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 Linkedin 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 Linkedin 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 Linkedin

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

4. Done. You're all set with a new Linkedin 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 Linkedin MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Linkedin MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Linkedin account. It provides structured and secure access to your LinkedIn profile and company pages, so your agent can post updates, fetch your profile, manage company info, and even delete posts on your behalf.

  • Automated LinkedIn posting: Let your agent create and share new posts from your profile or managed company pages, keeping your network engaged without manual effort.
  • Profile information retrieval: Instantly fetch your LinkedIn profile details, including author ID and headline, for use in resumes, reporting, or personalized content generation.
  • Company page management: Retrieve a list of organizations you manage, making it easy for your agent to post or gather company info for employer branding and outreach.
  • Content cleanup and moderation: Direct your agent to delete specific LinkedIn posts (by share ID) to maintain a professional, up-to-date presence.

Supported Tools & Triggers

Tools

Delete LinkedIn PostDeletes a specific linkedin post (share) by its unique `share id`, which must correspond to an existing share.
Get company infoRetrieves organizations where the authenticated user has specific roles (acls), to determine their management or content posting capabilities for linkedin company pages.
Get my infoFetches the authenticated linkedin user's profile, notably including the 'author id' required for attributing content such as posts or articles.

Way Forward

With Linkedin 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 Linkedin MCP?

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

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

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