This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your News api 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 News api with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/openclaw) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/news_api/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 News api to Hermes ### Integrating News api 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 News api MCP server, and what's possible with it? The News api MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your News api account. It provides structured and secure access to live news data, so your agent can perform actions like searching headlines, retrieving articles, and filtering news stories by topic, source, or date on your behalf. - Headline search and retrieval: Instantly fetch the latest news headlines from thousands of trusted sources around the world, tailored to your interests or keywords. - Topic-based article discovery: Ask your agent to pull in-depth articles about specific topics, trends, or breaking events as they happen. - Source and region filtering: Easily filter news stories by publication, language, or geographic region to get the most relevant updates for your needs. - Date and time range queries: Quickly access news published within a certain date or time window, perfect for tracking ongoing stories or recent developments. - Trending and popular news aggregation: Let your agent surface the most-read or widely shared articles so you never miss what’s making headlines. ## Supported Tools None listed. ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The News api MCP server provides comprehensive access to News api operations through Composio. Once connected, Hermes can perform all major News api actions on your behalf using natural language commands. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward With News api 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 News api MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of News api tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from News api 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 News api tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for News api while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which News api 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 News api data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
