Connect WhatsApp Group Notes to Hermes Agent

Anyx Notes arrive automatically

1. With an active Anyx subscription, add Anyx to the WhatsApp group from the group info: tap Add and choose the Anyx contact. Group admins, or anyone the group allows to add participants, can do this. Tell members it is there. Once Anyx has joined, tag @Anyx from your verified number to connect the group.
2. For newly connected groups on an active plan with an email on the account, Notes and automatic email are already on. Notes go to that account address, with a default interval of 24 hours. No configuration is needed to start. An interval with no new messages produces no email.
3. Open one delivered note. Check the group, reporting period, actual sender and subject. The subject starts with the literal prefix [Anyx]; the group name can be in the subject or inside a combined email. Use the relevant group section and do not mix groups. Choose a run time after the note normally arrives, in your own time zone.

Anyx setup and email settings

Connect your assistant

1. 1. Choose the receiving account

   For Gmail, choose the Nous connector or separate Google Workspace OAuth skill and check account, permissions and cost. These tools can act on mail, not only read it. Nous says its connector service retains content returned by Google tools for up to 14 days; this is not an all-Hermes retention rule. For other mailboxes, the separate Email gateway uses IMAP/SMTP, a dedicated inbox, sender allowlisting and authentication checks. It can reply to senders and filters some automated mail, so test an actual note before using it. Otherwise paste a note.

2. 2. Inspect one source

   Read one new Anyx email and show its group and covered period. A combined email can hold the group inside its body. Compare the brief with the note and inspect actual tool permissions.

3. 3. Check a recurring job

   After the test, request a recurring job and review its time zone, next run, skills/account and private output. Jobs start fresh sessions, so verify fresh retrieval there. An incoming-email gateway is not proof of later inbox-search access. Self-hosted agent jobs need your Hermes gateway running; check runtime readiness with your host if managed.

What this looks like at work

Fictional examples. These are not customer quotes or measured outcomes.

If email access or scheduling is unavailable

Paste the relevant note into the assistant and ask for the same brief without the mailbox or scheduling instruction. A recurring reminder can remind you to paste a fresh note; it does not read your mailbox or update an old paste.

Check the first recurring result

• During its first reporting interval, a newly connected group may wait for more messages before producing its first note. A missing first email alone does not prove setup failed.
• Does it identify the correct group, newest email and covered period? If the expected note is missing, it should say so instead of silently using an older one.
• Are owners and dates actually stated in the note? Suggestions should be labelled, and missing facts should remain unknown.
• Are messages, tickets, bookings and calendar changes still awaiting your review? A prompt is an instruction, not a technical permission lock. Review connector permissions and approval settings too.

Keep the scope clear

Share only notes you are allowed to share with that assistant. Email recipients can see the whole note. Anyx notes cover captured messages after it joined, plus any history you explicitly imported; they do not guarantee complete group history. This email workflow does not give the other assistant live WhatsApp access.
