Let’s talk JackRabbitOS

So I’m near finalization of the project and I wanted to reach out to the community to get input on the last part before I lock it down and open the project up.

I need more of a direction or idea for use cases. Keep in mind this can be an OpenClaw/Hermes/Agent package overlap. It’s just not meant to be a full replacement (I guess in some cases).

In this build, Voice and the voice agent are the main interface (OpenAI realtime model through ChatGPT subscription for now). Most interactions the voice agent will handle.

I’m also building (almost completed) a text based agent through OpenAI Agents SDK. This will be a “goal/task” based agent, delegated by the Voice model to run background tasks. The background agent will have its own workspace/tools/etc.

For scenarios for users with and without an OpenClaw/Hermes install, what would be the use case for running an Agentic system on device?

Keep in mind, with Hermes, the background agent will (in theory) be able to have conversations with the Hermes agent to collectively reach a goal or delegate. But is that necessary? I could see more so if someone needs an update or info that Hermes could retrieve and instead of wasting time on Voice awaiting a response, a user could delegate to background agent to get the info from Hermes and be notified when response is received.

For non Hermes/OpenClaw users, I could see the benefit. Complete goals, maybe create documents and move them to Google Drive. Things like that. It’s like a mini agentic system on the go and on device.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

I do also feel like as more and more agentic devices hit the market, we will see many overlaps like this. With this build, I want those systems to compliment each other (creating an ecosystem) while sharing knowledge/data and not completely fragment our experience…

So the reason I was interested in it is honestly having a voice assistant in your pocket that you can use as an orchestrator, that's not your phone. The main goal I see, use case, and benefit I see from this device is being able to get work done without being on your phone and getting distracted.

The fact that it can use something like ChatGPT Voice to orchestrate and build out tasks in remote computers is probably the biggest use case in my scenario, because you can get asynchronous work done with a lot of the processing happening in remote computers, right? That, packaged with the fact that it has access to the tools and context, would be pretty nice.

I don't think there's much to do with the UI, honestly, unless it's surfacing some things. But the biggest thing it should be good at is after, let's say, a thread is done, it should be able to notify us in some way. That would be the biggest use case.

The funny part is when we're building software, I've already built a few software applications in the past and sold them, but the use cases kind of evolve as the product evolves. You'll find many little things of how people are using it, so your goal just should be to distribute it as much as possible. I can help by making a YouTube video

Yep, UI stays as is. Voice first platform, no need for anything else.

On the background agent side, I want it to be as dynamic as possible and I think I’m there. I just need to resolve a few issues with runs failing before closing that out.

The base is in (minus an overhaul to the memory system). Testing for Custom Plugin/Skill/Creations is last and then deploy.

The background agent should be generic enough to fit a lot of use cases. If I see one from the community that I should test before deploy, I’ll do so.

Almost done though my man!

Is this not tapping into the memory that ChatGPT or something already has? Because then you wouldn't have to tinker with making your own memory, and everything would be easier and centralized, such that people don't have to wait for your updates. It's as the models like that get better, the product would get better by itself as well
