- `/root/.hermes/.hermes/desktop-attachments/CertificateOfCompletion_Artificial Intelligence for Marketing.pdf` (LinkedIn)

## Brand mix:
- Anthropic (3 certs — highest name recognition in your stack)
- LinkedIn Learning / Microsoft (2 certs — auto-shared to LinkedIn)
- HubSpot (1 course completion — marketing niche)
- HP LIFE (1 cert — global brand, free)

## Prestore for later sessions
- "Rob did an 8-cert sprint on Aug 1, 2026." Prevents future-session re-litigation of whether the certs exist.
- The MCP Advanced Topics one ties directly into what he runs on Hermes; relevant context for any future MCP questions.
- HubSpot course completion record is in-dashboard, not PDF. If anyone asks for the cert PDF, point them to academy.hubspot.com dashboard.
