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 WildApricot 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 WildApricot 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 WildApricot

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

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

5. Done!

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

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

Way Forward

With WildApricot 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.

TOOLS

Supported Tools

Every WildApricot action and event your agent gets out of the box.

Create Contact

Create a WildApricot contact or member using an API key configured with Full access; a successful connection or list_accounts metadata does not prove write access.

Delete Contact

Permanently delete one WildApricot contact or member by ID using an API key configured with Full access; a successful connection or list_accounts metadata does not prove write access.

Get Contact

Get one WildApricot contact or member by ID, optionally including pending membership order, invoice, and allowed-action metadata.

Get Event

Get full details for one WildApricot event by ID, including schedule, location, access, and registration settings.

List Accounts

List WildApricot accounts available to this connection, including account IDs, plan indicators, contact limits, and provider-advertised resource operations.

List Contact Fields

List contact and membership field definitions, including field names, types, and search/edit metadata used to construct contact filters and field-selection requests.

List Event Registrations

List event registrations for a required contact_id, event_id, or set of registration_ids, optionally including form details or waitlist entries.

List Membership Levels

Return one page of membership levels, optionally restricted to specific IDs, with fees, application eligibility, type, and renewal metadata.

Search Contacts

Return one synchronous page of contacts matching a simple text search or WildApricot filter.

Search Events

Return one synchronous page of events matching a validated WildApricot event filter, ordered by event start date or session start.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone WildApricot MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of WildApricot tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from WildApricot and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

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 WildApricot tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which WildApricot 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.

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 WildApricot data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
