Then tell Hermes Agent what you need

Hermes Agent picks the PostAxis tools it needs. Scheduled posts go out on time whether or not the chat is still open.

Try asking

  • Which accounts can you post to?
  • What goes out this week?
  • Keep that one as a draft

Schedule a daily product tip on Threads at 12:00 for the next two weeks.

Scheduled 14 Threads posts, one per day at 12:00, starting tomorrow. Each one is under 500 characters.

What can Hermes Agent do with PostAxis?

Everything PostAxis does in the dashboard that makes sense to do by asking: writing, scheduling, editing, publishing and checking your queue.

Sentences in, posts out

Describe the post in your own words. Hermes Agent turns it into posts and PostAxis handles the scheduling.

Every network you run

Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, LinkedIn, Facebook, Threads and Telegram, from a single message.

Checked before it’s saved

Caption length, media count, video length and format are checked for every network before anything is saved.

Weeks ahead in one go

Ask for a week or a month. Hermes Agent can dry-run up to 50 posts at once, show you the plan, then schedule it.

Your images and video

Attach images and videos from a link, or get a one-time upload link for files on your computer.

Your accounts, your call

Hermes Agent signs in as you and can only reach accounts connected in your workspace. Cut it off from Settings whenever you like.

What is Hermes Agent?

Hermes Agent is an open-source autonomous agent that can use any MCP server. You give it tools and goals and it works through tasks step by step.

With PostAxis, those tasks can include planning, writing and scheduling social posts across 8 networks.

What can you ask Hermes Agent to post?

Brief it like a person: what it’s about, where it goes, when. Four requests that work well with Hermes Agent:

  1. Long task

    Fill a 30-day calendar

    Plan 30 days of posts for X, LinkedIn and Threads, validate them all, show me the calendar and schedule after I approve.

    To Hermes Agent
  2. Research

    Research, then post

    Find three news stories in our industry from this week and schedule a LinkedIn post with our take on each, Tuesday to Thursday at 9:00.

    To Hermes Agent
  3. Report

    Review the week

    Tell me which posts published this week and which failed, and reschedule the failed ones for tomorrow.

    To Hermes Agent
  4. Photo

    Put a photo out tonight

    Here’s the link to today’s product shot. Instagram and Threads at 18:00, a two-line caption, no more than three hashtags.

    To Hermes Agent

How does Hermes Agent talk to PostAxis?

Through MCP, the Model Context Protocol: an open standard for giving AI apps tools. PostAxis runs an MCP server; Hermes Agent connects to it and gets 11 tools that work on your account, nothing more. Full MCP reference

From your message to a scheduled post

What happens between you hitting enter and the post showing up in your calendar.

  • You write one message: what, where, when
  • Hermes Agent looks up your accounts and the limits of each network you named
  • It drafts a version per network and sends them to PostAxis
  • PostAxis checks every version and saves it as scheduled, a draft or live
  • The post sits in your calendar, editable until it goes out

Can Hermes Agent schedule 30 days of posts at once?

Yes. Hermes Agent can send up to 50 posts in one bulk call. Ask it to validate first: PostAxis checks every post and saves nothing, so you can review the plan before it is scheduled.

Plan 30 days of posts for X and LinkedIn about our product, validate them, show me the calendar, then schedule.

Done. Here’s what I did:

  • Validated 30 posts, each going to X and LinkedIn, 0 problems
  • Showed the calendar and waited for approval
  • Scheduled all 30 for 10:00 each day

Example conversation

Can Hermes Agent post images and videos?

Yes, media you already have. Hermes Agent can pass PostAxis a public link to an image or video, or ask PostAxis for a one-time upload link for a file on your computer. PostAxis checks size, format and count for each network.

How does Hermes Agent sign in to PostAxis?

Hermes Agent signs in to PostAxis, never to your social networks. Your Instagram, X or LinkedIn accounts stay connected to PostAxis, and you can revoke Hermes Agent’s access at any time.

Every plan✓ Used by Hermes Agent

OAuth sign-in

  1. Hermes Agent opens the PostAxis sign-in in your browser
  2. You log in and click Approve
  3. It gets access to your account only, until you revoke it

Best for apps you use yourself: ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Codex and most others

API add-on

API key

  1. Create a key under Settings → API keys
  2. Send it as Authorization: Bearer KEY, or in the URL for clients that only take a URL
  3. Revoke the key any time and access stops at once

Best for servers and automations with no browser: n8n, Grok, Manus, headless agents

If something doesn’t work

The most common problems when connecting Hermes Agent, and how to fix them.

The agent says no accounts are connected

Connect at least one social account under Accounts in PostAxis. If you use several workspaces, tell the agent which one, for example “use my Acme workspace”.

401 Unauthorized or “sign in again”

The sign-in expired or was revoked. Reconnect from your agent (it opens the PostAxis sign-in again). With an API key, check the key is still active under Settings → API keys.

A post was rejected before saving

PostAxis checks each network’s rules first: caption length, media count, video length and format. The error says what to change; ask the agent to fix it and try again.

Posts are scheduled at the wrong time

Say the timezone in your request, for example “9:00 Europe/Berlin”. Without one, the agent uses the timezone it was told or UTC.

I want to stop an agent from posting

Open Settings → API keys in PostAxis. Revoke the agent under Connected agents, or revoke its API key. It loses access immediately.

Hermes Agent and PostAxis: questions

Does the same config work in other agents?

Yes. Any MCP client that supports remote Streamable HTTP servers can use the same block.

What is the PostAxis MCP server?

It’s a remote Model Context Protocol server at https://postaxis.io/api/mcp that gives AI agents 11 tools to list your accounts, upload media and create, schedule, edit and delete posts in PostAxis.

Which social networks are supported?

Instagram (posts, Reels, carousels), TikTok (videos and photo posts), YouTube Shorts, X, LinkedIn, Facebook Pages, Threads and Telegram channels.

How much does it cost?

MCP access with OAuth is included in every PostAxis plan, and every plan starts with a 7-day free trial. API keys need the API add-on.

What stops an agent from posting something wrong?

PostAxis checks every post against each network’s rules before saving, the agent can preview bulk plans without saving them, everything shows up in your calendar, and you can revoke an agent at any time in Settings → API keys.
