agent-native scheduling, not another dashboard
Most social scheduler SaaS keeps you in a browser tab. OpenQuok is built for Instagram from Hermes Agent
Typical social scheduler SaaS
- Copy posts between your AI chat and a separate scheduling tool
- Siloed API keys and workflows that do not compose with your agent stack
- Always-on integrations that bloat agent context
- Locked to one vendor's models or automation layer
- One workspace mixing every context as you add channels and parallel sessions
- Autopilot publishing with no human checkpoint
OpenQuok + Hermes Agent
- Message Hermes from Telegram, Discord, or Slack to draft and schedule
- Eligibility is checked automatically — credentials stay on your host
- Skills load on demand, keeping the agent context clean
- Works with Nous Portal, OpenRouter, Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, and self-hosted endpoints
- Multi-workspace isolation — spin up a workspace per context so channels, and drafts never cross wires
- Every post lands as draft or scheduled — you approve before anything goes live

Frequently asked questions
Hermes Agent + Instagram,answered
What Hermes Agent is, how to install openquok-core, scheduling Instagram posts, human approval, and how agents draft from chat.
Hermes Agent is an autonomous AI assistant built by Nous Research. It runs on your laptop, a VPS, or serverless hosts, connects to 20+ chat platforms, creates and improves skills from experience, and takes real actions — including drafting and scheduling social media through OpenQuok. See the Hermes Agent integration and agent setup guides.
Install @openquok/auto-cli, add openquok-core under ~/.hermes/skills/, and authenticate once. See the Hermes agent guide and CLI getting started.
Hermes Agent can draft and schedule Instagram posts, upload images and video, apply per-platform settings, and pull platform and post analytics for your connected Instagram account. The openquok-core skill documents integrations:list, posts:create, posts:status, analytics:platform, upload, and more — every command returns structured JSON for the agent to parse. See Hermes Agent + Instagram and the Instagram humanizer tool for channel-specific workflows.
Connect your Instagram account via the Instagram setup guide or the Instagram channel landing. Install openquok-core on Hermes Agent with the Hermes Agent agent guide. Message your assistant to schedule — Hermes Agent uses integration UUIDs from openquok integrations:list to target your Instagram account. Every post lands as a draft or scheduled item until you approve on the calendar or kanban. Browse Instagram playbooks and Instagram building blocks for format ideas.
Posts created through the CLI land in your OpenQuok workspace as drafts or scheduled items. You can review on the calendar or kanban, move posts through draft and review, and approve what should publish.
Yes. OpenQuok is CLI-first — any agent that can run shell commands can use openquok, including OpenClaw, Cursor, and custom automation. This page focuses on Hermes Agent plus the openquok-core skill; pair it with Skills Hub workflows, MCP servers, or cron for richer pipelines. Browse agent hosts and MCP clients.
Cursor and other MCP clients fit editor sessions — see MCP setup guides. Hermes fits always-on chat from Telegram, Discord, Slack, or WhatsApp. Pick Hermes for messaging and scale; pick MCP for in-repo workflows. Many teams use both.
Yes. Run on a VPS, Docker, or serverless backend with a persistent ~/.hermes/ volume, install openquok-core, and authenticate once. See the Docker Compose self-host guide.
Yes. Create an OpenQuok account and start a 7-day free trial on Pricing, connect your channels, install openquok-core on Hermes, and begin scheduling from chat.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) lets AI assistants connect to the tools you use. Connect OpenQuok in your MCP client and your agent can list channels, read platform rules, and schedule posts without opening the dashboard. Start with MCP getting started or a MCP setup guide.
Yes. OpenQuok offers one 7-day free trial per payment customer so you can run social media accounts on auto-pilot before you subscribe the plan. Create an account and start today — no credit card required. Canceling and resubscribing, or creating another workspace, does not grant a second trial. Plan limits are on Pricing and in the billing limits guide; trial rules are in the Cloud trial guide.
Connect channels, write in Creating posts, then pick a time on the calendar or kanban. Agents can use the CLI, agent setup guides, or MCP setup guides.
