This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your Dock certs 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. ## Also integrate Dock certs with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/openclaw) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/dock_certs/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### What is Composio Connect? Composio Connect is a consumer offering that lets anyone plug 1,000+ applications directly into their agent harness โ€” 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 Dock certs to Hermes ### Integrating Dock certs 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 Dock certs MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Dock certs MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Dock certs account. It provides structured and secure access to your verifiable credentials and decentralized identity management, so your agent can perform actions like issuing credentials, managing API keys, retrieving credential details, and automating webhook notifications on your behalf. - Instant credential issuance and management: Easily have your agent issue new verifiable credentials, retrieve detailed credential metadata, or delete outdated credentials as needed. - Secure API key lifecycle management: Direct your agent to create, list, retrieve, or delete API keys, ensuring secure programmatic access for your organization. - Automated webhook setup and oversight: Let your agent create or delete webhook endpoints, so you can receive real-time event notifications from Dock certs to your own systems. - Credential retrieval and decryption: Ask your agent to fetch specific credentials by ID, with options for full retrieval if protected by a password, ensuring secure and flexible access. - Tag and metadata cleanup: Enable your agent to delete obsolete tags or credential metadata, keeping your Dock certs environment organized and up to date. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `DOCK_CERTS_CREATE_API_KEY` | Create API Key | Tool to create an API key.

Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Dock certs actions on your behalf using natural language commands. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward With Dock certs 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 โ€” 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.

With a standalone Dock certs MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Dock certs tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Dock certs 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 Dock certs tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Dock certs while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Dock certs 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 Dock certs data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) ยท [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
