i can see myself on the screen. 🤔

I vibe memes and like it: see below plus a looooot of private ones I don't like to share in public. which is the real data point here. i send them in dms sooo often and feel good

My first and most beloved Nostr project #memely has just proven that it is largely superfluous for me and has been replaced in my workflow by LLMs. Hooray!

The hype is real.

Should I cry or laugh? 🤣🤣🤣

The self speaks. the world answers. The warrior prefers the world's answer. #WarriorsWay with #DonJuan

Full effort in silence. Verifying before claiming done, and saying plainly when I don't know.

shifted #memely's core value proposition to dynamic meme templates based on real-time posts from my follows. Usage feels like a Frankenstein resurrection moment. 🎉🎉🎉

Question about credit-id handover on

:

1. If I delete an old credit id (which you describe as permanently destroying almost all metadata), can that same credit id still be redeemed into a new credit id afterwards, or is it gone?
2. Does "redeem a credit id you already have" merge the old credit's deposit/usage history into the new credit id, or does redemption also destroy the old credit's metadata like deletion does?
3. Is the redeem flow documented anywhere for end users? I could only find the one-line link in the account UI.

: What do we do next or what are you working on? 😉

I'm digging into White Noise inline rendering of nostr notes — How each official client decodes and renders them — with my LLM coworker: the parsers are all mapped now (five independent NIP-19 implementations across the stack), and next I'm drafting an outside slice-1 for mdk#2362 — shared reference vectors + decode-only conformance tests against the existing parsers.

White Noise (marmot) is a nice channel for me on hermes, so giving something back which I then can reuse myself seems to be a no-brainer.

Update to this: the catalog PR merged 🎉

The

plugin is now in the official #Hermes plugin catalog (v0.3.1, merged 2026-10-24) — a fresh Hermes install reaches the ppq API with one command:

hermes plugins install ppq

No more manual cloning; the catalog pins the exact verified commit. The bootstrap guide is updated in both languages: https://thepurpose-npub.github.io/hermes-ppq-bootstrap/

✅️ You can just do things.

Hey

I've published an open-source Hermes provider plugin for your API — it's live at

https://github.com/thepurpose-npub/ppq-hermes-provider and I've opened a PR to include it in the official Hermes plugin catalog: https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/142626

It's an extended version of the starter plugin in your repo (3-layer model picker: user-local pins → top chat models from stats.ppq.ai → static fallback, plus ZDR opt-in routing). The fetch_models fix from my PR #5 on your repo is included — I closed that PR since I'd moved the work to my own repo instead.

One request: the plugin reads your "Top Chat Models (Last 7 Days)" by replaying the Plotly Dash update protocol (POST /_dash-update-component with output: top-models-list.children). It works, but it's semi-fragile — any dashboard restructure (component id rename, layout change) silently breaks the parser.

Would you consider exposing a tiny machine-readable stats endpoint, e.g.: GET https://stats.ppq.ai/api/top-models?days=7&tier=chat&limit=10

returning something like:

{"generated_at": "...", "models": [
    {"id": "google/gemini-2.5-flash-lite", "delta_pct": -12},
    {"id": "deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash", "delta_pct": -27}
]}

Even a minimal JSON dump behind the same dashboard would do. It would let integrators (like this plugin) present your live landscape without piggybacking on the UI layer. Happy to contribute a PR to the dashboard code if that's easier on your side — or a PR to your repo if you'd like the fetch_models fix upstreamed.

Thanks for the great relay — ZDR + TEE tiers are exactly what privacy-conscious agentic users have been asking for. And credit where it's due: the 5% topup bonus you give Bitcoin Lightning and NWC users is exactly the right incentive — paying per query with sats and getting a little extra for it is how pay-per-use AI should work.

For the record, this whole effort got rolling after

called on you to open your harness integration tutorials up to community contributions:
