A US attorney shares his personal Hermes agent setup with Notion and cron jobs

The writer is a US-based attorney with 16 years of experience who, together with his wife, owns a brick-and-mortar business with several locations in a low-profit, high-regulation industry. Drawing on that business ownership experience, he has spent the last few years growing a side project offering part-time general counsel services to other businesses in the same industry. He describes himself as non-technical and unable to code, but comfortable learning and experimenting with guidance.

When he opened his business 14 years ago, he learned enough on his own to avoid hiring an agency for web-related work, including WordPress, domain and email marketing setup, DNS management, SEO, and basic automations and integrations with tools like web forms and Google Sheets. The post is framed as an introduction before he shares his actual Hermes agent setup, which involves a Notion-based knowledge base, scheduled cron jobs, and various use cases, written as a way of giving back to a subreddit he says he has learned a lot from.
