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 Piloterr 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 Piloterr 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 Piloterr

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

4. Done. You're all set with a new Piloterr 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.

Copy MCP URL and API key from Composio dashboard

2. Open the Hermes config file

bash
nano ~/.hermes/config.yaml

3. Add the Composio Connect MCP server

bash
mcp_servers:
  composio:
    url: "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
    headers:
      x-consumer-api-key: "YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY"
    connect_timeout: 60
    timeout: 180

Save with Ctrl + O, Enter, then exit with Ctrl + X.

4. Restart your Hermes agent

Once restarted, ask your agent to connect to Piloterr or request any Piloterr-related task. It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

5. Done!

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

The Piloterr MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Piloterr account. It provides structured and secure access to a suite of powerful web data extraction APIs, so your agent can perform actions like searching products, retrieving detailed product info, and monitoring account usage on your behalf.

  • Product search on retail platforms: Direct your agent to search for products on sites like Auchan or Bestbuy by keyword, category, or filters, and receive curated product listings.
  • Retrieve detailed product information: Ask your agent to fetch comprehensive product details—including company info—using specific product IDs from supported platforms.
  • Monitor account usage and credits: Let your agent check your Piloterr account usage and remaining credits, so you always know how much data access you have left.
  • Automated product data workflows: Enable your agent to seamlessly combine product search and retrieval, powering advanced e-commerce, analytics, or market research tasks.
  • Multi-platform product integration: Effortlessly access and aggregate product data from multiple online stores to inform business decisions or drive automation.

Supported Tools & Triggers

Tools
Auchan ProductTool to retrieve detailed auchan product information.
Auchan Product SearchTool to search for products on auchan by query or search url.
Piloterr Get Product InfoTool to retrieve detailed product information by product id.
Bestbuy Product SearchTool to search for products on bestbuy by query.
Get UsageTool to get usage information and remaining credits for your piloterr account.

Way Forward

With Piloterr 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 Piloterr MCP?

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

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

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