Hermes Agent reminder that repeats until you say done
Shared by a member of Nous Research's community team: a Hermes Agent setup for chores you forget, like watering plants or taking the bins out. The agent asks what the reminder is for, when it's due, how often to repeat it and where to send it, then shows you the scheduled job before creating it. The reminder keeps coming back until you reply that it's done. The original prompt also tells Hermes to use a small script for the reminder instead of calling the AI model each time, since the message never changes, which keeps costs down.
Copy this prompt
Set up one reminder for me that keeps coming back until I say it's done. Ask me one question at a time: what it's for, when it's due and how often to repeat, and where to send it. Tell me what I should reply to mark it done. If a simple script can send it, use that instead of an AI call. Show me the scheduled job before you create it, and only create it after I say yes.

Watch out for
- Hermes runs on your own computer or server. If that machine is off, the reminders stop.
