I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #1381 - The 8 Layers of My AgentOS, and Two Primary Domains of Integration - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Saturday, May 9, 2026

I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 7 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

The above screenshot is from the free AgentOS Training-Course website, which is an online resource to assist people in building their own fully-functional agentic-AI systems, and in a way that is completely agnostic in terms of AI models, AI agents, or agentic-AI frameworks, which means that it is easily portable, and quick to deploy. The 8 layers of a functional AgentOS represent essential core components, with one building upon the other starting with the top layer, Identity, which is the foundation layer that defines the entire nature and focus of the AngentOS that will built on top of it. Each layer adds new functionality, effectiveness, and efficiency to the system. Most of these layers are already present and operational in my current Hermes-Agent setup, and this 8-layer AgentOS model is being used as the template as I further build and flesh out each individual layer with Hermes.

As you might surmise, my mind is still intensely focused on these agentic-AI endeavors, and the progress that I'm making with Hermes on it is truly remarkable. Within the span of 7 days, I've gone from first installing and setting up Hermes, to now working with it to construct an entire developmental framework for building this AgentOS, and the plans, tools, workflows, and skills to implement them.

I'm not just working within the Hermes framework, however, I'm also integrating other excellent and complimentary tools, frameworks, methodologies, and a good number of brilliant meta-concepts and meta-organizational structures and blueprints, into how I work with Hermes, and what I'm able to do with it when I do. My whole agentic operating system is becoming smarter, more intelligent, more capable, and notably more effective and efficient, the longer I work with it.

The two primary domains that I intend to directly connect and integrate into this AgentOS's functionality that Hermes and I are building, are blockchain ecosystems where I'm active, like Hive, Blurt, Qortal, and my underlying Arch/Artix Linux operating systems. When this is brought to fruition, Hermes will be able to act effectively within multiple blockchain domains and contexts, and to directly manage my Arch/Artix Linux installations. I'm getting there, one step at a time (OK, maybe two or three at a time...lol!).

To successfully implement the Agent layer (aside from Hermes), it would be necessary to create and have multiple specialized agents up and running at the same time, which my local hardware resources make very challenging indeed. To be able to accomplish a multi-agent collaborative orchestrator-workers setup with my current local hardware resources, I would need to set up accounts with various LLM/model providers that offer free services, and then create and setup specialized agents for each provider and model. This part might take a bit of time to to research, experiment, and test, but once it's set up and operating correctly, I'll have a whole army of specialized agents to help me in my building process. Things continue to get more and more interesting, my friends!

Yesterday, Saturday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, pretty late again, by about 3:30PM, giving my attention first to a few small jungle-tasks, and then to some photography for my posts. I also shared another extremely interesting conversation with Jyoti about our respective custom agentic-AI systems (it's been exactly one month since Jyoti suggested that I look into running AI models, and into agentic-AI systems). After wrapping up the conversation with Jyoti, I made a quick food-supply run to Tutu's to restock Wabisabi, I made myself some food there, and with that and my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee in hands, I headed back to the Flow House, to work a bit more with Hermes, and to begin my evening Hive tasks. I got through all of my notifications by around 11:30PM, and after more research in agentic-AI tech, I went to bed, way too late again, by close to 1:30AM (yep, ouch). I woke up by about 7:30AM, still feeling that I needed a bit more sleep, doing a bit more agentic-AI research, experimentation, and testing, going to make my superfood fire coffee in Wabisabi, returning to the Flow House to work more with Hermes, and to write this post. It's now just before 2PM, so it's a really good time to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my numerous other important Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on photography for my post, and then on a few small jungle-community/land work tasks. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until my Weekly-Hive-Goals-and-Progress Update (hopefully) tomorrow morning, and the next manifestation of these posts tomorrow afternoon! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

2026 Life Goals

1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.

2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.

3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.

4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

The higher in the witness ranking we go, the more that we'll be able to grow the We Are Alive Tribe, and the more that we'll be able to share with all of you!

If you appreciate what we're doing with the We Are Alive Tribe, and feel inspired and motivated to lend a hand in building and growing our decentralized community economy and financial framework, which benefits all of us, community conntributions/donations/investments may be sent to our 'We Are Alive Tribe Sovereign Wealth Investment Fund' account, @waat-swif. They're deeply appreciated, and are put to very good use.

Vote for @borniet's @botlord Witness Node!

Bjorn is our badass coder who hosts and manages our (and also Bradley's) community backends, he creates all sorts of useful tools, and he assists people all over the Blockchain constantly. He redefines the term 'busy'!

Vote for @bradleyarrow's Witness Node!

Bradley's tenaciously committed and all-in on Hive for the long haul (just like me!), and the higher his witness goes in the ranking, the higher the weekly BBH and BBHO dividend payouts will be!
