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 Apiflash 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.

What is Composio Connect?

Composio Connect is a consumer offering that lets anyone plug 1,000+ applications directly into their agent harness — including Hermes. It can:

  • 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.

Integrating Apiflash 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
Hermes authenticating with Composio

2. Authenticate

Once the CLI is installed, ask Hermes to authenticate with Composio.

3. Connect to Apiflash

Ask your agent to connect to Apiflash, or simply request any Apiflash-related task. Hermes will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

4. Done. You're all set with a new Apiflash connection.

Using Composio Connect MCP

1. Get your MCP URL and API Key

Go to dashboard.composio.dev and copy your Connect MCP URL and API key.

Copy MCP URL and API key from Composio dashboard

2. Open the Hermes config file

bash
nano ~/.hermes/config.yaml

3. Add the Composio Connect MCP server

bash
mcp_servers:
  composio:
    url: "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
    headers:
      x-consumer-api-key: "YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY"
    connect_timeout: 60
    timeout: 180

Save with Ctrl + O, Enter, then exit with Ctrl + X.

4. Restart your Hermes agent

Once restarted, ask your agent to connect to Apiflash or request any Apiflash-related task. It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

5. Done!

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

The Apiflash MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Apiflash account. It provides structured and secure access to high-quality website screenshot capture, so your agent can capture web pages, manage batches of screenshots, retrieve quota usage, and access screenshot metadata on your behalf.

  • Single and batch website screenshot capture: Instantly direct your agent to take high-resolution screenshots of one or many web pages at once, perfect for monitoring, archiving, or sharing site visuals.
  • Customizable screenshot requests: Let your agent use advanced options with POST requests to tailor captures using form data and specific parameters for precise results.
  • API quota monitoring: Check your remaining screenshot credits and quota status in real time, so your automations never hit unexpected usage limits.
  • Screenshot metadata retrieval: Pull detailed information about previously taken screenshots, including file size and dimensions, for reporting or further processing.

Supported Tools & Triggers

Tools
Batch Capture ScreenshotsTool to capture screenshots for multiple urls in a single request.
Capture Website Screenshot (POST)Tool to capture a screenshot of a website via http post.
Get Quota InformationTool to retrieve current api quota usage and limits.
Get Screenshot MetadataTool to retrieve metadata for a previously captured screenshot.

Way Forward

With Apiflash 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.

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Apiflash MCP?

With a standalone Apiflash MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Apiflash tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Apiflash 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 Apiflash tools.

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

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Apiflash 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 Apiflash data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
