Capabilities
What can Hermes Agent do with PostlyBee?
Hermes learns from how you work. With PostlyBee connected, it can take over the routine parts of your posting.
Schedule and draft posts
Schedule to one channel or several, each with its own copy, or save drafts to review later.
Follow each platform’s rules
Hermes loads each channel’s post rules and settings from PostlyBee before it writes.
Learn your style
Hermes can remember how you edit its drafts, so later posts need fewer changes.
Fill your schedule
Find the next open slots and place a batch of posts in them.
Upload from disk
With the PostlyBee skill, Hermes attaches images and videos from your machine.
Report on results
Pull account and post analytics and summarize what to post more of.
Tool allowlist
Give Hermes only the PostlyBee tools it needs
Hermes registers each PostlyBee tool as mcp__postlybee__<tool>. Add an include list to register only the tools a workflow needs, for example reading channels and saving posts without analytics or media generation.
PostlyBee also instructs agents to confirm before scheduling, and deleting posts is not available through MCP.

What is Hermes Agent?
Hermes Agent is an open-source agent from Nous Research with a built-in learning loop: it creates skills from experience, improves them as it uses them, and remembers context across sessions.
It supports open-standard skills and connects to MCP servers, so PostlyBee works with it either way.
