## 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 Dify 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 Dify to Hermes

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

The Dify MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Dify account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Dify operations on your behalf.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `DIFY_GET_WORKFLOW_APP_CONFIGURATION` | Get Workflow App Configuration | Return the connected Workflow app's identity, declared input form and upload limits, tool icons, and hosted-site settings. If the app is unpublished, the response identifies the unavailable parameters section while preserving the other metadata. |
| `DIFY_GET_WORKFLOW_RUN` | Get Workflow Run | Return one workflow run's status, inputs, arbitrary outputs, error, and execution metrics by run ID. |
| `DIFY_LIST_WORKFLOW_RUNS` | List Workflow Runs | Return one page of run summaries for the connected Workflow app, with filters and a continuation cursor for older or additional runs. |
| `DIFY_RUN_WORKFLOW` | Run Workflow | Run the connected app's latest published workflow in blocking mode and return its app-defined outputs. Inspect the app configuration first: the configured workflow may perform irreversible external side effects. |

## Supported Triggers

None listed.

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

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

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Dify 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 Dify MCP?

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

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

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