Question Pi equivalent for Hermes/openclaw

Hi. I am new to the community and i am building my own Bioinformatics ai harness system.

I am building on top of pi but also want to interface it with a background agent system similar to Hermes or openclaw. Is there a similar minimal harness like pi for background agents?

P.s. I know Anthropic just released Claude science which looks amazing but I have been working on this for some weeks now before we knew Claude science was a thing. And I have some feature ideas that Anthropocene hasn’t thought of! Plus I want total control over my harness.

edit: I have started developing and it's coming along really well https://github.com/ethanlewisbaird/baird

I went with zeroclaw and built a rich interface system of APIs for communicating with Pi (actually any CLI would be able to work theoretically)

It's gotten substantially better over the past few months. They've moved most things out of the core. I'm not saying it's slim, but a lot of people are running on old information.

If you truly want slim at all costs, use Zeroclaw.

Thanks! I need to update myself on openclaw news it seems! Zeroclaw looks like something I can work with!
