Why Bot Cabinet exists
“I wanted to help people understand what a Bot can do and give them a practical place to begin.”

Damon Gardenhire built Bot Cabinet through LINCHPIN and AI for the Real World: a practical project for nontechnical people who want useful examples, clear setup guidance, and a better understanding of what Hermes Bots can do.
