## 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 Connecteam 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.

## TL;DR

### 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.

## Connect Connecteam to Hermes

### Integrating Connecteam 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 Connecteam MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Connecteam MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Connecteam account. It provides structured and secure access to your workforce management data, so your agent can perform actions like managing users, retrieving chats, processing forms, handling jobs, and analyzing performance metrics on your behalf.
- User management and automation: Quickly add new employees, archive inactive users, or update user details to keep your workforce roster up to date.
- Team communications monitoring: Retrieve chat conversations and team channels, making it easy for your agent to help you stay on top of internal messages and updates.
- Form and workflow processing: List and review all existing forms, so your agent can help automate routine HR tasks and data collection.
- Job and scheduling insights: Access job objects tied to your schedules or time clocks, letting your agent assist with workforce planning and role assignments.
- Performance and policy analytics: Fetch performance indicators and available time-off policy types, enabling your agent to surface key metrics and streamline HR policy management.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Connecteam MCP server provides comprehensive access to Connecteam operations through Composio. Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Connecteam actions on your behalf using natural language commands.

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Connecteam 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 Connecteam MCP?

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

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

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