## 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 Vestaboard 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 Vestaboard to Hermes

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

The Vestaboard MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Vestaboard account. It provides structured and secure access to your Vestaboard displays, so your agent can perform actions like listing subscriptions, sending custom messages, and managing display content on your behalf.
- List all Vestaboard subscriptions: Easily retrieve and review every Vestaboard subscription linked to your account so you know exactly which displays your agent can manage.
- Send messages to any board: Direct your agent to post custom messages or notifications to a specific Vestaboard subscription in real time, perfect for reminders, daily schedules, or inspirational quotes.
- Automate display updates: Schedule or trigger automatic content updates across multiple Vestaboards without manual effort, keeping your displays fresh and relevant.
- Centralized display management: Manage all your connected Vestaboards from one place—no need to hop between apps or devices to update your displays.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `VESTABOARD_LIST_SUBSCRIPTIONS` | List Subscriptions | Tool to list all subscriptions accessible to the authenticated user. use when you need to retrieve your subscriptions. example: "list my subscriptions on vestaboard." |
| `VESTABOARD_SUBSCRIPTION_API_SEND_MESSAGE` | Send Message to Subscription | Tool to send a message to a specific vestaboard subscription. use after confirming you have the subscription id. example: "send 'hello!' to subscription sub ab12cd34ef." |

## Supported Triggers

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

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

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
With Vestaboard 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 Vestaboard MCP?

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

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

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