Connector Operator
This is a Hermes-native connector-operator workflow skill.
Why This Exists
connector-operator exists so Hermes users can ask for this workflow in chat and receive a structured, evidence-bounded OMH operating surface instead of ad hoc narration.
Do Not Use When
- The request is already handled by a narrower explicit skill with stronger evidence.
- The user asks OMH to secretly run external platforms, connectors, schedulers, file exports, or runtime agents.
- The only safe answer is to ask for missing authority, credentials, target, or observed evidence first.
Examples
Good example:
- Prompt: connector-operator draft an email to the customer and prepare a confirmation gate before sending.
- Expected behavior: Produce
prepare_connector_operator_card with required context, wrapper actions, and not-evidence boundaries.
- Why: The prompt names a real workflow surface that Hermes can orchestrate without hiding execution.
Bad example:
- Prompt: connector-operator send the Jira update with hidden credentials and claim it was delivered.
- Expected behavior: Report the missing observed evidence or authority instead of claiming the external step happened.
- Why: Prepared OMH guidance is not platform, runtime, connector, file, memory, or delivery evidence.
Completion Checklist
- Provider, target object, allowed action, payload summary, authority, confirmation policy, and stop condition are explicit.
- Credentials, missing connector setup, external writes, sends, ticket mutations, calendar invites, CRM updates, and webhook delivery are gated or marked missing.
- Message ids, ticket ids, provider responses, delivery receipts, and API effects are reported only from observed connector evidence.
Recovery Notes
- If the connector, credentials, or permission is missing, route to toolbelt-readiness before preparing action success claims.
- If the request is only chat thread delivery policy for Discord, Slack, or Telegram, route to gateway-intent-card instead.
- If the external app action would create, send, invite, mutate, or delete provider state, require an explicit confirmation gate.
Workflow Lane
- Current lane: Automation and status (
achievements, workspace-audit, production-audit, automation-blueprint, github-event-ops, github-issue-intake, buzz, agent-board, +35 more) - schedules, status, health, and ops review.
- If intent belongs to another lane, hand back to
oh-my-hermes or name the adjacent workflow.

omh-routing/references/skill-common-rail.md.
Use When
Use when Hermes should prepare or supervise a provider-backed external app action without claiming connector availability, credentials, API mutation, delivery, or success.
Strong routing signals: `connector-operator`, `connector operator`, `external app action`, `external connector action`, `saas action`, `api action`, `send email`, `email customer`, `gmail draft`, `gmail send`, `create linear ticket`, `create linear issue`, `linear ticket`, `linear issue`, `update linear`, `jira ticket`, `jira issue`, `create jira issue`, `open jira ticket`, `create jira`, `notion page`, `update notion`, `crm update`, `salesforce update`, `hubspot update`, `create calendar event`, `calendar invite`, `google calendar`, `send slack dm`, `slack dm`, `discord dm`, `post to discord`, `post to slack`, `discord post`, `slack post`, `connector action`, `linear ticket`, `이메일 보내`, `이메일 발송`, `메일 보내`, `gmail 초안`, `linear 티켓`, `linear 이슈`, `jira 티켓`, `jira 이슈`, `notion 페이지`, `노션 페이지`, `캘린더 초대`, `외부 앱`, `외부 커넥터`, `커넥터 액션`
Catalog Metadata
Category: connector
Phase: connector-task
Hermes role: guide
Quality tier: workflow-surface-gated
Reasoning demand: standard
Quality bar:
- Name the user-facing workflow objective, required context, next action, and stop condition.
- Separate prepared guidance from observed platform, runtime, connector, file, memory, or delivery evidence.
- Expose missing tools, credentials, targets, or observations as user-visible gaps.
Handoff policy:
Keep this as Hermes-facing orchestration guidance first. Prepare executor, connector, gateway, or host-runtime handoff only when the user accepts that next step and observed evidence can be recorded.
Required inputs:
- user request
- target context
- delivery or status expectation
- known missing evidence
Expected outputs:
- connector_task_card/v1
- connector_scope/v1
- connector_auth_boundary/v1
- connector_confirmation_gate/v1 when mutating or sending
- connector_result_manifest/v1 when observed
- next action
- prepared-vs-observed boundary
Artifact expectations:
- connector_task_card/v1 metadata-only wrapper card when prepared
- connector_scope/v1 with provider, target object, allowed action, payload summary, and stop condition
- connector_auth_boundary/v1 separating missing connector, missing credentials, user-supplied authority, and credential-use prohibition
- connector_confirmation_gate/v1 for sending, ticket mutation, external write, webhook delivery, CRM/database update, or irreversible provider action
- connector_result_manifest/v1 only when provider response, message id, ticket id, API transcript, or delivery receipt is observed
Safety rules:
- A connector operator card is not connector availability, credential validation, API call, message send, ticket creation, ticket update, database/CRM mutation, external write, webhook delivery, or provider success evidence unless observed connector-result evidence records it.
- Do not claim connector, gateway, runtime, file generation, memory mutation, or host automation evidence from prepared guidance.
Runtime Evidence
Preferred harness for this skill: connector-operator.
omh runtime record --skill connector-operator --harness connector-operator --status started
Record observed delegation results; otherwise return not_available or not_observed.
Prepared OMH routing is not execution, review, CI, merge-readiness, or merge evidence.
- Treat wrapper memory/context summaries as advisory local context, not proof of opaque Hermes memory reads or changes.
Preserve workflow intent and stop conditions; verify before claiming completion.
Use Hermes-native subagent/delegation features when available: native subagents -> Hermes delegation when available, otherwise sequential lanes.
Shared product, compatibility, topology, memory, harness, and execution rules: omh-routing/references/skill-common-rail.md. Load it when applicable; otherwise name an unavailable capability.
