Namaste.

Hi HN, I built Nexus because I was tired of having multiple agents that I had to address one by one.

Nexus is basically a daemon that runs and routes messages to where they need to be, it is fully customizable, which you can write scripts off of so that it will wake agents or route that message to an already existing agent. Right now itβ¦
