Post to Google Business Profile from Hermes Agent
Hermes Agent can post updates on Google Business Profile through ClipSpeed. Add the ClipSpeed server with one config block, sign in, and then ask Hermes Agent to post updates, pick the time, and apply Google Business Profile's settings, without leaving a self-hosted agent framework. Google Business Profile is on the roadmap on ClipSpeed's rail; this page describes how it works and says so.
Keep a human in the loop: Hermes Agent shows the plan and asks before anything is public. Posting today: YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X (Twitter) and LinkedIn.

- Add the clipspeed server with the URL and Authorization header to the agent's MCP configuration.
- Restart the agent and ask it to list your channels.

What can Hermes Agent do on Google Business Profile?
On Google Business Profile, Hermes Agent can post updates, offers and events with a photo and a call-to-action to your Business Profile. Every booking runs through the same rules as the ClipSpeed app.
Text and Image posts
Google Business Profile takes text and image through ClipSpeed. Image: JPG or PNG, at least 720×720.
1,500 characters, checked at booking
Google Business Profile's own arithmetic. Too long is refused with the real count, never trimmed at send time. Titles cap at 58.
Exact time or refused
Name the minute and Hermes Agent books it, or you are told why not and offered the next open slot. A booked Google Business Profile post is never moved behind your back.
Preview before anything posts
preview: true runs the whole booking and writes nothing. Hermes Agent shows the plan, with each slot and the day's remaining cap, and books only on your yes.
Clips cut in the same chat
Submit a video or stream link, get captioned 9:16 clips with a viral score, and post the best moment's hook on Google Business Profile with a link to the clip. No download, no re-upload.
Pacing and numbers
Planned: Text posts on Google Business Profile are at least 240 minutes apart, up to 2 a day. After a post goes out, Hermes Agent can read back views and engagement where Google Business Profile provides them.
How does Hermes Agent post to Google Business Profile through ClipSpeed?
You describe what you want in plain language and Hermes Agent makes the ClipSpeed calls. A typical conversation has three beats.
Find your Google Business Profile channel
Ask Hermes Agent whether Google Business Profile is connected. It calls list_channels and reads platform_settings, so it also knows what Google Business Profile accepts and the limits before you write a word.
Compose within the rules
Describe the post. Hermes Agent drafts within Google Business Profile's limits; mention a clip or a file and it attaches it.
Schedule or publish
Name a time, or say now. The slot is booked exactly or refused with the next open one, and the reply carries the id you can cancel or edit by.
Google Business Profile settings reference

Google Business Profile limits and gotchas to know
Google Business Profile enforces a few rules that Hermes Agent and ClipSpeed respect automatically, but knowing them helps you phrase requests.
- 1,500 characters per post and a 58-character title on events and offers.
- Google removes posts that look like ads for third parties; posts should be about your business.
- Google Business Profile is on ClipSpeed's roadmap, not the next rail. Bookings are refused plainly until it posts.
- Photos should be at least 720×720.
- Pacing is tight on purpose: two posts a day.
| Rule | Google Business Profile |
|---|---|
| Accepts | Text, Image |
| Text limit | 1,500 characters |
| Title | 58 characters, optional |
| Links in the caption | A call-to-action link is a separate field |
| Pacing | Planned: Text posts on Google Business Profile are at least 240 minutes apart, up to 2 a day. |
| Formats | Image: JPG or PNG, at least 720×720. Aspect: 4:3 or 1:1 |
| Status | On the roadmap; described here, not yet bookable |
What Postiz-style schedulers cannot do
Cut the clips first
Hermes Agent does not need finished video to start. Hand it a YouTube link, a podcast, a stream VOD or a local export. ClipSpeed finds the moments, cuts them to 9:16 with word-by-word captions, scores each one 0 to 100 for shareability, and returns them in the same conversation. Hermes Agent picks by score, writes the post from the transcript, and books the best moments as links on Google Business Profile. Three tool calls, one approval, no download and no re-upload.
- Clips arrive with a title written from the hook, a transcript and a viral score, so the agent can choose and caption without watching the footage.
- Live streams can be clipped while they are still on air; the agent books the highlights for the next morning before the stream ends.
- Every clip is already hosted, so
schedule_posttakes its id directly. Nothing moves through your laptop.
submit_to_clipspeedPaste the link. ClipSpeed starts the job and returns a project id.check_clipsPoll with the project id. Back come the finished 9:16 clips with titles, transcripts, viral scores and preview links.schedule_postPass the clip id, the platforms, a caption and a time. Hermes Agent shows the plan with preview: true, you say yes, it books.generate_image or generate_videoDescribe the shot. ClipSpeed runs it on the model that fits (Seedance, Kling, Veo, Nano Banana Pro, GPT Image and others) and quotes the credits first.wait_for_generationReturns the hosted result link and a preview the agent can show you.schedule_post with media_urlThe result link goes straight into the booking on Google Business Profile. The caption, the time and the file are approved together.The other half nobody else has
Generate the image, then post it
A product shot for Instagram, a 16:9 announcement graphic for X, a six-second opener before a clip: Hermes Agent can make an image with ClipSpeed's image and video models and book the result in the same reply. There is no separate design tool, no export, no upload page. The generated file is hosted, so media_url is the only thing the booking needs.
- The price in credits is quoted before anything renders, within the per-generation and daily caps you set in Settings.
- Results are previewed in the conversation, so you approve the picture and the post at once.
- Images post as JPG, PNG or WebP up to 25 MB; links are kept clickable.

Google Business Profile and Hermes Agent: frequently asked questions
How do I post to Google Business Profile from Hermes Agent?
Generate a key in ClipSpeed under Account → API & Integrations. Add the clipspeed server with the URL and Authorization header to the agent's MCP configuration. Connect Google Business Profile in ClipSpeed (or ask Hermes Agent for a connect link; it is private and valid for ten minutes), then describe the post in plain language. Hermes Agent reads the Google Business Profile rules, drafts within them, shows the plan and books on your yes. Google Business Profile is on the roadmap; until the badge changes, the booking is refused with a plain message.
What can Hermes Agent post to Google Business Profile through ClipSpeed?
Post updates, offers and events with a photo and a call-to-action to your Business Profile. Google Business Profile takes text and image posts. Text is limited to 1,500 characters. A title is capped at 58 characters.
Which Google Business Profile settings can Hermes Agent control?
The fields in the settings reference above: text, title, cta, media_url, scheduled_at, preview. Mention any of them in plain language ("unlisted", "tomorrow at 9", "preview first") and Hermes Agent sets the matching field before it books.
Do I need a Google Business Profile API key or developer account?
No. You connect Google Business Profile to ClipSpeed once through Google Business Profile's own sign-in, and Hermes Agent talks to ClipSpeed with a ClipSpeed API key you can revoke at any time. No Google Business Profile developer key, bearer token or password is pasted anywhere.
How many Google Business Profile posts a day can Hermes Agent schedule?
Planned: Text posts on Google Business Profile are at least 240 minutes apart, up to 2 a day. When a time is taken, the booking is refused with the next open slot rather than moved. Ask for preview to see a day's plan and the remaining cap before anything is booked.
Can posts go out to Google Business Profile while I am away?
Yes. Once booked, ClipSpeed publishes at the scheduled minute whether or not Hermes Agent is open. For unattended runs that decide what to post, use a headless agent such as Claude Code or Codex with the same account.
Is posting to Google Business Profile from Hermes Agent different from OpenClaw?
The booking is identical: the same rules, the same calendar, the same refusals. What differs is where you work. Hermes Agent: your own machine or server. OpenClaw: your machine; messaging apps, personal agent with chat surfaces.
