Overview
Write goals with five components.
- Outcome. State what must exist at the end.
- Quality criteria. Define the style, completeness, and user experience expected.
- Required capabilities. Name the skills or connectors Hermes should use.
- Delivery condition. Specify where the final artifact should be stored or deployed.
- Completion evidence. Require a link, file, dashboard, or project status that proves the work is
finished.
For example, a website goal can require an animated background, polished motion, visual assets, offer copy, repeated booking calls to action, deployment through here.now, and a live link returned to the home channel.
A video-editing goal can require two passes: remove bad takes and pauses, then add B-roll, captions, and a final inserted clip. The completion evidence is the final exported video and a Multica issue moved to review.
A property-marketing goal can require a complete kit, a deployed page, a list of additional listings, and contact details collected through Firecrawl.
After a goal completes, inspect the artifact. If a defect remains, give a concrete correction and allow Hermes to run another improvement pass. When the result becomes repeatable, turn the goal procedure into a skill.
