small enough to review
Activation after deployment Cases 3 Control Human Goal Value
After deployment, make Hermes useful in one small, reviewable step.
V1 keeps only a few beginner-safe use cases. Each one is written as an activation runbook: what to try, what to avoid, what to ask AI, and how to decide whether it worked.
final approval stays manual

Choose a first run
Pick the safest useful case for your current setup.
Start with one small case. A good first run should produce visible output, visible logs, and no irreversible external action.
Use case Needs human review
Personal agent workflow
Use Hermes to help coordinate repeatable personal tasks instead of stopping at installation success.
First run: Pick one low-risk task such as daily planning, inbox triage notes, or converting a rough idea list into a structured action list.

First run: Use 5 to 10 known URLs or RSS entries and ask Hermes to produce a reviewed candidate list, not a published article.
