Deciding whether a status change is really somebody starting takes a small amount of judgement: a contractor conversion, a rehire, a corrected record from last year. That gate is the one reasoning call in the run, and Hermes handles it on the open models it is built from. Everything downstream is mechanical, since your checklist already says what to create and when.
Run a staged conversation — no account needed. The agent handles it for real while a simulated world answers its tool calls; nothing touches real accounts, and nothing is actually sent.
New hire: Sofia Ramirez

Onboarding checklist
What has to happen before and during a new hire's first week - each task, who owns it, and when it is due counted from the start date (laptop ordered five working days before, payroll enrolled by day one, manager one to one booked in week one), plus the Asana project all of it belongs in.

Watch it handle a test run
A staged conversation against a simulated world — then it’s live.
A hire date, a job title, and a status that means starting, confirmed against the record rather than the event alone. Everything after it depends on getting that one call right.
The fields it may read are a short fixed list and nothing is written back to BambooHR. That is a narrow surface to hand any model, open or otherwise.
The Contractor Not Employee rehearsal is the closest case: an Active Contractor status with a start date, no work email and no payroll enrolment. Whether that should produce your onboarding checklist is a decision for your checklist wording, and the rehearsal shows you what the model decided before a real contractor triggers it.
Free to start. Guided setup, a test run against staged conversations, and it's live.
