Grok Bot as Spanish front door to Hermes over Tailscale SSH
Hermes on your machine speaks commands; you want plain-language orchestration.
What hurt
Samuel (@MiMundoConIA) connects Hermes on his computer to Grok Bot via Tailscale SSH. First chat asks what to connect and what never to touch without consent. Grok Bot speaks normal Spanish, picks Hermes profiles, can set routines for kanban trouble, and crosses Hermes with other connectors — with approval before model/skill/cron changes.

What to install or create
Requires Hermes already running + Tailscale. Grok Bot orchestrates; Hermes executes locally.

Talks plain language. SSH to Hermes. Asks before dangerous changes.

Optional
Routines
None on the first run. Watch one manual pass first.
The prompt
This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.
First run
- 1Read https://x.com/MiMundoConIA/status/2109319112409370844 (credit @MiMundoConIA).
- 2Confirm Hermes is running locally and Tailscale SSH reaches it.
- 3Connect from Grok Bot; answer the first-run what-to-connect / never-touch interview.
- 4Try one read-only status task in plain language.
- 5Fence model/skill/cron edits as Ask-first; add notify-only routines for kanban trouble if useful.
Approval fence
Do not change Hermes models, pinned skills, or crons without your yes.
What to tweak
Steal the SSH orchestrator pattern. Plain language in; approved commands out.
