Add an agent to the family chat for meals

A father on Hacker News runs Hermes Agent on an old MacBook Air, added to the group chat with his wife. It plans meals, shops for groceries online, updates the kids' chore chart on a digital photo frame each morning, adds calendar events and reads credit card balances for the budget. Both of them also give it tasks directly. The chat fits because everyone already uses it, but he gives no numbers for time saved.

How to do it

  1. Paste the prompt into the tool, and replace the text in brackets with your own.
  2. Read the answer through. Do not send, delete or publish anything until you have seen it yourself.
  3. Check the original before you trust a figure, a name or a date.

Try it with Hermes

You are in our family group chat. Every Sunday, suggest dinners for the week and build a shopping list from them. When one of us writes an item in the chat, add it to the list. Show me the meal plan and the shopping list before anything is ordered or paid for. Do not share anything from the chat with others. You are done when we have approved the meal plan and the list is ready to order.
