Hermes Agent for Instagram: A Weekly Expert Plan

Hermes Agent for Instagram

Experts rarely lack material for Instagram; they lack a rhythm. A physiotherapist knows twenty things patients get wrong, but turning them into a steady feed takes a weekly decision about what comes next. Hermes Agent is built to remember, which makes it a fit for that decision: it knows what was posted, what the practice may and may not claim and how often to publish. Through Tareno it can read your account and save drafts, while you keep the final say. This page describes the weekly loop, the settings that make it safe and the points where a person must look.

Example: a physiotherapy practice and its Monday plan

Consider a practice owner who teaches posture and back-pain basics. In the first session she gives Hermes her notes, a list of claims she is willing to make and a list she is not, plus the cadence: three posts a week. Hermes asks Tareno for the account list and for her recent posts, so it knows what has already been covered. Each Monday she sends a short message, and Hermes proposes three topics, one per post, with a caption and a suggested image from her media library through list_media. She approves the topics, Hermes saves them with create_drafts, and on Wednesday it reports which drafts are still waiting. Because the connection started read-only, she enabled drafting herself with the configure command and left scheduling off until she trusted the output.

Step by step

1. 01

   Teach Hermes the boundaries

   Give it your subject, your voice and, just as important, the claims you will not make. A persistent agent applies that list every week, which is the main reason to use one.

2. 02

   Start read-only

   The default Tareno connection can read accounts, posts, platform rules and analytics. Let Hermes review your recent posts first, so the plan builds on what is already published.

3. 03

   Switch on drafting deliberately

   Use the configure command to enable create_drafts and, if you want it, media listing. Keep scheduling off at first; a plan that only creates drafts is easy to audit.

4. 04

   Run the weekly planning message

   Each week, ask for the next set of topics. Hermes proposes one point per post, so you decide what is said and it decides how to phrase it within your rules.

5. 05

   Pair images from your library

   Hermes can look through list_media for approved photos and match them with captions. Confirm each pairing in Tareno, because it cannot judge whether an image shows a patient or an exercise correctly.

6. 06

   Review, request a slot and approve

   When you are happy, enable scheduling or ask for slots manually. Each request stays pending until you approve it in the dashboard, and Hermes can report its status with get_action_status once you enable that tool.

Prompts to copy

Use Tareno to list my last twenty Instagram posts and group them by topic. Tell me which topics I covered most, which I have not touched and which captions got the best response. Read only; create nothing.

My subject is [posture and back pain basics] and I post [three times a week]. Remember the claims I will not make: [list]. Propose three posts for next week, one topic each, with a caption under 2,200 characters, and save them as drafts for [account name] through Tareno.

Use Tareno to list my media library and suggest an approved image for each of the three drafts. Show each caption next to its filename, tell me when no suitable image exists and do not attach anything until I confirm.

Check the state of every scheduling request you created this week with Tareno's status tool. Tell me which are approved, which are still waiting for me and which failed, and do not retry a failed one before explaining why it failed.

Mistakes to avoid

• Leaving the claims list implicit. A persistent agent only protects you from claims it has been told about, so write the forbidden ones down once.
• Enabling every tool on day one. Start read-only, then drafting, and only then scheduling, so each step is reviewed before the next opens.
• Treating memory as evidence. Hermes remembers what you said, not what is true; facts in a caption still need a source you trust.
• Letting the weekly plan drift to the easiest topics. Ask Hermes which subjects you have not covered in a month and plan one of them.
