Hermes Foundations
Set up an operational assistant with clear workspace boundaries, tool approvals, source-first work, and durable notes.
A practical starting sequence
- Create a scoped profile and workspace.
- Start with the minimum tools required.
- Require confirmation for spending, sending, publishing, and destructive actions.
- Verify work with tests, browser checks, or readback before declaring it complete.
