HR Assistant Agent with Hermes
Two handbook pages that disagree is the case that breaks an HR bot, because the tempting move is to pick one. This template tells the agent to quote both and hand it over, and Hermes brings general reasoning on an open model to noticing the conflict at all. Whatever it does answer still arrives with the page it read.
Watch it work before it's live
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.

Set up in minutes
Using this template drops you into a guided setup. It asks exactly this, nothing else:
Connect Slack
One sign-in. The agent acts through your account, scoped to what this template uses.
Connect Notion
One sign-in. The agent acts through your account, scoped to what this template uses.
Company name
Your company name as your team says it in Slack, so the assistant sounds like it works there.
Policy notes
Where your policies live in Notion, page or database by page, covering leave, benefits, expenses, and working hours, plus any rule your team follows that nobody has written down yet. The assistant only ever answers from what you list here.
Hr contact
Who takes what a document cannot answer, written exactly as you want it said in Slack: a person's handle, an HR channel, or an email. If different people cover different things, say which is which.

Why Hermes for this agent
Spots the ambiguity
Realising that a leave page and a contract page do not agree is reasoning, not search. The right output there is a handover, and the agent has to see the problem to produce it.
Open model, cited answers
You can keep an internal assistant on an open-model foundation and still get replies that name their source, so nobody has to take its word for anything.
Before you fork
Will it still refuse the personal questions?
The refusals come from the instructions rather than from the model, and they cover pay, complaints, contracts and anything medical with a fixed one-line handover. Run the staged pay and complaint scenario before you switch it on. If a refusal ever reads too softly, the fix is a line in the instructions, not a different model.
