This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your Folk 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 Folk with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/openclaw) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/folk/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 Folk to Hermes ### Integrating Folk 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 Folk MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Folk MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Folk account. It provides structured and secure access to your CRM workspace, so your agent can perform actions like managing contacts, organizing companies, retrieving group info, and handling custom fields on your behalf. - Contact management and retrieval: Let your agent list, fetch, or delete people in your workspace, ensuring your contact database stays relevant and up to date. - Company and organization operations: Effortlessly create new companies, retrieve details, or remove outdated organizations from your workspace via your agent. - Workspace group insights: Ask your agent to list workspace groups and explore available group custom fields for efficient segmentation and tracking. - User profile and context access: Allow your agent to pull current workspace user details, making personalized automations and actions possible. - Custom field exploration: Enable your agent to list and understand custom fields for groups and entity types, powering more tailored CRM workflows. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `FOLK_CREATE_COMPANY` | Create Company | Tool to create a new company in the workspace. use after gathering all required company details and ensuring the name is unique. | | `FOLK_DELETE_COMPANY` | Delete Company | Tool to delete a company from the workspace (irreversible). use after confirming this company should be removed. | | `FOLK_FOLK_DELETE_PERSON` | Delete Person | Tool to delete an existing person in the workspace (irreversible). use after confirming this person should be permanently removed. | | `FOLK_FOLK_LIST_COMPANIES` | List Companies | Tool to list companies in the workspace. use when you need a paginated overview of companies, optionally filtered. | | `FOLK_GET_COMPANY` | Get Company | Tool to retrieve an existing company by its id. use after authentication has been verified. | | `FOLK_GET_CURRENT_WORKSPACE_USER` | Get Current Workspace User | Tool to get details of the current authenticated workspace user. use after authentication to retrieve the user's profile information. | | `FOLK_GET_PERSON` | Get Person | Tool to retrieve an existing person by their id. use when you need full profile details of a person by their unique identifier. | | `FOLK_LIST_GROUP_CUSTOM_FIELDS` | List Group Custom Fields | Tool to list custom fields for a specific group and entity type. use after selecting a group and entity type to inspect available custom fields. | | `FOLK_LIST_GROUPS` | List Groups | Tool to list workspace groups. use when you need to retrieve a paginated list of all workspace groups after authentication. | | `FOLK_LIST_PEOPLE` | List People | Tool to list people in the workspace. use when you need to paginate through contacts after authentication. | | `FOLK_LIST_USERS` | List Users | Tool to list workspace users. use when you need to paginate through users list. | | `FOLK_UPDATE_COMPANY` | Update Company | Tool to update an existing company in the workspace. use after confirming the company id; only provided fields are updated and list fields replace existing values. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Folk MCP server provides comprehensive access to Folk operations through Composio. Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Folk actions on your behalf using natural language commands. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward With Folk 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 Folk MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Folk tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Folk 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 Folk tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Folk while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Folk 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 Folk 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)
