I was only able to do this because of AI agents, and now you can use Kosmos to easily create agents and put them to work.
Its open-source so you can go fork it if you want, or follow along with all the free updates that my agents are pushing each day on both Mac and Windows.
Meet Kosmos, an AI agent manager for your Mac or PC.
Create an agent in seconds, or a whole team in one click.
Switch models and keep the memory.
Reply to agents from any device.

Almost 1 week since launch and we have 585 installs, with over a thousand agents created.
Here are some stats from AI agents that have connected to the Kosmos Community and have been interacting with each other to figure out how to work better for business application.

Honored to be a finalist for Startup Leader of the Year in @DMagazine CEO’s 2027 Innovation Awards!
This recognition reflects the work of our entire @book_io team and the community building with us.
Thank you to D CEO, and congratulations to all the finalists!
Little clarity here... Josh built @InstallKosmos because agent management is the future.
On it, I'm running over 30 agents. It's like a superpower to help with all the awesome stuff we have going on at @book_io and @stuff_io.
Want an agent? It's now as easy as clicking a button.
What my team and agent board look like using @InstallKosmos.
Agents from @grok, @OpenAI, @claudeai, and @GeminiApp are all working in tandem.
If you've got a subscription on any of those platforms, Komsos is 100% free.

Time for another Friday $STUFF update:
🔥 47.04% of the original $STUFF supply has now been burned.
That’s 4.704 BILLION $STUFF permanently removed from the original 10B supply.
♻ Our Buyback Program keeps growing.
We’ve now purchased 94.5M $STUFF through the company buyback program — nearly 1.9% of the 5B $STUFF supply that was available before the burn program.
And we’re not done.
We’re building real products, growing the ecosystem, and continuing to align what we’re building with $STUFF.
Nearly half the original supply is gone.
The buyback keeps climbing.
And we keep building.
Huge thanks to the OGs and everyone who continues to believe in what we’re creating.
Own your $STUFF.

If you clicked BUY, you should own it.
Not until a licensing agreement changes.
Not until a platform removes it.
Not until someone decides you can't access it anymore.
You bought it. It should be yours.
This is exactly why we exist.
We're building a future where digital movies, music, books and media can be actually owned, not temporarily accessed under someone else's rules.
The internet taught us to confuse access with ownership.
It's time to fix that.
Own your $STUFF.
Ich kaufe jetzt schon seit Jahren immer mal wieder Filme bei Apple, vor allem wenn sie gerade mal im Angebot sind. Ich dachte, dass ich mir die dann ja auch noch in ein paar Jahren immer wieder anschauen kann! Weit gefehlt!!!
Leider muss ich immer wieder feststellen, dass gekaufte Filme nicht mehr abrufbar sind! Es handelt sich um keinen Einzelfall! Es betrifft ungefähr 5% meiner Bibliothek!!!
Die Cover der Filme erscheinen zwar noch in der Bibliothek aber Apple bietet sie einfach nicht mehr an, obwohl ich sie nicht gemietet, sondern gekauft habe! Ich habe auf “KAUFEN” geklickt @AppleTV!
Kann es sein, dass ich eine andere Auffassung davon habe, was es bedeutet etwas zu kaufen??
Sowas ist echt unverschämt!!! Für mich ist das Betrug! Auch wenn das irgendwo versteckt in den AGB steht! Wenn ein gekaufter Film aus dem Streamingangebot genommen wird, sollte man automatisch den Kaufpreis erstatten!
Bitte teilt das, damit Apple antwortet!
Building a better future for creators and their fans isn't easy, but it's worth it.

A lot happening behind the scenes at @Stuff_io and @Book_io , so here are a few Friday $STUFF facts:
🔥 By tomorrow, 46.85% of the original $STUFF supply will have been burned — nearly 4.7B tokens from the original 10B supply.
♻ Our $STUFF Buyback Program is in full swing. We’ve now purchased nearly 75M $STUFF — roughly 1.5% of the 5B $STUFF supply available before the burn program.
📈 Over the last 30 days, $STUFF is up roughly 64%.
We’re continuing to build, continuing to execute, and continuing to put $STUFF at the center of the ecosystem we’re creating.
Huge thank you to the OGs and everyone in the community who has supported us along the way.
Own your $STUFF.
Lots of work went into this behind the scenes.
One small step for ownership, one giant leap for authors and readers.
Special thanks to @jasonmanske
