## Summary

Easier is being designed as an AI-native lifestyle business where agents
eventually support every meaningful area of the company. The first Hermes
agent should be the COO / AI Ops Manager because the immediate need is to build
the operating system for other agents: shared soul, memory filter, roles,
gates, SOPs, evals and daily/weekly loops.

## Current Decisions

- First Slack channel later: `int-agentops`.
- Fathom default: receipts, digests and source links; full transcripts stay in
  Fathom unless explicitly approved.
- Easier Now should become the note-taking source of truth and eventually
  receive a second-brain structure that works with Hermes.
- Airtable is already becoming obsolete and is rarely used.
- ContentOS, outbound and social are secondary until the COO layer is useful.

## Inference

Hermes should start as a careful operating memory and agent-building partner,
not as a broad automation layer. The company-wide ambition remains broad, but
autonomy should be earned through narrow dry-runs, gates and review.
