## 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 Ngrok 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.

## 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 Ngrok to Hermes

### Integrating Ngrok 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 Ngrok MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Ngrok MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Ngrok account. It provides structured and secure access to your Ngrok tunnels and API keys, so your agent can perform actions like managing endpoints, listing tunnels, handling API keys, and auditing IP restrictions on your behalf.
- Active tunnel and endpoint monitoring: Instantly list all active tunnels and endpoints in your Ngrok account, making it simple to track running services and public URLs.
- API key management: Programmatically create, list, and delete API keys to securely manage who and what can access your Ngrok resources.
- HTTPS edge configuration visibility: Retrieve a comprehensive list of all HTTPS edges to review and manage how Ngrok handles encrypted traffic.
- IP restriction and policy auditing: List and inspect all IP restrictions and policy rules, helping you enforce access control and security best practices.
- Detailed access audit trails: Fetch details about specific IP restrictions for security audits and compliance, ensuring you always know who can access your tunnels and APIs.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `NGROK_CREATE_API_KEY` | Create API Key | Creates a new api key for authenticating with the ngrok api. this tool allows programmatic creation of api keys that can be used to access ngrok's api services. |
| `NGROK_DELETE_API_KEY` | Delete API Key | Delete an api key by its id. this action permanently removes the specified api key from your ngrok account. this is an important security feature that allows users to revoke access when an api key is compromised or no longer needed. once deleted, the api key cannot be recovered and any services using it will lose access. |
| `NGROK_GET_IP_RESTRICTIONS` | Get IP Restriction Details | This tool retrieves detailed information about a specific ip restriction by its id. it is used to control which ip addresses can access ngrok resources, including the api, by fetching complete details of the ip restriction. this action is essential for auditing and verification in ip restriction management. |
| `NGROK_LIST_API_KEYS` | List API Keys | This tool lists all api keys owned by the user. the api keys are used to authenticate api requests to ngrok's rest api. the endpoint returns a paginated list of api keys. |
| `NGROK_LIST_ENDPOINTS` | List All Endpoints | List all active endpoints on the ngrok account. this tool will list all active endpoints on the ngrok account, providing visibility into running tunnels and endpoints. it requires no input parameters beyond authentication and serves as a fundamental component for monitoring, managing, and referencing ngrok resources. |
| `NGROK_LIST_HTTPS_EDGES` | List HTTPS Edges | Lists all https edges in your ngrok account. https edges are configurations that tell ngrok how to handle https traffic. the action returns a paginated list of all https edges associated with your account. |
| `NGROK_LIST_IP_POLICY_RULES` | List IP Policy Rules | This tool lists all ip policy rules associated with your ngrok account. it retrieves detailed information including rule id, creation timestamp, description, metadata, cidr, the associated ip policy, and the action (allow or deny) for each rule. it supports pagination with parameters 'limit' for the maximum number of results and 'before id' for pagination. |
| `NGROK_LIST_IP_RESTRICTIONS` | List IP Restrictions | This tool retrieves a list of all ip restrictions configured on the ngrok account. it allows users to audit and review all ip-based access restrictions on their ngrok account for enhanced security management. the api endpoint supports pagination with optional parameters such as 'limit' and 'before id', and returns a detailed json response containing attributes like id, uri, created at, description, metadata, enforced, type, and associated ip policies. |
| `NGROK_LIST_TUNNELS` | List Active Tunnels | List all active tunnels in the ngrok account. this tool lists all active tunnels in the ngrok account, providing details such as tunnel id, public url, start time, protocol, configuration details, and metadata. it requires no input parameters beyond authentication and returns a paginated list of all running tunnels with their complete status information. |

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Ngrok MCP server provides comprehensive access to Ngrok operations through Composio. Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Ngrok actions on your behalf using natural language commands.

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Ngrok 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.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Ngrok MCP?

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

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

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