One brief, a full Hashnode plan
Hermes breaks a goal into steps on its own: draft the articles, upload media, schedule each one and report back with what it queued for Hashnode.
HashnodeAutomate Hashnode with Hermes
Hand Hermes one brief and it plans the whole week: drafting Hashnode articles, scheduling them at the right times and reporting back when the queue is full.
Quick start
Install the CLI where Hermes executes commands, then hand over the Hashnode plan in plain language.
Terminal
npm install -g postqueenexport POSTQUEEN_API_KEY=your_api_key # A task for Hermes:# "Plan next week on Hashnode: draft five# articles, schedule them and list# what you queued"What Hermes can run on Hashnode
Windows that fit Hashnode
Tell Hermes when your readers are most active and it schedules articles into that window on Hashnode, day after day, without reminders.
Long-form arrives intact
Hermes hands postqueen the full draft, formatting included, and it lands on your Hashnode blogs as complete articles, ready for readers.
Drafts until you are ready
Ask Hermes for drafts only. They sit on the postqueen calendar unscheduled, so you can edit them and pick the time yourself, and nothing reaches your readers on Hashnode until you do.
Three steps to a full queue
Discover Hashnode
Hermes calls postqueen to list your connected blogs and sees what Hashnode supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.
Draft with Hermes
Give it the brief. The agent writes Hashnode-shaped articles and proposes publish times that match when your readers are around.
Check and publish
Look over the queue on the postqueen calendar and change anything you want. postqueen publishes each post at its time, and Hermes can pull the results after.
What Hashnode allows
Hermes reads these limits from postqueen before it composes, so a draft that would be rejected never reaches the queue.

F.A.Q.
Frequently asked questions
How does Hermes connect Hashnode to postqueen?
Install the postqueen CLI where Hermes runs commands and export your API key. Every command returns JSON, so the agent can create, schedule and list Hashnode articles reliably.
Can Hermes schedule Hashnode articles at exact times?
Yes. Give it exact slots or a rule like mornings at nine and it sets publish times on the articles it creates, so your readers see them at the right moment.
Will Hermes publish to Hashnode on its own?
Only if you ask it to. Tell it to save drafts and nothing is scheduled: the articles wait on the calendar until you set a time. Tell it to schedule, and they go out at the times you can see, which is the setup most people move to once they trust the output.
Can one brief cover Hashnode and other channels too?
Yes. postqueen connects 30 channels, so Hermes can turn the same brief into Hashnode articles plus adapted versions for every other channel you run.
Does Hermes access cost extra on postqueen?
No. The agent uses your regular API key and plan limits: unlimited posts on every plan, and channel counts from 5 on Creator up to uncapped on Ultimate.
What formats do Hashnode articles support?
Articles are Markdown with fenced code blocks, syntax highlighting, images and rich embeds, plus a cover image and up to 5 tags. postqueen preserves the Markdown exactly as you wrote it, so code samples publish clean.
When is the best time to publish on Hashnode?
There is no universal answer, and Hashnode softens the question anyway: if your newsletter is enabled, subscribers get the article by email whenever it lands. Aim for a consistent cadence in your audience's main time zones and refine from your own results. Scheduling lets you test windows without staying up for them.
