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 Postmark 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 Postmark 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 Postmark

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

4. Done. You're all set with a new Postmark 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 Postmark or request any Postmark-related task. It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

5. Done!

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

The Postmark MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Postmark account. It provides structured and secure access to transactional email sending and analytics, so your agent can perform actions like delivering transactional emails, monitoring delivery status, managing templates, and analyzing engagement metrics on your behalf.

  • Automated transactional email delivery: Let your agent send password resets, confirmations, and notification emails with high deliverability and reliability.
  • Template management and customization: Enable your agent to create, update, or select dynamic email templates for consistent, branded communications.
  • Email delivery status monitoring: Ask your agent to track sent messages, check delivery receipts, and identify bounced or failed emails in real time.
  • Engagement and analytics tracking: Have your agent retrieve open and click data, analyze engagement trends, and provide actionable insights from your email campaigns.
  • Suppression list and recipient management: Direct your agent to manage suppression lists, process unsubscribes, and maintain healthy recipient lists automatically.

Way Forward

With Postmark 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 Postmark MCP?

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

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

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