Test driving Hermes what am I missing?

I have done my fair share of AI work, custom setups with vercel sdk, N8N, windmill, custom nestjs

Have Claude openai perplexity accounts and subs to open router and deepseek. Done a lot of skill and MCP creations

I was missing a setup that runs autonomous and does hard grunt work for me.

Test driving Hermes but a bit disappointed, I am a fan of opensource and appropriate this project but I am still missing all the hype.

- the Kanban setup I like the idea, but can't delete a task? No dropdown to select a profile?

- weird setup with profiles which don't really act as subagents?

- the UI sucks, really hard to read fonts and colors?

- no way to expand the logs per Kanban task properly? I am scrolling in a tiny window

- I like the gateway thing, but using telegram for a while.. it doesn't fit the purpose, shouldn't this project have a dedicated (web) app for managing the setup?

Within 10 minutes I had quirks/bugs and patches which don't survive updates

Watched some YT videos but it doesn't really seem to click for me in the ergonomics department. I feel like I am missing something obvious. I know exactly what I want but it seems a different thinking paradigm.

Again not hating, hope to get some tips or closure haha.

On PRO account, always have to forward invoices, but now in the UI after 30 minutes can't seem to find the invoices anymore... they seem to removed it from the stripe subscription page?

Don't tell me they levelled up 'viewing invoices' to the enterprise tier? This is criminal
