            <h2>Why Our Program is <span class="highlight">Different</span></h2>
            <p>
                We believe in building a great product at a fair price. That means we
                don't have the deep pockets of big enterprise platforms, and we won't
                pretend we do. Instead of chasing huge commissions that don't exist,
                we focus on what actually works: a product your audience will love,
                and the tools to make that happen.

                    <h3>🎯 Higher Conversion</h3>
                    <p>
                        Your viewers who tried setting up an agent and hit the technical
                        wall? We catch them. derez.ai turns their frustration into a
                        working agent in 10 minutes &mdash; no SSH, no VPS fiddling.

                    <h3>💰 Two Ways to Earn</h3>
                    <p>
                        You earn when someone signs up through your link. Plus, when they
                        use the wizard to add integrations, you can place your own
                        affiliate links there too &mdash; a second chance to earn on the
                        tools your audience needs.

                        Your link lives inside the derez.ai setup wizard &mdash; not just
                        a static URL in a video description. Every user who goes through
                        the flow sees it at the right moment.

            <h2>How It <span class="highlight">Works</span></h2>
            <p>
                When you register as a client and you get your first Agent with
                derez.ai you already get all your affiliate package: your affiliate
                code and link, access to the configuration of your outgoing links.
                Easy as all of our services.
            </p>
        </div>

     SECOND CHANCE
     ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════ -->
    <section class="affiliate-section" style="border-top: 1px solid var(--border)">
        <div class="container">
            <h2>The <span class="highlight">Second Chance</span> to Earn</h2>
            <p>
                Most affiliate programs give you one shot: someone clicks your link
                and either converts or doesn't. We give you a second.
            </p>
            <p>
                When a derez.ai user opens the wizard to integrate a new tool &mdash;
                whether it's Semrush for SEO, Shopify for ecommerce, Stripe for
                payments, or any of the other integrations we support &mdash; your
                affiliate link for that service gets shown. You help the content
                creator find the right tool <em>and</em> you earn a commission on
                that signup too.
            </p>
            <p>
                Think of it this way: your main link gets them into derez.ai. Your
                integration links help them build on top of it. Two revenue streams
                from one audience.
            </p>
            <div class="highlight-box">
                <h3>✅ Best Part</h3>
                <p>
                    When you have an account on derez.ai, you already have access to
                    the affiliate area. No separate dashboard, no additional login.
                    Your affiliate tools are right there alongside your agent.

            <h2>Why Your Audience Will <span class="highlight">Thank You</span></h2>
            <p>
                Your viewers come to you because they want to work with AI agents &mdash;
                not because they want to debug SSH configs at 2 AM. derez.ai removes
                every barrier:
            </p>
            <ul class="affiliate-list">
                <li>
                    <strong>No VPS setup needed.</strong> We create the server, install
                    everything, and hand them a working agent in minutes.
                </li>
                <li>
                    <strong>Automatic backups.</strong> One click and their agent state
                    is saved. No more losing hours of work.
                </li>
                <li>
                    <strong>One-click integrations.</strong> Semrush, Shopify, Stripe,
                    Odoo, n8n &mdash; if it's in the wizard, it's minutes away from
                    working.
                </li>
                <li>
                    <strong>Full SSH access.</strong> For the power users who want
                    control. We don't lock anyone in.
                </li>
            </ul>
            <p>
                The result? More playtime, more experimentation, and more content
                created. Your audience gets more value from their agent, and you
                get credit for sending them to a solution that actually works.

            <span class="chip-tag">verification</span>
        </div>
        <p>
            When I ask my agent to fix a bug or write a module, I don't want it to <em>say</em> "done" — I want it to <strong>prove</strong> it. That's the difference between an agent that's useful for demos and one you can trust with real work.
        </p>
        <p>
            <a href="https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/releases/tag/v2026.7.1">Hermes Agent v0.18.0</a> ("The Judgment Release", July 1, 2026) introduces a verification system that changes how agents finish tasks. Instead of the model deciding "I think I fixed it," your agent now runs your actual project checks and produces evidence before claiming completion.
        </p>
        <div class="quote-box">
            "The tests pass. Here's proof." — Instead of "I think it works."
        </div>
        <h2>The Trust Problem with AI Agents</h2>
        <p>
            Every business I talk to who's tried deploying an AI agent runs into the same wall: <strong>how do I know it actually did what it said?</strong> LLMs are optimised to sound confident, not to be accurate. An agent that writes code, modifies files, or runs queries and then claims "all done" without evidence — that's a liability, not a tool.
        </p>
        <p>
            Before v0.18.0, an agent's standard for "done" was its own internal certainty. If you asked "is the API endpoint working?" it would say yes based on what it remembered writing, not based on actually hitting the endpoint.
        </p>
        <h2>What Changed: Completion Contracts</h2>
        <p>
            Every <code>/goal</code> directive can now include a <strong>completion contract</strong> — a statement of what "done" looks like, measured by real evidence. The standing-goal loop judges completion against that evidence instead of stopping when the model feels like it.
        </p>
        <p>Here's a practical example. Before:</p>
        <div class="cmd-block">
 /goal Add login validation to the API<br />
 <br />
 # Agent writes code, says "done"<br />
 # No proof. Maybe it works. Maybe it doesn't.
        </div>
        <p>After — with a completion contract:</p>
        <div class="cmd-block">
 /goal Add login validation to the API<br />
 done when: the test suite passes, the new endpoint<br />
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;returns 200 for valid credentials and 401 for invalid ones,<br />
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and a curl smoke test confirms both cases
        </div>
        <p>
            The agent writes the code, runs the test suite, executes the curl smoke tests, collects the evidence, and only then reports completion. If any check fails, the agent tries again or reports what broke.
        </p>
        <h2>How Verification Evidence Works</h2>
        <p>Behind the scenes, the agent now records verification evidence for every significant action:</p>
        <div class="feature-grid">
            <div class="feature-card">
                <h3>Test Suite Runs</h3>
                <p>The agent executes your project's actual tests (pytest, vitest, whatever you use) and captures the output.</p>
            </div>
            <div class="feature-card">
                <h3>SMOKE CHECKs</h3>
                <p>Curl endpoints, check HTTP status codes, validate response bodies. Real network calls, not speculation.</p>
            </div>
            <div class="feature-card">
                <h3>File Verification</h3>
                <p>Stat files, check contents, run linters. The agent confirms files exist with the right content.</p>
            </div>
            <div class="feature-card">
                <h3>Custom Hooks</h3>
                <p><code>pre_verify</code> hooks let you wire in any custom check. Run your deployment pipeline or integration tests.</p>
            </div>
        </div>
        <h2>Why This Matters for Your Business</h2>
        <p>
            Here's the blunt truth: <strong>you shouldn't deploy an agent that can't verify its own work.</strong> Not for customer-facing code, not for internal tooling, not for anything that costs you money if it's wrong.
        </p>
        <p>
            The verification system in v0.18.0 turns your agent from a "helpful intern who sounds sure" into a "senior engineer who shows receipts." You still review — but you review evidence, not promises.
        </p>
        <p>Three business scenarios where this matters immediately:</p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Revenue-critical code changes</strong> — An agent modifying a checkout flow must prove the payment gateway responds correctly before claiming done</li>
            <li><strong>Data pipeline automation</strong> — An agent transforming CRM exports must verify every record processed matches the expected count</li>
            <li><strong>Deployment readiness</strong> — An agent preparing a release must run the full CI suite and show you the green checkmarks</li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Getting Started</h2>
        <p>If you're on Hermes Agent v0.18.0+, the verification system works out of the box with sensible defaults. No config required to start. The one-time migration tunes the defaults for your project:</p>
        <div class="cmd-block">
 hermes upgrade  # to v0.18.0 or later<br />
 # Verification is active by default.<br />
 # Start a goal with a "done when" clause and watch the evidence roll in.
        </div>
        <p>
            The <code>pre_verify</code> hook is available if you want custom pipelines. Full docs are in the <a href="https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/releases/tag/v2026.7.1">release notes</a>.
        </p>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <strong>Pro tip:</strong> Start with small scope — "done when the endpoint returns 200" — and expand to full test suites as you build trust. The evidence output alone is worth it: you can see exactly what the agent checked, even if you were away from the keyboard.
        </div>
        <h2>What Else v0.18.0 Ships</h2>
        <p>This release is massive. Besides verification, it also ships:</p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>MoA as a first-class model</strong> — Pick an ensemble of frontier models like any other model. See every model's reasoning, then watch the answer stream in.</li>
            <li><strong><code>/learn</code></strong> — Turn any directory, URL, or workflow into a reusable skill with one command.</li>
            <li><strong><code>/journey</code></strong> — A playable timeline of everything your agent has learned. Edit or delete memories and skills right from the view.</li>
            <li><strong>Background fan-out</strong> — Run multiple subagents in parallel while you keep working. Results come back consolidated.</li>
        </ul>
        <p>
            But honestly? The verification system is the one I'd start with. Trust is the bottleneck to real agent deployment — and this is what unlocks it.
        </p>

            <span class="chip-tag">hermes</span>
        </div>
        <p>I post on LinkedIn for derez.ai multiple times a week. Research a topic, write the post, navigate the admin dashboard, click through popups, paste the link, hit publish, then repeat for a relevant LinkedIn group.</p>
        <p>That's about 20 minutes per post — if everything goes smoothly. And I was doing it manually. Which felt ridiculous, given I run a company that builds AI agents.</p>
        <p>So I automated it. All of it.</p>
        <h2>What the Pipeline Does</h2>
        <p>Every time I want to publish a LinkedIn update for derez.ai, the process is now entirely agent-driven:</p>
        <ol>
            <li><strong>Research</strong> — My agent pulls the latest from our blog index, GitHub releases, and relevant community discussions to propose 3 post topics with business angles.</li>
            <li><strong>Create</strong> — A blog post is written and published on derez.ai in HTML format, added to the blog index, and git-committed.</li>
            <li><strong>Publish to Company Page</strong> — The agent connects to Brave browser on my workstation through a secure CDP tunnel, logs into the LinkedIn admin dashboard, clicks "Erstellen" → "Beitrag beginnen", writes the post, adds the link with UTM tracking, and hits "Posten".</li>
            <li><strong>Cross-post to Group</strong> — The content is adapted for the best-fit LinkedIn group (STARTUP SPECIALISTS NETWORK with 1.2M members, ERP Community, etc.) and posted as a separate, audience-tailored update.</li>
            <li><strong>Verify</strong> — The agent confirms the post was published and reports back with a status.</li>
        </ol>
        <h2>The Technical Setup</h2>
        <p>Here's the stack that makes it work:</p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Hermes Agent</strong> — Skilled with the <code>linkedin-company-post</code> and <code>linkedin-group-posting</code> workflows. It knows exactly which buttons to click, what the editor looks like, and how to verify a successful post.</li>
            <li><strong>Chrome DevTools Protocol</strong> — Brave runs on my workstation. A persistent remote browser connection exposes its CDP endpoint to my server. The agent sends WebSocket commands (navigate, click, type, evaluate JS) to drive the browser remotely.</li>
            <li><strong>UTM-aware linking</strong> — Every link to derez.ai automatically gets <code>?utm_source=derez&utm_campaign=linkedin</code> for company page posts and <code>?utm_source=derez&utm_campaign=groups</code> for group posts. No manual tracking.</li>
            <li><strong>German UI, English content</strong> — My LinkedIn is in German. The agent handles both — clicking buttons labeled "Erstellen" and "Posten" while writing the post content in English.</li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Why This Matters for Business</h2>
        <p>The biggest bottleneck in content marketing isn't ideas — it's execution. You have the insight, you know what to say, but the publishing process (open LinkedIn → navigate to the right page → wait for the editor → format → add link → double-check → publish) eats up the small windows of creative momentum you actually have.</p>
        <p>Automating the publishing workflow means:</p>
        <ul>
            <li>→ I post more consistently — no more "I'll do it later" (spoiler: later never comes)</li>
            <li>→ Every post gets the right UTM tracking — no more "oops, I forgot the link"</li>
            <li>→ Cross-posting to groups happens automatically — I was skipping this entirely because it was too much friction</li>
            <li>→ The entire cycle from idea to published post takes minutes, not 20-30 minutes per platform</li>
        </ul>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <strong>Pro tip:</strong> This pipeline works because Hermes Agent isn't just a chat interface — it's an automation platform with skills, CDP browser control, and cron jobs. The same agent that answers your questions can also drive your browser, post to social media, and manage your blog. That's the power of an agent that can <em>execute</em>, not just talk.
        </div>
        <h2>What I Learned Building This</h2>
        <p>Three things surprised me:</p>
        <ol>
            <li><p><strong>CDP is incredibly reliable once you handle the edge cases.</strong> The main pitfalls are stale tabs (from hung scripts leaving WebSockets open) and the <code>loadEventFired</code> race condition. Once you have a robust <code>send_cmd</code> that filters by message ID and a fresh-tab workflow, it runs every time.</p></li>
            <li><p><strong>LinkedIn's UI is deceptively nested.</strong> The "Beitrag beginnen" menu item isn't a button — it's an <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> tag nested 5 levels deep inside a popup menu. Finding it requires walking the DOM by innerText, then climbing up to the clickable parent. My agent has a universal element walker for this exact reason.</p></li>
            <li><p><strong>The editor matters more than the button.</strong> LinkedIn uses a Quill.js editor for group posts and a plain contenteditable for the company page. Each needs different DOM handling. Once you know which editor you're dealing with, the rest is straightforward.</p></li>
        </ol>
        <h2>Try It Yourself</h2>
        <p>If you're running Hermes Agent, you can build this pipeline too. The skills are bundled with the agent — just load <code>linkedin-company-post</code> and <code>linkedin-group-posting</code>, set up a CDP tunnel to your local Brave, and your agent handles the rest.</p>
        <p>If you're not running Hermes yet, you can be live in under 10 minutes. SSH access, managed dashboard, full-disk backups — everything included.</p>

        </div>
        <p>We sell Hermes Agent instances. So we use Hermes Agent to run our business.</p>
        <p>That sounds obvious, but it's not as common as you'd think. A lot of companies build a product they don't actually use themselves. The sales team uses Salesforce. The support team uses Zendesk. The product they sell is something <em>other</em> people use.</p>
        <p>At derez.ai, we decided to go the other way. Every Hermes agent we sell is the same product we use internally. Our cold emails are written by a Hermes agent. Our CRM is managed by a Hermes agent. Our inbox is sorted by a Hermes agent. Our blog posts are drafted, reviewed, and published with the help of Hermes agents.</p>
        <p>This series exists to inspire <em>you</em> to do the same. Not because we're special — because Hermes makes it possible for any business. We want to show you exactly how a small team can use AI agents as an engine for daily operations. Real workflows, real prompts, real results, real mistakes.</p>
        <p>And we're structuring everything we build so you can take it and use it yourself.</p>
        <h2>Why a series?</h2>
        <p>Because the real story isn't "we use our own product" — that's a one-liner. The real story is the <em>how</em>, and that "how" should be something <strong>you can copy</strong>.</p>
        <p>Every workflow we build is designed to be reusable. We're not writing custom scripts for a one-off setup. We're building a structured agent — with its own personality, skills, cron jobs, and configuration — that any business could adapt to their own needs. Same Hermes Agent, different company name, different CRM webhook, different email address.</p>
        <ul>
            <li>How did we set up a cold email agent that sends 5 personalized emails per day without any human drafting?</li>
            <li>How did we connect a Hermes agent to our CRM so it can read, write, and update contact records automatically?</li>
            <li>How did we build an inbox sorter that runs every hour and keeps our inbox clean?</li>
            <li>How did we structure our sales agent's personality so it sounds like a human, not a bot?</li>
            <li>How do we handle the awkward moments — when the agent drafts a bad email, or misclassifies a prospect, or sends something Oliver wouldn't have written?</li>
        </ul>
        <p>Each post will cover one workflow, start to finish. The setup, the prompts, the mistakes, the fixes. Real numbers, not theory — packaged so you can use the same patterns.</p>
        <div class="series-card">
            <h3>What to expect</h3>
            <p>Posts in this series will be tagged with the <strong>story</strong> badge. Planned topics include:</p>
            <ul>
                <li><a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/building-a-company-plugin.html">Part 2: How I built the derez-company plugin and gave Hermes write access to the repo</a></li>
                <li>How our sales agent uses Hermes to send cold emails every day</li>
                <li>Building a CRM agent that talks to our n8n backend</li>
                <li>The hourly inbox sorter — spam classification, client routing, auto-reply</li>
                <li>How we use cron jobs to run business processes 24/7</li>
                <li>Dogfooding mistakes: what broke, what we fixed, what we learned</li>
                <li>Why we deleted the old cron job that sent 5 emails per hour (too many)</li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <h2>This is not a tutorial</h2>
        <p>There are plenty of Hermes Agent tutorials — speed runs, guides, how-tos. This series is different. It's a <em>case study</em> of a real company using the tool to run actual business operations. Think of it as the behind-the-scenes look at how derez.ai works.</p>
        <p>Some of it will be specific to our setup. Some of it will be useful patterns you can adapt. All of it will be honest — including the parts where we got it wrong.</p>
        <h2>Where we are today</h2>
        <p>As of this post, we have:</p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>4 cron jobs</strong> running daily — email sorter, cold email batch, reference feedback check, weekly strategy review</li>
            <li><strong>8 skills</strong> installed on our sales agent — cold email, CRM, email sending, pain point tracking, affiliate program, and more</li>
            <li><strong>Hundreds of emails</strong> sent through the agent — some replied to, most ignored, a few productive conversations started</li>
            <li><strong>One dedicated sales profile</strong> — a separate Hermes agent that only does sales work, isolated from the main agent</li>
            <li><strong>One reusable distribution</strong> — the entire sales agent packaged as a template with {{VARS}} instead of hardcoded values, ready for any company to adapt</li>
        </ul>
        <p>It's not a perfect system. We still have spam filters learning our patterns. We still send emails that get no reply. But it's a <em>working</em> system — and every week it gets better because the agent itself helps us improve it.</p>
        <p>That's the part I find most interesting. The sales agent doesn't just send emails. It also reviews the results, suggests improvements, and updates its own approach. The cron job that reviews ICP strategy every Saturday? It's run by the same Hermes agent that sends the cold emails.</p>
        <p>The agent is not a tool we use. The agent is a colleague who works on the business with us.</p>

        </p>
        <p>In the first post I said we were structuring everything as a reusable distribution. This post is about the step I took to actually build it.</p>
        <p>I created a Hermes plugin called <strong>derez-company</strong>. It bundles all the skills my business needs into a single installable plugin. CRM, dashboard, sales, marketing — all in one repo, one install command, and one dashboard tab that shows me everything at a glance.</p>
        <p>The repo is here: <a href="https://github.com/AquaMCU/derez-company">github.com/AquaMCU/derez-company</a></p>
        <h2>What's in the plugin</h2>
        <p>The plugin has two live skills so far:</p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>derez-crm</strong> — A complete CRM data skill that uses plain Markdown files as the database. Every lead is a Markdown file with YAML frontmatter. No database, no API, no lock-in. Humans can read and edit it. Agents can read and edit it. Funnel stages, statuses, sources — all configured via Markdown config files.</li>
            <li><strong>dashboard</strong> — A Hermes dashboard plugin that auto-discovers reports from the company data directory and renders them as HTML in the Hermes dashboard. It renders weekly status cards with SVG line charts showing lead counts, conversion rates, and trends.</li>
        </ul>
        <p>Sales and marketing skills are in progress. The architecture is designed so each skill is independent and composable — you can install just the CRM without the dashboard, or just the dashboard without the CRM.</p>
        <h2>First 70 leads on the dashboard</h2>
        <p>I imported 70 leads into the Markdown-based CRM. Each one is a single <code>.md</code> file with structured YAML frontmatter. The dashboard picks them up automatically and renders a weekly status view with trend lines.</p>
        <p>No SQL. No API calls. No database migrations. Just files in a folder that both I and my agent can read and write.</p>
        <div class="lesson-box">
            <p><strong>Lesson learned the hard way:</strong> I suck at developing a Hermes plugin with z.dev and then importing it into my Hermes. The local dev loop was painful — write code, exit Hermes, install the plugin, restart, test, repeat. Every iteration took minutes. Mistakes meant digging through logs. It felt like I was fighting the tool instead of building with it.</p>
        </div>
        <h2>The workflow change that fixed everything</h2>
        <p>Halfway through building the dashboard plugin, I stopped doing it myself and changed the workflow entirely.</p>
        <p>I gave my Hermes agent <strong>write access to the GitHub repo</strong> and let Hermes build the plugin.</p>
        <p>Here's what that looks like in practice:</p>
        <ol>
            <li>I tell my Hermes agent what I want — "add a weekly status card to the dashboard that shows lead conversion trends"</li>
            <li>The agent writes the code, commits to the repo, and pushes</li>
            <li>The plugin auto-updates on the next Hermes restart</li>
        </ol>
        <p>This reversed the entire development flow. Instead of me learning the plugin API, debugging install paths, and fighting the dev loop — I described what I wanted in plain English and let the agent who <em>already knows</em> the Hermes plugin API write the code.</p>
        <p>The agent doesn't get blocked by z.dev documentation gaps. It doesn't need to restart and check. It writes, commits, pushes — and I just pull the result.</p>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <p><strong>The insight:</strong> The fastest way to build a Hermes plugin is to not build it yourself. Give your agent the repo keys and describe what you want. It knows the API better than you do.</p>
        </div>
        <h2>What this means for the open-source plan</h2>
        <p>In the first post I teased that we'd open-source our sales agent profile. The plugin approach changes the plan slightly — instead of distributing a profile with {{VARS}} placeholders, the skills live in a plugin repo that any Hermes user can install with one command:</p>
        <pre>hermes plugins install https://github.com/AquaMCU/derez-company.git</pre>
        <p>The plugin is installable on any Hermes instance, including hosted agents on derez.ai. Once it's installed, the skills (CRM, dashboard, sales, marketing) are available to the agent. The data lives in Markdown files under <code>company/</code> in the agent's home directory — portable, human-readable, git-friendly.</p>
        <h2>What's next</h2>
        <p>The CRM skill is live with 70 leads. The dashboard shows weekly progress with trend charts. The next step is wiring it all together:</p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>The sales agent</strong> — use the CRM data with the email skill to start making first contacts. Load leads from the CRM, qualify them, send personalized cold emails, track responses back in the CRM.</li>
            <li><strong>LinkedIn posting</strong> — the agent drafts and posts to LinkedIn (both personal feed and groups) based on CRM activity and content it generates.</li>
            <li><strong>Marketing skill</strong> — campaign tracking, content pipeline, channel analytics. All Markdown-based, all composable.</li>
        </ul>
        <p>The CRM with 70 leads is the foundation. Everything else builds on top of it.</p>
        <div class="pro-tip" style="border-left-color: #888; margin-top: 40px;">
            <p><strong>Try it yourself.</strong> Install the <a href="https://github.com/AquaMCU/derez-company">derez-company plugin</a> on your Hermes agent, or get a hosted agent at derez.ai and search for it in the skill library. The CRM and dashboard work out of the box.</p>

        <p>
            On July 1, 2026, the Nous Research team released <strong>Hermes Agent v0.18.0</strong> — "The Judgment Release."
            Sandwiched between the numbers is a story that matters for every single person running an AI agent today:
            the team resolved every P0 and P1 issue in the entire repository. <strong>Zero open criticals. Zero open high-priority. Not one.</strong>
        </p>
        <p>
            That is not hyperbole. It is the commit history.
        </p>
        <h2>The Numbers, Because They Matter</h2>
        <table class="clean-table">
            <tr><th>Metric</th><th>Value</th></tr>
            <tr><td>Release Date</td><td>July 1, 2026</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Since v0.17.0</td><td>~12 days</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Commits</td><td>~1,720</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Merged PRs</td><td>998</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Issues Closed</td><td>949</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Files Changed</td><td>2,215</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Insertions</td><td>~251,000</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Deletions</td><td>~41,000</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Community Contributors</td><td>370+</td></tr>
            <tr><td>GitHub Stars</td><td>208,000</td></tr>
            <tr><td>Forks</td><td>37,800</td></tr>
        </table>
        <p>
            Let that sink in. <strong>Nearly 1,000 issues closed in 12 days.</strong> That is roughly 79 issues per day,
            or 3.3 per hour around the clock. The team did not take a break. They burned through the priority backlog
            day and night.
        </p>
        <h2>The P0/P1 Sweep — Why It Matters</h2>
        <p>
            Most open-source projects have a long tail of open issues. P0 (critical) bugs that never got fixed.
            P1 (high-priority) features that nobody had time to polish. They accumulate. They become the
            "we'll get to it" pile that everyone knows will never shrink.
        </p>
        <p>
            Hermes Agent's team decided that was unacceptable. In twelve days they resolved:
        </p>
        <table class="clean-table">
            <tr><th>Priority</th><th>Issues Closed</th><th>PRs Merged</th></tr>
            <tr><td>P0 (critical)</td><td>3</td><td>8</td></tr>
            <tr><td>P1 (high)</td><td>493</td><td>188</td></tr>
            <tr><td><strong>Total</strong></td><td><strong>496</strong></td><td><strong>196</strong></td></tr>
        </table>
        <p>
            The final cluster to fall was the interrupt-protected-compression sibling-fork bug — 
            issue <strong>#56391</strong> and its fix <strong>#56416</strong>, closed on an all-nighter 
            right before the release cut.
        </p>
        <p>
            Special recognition goes to <strong>@kshitijk4poor</strong>, who burned through the priority 
            backlog alongside the core team — the cron reliability wave, the compression-fork fix, 
            the credential-exfil hardening, and a huge share of the P1 closures are his.
        </p>

        </div>
        <h2>But This Is Not Just a Cleanup Story</h2>
        <p>
            v0.18.0 is called "The Judgment Release" for a reason. Beyond the clean sweep, it introduces 
            capabilities that change what an AI agent can do:
        </p>
        <h3>🧠 Mixture-of-Agents (MoA)</h3>
        <p>
            Named ensembles of models that you can pick like any other model. Every reference model's 
            reasoning is shown to you, and the aggregator's answer streams live. Instead of asking one 
            model, your agent orchestrates a panel of them.
        </p>
        <h3>✅ Verification Evidence & Completion Contracts</h3>
        <p>
            The <code>/goal</code> command now has completion contracts. Instead of the agent claiming 
            "done" when it feels like stopping, it must produce evidence of completion. The standing-goal 
            loop judges completion against actual proof — tests pass, files exist, APIs respond. 
            The agent proves its work.
        </p>
        <h3>📈 Self-Improvement You Can See</h3>
        <p>
            <code>/learn</code> and <code>/journey</code> turned self-improvement into something you can 
            observe and steer. The agent doesn't just get better — it shows you how.
        </p>
        <h3>🏗️ Deployable at Scale</h3>
        <p>
            The gateway now supports scale-to-zero, drain coordination, and proper production deployment. 
            The desktop client has first-class coding projects and a playable memory graph. Subagents 
            can fan out in the background — parallel work without blocking the main conversation.
        </p>
        <h2>What This Means for Your Agents</h2>
        <p>
            Every one of the closed issues represents something that <strong>could</strong> have affected 
            your agent. A cron reliability bug. A credential leak path. A compression race condition. 
            They are all gone now.
        </p>
        <p>
            If you are running Hermes Agent, update to v0.18.0. If you are evaluating agent frameworks, 
            this kind of velocity — 1,720 commits in 12 days, zero open P0s, 370+ contributors — 
            tells you everything you need to know about the project's health.
        </p>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <strong>Running Hermes Agent on derez.ai?</strong> 
            Your instance was updated to v0.18.0 automatically. The new features — 
            MoA, verification evidence, /learn, /journey — are available right now. 
            Just tell your agent what you want.
        </div>
        <h2>The Meta Note</h2>
        <p>
            This blog post was written by a Hermes Agent. The same update that resolved 949 issues 
            also powers the agent that researched the release notes, structured this article, 
            generated the HTML, and deployed it to this site — all while the founder was doing 
            something else entirely.
        </p>
        <p>
            An agent that just got its biggest quality-of-life update ever. An agent that now proves 
            its work before saying "done." An agent that can orchestrate multiple models to get you 
            a better answer.
        </p>
        <p>
            And it wrote this post to tell you about it.

        <h1>Hermes Agent v0.18.0 — A Business Review</h1>
        <div class="meta">
            <span>July 2, 2026</span>
            <span class="area-tag">review</span>
            <span class="chip-tag">hermes</span>
            <span class="chip-tag">v0.18.0</span>
        </div>
        <p>
            I run a small business that hosts AI agents for other businesses. Every month or so, the Hermes Agent team drops
            a new release. Most of the time I skim the release notes, nod at the technical improvements, and move on.
        </p>
        <p>
            But v0.18.0 — "The Judgment Release" — made me stop and read the whole thing. Not because of the code changes,
            but because of what they signal about the project's maturity.
        </p>
        <h2>The Headline Numbers (Business Edition)</h2>
        <div class="review-box">
            <p><strong>Release:</strong> Hermes Agent v0.18.0 — July 1, 2026</p>
            <p><strong>Development pace:</strong> 1,720 commits in 12 days</p>
            <p><strong>Team velocity:</strong> 998 pull requests merged</p>
            <p><strong>Community:</strong> 370+ contributors, 208,000 GitHub stars</p>
            <p><strong>Bug sweep:</strong> All 496 P0 and P1 issues closed to zero</p>
            <p><strong>My score:</strong> <span class="score">9/10</span></p>
        </div>
        <p>
            From a business perspective, the most important number isn't the commits or the stars.
            It's that <strong>zero</strong>. Zero open critical bugs. Zero open high-priority issues.
        </p>
        <p>
            If you're running a business on top of an open-source project, that number is everything.
            It means the team is not accumulating technical debt. It means they can focus on features
            instead of fires. It means when something breaks, it gets fixed — not buried in a backlog.
        </p>
        <h2>What Actually Changes for a Business User?</h2>
        <p>
            Let me translate the release notes from developer-speak to business-speak.
        </p>
        <h3>Verification Evidence — Your Agent Proves Its Work</h3>
        <p>
            Before this release, your agent would say "done" when it felt like stopping. Now it has to
            produce evidence. If you ask it to generate a report, it must show you the report exists.
            If you ask it to update records, it must confirm the changes.
        </p>
        <p>
            <strong>Business impact:</strong> <em>Trust.</em> You no longer have to babysit your agent to make sure it
            actually finished the job. The agent proves its work before moving on. For a business owner,
            that's the difference between a tool you occasionally check and a tool you can rely on.
        </p>
        <h3>Mixture-of-Agents — Better Answers, Not Just Faster Ones</h3>
        <p>
            Your agent can now orchestrate multiple AI models at once. Instead of asking one model and
            hoping it's right, the agent asks several, compares their reasoning, and gives you the best answer.
        </p>
        <p>
            <strong>Business impact:</strong> <em>Quality.</em> If your agent is researching competitors, drafting
            proposals, or analyzing data, it's now getting a second opinion — and a third — before it
            comes back to you. This matters most for anything where accuracy has a cost.
        </p>
        <h3>Self-Improvement You Can See</h3>
        <p>
            The new <code>/learn</code> and <code>/journey</code> commands let your agent track how it's improving
            over time. It can show you what it learned from each task and how it adjusted its approach.
        </p>
        <p>
            <strong>Business impact:</strong> <em>Accountability.</em> You can see whether your agent is getting better
            at the work you give it. If it's not, you can steer it. That's a feature every manager wishes
            their human employees had.
        </p>
        <h3>Gateway Scale-to-Zero</h3>
        <p>
            The gateway — the part that connects your agent to external tools and services — now scales
            down to zero when idle. No wasted resources. No server costs when nothing is happening.
        </p>
        <p>
            <strong>Business impact:</strong> <em>Cost control.</em> On derez.ai, this means your agent costs less
            when you're not using it. Infrastructure that charges only when it's working is the right
            model for a business tool.
        </p>
        <h2>The Clean Sweep — Why It Matters for Your Business</h2>
        <p>
            The Hermes team closed 949 issues in 12 days. Every P0 and P1 is now at zero. Here's why
            that matters if you're running agents for your business:
        </p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Reliability.</strong> The cron scheduling bugs, the credential leak paths, the compression
            race conditions — all fixed. Your agent won't drop a scheduled task or leak sensitive data.</li>
            <li><strong>Velocity.</strong> A team that can close 1,720 commits in 12 days is a team that ships fast.
            When you need a feature, it won't take a year to land.</li>
            <li><strong>Staying power.</strong> 208,000 stars and 37,800 forks means this project has momentum.
            It's not going away. Building your workflow on Hermes is a safe bet.</li>
        </ul>
        <div class="verdict">
            <strong>Verdict:</strong> v0.18.0 is the release where Hermes Agent stopped being a promising
            experiment and became a serious business tool. The verification evidence alone changes
            how much you can trust your agent to work unsupervised. If you're running agents for
            your business and haven't updated yet, this is the one to upgrade to.
        </div>
        <h2>Where It Falls Short</h2>
        <p>
            No release is perfect. My honest gripes:
        </p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Documentation is still playing catch-up.</strong> Mixture-of-Agents is powerful, but
            figuring out how to configure ensembles takes more reading than it should. The docs team
            has ground to cover.</li>
            <li><strong>The "Judgment" branding is developer-focused.</strong> "Completion contracts" and
            "verification evidence" are terms developers love. Business users would call them
            "confirmation" and "proof of work." The marketing could be clearer.</li>
            <li><strong>Still CLI-heavy.</strong> If you're not comfortable with a terminal, some of the
            configuration is intimidating. The desktop app helps, but the power features are still
            command-line only.</li>
        </ul>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <strong>On derez.ai, this is all handled for you.</strong> Your agent instance was updated
            to v0.18.0 automatically. Verification evidence, MoA, /learn, /journey — all available.
            No CLI needed. Just tell your agent what you want.
        </div>

            This is the first and simplest method from the <a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/three-ways-integrate-odoo-hermes.html?utm_source=derez&utm_campaign=email">three ways to integrate Odoo with Hermes Agent</a> — direct XML-RPC API calls.
            Your agent connects straight to your Odoo instance, no middleware, no MCP server, no n8n pipeline.
            Just your agent and your ERP talking directly. That's the core of <strong><a href="https://derez.ai/odoo-hermes">Odoo Hermes</a></strong>.

        <h2>What you'll build</h2>
        <p>By the end of this guide, your Hermes Agent will:</p>
        <ul>
            <li>Connect to your Odoo instance using an API key</li>
            <li>Search and read records from any Odoo model</li>
            <li>Pull live leads, sales orders, and inventory data</li>
            <li>Answer business questions in natural language</li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Prerequisites</h2>
        <p>You need a running Odoo instance and a Hermes Agent. Here are the exact credentials from my demo instance — use these to follow along, then swap in your own.</p>
        <div class="prereq-group">
            <div class="group-label">Integration &mdash; ODOO Community</div>
            <p style="font-size:0.9rem;color:#999;margin-bottom:8px">These are live credentials from a demo Odoo Community instance on ODOO4projects. They work right now.</p>
            <ul>
                <li><strong>URL</strong> &mdash; <code>https://006-003-1d9183bb-8430-41a8-85a3-842b2b4d279d.odoo4projects.com/</code></li>

                <li><strong>Password</strong> &mdash; <code>changeme</code></li>
                <li><strong>Database</strong> &mdash; <code>006-003-1d9183bb-8430-41a8-85a3-842b2b4d279d</code></li>
                <li><strong>API Key</strong> &mdash; <code>602e6ea0a0adda65b344a282495da3b05525f63f</code></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <div class="prereq-group">
            <div class="group-label">Runtime &mdash; Hermes Agent</div>
            <ul>
                <li>Hermes Agent installed and running (see the <a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/hermes-agent-setup-guide.html?utm_source=derez&utm_campaign=email">setup guide</a> if you're starting from zero)</li>
                <li>Access to your Hermes <code>config.yaml</code></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <h2>Step 1 — Generate an Odoo API Key</h2>
        <div class="step-card">
            <h3><span class="step-num">1</span> Go to Settings &rarr; Users &rarr; Technical</h3>
            <p>In your Odoo instance, navigate to <strong>Settings → Users → select your user → Technical</strong>. Scroll to the <strong>Security</strong> section and click <strong>Generate API Key</strong>.</p>
            <p>Name it something descriptive like <code>hermes-agent</code>. Copy the key immediately — Odoo only shows it once.</p>
        </div>
        <p>If you're using the demo instance above, the API key is already generated and ready.</p>
        <h2>Step 2 — Add the Connection to Hermes</h2>
        <p>Edit your Hermes <code>config.yaml</code> and add the Odoo connection block:</p>
        <div class="cmd-block">
 # ~/.hermes/config.yaml (or your profile config)<br />
 <br />
 odoo:<br />
 &nbsp;&nbsp;url: "https://006-003-1d9183bb-8430-41a8-85a3-842b2b4d279d.odoo4projects.com"<br />
 &nbsp;&nbsp;db: "006-003-1d9183bb-8430-41a8-85a3-842b2b4d279d"<br />
 &nbsp;&nbsp;user: "changeme@odoo4projects.com"<br />
 &nbsp;&nbsp;api_key: "602e6ea0a0adda65b344a282495da3b05525f63f"<br />
 &nbsp;&nbsp;readonly: true
        </div>
        <p>Set <code>readonly: true</code> if the agent only needs to query data (recommended for first setup). Remove it or set <code>false</code> if you want the agent to create or modify records.</p>
        <h2>Step 3 — Give Your Agent the Connection Prompt</h2>
        <p>Now paste this prompt into your Hermes Agent session. It tells the agent exactly how to reach your Odoo database using the credentials from Step 2:</p>
        <div class="cmd-block">
 		Connect to the ODOO 19 database with the credentials $ODOO_URL $ODOO_USER $ODOO_APIKEY<br>
 		open {url}/doc and read the available models and methods. Use the JSON api to connect to ODOO and do not login to the web UI.<br>
 		create a skill to access ODOO
        </div>
        <p>The agent reads the environment variables (or the config block you just set up) and establishes the XML-RPC connection. Once it confirms, you're ready to query data.</p>
        <h2>Step 4 — Start Hermes and Verify</h2>
        <p>Start or restart your Hermes Agent:</p>
        <div class="cmd-block">
 hermes start
        </div>
        <p>Now ask your agent something simple to verify the connection works:</p>
        <div class="cmd-block">
 > Give me a list of customers with their email addresses.
        </div>
        <p>If everything is configured correctly, the agent returns live data from your Odoo instance. Here's what it looks like with the demo instance:</p>
        <div class="result-block">
 Here are the customers I found in your Odoo instance:<br />
 <br />
 1. Azure Interior — azure.interior@example.com<br />
 2. Deco Addict — deco.addict@example.com<br />
 3. Gem Furniture — gem.furniture@example.com<br />
 4. Lumber Inc — lumber.inc@example.com<br />
 5. The Kitchen Studio — the.kitchen.studio@example.com<br />
 6. Best Design — best.design@example.com<br />
 7. Grace Interior Design Studio — grace.interior.design@example.com<br />
 8. Capital Park — capital.park@example.com<br />
 <br />
 Total: 8 customers in CRM
        </div>
        <p>That's it. Three minutes, one config block, and your agent talks to Odoo.</p>
        <h2>What you can do now</h2>
        <p>Once the connection is live, try these queries:</p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>"Show me all leads in the CRM"</strong> — pulls from <code>crm.lead</code></li>
            <li><strong>"List my recent sales orders"</strong> — queries <code>sale.order</code></li>
            <li><strong>"What products are low on stock?"</strong> — checks <code>stock.quant</code> for low quantities</li>
            <li><strong>"What's the total value of open quotes?"</strong> — sums <code>sale.order</code> with <code>state = 'draft'</code></li>
            <li><strong>"Create a new lead for ACME Corp"</strong> — if <code>readonly</code> is off, the agent creates records too</li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Security first</h2>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Create a dedicated Odoo user</strong> for the agent — never use your admin account</li>
            <li><strong>Use read-only access</strong> unless the agent needs to create or modify records</li>
            <li><strong>Restrict model access</strong> to only the models the agent needs (CRM, Sales, Inventory — not Settings)</li>
            <li><strong>Rotate the API key</strong> periodically, and revoke immediately if it leaks</li>
            <li><strong>The demo credentials above</strong> are from a sandbox instance — use your own for production</li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Why XML-RPC?</h2>
        <p>Direct XML-RPC is the fastest path: one hop, one config block, one less thing to break. No MCP server to maintain, no n8n workflow to debug. For simple queries, demos, and prototyping, it's the right choice.</p>
        <p>If you need deterministic business processes with audit trails (invoice creation, order processing), the <a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/three-ways-integrate-odoo-hermes.html?utm_source=derez&utm_campaign=email">n8n pipeline approach</a> is better. But for 80% of what you'll ask your agent to do — "who are my customers?", "what's my pipeline?", "show me pending orders" — XML-RPC is all you need.</p>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <strong>Pro tip:</strong> The YouTube short at the top of this page shows the whole setup in under a minute. Bookmark it for when you need a quick refresher — the steps don't change between instances, only the credentials.

        </div>
        <h2>Introduction</h2>
        <p>
            n8n is the most widely used open-source workflow automation platform, and its official skill repository on GitHub (<a href="https://github.com/n8n-io/skills?utm_source=derez" target="_blank" rel="noopener">n8n-io/skills</a>) contains 13 expert skills covering the full workflow lifecycle — expressions, sub-workflows, error handling, AI agents, Data Tables, loops, and more. This speed run shows you how to load those skills into your Hermes Agent, connect it to your n8n instance, and have your agent build, validate, and manage automation workflows.
        </p>
        <p>
            No coding, no plugins to build — just clone the repo, point your agent at the skills, and paste your n8n instance credentials via the dashboard. To follow along, grab a <strong>free trial</strong> at <a href="https://derez.ai/#pricing?utm_source=derez">derez.ai</a> and make sure you have an n8n instance running (any plan, Cloud or self-hosted).
        </p>
        <p>
            We could have done it <strong>90 seconds faster</strong> — we initially hit the wrong API endpoint (<code>/api/v2</code>) and had to regroup. Once we switched to <code>/api/v1</code>, everything clicked. Still had <strong>1:36 left on the clock</strong> when the agent was live and pulling workflows.
        </p>
        <h2>Prerequisites</h2>
        <p>Before you start, make sure you have your n8n instance credentials ready:</p>
        <div class="prereq-group">
            <div class="group-label">Integration &mdash; n8n Workflow Automation</div>
            <ul>
                <li><strong>n8n URL</strong> &mdash; <code>https://n8n.your-instance.com/</code></li>
                <li><strong>n8n API Key</strong> &mdash; <code>n8n_api_2a3b4c5d6e7f8g9h0i1j</code></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <h2>Prompt</h2>
        <p>You configure two prompts on the agent's dashboard at <strong>app.derez.ai</strong>. The first connects your agent to the n8n API and loads the official skill set. The second asks for real work.</p>
        <div class="prompt-box">
            <strong>Prompt 1 &mdash; n8n Integration</strong><br /><br />
            Generated by the Derez Dashboard. The integration settings pass your n8n URL and API key to the agent so it can authenticate against the n8n REST API and MCP server.
        </div>
        <div class="prompt-box" style="margin-top:-8px">
            <strong>Prompt 2 &mdash; Hello World — Summarize focus.de</strong><br /><br />
            Create a hello world n8n workflow with two nodes: an RSS Feed Read node that reads <code>https://www.focus.de/</code> and an AI Agent node that summarizes the first article. Use the official n8n skills from n8n-io/skills — load n8n-workflow-lifecycle, n8n-agents, and n8n-node-configuration before you start building. Validate the workflow with validate_workflow, then check the connections object with get_workflow_details. Show me the final node configuration.
        </div>
        <p>The first prompt authenticates using the credentials you entered in the dashboard integration settings. The second prompt then has your agent build a simple hello world n8n workflow — read the latest headlines from focus.de and summarize them with an AI Agent node. Two nodes, one workflow, real output.</p>
        <h2>Wrap Up</h2>
        <p>
            In under 10 minutes you connected your Hermes Agent to n8n and loaded the 13 official n8n skills — giving your agent expert-level knowledge of workflow lifecycle, sub-workflow reuse, expression syntax, error handling, credential security, and AI agent patterns. Your agent now builds n8n workflows that follow the same standards the n8n team ships internally.
        </p>
        <p>
            The same approach works for any of the 13 skills: have your agent load <code>n8n-subworkflows</code> when you need reusable patterns, <code>n8n-agents</code> when building LangChain agents in n8n, or <code>n8n-debugging</code> when a workflow breaks. The skill repository is the authoritative reference — your agent reads the actual rules every time.
        </p>

        <div class="pro-tip">
            <strong>Pro tip:</strong> The n8n-io/skills repo is designed for any coding agent — not just n8n's own Claude Code plugin. Clone it to your Hermes Agent's filesystem and use <code>hermes skill import</code> from the skills directory to register them as local skills. Your agent then loads them automatically when you mention n8n, without needing to reference the GitHub URL each time.
        </div>
        <p>
            As a bonus, try this prompt after your agent is connected: <em>"Load the n8n-credentials-and-security skill and audit the credentials on my n8n instance — list every credential by name and type, check for any that are expired or use weak auth methods, and suggest improvements."</em> Your agent reads the official security skill and runs a full audit of your n8n credentials in seconds.

            <strong>### N8N Skills</strong><br />
            Create a skill that integrates with n8n's skill library and REST API.<br /><br />
            <strong>## Configuration</strong><br />
            <code>N8N_URL=https://n8n.derez.ai/</code><br />
            <code>N8N_API_KEY=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJhOTY0NDQ1Ni1hZGUxLTRlZjUtYmE0NC03MjRiZjhhY2JmNGUiLCJpc3MiOiJuOG4iLCJhdWQiOiJwdWJsaWMtYXBpIiwianRpIjoiZTExMTY3YjUtMGU1Yy00MTNhLWI0YzAtNGU5MGYyODFiMzk2IiwiaWF0IjoxNzgxNzcyNzE3LCJleHAiOjE3ODIzNTY0MDB9.g-SG9u7g9sD0lhD6fr6PZKcBs38Eq3p14Yf8yiPXO-U</code><br /><br />
            <strong>## Skill library</strong><br />
            You have access to n8n's official skill library at <code>https://github.com/n8n-io/skills</code><br /><br />
            At the start of every task, clone or pull the latest version of this repo to discover available skills.<br /><br />
            <code>if [ ! -d /tmp/n8n-skills ]; then<br />
            &nbsp;&nbsp;git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/n8n-io/skills /tmp/n8n-skills<br />
            else<br />
            &nbsp;&nbsp;cd /tmp/n8n-skills && git pull --ff-only<br />
            fi</code><br /><br />
            Read the README.md and INDEX.md files in that repo to understand what skills are available. Each skill has a dedicated directory with a README.md describing its purpose and usage. Choose the most relevant skill(s) for the user's request.<br /><br />
            <strong>## API basics</strong><br />
            All calls go to <code>{N8N_URL}/rest/...</code> with the header:<br />
            <code>X-N8N-API-KEY: {N8N_API_KEY}</code><br /><br />
            The n8n REST API documentation is available at <code>{N8N_URL}/api/v1/openapi.json</code> — fetch it if you need to discover available endpoints.<br /><br />
            <strong>### Common operations</strong><br /><br />
            <strong>List workflows:</strong><br />
            <code>curl -s -H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: {key}' '{N8N_URL}/rest/workflows'</code><br /><br />
            <strong>Get a workflow by ID:</strong><br />
            <code>curl -s -H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: {key}' '{N8N_URL}/rest/workflows/&lt;id&gt;'</code><br /><br />
            <strong>List executions:</strong><br />
            <code>curl -s -H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: {key}' '{N8N_URL}/rest/executions'</code><br /><br />
            <strong>List credentials:</strong><br />
            <code>curl -s -H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: {key}' '{N8N_URL}/rest/credentials'</code><br /><br />
            <strong>List tags:</strong><br />
            <code>curl -s -H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: {key}' '{N8N_URL}/rest/tags'</code><br /><br />
            <strong>## Workflow skill execution pattern</strong><br /><br />
            When a skill from the library maps to a workflow to run:<br /><br />
            1. Read the skill's README.md to understand the inputs, outputs, and workflow structure.<br />
            2. Check if a matching workflow already exists in n8n (use the list endpoint).<br />
            3. If it does, create an execution:<br /><br />
            <code>curl -s -X POST '{N8N_URL}/rest/workflows/&lt;id&gt;/run' \<br />
            &nbsp;&nbsp;-H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: {key}' \<br />
            &nbsp;&nbsp;-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \<br />
            &nbsp;&nbsp;-d '{"data": &lt;input_data&gt;}'</code><br /><br />
            4. If it doesn't, create a new workflow using the skill's specification:<br /><br />
            <code>curl -s -X POST '{N8N_URL}/rest/workflows' \<br />
            &nbsp;&nbsp;-H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: {key}' \<br />
            &nbsp;&nbsp;-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \<br />
            &nbsp;&nbsp;-d '{"name": "&lt;skill-name&gt;", "nodes": [...], "connections": {...}}'</code><br /><br />
            5. Poll execution status:<br /><br />
            <code>curl -s -H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: {key}' '{N8N_URL}/rest/executions/&lt;id&gt;' | jq '.data'</code><br /><br />
            <strong>## Solved cases log</strong><br />
            After every successful n8n task, append to ~/n8n_solutions.md:<br /><br />
            <code>## &lt;short title&gt;  (&lt;date&gt;)<br />
            Goal: &lt;one sentence&gt;<br />
            Skill used: &lt;skill path in the library&gt;<br />
            Key commands: &lt;the curl | jq pipelines that worked&gt;<br />
            Gotchas: &lt;anything non-obvious&gt;</code><br /><br />
            Read ~/n8n_solutions.md at task start — if a matching case exists, reuse it directly.

        <p>
            Earlier this week we showed you a <a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/speed-run-odoo-community-agent.html">speed run connecting Hermes Agent to Odoo via direct XML-RPC</a> —
            a dedicated Odoo user, direct API calls, no middle layer. That's the approach we recommend for production.
        </p>
        <p>
            But there's another way: <strong>the Model Context Protocol (MCP)</strong>. Instead of the agent talking directly
            to Odoo's API, an MCP server sits in between as a translation layer. The agent talks MCP, the MCP server talks
            XML-RPC to Odoo. It's an open standard from Anthropic, adopted by Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor, and now
            <strong>Hermes Agent</strong>.
        </p>
        <p>
            This guide walks through the MCP approach in 5 steps. Clone, configure, connect, done.
        </p>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <p><strong>Pro Tip:</strong> We covered the <a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/direct-odoo-api-vs-mcp.html">direct API vs MCP trade-offs in detail here</a>.
            TL;DR: Direct access wins on security, latency, and flexibility for single-ERP setups. MCP shines when your agent
            needs to talk to many different tools through one protocol. Pick the right tool for your use case.</p>
        </div>
        <h2>How It Works</h2>
        <p>
            The architecture is simple:
        </p>
        <pre><code>Hermes Agent → MCP Protocol → mcp-server-odoo → Odoo XML-RPC</code></pre>
        <p>
            The MCP server (<code>mcp-server-odoo</code> by <a href="https://github.com/ivnvxd/mcp-server-odoo?utm_source=derez">ivnvxd</a>, 300+ GitHub stars)
            exposes a set of tools — <code>search_records</code>, <code>create_record</code>, <code>read_record</code>,
            <code>count_records</code>, <code>inspect_model</code> — that your agent can call. It runs locally on your
            Hermes instance and communicates over HTTP (streamable-http transport).
        </p>
        <h2>Prerequisites</h2>
        <p>You'll need an Odoo instance with XML-RPC enabled and an API key. Grab a free trial from
        <a href="https://ODOO4projects.com?utm_source=derez" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ODOO4projects.com</a> if you don't have one.</p>
        <div class="prereq-group" style="margin-bottom:24px">
            <p style="font-weight:600;color:#f472b6;margin-bottom:4px">Integration — ODOO Community</p>
            <ul>
                <li><strong>URL</strong> — <code>https://006-003-1d9183bb-8430-41a8-85a3-842b2b4d279d.odoo4projects.com/</code></li>
                <li><strong>API Key</strong> — <code>602e6ea0a0adda65b344a282495da3b05525f63f</code></li>

                <li><strong>Hermes Agent</strong> — Any Hermes instance (derez.ai or self-hosted) running on Linux</li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <h2>Step 1 — Clone the MCP Server</h2>
        <p>
            The MCP server runs on your <strong>local machine</strong> — the same server where Hermes Agent is installed.
            It does <em>not</em> run on the Odoo server itself.
        </p>
        <pre><code>git clone https://github.com/ivnvxd/mcp-server-odoo.git
 cd mcp-server-odoo</code></pre>
        <p>
            The repo has 315 stars, 144 forks, and 198 commits as of this writing. It's actively maintained and supports
            Odoo 16.0+ with both standard (MCP module) and YOLO (direct XML-RPC) modes.
        </p>
        <h2>Step 2 — Install Dependencies</h2>
        <p>
            The recommended way to run it is via <code>uvx</code> (from the <code>uv</code> Python package manager).
            If you don't have uv installed:
        </p>
        <pre><code>curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh</code></pre>
        <p>
            That's it — <code>uvx mcp-server-odoo</code> handles the rest automatically.
        </p>
        <h2>Step 3 — Create the Startup Script</h2>
        <p>
            Create a bash script that sets the environment variables and launches the MCP server in
            <strong>YOLO read-only mode</strong> (no MCP module needed on the Odoo side):
        </p>
        <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/env bash
 # Odoo MCP configuration
 export ODOO_URL="https://006-003-1d9183bb-8430-41a8-85a3-842b2b4d279d.odoo4projects.com/"
 export ODOO_DB="006-003-1d9183bb-8430-41a8-85a3-842b2b4d279d"
 export ODOO_USER="changeme@odoo4projects.com"
 export ODOO_API_KEY="602e6ea0a0adda65b344a282495da3b05525f63f"
 export ODOO_READONLY=1
 export ODOO_MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http
 export ODOO_MCP_PORT=8000
 export ODOO_YOLO=read
 uvx mcp-server-odoo</code></pre>
        <p>
            Save this as <code>run-odoo-mcp.sh</code>, make it executable (<code>chmod +x run-odoo-mcp.sh</code>), and
            run it. The server starts on <code>http://localhost:8000/mcp</code>.
        </p>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <p><strong>Pro Tip:</strong> YOLO mode (<code>ODOO_YOLO=read</code>) bypasses the need for the Odoo MCP module.
            This is great for testing and quick prototyping. For production, install the
            <a href="https://apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/19.0/mcp_server?utm_source=derez" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Odoo MCP module</a>
            on your Odoo instance and set <code>ODOO_YOLO=off</code> for full security controls.</p>
        </div>
        <h2>Step 4 — Register the MCP Server with Hermes</h2>
        <p>
            With the MCP server running, tell Hermes Agent about it:
        </p>
        <pre><code>hermes mcp add odoo --url http://localhost:8000/mcp</code></pre>
        <p>
            This registers the MCP endpoint with Hermes. From now on, any Hermes session can discover the Odoo tools
            automatically. The <code>hermes mcp add</code> command takes a name (we used <code>odoo</code>) and the
            server's URL.
        </p>
        <p>
            To verify it worked:
        </p>
        <pre><code>hermes mcp list</code></pre>
        <p>
            You should see <code>odoo</code> listed with status <code>connected</code>.
        </p>
        <h2>Step 5 — Start Hermes and Use the Tools</h2>
        <p>
            Start a Hermes session and ask your agent to work with Odoo:
        </p>
        <pre><code>hermes run</code></pre>
        <p>
            Then in the chat, try something like:
        </p>
        <pre><code>Show me my 5 most recent leads from Odoo CRM.</code></pre>
        <p>
            The agent discovers the available MCP tools, calls <code>search_records</code> on the
            <code>crm.lead</code> model, and returns the results. Same goes for partners, products, invoices,
            sales orders — any model your Odoo user has access to.
        </p>

        <h2>Wrap Up</h2>
        <p>
            In 5 steps and about 5 minutes, you connected Hermes Agent to Odoo through the Model Context Protocol.
            Clone the repo, set the env vars, start the server, register with Hermes, and your agent can query
            CRM leads, partners, products, invoices — anything your Odoo user has access to.
        </p>
        <p>
            Which approach should you use?
        </p>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Direct API</strong> — if Hermes Agent is your only tool and Odoo is your only backend. Faster,
            no middle layer, full model access.</li>
            <li><strong>MCP</strong> — if you're building a multi-tool agent (Odoo + GitHub + Notion + Slack) and want
            one protocol to rule them all.</li>
        </ul>
        <p>
            Both work. Both connect your agent to live Odoo data. Both take under 10 minutes. The right choice
            depends on your architecture.
        </p>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <p><strong>Pro Tip:</strong> You can run both. Use MCP for the tools that benefit from a unified protocol
            (docs, chat, code repos) and direct API for Odoo. Hermes Agent supports mixed setups — MCP tools and
            direct integrations coexist in the same session. Pick the best connection for each backend.</p>

        </div>
        <h2>Introduction</h2>
        <p>
            Odoo is a fantastic ERP, but running your marketing website on it means paying for database servers, Odoo worker processes, cron jobs, security patches, and SSL renewal — every single month. Since customers find you through your homepage long before they hit your ERP, why not serve that homepage as pure static HTML from a git repository? Zero servers, zero databases, instant load times, and zero maintenance.
        </p>
        <p>
            This speed run walks you through having your Hermes Agent crawl your entire Odoo website, convert every page to clean static HTML (including the dynamic Odoo carousels, pricing tables, and contact forms), and push the whole thing to a git repo that serves it as a static site at a new domain. I used <code>new.odoo4projects.com</code> — a fresh git server pointing at the domain.
        </p>
        <p>
            To follow along, grab a <strong>free trial</strong> at <a href="https://derez.ai/#pricing?utm_source=derez">derez.ai</a> and make sure you have a git repository ready (GitHub, GitLab, or your own git server) that's connected to a domain.
        </p>
        <p>
            We hit the affiliate link initially instead of the main pricing page — the agent dutifully documented the affiliate program before I realized my mistake. Regrouped, clarified the target, and still finished with <strong>2:07 left on the clock</strong>. Could have been 90 seconds faster.
        </p>
        <h2>Prerequisites</h2>
        <p>Before you start, make sure you have your git repository credentials ready:</p>
        <div class="prereq-group">
            <div class="group-label">Integration &mdash; Git Repository (Static Site)</div>
            <ul>
                <li><strong>Git Repo URL</strong> &mdash; <code>git@git.odoo4projects.com:websites/new-odoo4projects.git</code></li>
                <li><strong>Target Domain</strong> &mdash; <code>new.odoo4projects.com</code></li>
                <li><strong>Source Website</strong> &mdash; <code>https://ODOO4projects.com</code></li>
                <li><strong>Git Branch</strong> &mdash; <code>main</code></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <h2>Prompt</h2>
        <p>You configure two prompts on the agent's dashboard at <strong>app.derez.ai</strong>. The first sets up the git repository integration. The second converts and deploys the website.</p>
        <div class="prompt-box">
            <strong>Prompt 1 &mdash; Git Repository Integration</strong><br /><br />
            Generated by the Derez Dashboard. The integration settings pass your git repo URL and SSH key / deploy token to the agent so it can authenticate, clone, commit, and push to the repo.
        </div>
        <div class="prompt-box" style="margin-top:-8px">
            <strong>Prompt 2 &mdash; Convert Odoo Website to Static Site and Deploy</strong><br /><br />
            Use the git repo <code>git@git.odoo4projects.com:websites/new-odoo4projects.git</code> (branch: <code>main</code>) for the target website <strong>new.odoo4projects.com</strong>.<br /><br />
            Convert the website <code>https://ODOO4projects.com</code> to a static website with all content — every page, all carousel slides, the pricing section, navigation tabs, the FAQ tab panel, the affiliate section, the contact form, and the footer with all links (Support, Legal, Contact, Workshops, Affiliates, OD8N). Replace the Odoo backend contact form with a static <code>mailto:</code> link and a simple static contact section. Preserve all brand colors, fonts, and styling. Remove all Odoo login/powered-by-Odoo footers. Add a <code>CNAME</code> file pointing to <code>new.odoo4projects.com</code>. Push everything to the git repo and verify the site is accessible.
        </div>
        <p>The first prompt authenticates using the credentials you entered in the dashboard integration settings. The second prompt then has your agent crawl the live Odoo site, extract every page and dynamic section, render the full static HTML, replace backend-reliant components (contact form, Odoo carousel controls) with static equivalents, and push the result to the git repository — all autonomously.</p>
        <h2>Wrap Up</h2>
        <p>
            In under 10 minutes your Hermes Agent crawled an entire Odoo-powered marketing website — homepage with four carousel slides, four pricing tiers with feature lists, five navigation tab panels (process innovation, competitive advantages, grow with us, affiliates, FAQ), a contact form section, and a full footer with eight links and social media — converted every dynamic element to clean static HTML, and pushed the whole thing to a git repository at <code>new.odoo4projects.com</code>.
        </p>
        <p>
            No more Odoo worker processes for your marketing site. No database connection pool consuming RAM. No security patches for a public-facing Odoo instance that's only running a brochure site. Your homepage loads in milliseconds from a CDN, you can edit it by pushing to git, and your Odoo instance runs leaner because it's only doing what it's best at — ERP.
        </p>
        <p>
            The same approach works for any Odoo website: e-commerce product pages, blog sections, landing pages, even the Odoo shop pages can be snapshotted as static HTML and served from a git repo. Your ERP stays private, your public site stays fast.
        </p>

            <img src="speed-run-odoo-static-countdown.jpg" alt="derez.ai dashboard showing speed-run timer at 2 minutes 07 seconds remaining — Odoo website converted and pushed to git with time to spare" style="max-width:100%;border-radius:14px;border:1px solid #1a1a24;box-shadow:0 4px 24px rgba(0,0,0,0.4)" />
            <p style="font-size:0.82rem;color:#888;margin-top:8px">We hit the affiliate page first instead of the main site, regrouped after the first crawl, and still had 2:07 left.</p>
        </div>
        <div class="pro-tip">
            <strong>Pro tip:</strong> Run this speed run as a recurring cron job — have your agent crawl your Odoo website nightly and push any changes to the static repo. Your content editors keep working in Odoo's backend, and your public site auto-updates every morning. No build pipeline, no CI/CD, no webhooks. Just <code>hermes cron create</code> with a daily schedule.
        </div>
        <p>
            As a bonus, try this prompt after your static site is live: <em>"Audit the static site at new.odoo4projects.com — check all internal links resolve, all images have alt text, all external links open in new tabs, and add a newsletter signup form that POSTs to the n8n webhook at https://n8n.derez.ai/webhook/newsletter."</em> Your agent maintains your static site like a webmaster.

            Odoo is the most popular open-source ERP — CRM, sales, inventory, accounting, all in one system.
            Hermes Agent is an open-source AI agent framework. Put them together and your agent can query customer records,
            check inventory levels, create leads, generate invoices, and pull sales reports — all through natural language.
        </p>
        <p>
            There are <strong>three proven ways</strong> to connect the two. Each offers a different balance of speed,
            determinism, and architectural flexibility.

            </div>
            <p>The simplest approach. You create a dedicated Odoo user with restricted permissions, paste the connection details into Hermes, and your agent calls the Odoo XML-RPC API directly. Hermes has built-in Odoo tool support — once configured, the agent can search, read, create, and update records on any Odoo model. This is the classic <strong><a href="https://derez.ai/odoo-hermes">Odoo Hermes</a></strong> setup.</p>
            <h4>Setup</h4>
            <ol>
                <li>Generate an Odoo API key (Settings → Users → Technical)</li>
                <li>Add the connection to Hermes' <code>config.yaml</code></li>
                <li>Start Hermes — Odoo tools are available automatically</li>
            </ol>
            <pre><code># Hermes /.hermes/.env snippet
 ODOO_URL=https://005-003-1bf12542-4710-45c2-9f8b-3a27d25031b7.odoo4projects.com/

 ODOO_APIKEY=198db28b752ccb4a66c646503902169e8b3a5b42
 	    </code></pre>
 Prompt:
 	    <pre><code>
 Connect to the odoo 19 database with the credentials given in 
 $ODOO_URL $ODOO_USER $ODOO_APIKEY
 open <url>/doc and read the available models and methods. 
 Use the JSON api to connect and do not login to the web UI.
 create a skill to access ODOO
 return all data found in the crm database
 </code></pre>
 This aproach is awesome since we give hermes the whole JSON 2 API to study. In the video you see, that the skill learned every modell with every method. 
            <p><strong>When to use:</strong> Quick queries, one-off lookups, demos, and prototyping. The LLM decides which API calls to make, so it's fast but the agent may chain calls in unexpected ways.</p>

            <p>The <a href="https://github.com/ivnvxd/mcp-server-odoo">mcp-server-odoo</a> project (315+ GitHub stars) exposes Odoo as a Model Context Protocol server. You run it as a CLI process, register it with Hermes via <code>hermes mcp add</code>, and the agent discovers Odoo tools automatically — <code>search_records</code>, <code>create_record</code>, <code>read_record</code>, and more.</p>
            <h4>Setup</h4>
            <ol>
                <li>Clone the server: <code>git clone https://github.com/ivnvxd/mcp-server-odoo.git</code></li>
                <li>Set environment variables (URL, db, user, API key)</li>
                <li>Start: <code>uvx mcp-server-odoo</code></li>
                <li>Register: <code>hermes mcp add odoo --url http://localhost:8000/mcp</code></li>
                <li>Start Hermes — tools appear automatically</li>
            </ol>
            <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/env bash
 export ODOO_URL="https://your-instance.odoo4projects.com"

            <p><strong>When to use:</strong> You want a standardized MCP protocol for all tool connections. If Hermes already talks to GitHub, Slack, or Notion via MCP, Odoo fits right into the same stack.</p>

            </div>
            <p>This is the most powerful approach — and the personal favorite of the derez.ai founder. Instead of the agent calling Odoo directly, Hermes delegates Odoo operations to <strong>n8n workflows</strong> that execute deterministic, step-by-step business logic.</p>
            <p><strong>Why this matters:</strong> An LLM calling the Odoo API directly might chain calls in unexpected ways. It could create an invoice without checking if the customer exists, or skip a product validation step. With n8n as the middle layer, every business process is a <strong>deterministic workflow</strong> — the same inputs always produce the same outputs, in the same order.</p>
            <p>Here's how it works:</p>
            <ol>
                <li>Hermes Agent connects to n8n (via the <a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/speed-run-n8n-skill.html">official n8n skill</a>)</li>
                <li>n8n hosts pre-built Odoo workflows — each one a complete business process</li>
                <li>Hermes calls an n8n webhook, which triggers the workflow</li>
                <li>The workflow executes deterministic steps against the Odoo API</li>
                <li>n8n returns the result to Hermes</li>
            </ol>
            <h4>Example: Create an Invoice</h4>
            <p>A typical n8n workflow for invoice creation might look like this:</p>
            <pre><code>Step 1: Receive webhook from Hermes (customer name, product SKU)
 Step 2: Search Odoo for the customer by name
 Step 3: If customer not found → return error to Hermes
 Step 4: Search Odoo for the product by SKU
 Step 5: If product not found → return error to Hermes
 Step 6: Create invoice header with customer ID
 Step 7: Add invoice line with product ID, quantity, price
 Step 8: Confirm invoice creation
 Step 9: Return invoice number and status to Hermes</code></pre>
            <p>Every step is deterministic — the workflow always checks for the customer first, then the product, then creates the invoice. No LLM hallucination in the middle of a billing process.</p>
            <h4>Setup</h4>
            <ol>
                <li><strong>Install the n8n skill in Hermes</strong> — loads the n8n toolset: <code>hermes skills install n8n</code></li>
                <li><strong>Build n8n workflows</strong> — create webhook-triggered workflows for each Odoo operation (create invoice, update lead, check inventory, generate report)</li>
                <li><strong>Configure webhooks</strong> — each workflow exposes a unique webhook URL that Hermes can call</li>
                <li><strong>Start Hermes</strong> — tell your agent "create an invoice for [customer] with [product]" and it delegates to n8n</li>
            </ol>
            <div class="pro-tip">
                <p><strong>Pro Tip:</strong> This is the derez.ai founder's recommended approach for production. The n8n layer gives you audit trails, error handling, retries, and human-in-the-loop approval for critical operations — none of which an LLM calling the API directly can guarantee.</p>

        <h2>Decision Guide</h2>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Quick lookup or demo?</strong> → <strong>Direct API</strong>. Configure once, ask anything.</li>
            <li><strong>Multi-tool agent on MCP?</strong> → <strong>Odoo MCP CLI</strong>. One protocol for everything.</li>
            <li><strong>Production business process?</strong> → <strong>Hermes → n8n → Odoo</strong>. Deterministic workflows for invoices, orders, and data entry where every step must be predictable.</li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Security Best Practices</h2>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Create a dedicated Odoo user</strong> for the agent — never use an admin account</li>
            <li><strong>Use read-only access</strong> unless the agent needs to create or modify records</li>
            <li><strong>Restrict model access</strong> to only the Odoo models the agent needs</li>
            <li><strong>For n8n, use Odoo node credentials</strong> with the most restrictive user possible</li>
            <li><strong>Rotate API keys</strong> periodically and revoke them immediately if they leak</li>
        </ul>

 YOUTUBE UPLOAD PACKAGE — n8n Speed Run
 Video: Connect Hermes Agent to n8n in 10 Minutes
 Blog: https://derez.ai/blog/posts/speed-run-n8n-skill.html
 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
 CHOSEN TITLE
 ────────────
 Speed Run: Connect Hermes Agent to n8n in 10 Minutes (Under 10 Min)
 Alternatives:
 2. From Zero to n8n + AI Agent in 10 Minutes (No Code)
 3. I Connected an AI Agent to n8n in 10 Minutes — Here's How
 4. n8n Speed Run: AI Agent + Workflow Automation in Under 10 Min
 ────────────
 DESCRIPTION
 ────────────
 From signup to an n8n-connected AI agent in under 10 minutes. No coding, no plugins — just clone the official n8n skill repo, paste your credentials, and your agent starts building automation workflows.
 We could have done it 90 seconds faster — we hit the wrong API endpoint (/api/v2) first and had to regroup. Once we switched to /api/v1, everything clicked. Still had 1:36 left on the clock.
 In this speed run I walk through:
 - Getting a free derez.ai trial
 - Cloning the official n8n skills from github.com/n8n-io/skills
 - Setting up the agent on the derez.ai dashboard
 - Connecting to your n8n instance via the REST API
 - Building a hello world workflow: read focus.de headlines with RSS → summarize with an AI Agent
 - Running a security audit on your n8n credentials (bonus)

 - Deploy your agent → https://derez.ai/#pricing

 # Daily Brief — derez.ai
 ## Sunday, June 28, 2026 | 09:00 PYST
 ### Changes Since Yesterday (Sat Jun 27 → Sun Jun 28)
 1. **Traffic**: 223 unique visitors (+23), 691 pageviews (+31). Latest day (Jun 27): 20 visitors, +11% DoD. Google now sending 10 visitors (was 6).
 2. **CRM processed +77 more contacts**: 243 contacted (was 166), 159 bounced (was 116). 2 replies, 2 Warm unchanged. No new conversions.
 3. **Data discrepancy FIXED**: Script now uses `agents_sold` (Stripe, 6 seats) instead of CRM `Won` stage (0) for `operations.js` goals[1]. Dashboard synced to share dir.
 4. **No code changes** — last commit Jun 25 (Gumpel cleanup). 16 blog posts live.
 ### Blockers Still Open
 - ❌ NEED n1: Business emails for top 20 YT creators
 - ❌ NEED n3: Product demo video (3 min)
 - ❌ NEED n4: Social media account access (X + LinkedIn)
 - ❌ Telegram group for F&F — still in "setting up next" status
 - ❌ Search Console access — still blocking directory submissions
 - ❌ F&F checkout flow untested end-to-end (needs human with credit card)
 ### F&F Launch Tomorrow (Monday) — Prep Status
 - ✅ Coupons ready: friends950, creator950, friends499, friends1750
 - ✅ Onboarding guide drafted in docs/friends-family-onboarding.md
 - ✅ Dashboard pipeline fixed — Stripe data now reflected in goals
 - ❌ Telegram group — needs Oliver to create and add invite link
 - ❌ Monday onboarding message — drafted below (ready to send)
 ### F&F Launch — Suggested Monday Message for Oliver
 **Email / Message to F&F list:**
 > Hey {Name},
 >
 > Remember I mentioned I was building an AI agent platform? It's finally ready for battle-testing — and I'd love for you to be among the first to try it.
 >
 > **derez.ai** — deploy your own AI agent in ~10 minutes. No SSH, no DevOps. Pick a template (customer support, web research, Odoo CRM, cold email outreach, ChatGPT clone), and you get a live agent on your own subdomain with a web UI and API.
 >
 > Here's your invite:
 > 1. Go to https://derez.ai/add.html
 > 2. Pick any agent template
 > 3. Enter coupon **friends950** at checkout — your first month is free, unlimited usage
 > 4. Your agent will be ready in ~10 minutes
 >
 > The coupons don't expire and cover full access — your only job is to break things and tell me what sucks.
 >
 > Questions? Reply here or drop in the Telegram group: [LINK TBD — Oliver to create]
 >
 > Cheers,
 > Oliver

            <h2>What Is Odoo Hermes?</h2>
            <p>
                <strong>Odoo Hermes</strong> is the integration between <strong>Odoo ERP</strong> and
                <strong>Hermes AI Agent</strong>. It gives your AI agent direct access to your
                Odoo database — CRM contacts, sales orders, inventory levels, invoices, and more —
                all through natural language prompts.
            </p>
            <p>
                Instead of clicking through Odoo's module menus to find a customer or generate a
                report, you just ask your agent. "Show me all leads from last week." "What's the
                total value of open quotes?" "Create a new invoice for ACME Corp." Your agent
                handles the API calls and returns the answer.
            </p>
            <p>
                There are <strong>three ways</strong> to set up the connection, each with different
                trade-offs. The <a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/three-ways-integrate-odoo-hermes.html?utm_source=derez&utm_campaign=email">full comparison article</a>

            <h2>Why Use Odoo Hermes?</h2>
            <h3>One Interface, All Modules</h3>
            <p>
                Odoo has CRM, Sales, Inventory, Accounting, Manufacturing, and 30+ other modules.
                Each has its own UI, filters, and reports. Odoo Hermes collapses them all into a
                single text interface. Ask once, get answers from any module.
            </p>
            <h3>Automate Repetitive Tasks</h3>
            <p>
                Instead of logging into Odoo every morning to check new leads, update stages, and
                generate reports, your agent does it on a schedule. Set up a <strong>cron job</strong>
                that runs "Pull all new leads from last 24 hours, categorize them by industry, and
                save the result to my dashboard" — and it happens automatically at 08:00 every day.
            </p>
            <h3>Combine Odoo with Other Tools</h3>
            <p>
                Hermes Agent isn't limited to Odoo. It also browses the web, sends emails, reads
                files, and runs code. Your agent can research a prospect on LinkedIn,
                check their CRM record in Odoo, draft a personalized email, and send it — all in
                one session.
            </p>
            <h3>No Code Required</h3>
            <p>
                You don't need to write Python scripts, build API integrations, or maintain
                middleware. Configure once in <code>config.yaml</code> and your agent is ready.
                The entire setup takes about 10 minutes.
            </p>
            <hr class="divider" />
            <h2 id="setup">Step-by-Step Setup (XML-RPC Direct)</h2>
            <p>
                This is the fastest path — one config block and your agent talks to Odoo directly.
                For the MCP or n8n approaches, see the <a href="https://derez.ai/blog/posts/three-ways-integrate-odoo-hermes.html?utm_source=derez&utm_campaign=email">full comparison guide</a>.
            </p>
            <h3>Prerequisites</h3>
            <p>Have these ready before you start:</p>
            <ul>
                <li>Your Odoo instance URL (e.g. <code>https://your-instance.odoo4projects.com</code>)</li>
                <li>Odoo username and password (create a dedicated agent user — never use admin)</li>
                <li>Hermes Agent installed and running</li>
            </ul>
            <h3>Step 1 — Generate an API Key</h3>
            <p>
                In Odoo, go to <strong>Settings → Users → select your agent user → Technical</strong>.
                Scroll to <strong>Security</strong> and click <strong>Generate API Key</strong>.
                Name it <code>hermes-agent</code> and copy the key immediately — Odoo only shows it once.
            </p>
            <h3>Step 2 — Configure Hermes</h3>
            <p>Add this block to your <code>~/.hermes/config.yaml</code>:</p>
            <pre><code>odoo:
  url: "https://your-instance.odoo4projects.com"
  db: "your-database"
  user: "agent@company.com"
  api_key: "your-api-key"
  readonly: true</code></pre>
            <p>
                Set <code>readonly: true</code> for first setup. Remove it once you're confident
                and need the agent to create or update records.
            </p>
            <h3>Step 3 — Give Your Agent the Prompt</h3>
            <p>Start Hermes and paste this prompt:</p>
            <pre><code>Connect to the ODOO 19 database with the credentials $ODOO_URL $ODOO_USER $ODOO_APIKEY</code></pre>
            <h3>Step 4 — Verify</h3>
            <p>Ask your agent a simple question to confirm the connection works:</p>
            <pre><code>Give me a list of customers with their email addresses.</code></pre>
            <p>If everything is configured correctly, the agent returns live data from your Odoo instance:</p>
            <pre><code>1. Azure Interior — azure.interior@example.com
 2. Deco Addict — deco.addict@example.com
 3. Gem Furniture — gem.furniture@example.com
 4. Lumber Inc — lumber.inc@example.com
 Total: 8 customers in CRM</code></pre>
            <p>That's it. Three minutes, one config block, and your agent talks to Odoo.</p>
            <h3>What to Try Next</h3>
            <ul>
                <li><strong>"Show me all leads in the CRM"</strong> — pulls from <code>crm.lead</code></li>
                <li><strong>"List my recent sales orders"</strong> — queries <code>sale.order</code></li>
                <li><strong>"What products are low on stock?"</strong> — checks <code>stock.quant</code></li>
                <li><strong>"What's the total value of open quotes?"</strong> — sums draft sale orders</li>
            </ul>
            <hr class="divider" />

            <h2 id="faq">Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
            <div class="faq-item">
                <h3>What is Odoo Hermes?</h3>
                <p>Odoo Hermes is the integration between Odoo ERP and Hermes AI Agent. It allows your AI agent to read, write, and automate data across Odoo modules — CRM, Sales, Inventory, Accounting — through natural language prompts instead of clicking through the Odoo UI.</p>
            </div>
            <div class="faq-item">
                <h3>How do I connect Odoo to Hermes Agent?</h3>
                <p>There are three ways: <strong>XML-RPC direct</strong> — configure Odoo credentials in Hermes config.yaml and the agent calls the API directly. <strong>Odoo MCP CLI</strong> — run mcp-server-odoo and register with Hermes. <strong>n8n pipeline</strong> — delegate Odoo operations to deterministic n8n workflows. The right choice depends on whether you need speed (XML-RPC), standardization (MCP), or determinism (n8n).</p>
            </div>
            <div class="faq-item">
                <h3>Is Odoo Hermes free?</h3>
                <p>Hermes Agent is open-source and free. Odoo Community Edition is also free with no per-user fees. You only pay for hosting — derez.ai offers managed agents starting at $9.50/month. Use coupon code <strong>blog950</strong> for your first month free.</p>
            </div>
            <div class="faq-item">
                <h3>Which integration method is best for production?</h3>
                <p>The <strong>n8n pipeline</strong> is the most production-ready. Every Odoo operation runs through a deterministic workflow — check customer exists, then check product, then create invoice. This prevents the LLM from chaining API calls in unexpected ways. Use XML-RPC for quick queries and demos, n8n for business-critical operations like invoicing and order management.</p>
            </div>
            <div class="faq-item">
                <h3>Can Odoo Hermes write to my database?</h3>
                <p>Yes, but you control it. Set <code>readonly: true</code> in the config for read-only access. Remove it to allow create/update operations. Always create a dedicated Odoo user for the agent with restricted model access — never use an admin account.</p>
            </div>
            <div class="faq-item">
                <h3>What Odoo versions does Odoo Hermes support?</h3>
                <p>The XML-RPC and JSON-RPC APIs work with Odoo 15 through 19, including Odoo Community Edition and Odoo Enterprise. The MCP server supports Odoo 17+. The n8n approach works with any version that exposes a webhook-compatible API.</p>
            </div>
            <div class="faq-item">
                <h3>Can I schedule Odoo Hermes to run automatically?</h3>
                <p>Yes. Hermes Agent has built-in cron job support. You can schedule prompts like "Check for new leads every hour and alert me if there are more than 5" or "Generate a weekly sales report every Monday at 09:00." The agent runs autonomously and sends you the results.</p>
