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 Google Classroom 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 Google Classroom 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 Google Classroom

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

4. Done. You're all set with a new Google Classroom 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.

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

The Google Classroom MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Google Classroom account. It provides structured and secure access to your classes, assignments, and announcements, so your agent can list courses, manage announcements, create coursework, and handle classroom organization on your behalf.

  • Course and class management: Effortlessly create, list, or delete courses, and get detailed information about any class you manage or attend.
  • Announcement automation: Let your agent create, update, list, or remove announcements in specific courses—keeping students and teachers in the loop.
  • Coursework material handling: Quickly list all coursework materials in a class, so you can track resources and assignments with ease.
  • Streamlined assignment workflows: Organize and distribute assignments and resources, helping automate typical classroom tasks for educators and students.
  • Classroom insights retrieval: Fetch up-to-date details about classes and their structure, enabling your agent to provide summaries or help with enrollment decisions.

Way Forward

With Google Classroom 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 Google Classroom MCP?

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

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

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