Hermes Agent for content creation means using Nous Research’s open-source agent as a research assistant, first-draft writer, designer and voice studio in one place. Everything below comes from the official Hermes docs and the v0.23.0 release. My video is just under this intro, and you approve everything before it goes out.
Key takeaways
- Research topics and sources with web search and web extract.
- Teach it your voice and formats once with a skill.
- Make images with FAL.ai and voiceovers with text-to-speech.
- Plan the week on a Kanban board and run jobs with cron.

Why use Hermes for content
Content takes time because of the steps around the writing: finding a topic, checking sources, making the image, recording audio and posting on time. Hermes runs on your own machine or server and keeps memory between sessions, so it can carry those steps for you.
You keep the voice and the final say. For campaign work, see the Hermes Agent for marketing guide.
1. Research ideas and sources
The web search docs describe web_search and web_extract. Ask Hermes to pull the key points from the pages that matter, with links, so every claim in your post can be checked.
Example prompt: “Find what changed in the latest release of this tool, read the official notes and give me five post ideas with the source link for each.”

2. Write in your voice with skills
Skills live in ~/.hermes/skills/. Put your tone, banned words, post formats and examples of your best work in one skill. Every draft then starts from your style instead of a generic one.
- One skill per format: newsletter, short post, video script.
- Include two or three of your real posts as examples.
- List what never to say, so you edit less.
3. Make images
The image generation docs say Hermes creates images from text prompts through FAL.ai, and the active model is chosen in hermes tools. Use it for thumbnails, post graphics and quick concept art.
4. Add voiceovers and audio
The text-to-speech docs list several providers, with Edge TTS as the free default and paid options such as ElevenLabs and OpenAI. The v0.23.0 release also added official plugins for ElevenLabs Sound Effects and ElevenLabs Music, plus Meshy for 3D generation.

5. Plan the week and keep it moving
The Kanban docs describe a board that is shared across profiles, so ideas, drafts and finished pieces each have a column. Delegation hands one piece per subagent, and cron jobs can run a weekly planning prompt and deliver it to your chat.
The hermes inbox view shows any job that failed, stalled or is waiting to be delivered.
6. Keep a human editor
Read every draft before it goes out. Check facts against the source links, keep claims you can prove and cut anything that doesn’t sound like you. The agent drafts, you publish.
My verdict
Start with one skill for your main format and one weekly job that researches five ideas with sources. Once the drafts sound like you, add images and voiceovers. That’s the simple way to use Hermes Agent for content creation.
