Prep for the shift
Every shift starts by guessing what to prep and what might run out.
From the menu and the reservation count you give it, it can suggest a prep list. If the menu is a file, Hermes can use it when you point it there. If not, paste it into ChatGPT or Claude. It does not see the fridge and it does not take orders.
