What Hermes can do and change
Last updated: October 24, 2026
Who can do this: anyone in the organisation, on the Early Access plan.
What it does
Hermes answers from your records and changes them when you ask. Each thing it does is a named tool.
- The Tools row under an answer lists the tools that ran, with a tick or a cross against them.
- Opening the row shows what went in, and the error where one came back.
- A bulk action, an export, or a job Hermes reads or lists shows under the reply instead. Its line says what happened, such as Checked 4 quotes, and its card is below that line.
- Once a job ends, its card links to the job’s page in Bulk Activity.
The table lists each job Hermes does and the tools that do it.

An MCP client reaches the same AI through lucrii_ask, lucrii_summarize and lucrii_semantic_search. It spends from the same credits as your questions to Hermes.
Before you start
- Hermes will not send a quote or set an order status by itself. Sending, and any other status change, happens on the order page or through a bulk action you approve after its preview.
- Hermes and an MCP client give each date as YYYY-MM-DD. Lucrii reads it as that day in your organisation’s timezone.
- Hermes and an MCP client meet the same limits as the forms. Lucrii refuses a longer value, and Hermes passes on the message, which gives the field and its limit.
- Hermes can delete. Deleting a task deletes its notes with it. Deleting a board deletes its columns, and the tasks that were on it stay in the task list. Ask for either only when you mean it.
How to use it
- Ask for what you want in plain words. Hermes picks the tools itself.
- Read the Tools row under the answer to see what it touched.
- Select the row to open it, and select a tool inside it for the detail of that call.
- Open the record to check anything for yourself. The page behind the panel reloads after a turn that changed records.
Troubleshooting
Hermes refuses to create something because of a plan limit. It says so in a sentence in the conversation, with no error, and will not say which limit you hit. Check the billing page for that.
