## 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 Rootly 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 Rootly to Hermes

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

The Rootly MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Rootly account. It provides structured and secure access to your incident action items, so your agent can list, review, retrieve detailed information, and manage follow-up tasks on your behalf during or after incidents.
- Comprehensive action item retrieval: Instantly list all incident-related action items, making it easy for your agent to track ongoing or outstanding tasks.
- Detailed action item inspection: Pull up in-depth information for any action item—including summary, description, priority, status, and due date—to keep teams informed and accountable.
- Streamlined task management: Direct your agent to remove obsolete or completed action items, ensuring your incident follow-up list stays relevant and up to date.
- Automated follow-up coordination: Use your agent to monitor and organize post-incident tasks, helping your team close the loop on every incident and maintain operational excellence.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ROOTLY_DELETE_ACTION_ITEM` | Delete Action Item | This tool allows for the deletion of a specific action item in rootly. it complements the existing rootly list action items functionality by providing the ability to remove individual action items from the system. |
| `ROOTLY_GET_ACTION_ITEM` | Get Action Item Details | This tool retrieves a single action item by its id from rootly using a get request to https://api.rootly.com/v1/action items/{id}. it provides detailed information about an action item including summary, description, kind, assigned to, priority, status, due date, and more. it complements other action item management tools. |
| `ROOTLY_LIST_ACTION_ITEMS` | List Action Items | This tool retrieves a list of all action items for an organization in rootly. action items are tasks or follow-up items that need to be completed during or after an incident, helping to track and manage incident-related tasks effectively. |

## Supported Triggers

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

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

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Rootly 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 Rootly MCP?

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

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

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