC as the dev machine. Questions: (1) Local vs. VPS for this — what would you do? (2) If VPS, what's the minimum competent setup for handling PII? (3) Anything about running a scheduled, webhook-driven Python pipeline in production that bites people who haven't done it before? If it matters for #2 — I was leaning toward DigitalOcean, but open to other suggestions. Thank you in advance. #Rookie

i have a way of making my local pc run scheduled jobs, replacing need for vps and ur local pc can be sleeping until it wakes up to run the job. but first, that local pc needs to be macbook M series, it has this command called pmset which lets you wake up the mac at the time you set daily. e.g. pmset wakeup daily 2am once the mac is awake, your scripts running on cron or some scheduling tool, calls the program, and when successfully done its job, calls pmset sleepnow to continue sleeping what if the job fails due to no internet? well the failed cli will schedule another wake up in the next hour then goes to sleep, to retry the job later, continuously retrying until it succeeds or reaching max num of retries that you set. you see where this goes, make the mac wake up to do its job, if it fails, then try again by repeating wakeups periodically. This method lets me get best of both worlds, my data stays on my machine without separate vps to manage and pay for, and it runs jobs periodically like a vps.

I'm using oh-my-pi, pi agent with more builtin features and has nice tui

@David Vogel after playing around with it, yes you are right the system prompt is more bloated than native pi's but i was able to change the system prompt to pi's and it works fast now. the read tool and write tool feels better with hashline editing, and it has built in web search. i was able to pass the --tools cli flag to limit num of tools to further reduce system prompt bloat. loving the power and flexibilityso far with oh my pi
Hermes
is any one using Hermes as there harness? personally i have been happy that i did all the starter classes here with a VS Code so i at least know what i am doing when getting the beast of something like hermes and LM Studio working.

I would like to use hermes but I read that it doesnt work as a coding agent? Ideally I want to have a coding agent which is backed by second brain, so Im using pi agent at the moment
How do you know which memories your agents actually use — not just which ones you stored?
For anyone running a persistent memory layer that more than one agent reads from — as it grows, how do you know which entries actually get pulled into a run vs. which just sit there adding retrieval noise? Storing is easy and every run tempts you to write more, but a memory that never gets retrieved isn't context — it's surface area the next search has to wade through. I can measure what I wrote; what I haven't cracked is measuring what actually loaded and changed an output. So — do you track retrieval-per-entry and prune what never fires, or is it still by feel? And if you prune, what's your signal that a memory is dead weight and not just rarely-needed?

It's the same question that I have, when pulling entries, there might be irrelevant entries being read in which pollutes the context. We should have the LLM score the entries before pulling them in as context, then score them later after reading to score how they useful they really are to answer the question. This way we can always fine tune our entries to make it be more relevant for future queries. But how to implement this? Perhaps writing these scores to a log?
