Plan a trip, then tighten the rules after feedback
A travel agent found a flight-and-hotel option using stored preferences, then changed its memory after a debrief and searched again.
- What they did
- A developer set up Hermes Agent with saved traveler profiles, memory, skills, and web search, then asked it to plan a Dubai business trip. It ran three web searches, used the preferences already in memory, and returned one trip option for approval. After the author wrote a debrief, the agent updated its memory file with a new layover limit and replanned.
- How it went
- The first plan came back at about $850 and stayed pending approval, so nothing was purchased. After the debrief, the agent switched to nonstop flights on the next pass. The profiles and dates were fixture data, so no real trip was booked.
- Tips
- Load real traveler profiles into memory before trying this with your own trips. Keep the approval step in place so the agent can research and compare without placing orders or making reservations.
