## 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 Solcast 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 Solcast to Hermes

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

The Solcast MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Solcast account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Solcast operations on your behalf.

## Supported Tools

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

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

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Solcast 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 Solcast MCP?

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

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

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