## 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 Threads 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.

## Also integrate Threads with

- [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/threads/framework/chatgpt)
- [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/threads/framework/claude-cowork)
- [Atomic Agent](https://composio.dev/toolkits/threads/framework/atomic-agent)

## TL;DR

### What is Composio Connect?
Composio Connect is a consumer offering that lets anyone plug 1,500+ 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 Threads to Hermes

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

The Threads MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Threads account. It provides structured and secure access to publishing, replies, public content, profile details, and performance insights, so your agent can publish posts, manage conversations, discover content, and analyze engagement on your behalf.
- Post publishing and sharing: Have your agent publish text, image, video, carousel, quote, poll, ghost, GIF, or text-attachment posts, and optionally share them as Instagram Stories.
- Conversation management: Let the agent reply to posts, list replies and mentions, review pending replies, and hide or unhide replies on posts you manage.
- Public content discovery: Direct your agent to search posts by keyword or topic tag, look up public profiles, browse their posts, and find locations for post tagging.
- Profile and post analytics: Instruct your agent to retrieve profile insights, post engagement metrics, publishing limits, and your profile details.
- Content maintenance: Have your agent list your posts, replies, ghost posts, and reposts, then delete posts or repost content when needed.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `THREADS_CREATE_AND_SHARE_POST` | Create and Share Post | Create and publish a top-level Threads post and cross-share it to the linked Instagram account as a Story. Returns crossreshare_to_ig_status to report whether the Story cross-share succeeded independently of Threads publication. |
| `THREADS_CREATE_POST` | Create Post | Create and publish a top-level Threads text, image, video, carousel, quote, poll, ghost, GIF, or text-attachment post, optionally with a location tag. |
| `THREADS_CREATE_REPLY` | Create Reply | Create and publish a reply to a Threads post, including a text, image, video, carousel, quote, poll, GIF, or text-attachment reply. |
| `THREADS_DELETE_POST` | Delete Post | Permanently delete a Threads post owned by the connected profile. |
| `THREADS_GET_LOCATION` | Get Location | Retrieve one Threads location by ID for inspection or post tagging. |
| `THREADS_GET_MY_PROFILE` | Get My Profile | Return the connected or app-scoped Threads user's profile and identity fields. |
| `THREADS_GET_POST` | Get Post | Retrieve one Threads post by ID. Third-party posts may be unavailable until the Meta app has advanced access. |
| `THREADS_GET_POST_EMBED` | Get Post Embed | Return embeddable HTML and oEmbed metadata for a public Threads post. |
| `THREADS_GET_POST_INSIGHTS` | Get Post Insights | Return selected lifetime engagement metrics for one post owned by the connected Threads profile. |
| `THREADS_GET_PROFILE_INSIGHTS` | Get Profile Insights | Return one time-window page of selected profile time-series, totals, link clicks, follower counts, or follower demographics for a Threads profile. |
| `THREADS_GET_PUBLISHING_LIMITS` | Get Publishing Limits | Return current usage and configured quota for Threads posts, replies, deletes, location searches, or all publishing categories. |
| `THREADS_LIST_GHOST_POSTS` | List Ghost Posts | List active and archived ghost posts created by the connected Threads profile, one cursor page at a time. |
| `THREADS_LIST_MY_MENTIONS` | List My Mentions | List public Threads posts that mention the connected profile, one cursor page at a time. With development access, Threads may return only mentions made by app testers, so an empty page does not prove that no public mentions exist. |
| `THREADS_LIST_MY_POSTS` | List My Posts | List posts created by the connected Threads profile, one cursor page at a time. |
| `THREADS_LIST_MY_REPLIES` | List My Replies | List replies created by the connected Threads profile, one cursor page at a time. |
| `THREADS_LIST_PENDING_REPLIES` | List Pending Replies | List one page of pending or ignored replies for an owned Threads post. The post must have been created with reply approvals enabled. |
| `THREADS_LIST_POST_REPLIES` | List Post Replies | Return either immediate replies or the flattened full conversation for a Threads post, one cursor page at a time. |
| `THREADS_LIST_PUBLIC_PROFILE_POSTS` | List Public Profile Posts | List one cursor page of posts from a qualifying public Threads profile by exact username. Standard or unreviewed app access is restricted to selected official Meta accounts, and returned post IDs may not support direct retrieval until the app has advanced access. |
| `THREADS_LOOKUP_PUBLIC_PROFILE` | Lookup Public Profile | Look up a qualifying public Threads profile by exact username. Profiles generally need at least 100 followers, and standard or unreviewed app access is restricted to selected official Meta accounts. |
| `THREADS_REPOST_POST` | Repost Post | Repost an existing Threads post to the connected profile; this creates a visible post. |
| `THREADS_REVIEW_PENDING_REPLY` | Review Pending Reply | Approve or ignore one pending reply; an ignored reply can later be approved. |
| `THREADS_SEARCH_LOCATIONS` | Search Locations | Search Threads locations by text, coordinates, or both. Returns the provider-ranked unpaginated result set. |
| `THREADS_SEARCH_POSTS` | Search Posts | Search one page of Threads posts by keyword or topic tag. Broader public results require Meta advanced access, so an empty page may reflect app-review limits rather than no public matches. |
| `THREADS_SET_REPLY_VISIBILITY` | Set Reply Visibility | Hide or unhide a top-level reply and its nested replies on a post managed by the connected profile. |

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Threads 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 Threads MCP?

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

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

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