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 Scrapingbee 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 Scrapingbee 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 Scrapingbee

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

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

5. Done!

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

The Scrapingbee MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Scrapingbee account. It provides structured and secure access to powerful web scraping tools, so your agent can extract data, fetch HTML, bypass anti-bot measures, and monitor your usage—all without manual code.

  • Structured data extraction from any webpage: Let your agent pull tables, lists, or custom data using CSS or XPath selectors with ScrapingBee's extraction rules.
  • Fetch full HTML or page screenshots: Ask your agent to retrieve raw page markup or rendered screenshots, including support for JavaScript-heavy sites.
  • Proxy and stealth scraping: Enable your agent to scrape sites that block bots by routing requests through ScrapingBee proxies or stealth modes to bypass anti-bot defenses.
  • Resource control and custom rendering: Have your agent fine-tune scraping with options to block resources, control JS rendering, and speed up extraction for tricky websites.
  • Monitor account usage and limits: Keep track of your remaining ScrapingBee credits and usage statistics directly through your agent for seamless quota management.

Supported Tools & Triggers

Tools
ScrapingBee Data ExtractionTool to extract structured data from a webpage using css or xpath selectors.
ScrapingBee HTML FetchTool to fetch html or screenshot via scrapingbee html api.
ScrapingBee Proxy ModeTool to fetch web content via scrapingbee's proxy mode.
ScrapingBee Stealth ProxyTool to perform stealth scraping via scrapingbee's stealth proxy mode.
ScrapingBee Usage StatsTool to retrieve usage statistics for your scrapingbee account.

Way Forward

With Scrapingbee 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 Scrapingbee MCP?

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

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

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