How the agent did it
- The poster asked Hermes to find new tools for people leaving their job to build something, with a recurring Monday schedule.
- Hermes searched with TinyFish, read 15 pages and returned Slashspace, SAASMiner and Huebert, as reported by the poster.
- It saved the workflow as a skill; the published skill researches candidates, reads their own pages and writes a dated markdown digest.
@Jtyles gave Hermes Agent a recurring research goal: find new tools for people trying to leave their job and build something. Hermes searched with TinyFish, read 15 pages and returned this week's 3 tools, as reported by the poster: Slashspace, SAASMiner and Huebert.
A same-author reply makes the workflow more inspectable than a short success claim. It includes the resulting weekly research skill. The procedure defines the previous week, searches for launches, selects candidates relevant to indie builders, reads each product's own page and writes a dated markdown digest. Each recommendation is meant to include its name, URL, launch date, purpose and relevance to the intended reader.
The shared instructions also acknowledge practical failure cases: launch aggregators can block extraction, featured dates can differ from actual launch dates, and there may be too few suitable candidates. They call for distinguishing those cases rather than inventing missing facts. These are published instructions, not proof that every run handles them correctly.
The poster says the skill now runs every Monday. Agents In Use has not observed later scheduled executions or verified the recommendations independently. The concrete contribution is the researched shortlist and the reusable procedure shared alongside it.
