## Introduction

Hermes is a 24/7 autonomous agent that lives on your computer or server — it remembers what it learns and evolves as your usage grows.
This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your Amara account to Hermes. You can do this through either Composio Connect CLI or Composio Connect MCP. For personal use we recommend the CLI, but you won't go wrong with MCP either.

- Search and load tools from relevant toolkits on-demand, reducing context usage.
- Chain multiple tools to accomplish complex workflows via a remote workbench, without excessive back-and-forth with the LLM.
- Manage app authentication end-to-end with zero manual overhead.

## Connect Amara to Hermes

### Integrating Amara with Hermes
### Using Composio Connect CLI
1. Install the Composio CLI
Run the install script directly, or paste https://composio.dev/hermes into your Hermes chat box to have it installed for you.

```bash
curl -fsSL https://composio.dev/install | bash
```

## What is the Amara MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Amara MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Amara account. It provides structured and secure access to your videos, subtitles, language tracks, teams, and activity, so your agent can add videos, create subtitles, manage translations, review activity, and coordinate with collaborators on your behalf.
- Video library management: Have your agent add videos, attach video URLs, choose a primary URL, list your videos, and view their details.
- Subtitle creation and retrieval: Direct your agent to create subtitles in a chosen language, fetch existing subtitle content, and inspect available subtitle actions.
- Language track management: Let the agent create subtitle language tracks, list languages available for a video, and retrieve details about each track.
- Subtitle review and publishing: Instruct your agent to publish, unpublish, approve, reject, send back, or endorse subtitles based on their current workflow state.
- Team coordination and activity tracking: Have your agent list teams, review user or platform activity, manage subtitle notes, and send messages to Amara users or team members.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `AMARA_ADD_SUBTITLE_NOTE` | Add Subtitle Note | Adds a note/comment to a specific subtitle language for a video. Notes are used for collaboration and providing feedback on subtitles during the editing process. Requires a valid video ID and language code. Use this tool to document issues, provide suggestions, or communicate with other subtitle editors. |
| `AMARA_ADD_VIDEO_URL` | Add Video URL | Tool to add a new URL to a video, allowing association with multiple video providers (YouTube, Vimeo, etc.). Use when you need to add alternative URLs for the same video content on different platforms. |
| `AMARA_CREATE_SUBTITLE_LANGUAGE` | Create Subtitle Language | Creates a new subtitle language track for an Amara video. This is the first step before adding or uploading subtitles - you must create the language track before you can add subtitle content. Each video can have multiple subtitle languages, but you cannot create the same language twice for the same video. Use list_subtitle_languages to check existing languages before creating a new one. |
| `AMARA_CREATE_SUBTITLES` | Create Subtitles | Tool to create new subtitles for a video in a specific language. Accepts subtitle data in multiple formats (SRT, VTT, DFXP, etc.) either as a string or via URL. The subtitle language must already exist for the video - use create_subtitle_language first if needed. Use when you need to add subtitle content to a video. |
| `AMARA_CREATE_VIDEO` | Create Video | Tool to add a new video to Amara. Use when you need to create a video entry from a URL. Supports URLs from YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, or direct video file URLs. |
| `AMARA_DELETE_VIDEO_URL` | Delete Video URL | Tool to remove a video URL from a video. Use when you need to delete an unwanted or incorrect URL from a video's list of URLs. The video must have at least one other URL remaining. |
| `AMARA_FETCH_SUBTITLES_DATA` | Fetch Subtitles Data | Fetch subtitle data for a video in a specific language. Returns a list of subtitle segments with start/end timestamps and text content. Use this after obtaining a video ID (from List Videos) and confirming available language codes (from List Subtitle Languages). |
| `AMARA_GET_ACTIVITY` | Get Activity | Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific activity by its ID. Use when you need to fetch metadata for a particular activity event. |
| `AMARA_GET_SUBTITLE_LANGUAGE_DETAILS` | Get Subtitle Language Details | Tool to retrieve details for a single subtitle language. Use when you have video ID and language code and need metadata about that language track. |
| `AMARA_GET_TEAM_DETAILS` | Get Team Details | Tool to get details on a specific team by slug. Use when you need metadata for a single team. |
| `AMARA_GET_TEAM_LANGUAGES` | Get Team Languages | Tool to get language preferences for a specific team by slug. Use when you need to retrieve preferred and blacklisted languages for a team. |
| `AMARA_GET_USER_ACTIVITY` | Get User Activity | Tool to retrieve activity log for a specific user on Amara. Use when you need to view a user's recent actions such as video additions, subtitle edits, or comments. Returns a paginated list of activity items with details about what actions the user performed, on which videos, and in which languages. |
| `AMARA_GET_USER_DATA` | Get User Data | Retrieves detailed user profile information from Amara, including username, avatar, biography, languages spoken, and video counts. Use this tool when you need to: - Fetch a user's profile details by their username or user ID - Get information about the authenticated user using 'me' as identifier - Look up user metadata like languages, biography, or avatar - Obtain user resource URIs for further API operations Note: User IDs (with 'id$' prefix) are more reliable than usernames since usernames can be changed by users. |
| `AMARA_GET_VIDEO_URL` | Get Video URL | Tool to get details for a specific video URL. Use when you need to retrieve metadata about a specific URL entry in Amara's system by video_id and url_id. |
| `AMARA_GET_VIDEO_URL_DETAILS` | Get Video URL Details | Tool to get details for a specific video URL. Use when you have a public or embeddable video URL and need its Amara metadata (ID, title, duration, thumbnails, etc.). |
| `AMARA_LIST_ACTIVITY` | List Activity | Tool to list activity across Amara. Use when you need to retrieve activity logs with optional filters by team, video, or activity type. |
| `AMARA_LIST_AVAILABLE_LANGUAGES` | List Available Languages | Tool to get a list of all supported languages. Use when you need to know available language options from Amara. |
| `AMARA_LIST_SUBTITLE_ACTIONS` | List Subtitle Actions | Tool to list available actions for subtitles based on current workflow state. Use when you need to determine what operations can be performed on a subtitle (e.g., approve, reject, publish) for a specific video and language. |

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Amara connected, Hermes can now act on your behalf whenever it detects a relevant task or you ask it to.
From here, you can extend Hermes further:
- Connect more apps: Calendar, Slack, Notion, Linear, and hundreds of others are available through the same Composio Connect setup. Each new integration compounds what Hermes can do for you.
- Build workflows across tools: Once multiple apps are connected, Hermes can chain actions together — turn an email into a calendar invite, a Slack message into a Linear ticket, or a meeting note into a follow-up draft.
- Let it learn your patterns: The more you use Hermes, the better it gets at anticipating how you'd handle recurring tasks. Give it feedback on drafts and decisions, and it will adapt.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Amara MCP?

With a standalone Amara MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Amara tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Amara and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Hermes?

Yes, you can. Hermes fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Amara tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Amara while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Amara scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Amara data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
