What is the Hermes Kanban new free update?

The Hermes Kanban new free update is a major upgrade that adds a Kanban board for orchestrating multiple AI agents. You drop one task into the triage column, and the orchestrator agent automatically breaks it into subtasks and assigns them to the right specialist agents.

How do I set up Hermes Kanban?

To set it up, run `hermes update` in your terminal to get the latest version. Then open the dashboard with `hermes dashboard` and scroll to the Kanban section. You can create tasks in the triage column, and the system will handle the rest automatically.

Can Hermes Kanban really run AI SEO on autopilot?

Yes. In the episode, Julian showed how one task turned into a 1,350-word blog post. Multiple agents work in parallel: one researches, one writes, one publishes – all without you touching anything. One website grew from 15 clicks to over 1,100 clicks per day using this system.

Is the Hermes Kanban board buggy?

Julian said the Kanban board can sometimes be a little buggy. If a task gets stuck in ready, you can ask your agent in Claude or Hermes why it is not working. The system often fixes itself. If it keeps failing, use the block column and add a comment for the agent.

What API should I use for the best results with Hermes Kanban?

The quality of outputs depends on the API you use. If you use a subpar API, the content will not be as good. For best results, train Hermes with a custom skill that defines exactly how you want your content created. Keep tweaking the prompts over time.

Where can I get the prompts and files to build my own AgentOS?

Julian shares the prompts, zip files, and documentation inside the AR Profit Boardroom. You can also get a full Hermes course there. If you want a one-to-one SEO strategy session, go to Goldie.agency.

Hermes Kanban New FREE Update: Full Setup Guide

01What the Hermes Kanban New FREE Update Is

Hermes Kanban new free update is a major upgrade to Hermes Agent that adds an automated Kanban board for orchestrating multiple AI agents. Instead of one agent working alone, you can now run a full team of agents that all work at the same time. One agent plans your content, one builds it, and one publishes it – all on autopilot.

You give the system one single task, and the orchestrator agent automatically breaks it into smaller subtasks. It then finds the right agent profile for each subtask and assigns the work. This means you can create more content, rank for more keywords, and get more traffic without doing any of the manual work yourself.

The whole process runs 24/7, even when you are not at your computer.

02Key Features of the New Kanban Update

This update brings several powerful features that change how you work with AI agents:

Orchestrator agent: Drop one sentence into the triage column and it creates a full project plan with subtasks.
Automatic routing: Each subtask is sent to the agent profile that specializes in that work – researcher gets research, writer gets writing, etc.
Parallel execution: Multiple agents work at the same time on different parts of the same project.
Human in the loop: You can assign tasks, add comments, block tasks, and review outputs directly on the board.
Full history: Every task shows its run history, events used, and final outputs saved as markdown files.
CLI commands: You can manage the board from the terminal using commands like hermes kanban create, hermes kanban watch, and hermes kanban list.

03How to Set Up the New Hermes Kanban Update

Open your terminal and run hermes update to fetch the latest version and all new skills.
Type hermes dashboard to open the Hermes Agent dashboard in your browser.
Scroll down to the Kanban section. You will see columns: triage, ready, running, done, and blocked.
To create a new task, click inside the triage column and type one sentence describing your goal. For example: “Write a blog about AI SEO automation with OpenCLR.”
Click create. The orchestrator agent will automatically break your goal into subtasks and move the task to the ready column.
(Optional) Build an Agent Operating System (AgentOS) by giving Claude or another agent the Hermes Kanban documentation. It will generate a mission control dashboard that syncs with your Kanban board.
If you want, assign the task to a specific agent by clicking the assignee dropdown and selecting the agent profile you created (e.g., “Julian” for writing).

04How to Use Kanban for SEO Content Creation

Here is exactly how one task turned into a completed blog post in the episode. Julian typed “Write a blog about AI SEO automation with OpenCLR” into the triage column. The orchestrator agent immediately split that into subtasks: research the topic, outline the post, write the draft, and save the file.

The task moved from triage to ready, then to running once assigned.

In a second test, Julian added a task to “Create a new website built locally in HTML about AI automation that looks nice and sends traffic to the AI profit ordering community.” The orchestrator created subtasks for design, coding, and deployment. Meanwhile, the SEO section of the AgentOS can also generate content directly: you plug in a keyword, pick a case study, and it deploys the post automatically.

The memory layer inside AgentOS makes the system smarter over time. When Julian added the blog task, the system already knew his audience cared about OpenCLR, so it tailored the content automatically. The final blog was 1,350 words, saved to the workspace, and viewable inside the board.

05Results and Traffic Growth from This System

In the episode, Julian showed real websites that grew using this process. One website went from 15 clicks per day up to a peak of 1,134 clicks per day. Another went from 1 click per day to 95 clicks per day.

A third went from 0 clicks to 71 clicks per day.

These websites use the Kanban board to create better content, organize it, and make it as useful as possible. All of them deploy directly to Netlify. The system also tracks the trajectory of each site, so you can see the growth over time.

Julian noted that the quality of the outputs depends partly on the quality of the API you use. For best results, train Hermes with a custom skill that defines exactly how you want your content created.

06Tips, Limits, and Mistakes to Avoid

Julian shared several important tips and warnings. First, the Kanban board can sometimes be a little buggy. If a task gets stuck in the ready column, you can ask your agent directly in Claude or Hermes: “I set this task, why is it not working?” The system often fixes itself.

Second, train your agents with skills for creating content. Without training, the outputs may not match your style. Give Hermes the exact prompts, skills, and context it needs, then keep tweaking over time.

Third, if setting up open-source tools like OpenCLR or Hermes is too difficult, use a cloud-hosted option like Max Hermes or Max Claude that deploys in one click.

Fourth, always use the block column when a task fails repeatedly. You can add a comment with instructions, and the operating system picks it up on the next tick. Finally, do not manually assign tasks one by one.

Let the orchestrator profile handle that. Your only job is to set the direction.

07Who Should Use the Kanban Update and Why It Matters

This update is for anyone who wants to automate SEO content creation and website growth with AI. If you are tired of managing agents one by one, the Kanban board lets you become the CEO of a machine that runs 24/7. You set goals, review results, and give direction – the orchestrator agent handles the implementation.

The AgentOS centralizes everything: Claude, Hermes, Kanban, memory, and SEO tools all in one dashboard. You can see your chat history, manage tasks, and deploy content from the same place. This matters because it saves you hours every day and lets you scale your content output without hiring more people.

As Julian said, “This is not about prompting better; it is about building an operating system that implements even while you are not there.”
