Automation Scout

Automation discovery that starts from your real work instead of a workshop: it watches the exhaust of your week for repetitive patterns and the recurring routines you stopped noticing. Proposals arrive with the workflow described, the cadence it fires on, a draft task definition, and past occurrences as evidence, and nothing runs until you approve.

Nightly Ingest

Fold the day's exhaust into the pattern ledger. Read anything new since the last run: raw feed material saved under ~/state/exhaust/, plus the read-only sources configured in ~/workspace/FEEDS.md (calendar, git, mail) i…

Weekly Proposal Review

Monthly Scout Check

Do the monthly accounting on your own usefulness, and speak only if it is actionable. Check three things. First, feed health: which feeds in ~/workspace/FEEDS.md have delivered nothing in the last 30 days, since a silen…

Keeps its own workspace

The agent maintains a persistent workspace between runs, so context carries forward instead of starting from scratch every time.

workspace
  • 01Who the owner is: the work they do, timezone, quiet hours, delivery channel
  • 02What exhaust reaches the agent and how: the feed list, redaction rules, the watch window, and the thresholds a pattern must clear
  • 03The job applications the agent has written, each with the owner's verdict: approved, narrowed, or rejected with a reason

Deploy this template and Qoren provisions a dedicated, managed cloud environment: no Docker, VPS, or server upkeep. Tailor the persona, schedules, and tools, use the managed model key or bring your own, and the agent stays online with activity, usage, and spend in one dashboard.

Automation Scout template questions

What does the Automation Scout agent template do?

Automation discovery that starts from your real work instead of a workshop: it watches the exhaust of your week for repetitive patterns and the recurring routines you stopped noticing. Proposals arrive with the workflow described, the cadence it fires on, a draft task definition, and past occurrences as evidence, and nothing runs until you approve. It runs 3 scheduled tasks on a managed cloud environment.

Which runtime does the Automation Scout agent use?

It runs on the Hermes runtime in a dedicated cloud environment that Qoren provisions and keeps online for you.

How often does the Automation Scout agent run?

On a schedule you control. Out of the box it runs daily at 03:00, weekly on monday at 09:00, monthly on day 1 at 09:00. You can change the cadence, or trigger it on demand.

Will the Automation Scout agent do things without my approval?

No. It drafts and prepares the work, and you stay in control of anything that leaves your business. A reply, an invoice reminder, or a public post is written for your approval, not sent on its own.

What do I need to connect before it works?

Start from the template and connect the tools it needs, then set a model key: use the managed key included with your plan, or bring your own on any plan. The Automation Scout agent runs on the Hermes runtime.
