This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your Kraken io 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 Kraken io with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/openclaw) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/kraken_io/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 — 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 Kraken io to Hermes ### Integrating Kraken io 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 Kraken io MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Kraken io MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Kraken io account. It provides structured and secure access to your image optimization tools, so your agent can automatically compress images, resize or convert files, monitor account usage, and test optimizations without consuming real credits. - Real-time image optimization by URL: Instantly compress, resize, or convert images hosted on public URLs—perfect for streamlining website performance or social media workflows. - Quota and account status monitoring: Let your agent check your Kraken.io plan limits, remaining quota, and current account status before processing images, so you never hit a surprise limit. - Metadata preservation during compression: Instruct your agent to optimize images while keeping essential EXIF and metadata intact, making sure important information stays with your files. - Sandbox image upload and testing: Safely upload and optimize images in sandbox mode, allowing you to test settings and workflows without using up your actual credits. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `KRAKEN_IO_CHECK_USER_STATUS` | Check Kraken.io User Status | Tool to retrieve current kraken.io account status and quota usage. use when you need to verify plan limits and remaining quota before processing images. | | `KRAKEN_IO_OPTIMIZE_IMAGE_URL` | Optimize Image by URL | Tool to optimize an image from a public url. use when you need to compress, resize, or convert an externally hosted image. returns result immediately if 'wait' is true. | | `KRAKEN_IO_PRESERVE_METADATA` | Preserve Image Metadata | Tool to preserve exif and other metadata during kraken.io image optimization. use when you need to maintain metadata while compressing images. | | `KRAKEN_IO_SANDBOX_UPLOAD` | Sandbox Image Upload | Tool to upload and optimize images in sandbox mode. use when you want to test the kraken.io api without consuming credits. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Kraken io MCP server provides comprehensive access to Kraken io operations through Composio. Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Kraken io actions on your behalf using natural language commands. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward With Kraken io 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.

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