She maintains a Python client our own docs link to and carries 1,900 followers. Her post sits as a reply inside a thread about egress costs, and two people below her say they hit the same wall last month and gave up on it.

Watch terms
Everything the sweep should look for: the company and product names, the domain you own, the handles people tag instead of typing a name, and any competitor you want to hear about. Terms are searched literally, so add the shortened forms and the wrong spellings your community actually types.
Ping policy
When a post is worth interrupting a working day and when it belongs in the once daily line instead: the accounts or communities that always count, the kinds of question you want reaching you fast, your quiet hours, and the channel all of it lands in.

Why Hermes for this agent
Seniority over follower count
A maintainer with a small following can decide whether an engineering team tries you. Each message names the account and the inference so a person can weigh it themselves.
Open model, no posting rights
The agent reads and writes to Slack. Whatever model you connect, there is no route from it to your public account.
Good to know
Before you fork
Will an open model read sarcasm correctly in a thread?
Not reliably, and no model does. What the workflow gets right is handing you the raw material: the post quoted as typed, the root it hangs off, the replies that matter, and the counts at the moment they were read. When a call is close the message is meant to give you the thread rather than a verdict, and a wrong call costs a glance rather than a public reply.
