Automate Telegram with Hermes

Hand Hermes one brief and it plans the whole week: drafting Telegram messages, 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 Telegram plan in plain language.

Terminal
npm install -g postqueen
export POSTQUEEN_API_KEY=your_api_key
 
# A task for Hermes:
# "Plan next week on Telegram: draft five
# messages, schedule them and list
# what you queued"

What Hermes can run on Telegram

One brief, a full Telegram plan

Hermes breaks a goal into steps on its own: draft the messages, upload media, schedule each one and report back with what it queued for Telegram.

Windows that fit Telegram

Tell Hermes when your channels and groups are busiest and it schedules messages into that window on Telegram, day after day, without reminders.

The right channels and groups, every time

Hermes lists your connected channels and groups before it posts, so messages land exactly where they should and announcements stay consistent.

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 subscribers on Telegram until you do.

Three steps to a full queue

Step 1

Discover Telegram

Hermes calls postqueen to list your connected channels and groups and sees what Telegram supports, so drafts start from real capabilities, not guesses.

Step 2

Draft with Hermes

Give it the brief. The agent writes Telegram-shaped messages and proposes publish times that match when your subscribers are around.

Step 3

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 Telegram allows

Hermes reads these limits from postqueen before it composes, so a draft that would be rejected never reaches the queue.

Frequently asked questions

How does Hermes connect Telegram 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 Telegram messages reliably.

Can Hermes schedule Telegram messages at exact times?

Yes. Give it exact slots or a rule like mornings at nine and it sets publish times on the messages it creates, keeping your channels and groups active on a steady rhythm.

Will Hermes publish to Telegram on its own?

Only if you ask it to. Tell it to save drafts and nothing is scheduled: the messages 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 Telegram and other channels too?

Yes. postqueen connects 30 channels, so Hermes can turn the same brief into Telegram messages 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.

Which Telegram formats can I schedule?

Text messages up to 4,096 characters, photos and videos with captions up to 1,024 characters, and albums of 2 to 10 items. Formatting like bold, italics and links is preserved.

Can I post to both channels and groups?

Yes. Connect any mix of channels and groups and choose destinations per post. The same queue can feed a public channel and a private discussion group.
