What it does

Mom-n-Pop-Skills is a collection of sixteen Hermes Agent-format skills for owners of small service companies: construction, cleaning, landscaping, consulting. The lead skill `lead-to-payment` carries work from lead to payment and calls the rest: `crm-lite` on SQLite, `estimator-engine` for estimates, `stripe-payments`, `quickbooks-online`, `mailchimp-integration`, `outlook-graph`. Every skill follows one principle: the agent drafts, the owner approves, then the agent executes. Emails, charges and ledger entries do not go out without explicit confirmation. The author built the examples during a hackathon and stripped them of real business data.

Who it is for. Owners of small service companies who want to hand lead, estimate and invoice routine to an agent while keeping every payment and email decision.

Good fit when

  • A website lead arrives by email and an estimate and a draft customer reply are needed.
  • Invoices go through Stripe and the owner wants to confirm every charge in the app.
  • Books are kept in QuickBooks Online and an agent analyses expenses from a CSV export.
  • A customer mailing is assembled in Mailchimp from a ready campaign draft.

Not a fit when

  • A turnkey product is expected: the README calls the collection reference implementations that you adapt.
  • The agent must act without confirmation: the skills are built around stopping before money and emails.
  • Only European or Russian payment and accounting services are available; the set has none.

Example request

Take the lead from the latest email, price it with the `estimator-engine` skill, draft a reply to the customer and wait for my confirmation before sending.

Limitations

The skills use the Hermes Agent format; other agents load them as markdown instructions. Python 3.11 or newer and keys for the services you enable are required: Stripe, QuickBooks, Mailchimp, Microsoft Graph. `stripe-link-cli` works only in the US and on Linux or macOS. Estimates and prices count as drafts until the owner approves. The repository's last commit is dated 11 September 2026. Keep the approval step when adapting: without it an agent may send email or charge money without the owner's knowledge.

How to disable. Delete the copied folders from the agent's skills directory, for example `~/.hermes/skills/`. Revoke Stripe, QuickBooks, Mailchimp and Microsoft Graph keys in the services and delete the local `crm-lite` database.

FAQ

Which skill should I start with?

With `lead-to-payment`: it describes the whole chain from lead to payment and shows how the others connect.

Will the agent charge money or send email by itself?

No. Every skill that spends money, writes to customers or changes the books stops and waits for explicit owner confirmation.

Does it work with Claude Code or Cursor?

Yes, as instructions: point the skill loader at `skills/<name>/SKILL.md`. The format targets Hermes Agent, so the agent reads metadata fields as plain text.

How do I install only part of the set?

Copy the folders you need one by one, for example `cp -r skills/crm-lite ~/.hermes/skills/`.

Which services are needed?

Only those whose skills are enabled: Stripe, QuickBooks, Mailchimp, Microsoft Graph, Google Workspace or JobTread. `crm-lite` and `estimator-engine` need no external keys.
