Before you begin

Gather the information the Bots need

Learning goal and deadline
Current knowledge and available time
Official curriculum and approved materials

Run the first version one step at a time

Send one clear message to each Bot

Start in individual Bot chats. After you approve a result, paste it into the next Bot’s chat with the message shown below. This gives you a clear handoff and keeps the order predictable.

Overall request

Build a one-week study plan from the official curriculum and my available time. Include learning goals, readings, practice questions, and one progress check.

Use this as the project brief. The step messages above tell each Bot which part to complete.

First test

Set it up in Hermes Desktop

Begin with individual chats, then add a group when the handoffs work

Open each linked starter page and follow its manual Hermes Desktop setup steps.
Run each step in that Bot’s own chat and review the result.
Pass the approved result to the next Bot with the provided step message.
After the sequence works, create an optional group with the same Bots.
In a group, @mention the Bot you want. Membership order does not control who responds.
