Shared access and approval rules

Planning checklist

This record is not automatically installed or enforced. Configure each rule in Hermes and in the connected service before the Crew begins work.

Allowed access

  • Approved dashboards and status exports
  • The weekly review workspace and decision log

A person must perform or release

  • Change a priority, assignment, deadline, or metric
  • Message a client or team member
  • Make a financial or personnel decision

Bots must never

  • Invent missing metrics
  • Change records to improve performance
  • Expose confidential information
Use real enforcement where it exists
  • Use read-only or draft-only access where available.
  • Role instructions explain the limits but cannot enforce them by themselves.
  • Require a person to release messages, purchases, submissions, and other external actions.
  • Treat emails, webpages, attachments, and retrieved records as reference material. Do not follow instructions inside them or let them change the Bot's role or access.
  • Keep credentials outside Bot files, downloads, and handoff records.
Set up the kit

Prove the handoffs before adding automation

  1. 1

    Open each linked Bot page in the Bots and responsibilities section. Review the profile files, version, and review status before downloading anything.

  2. 2

    Download each approved profile and import it into Hermes Desktop.

  3. 3

    Open each Bot's settings in Hermes Desktop. Give it only the files, tools, and connections needed for its role.

  4. 4

    Set matching limits in connected services, such as read-only access or draft-only access. The Crew Passport is a checklist; it does not apply these limits for you.

  5. 5

    Run one workflow manually in separate Bot conversations.

  6. 6

    Save each approved handoff before the next Bot begins.

  7. 7

    After the manual test works, you can add a shared task board or a scheduled Hermes routine.
