FAQPage Schema
How do I auto-discover and register MCP server tools in Hermes Agent?▼

Hermes Agent auto-discovers MCP server tools by reading mcp_servers entries from ~/.hermes/config.yaml at startup, automatically injecting them as first-class commands without manual wiring.

Does Hermes MCP integration support both stdio and HTTP transport servers?▼

Yes, Hermes MCP integration supports both stdio-based and HTTP-based MCP servers, requiring the optional mcp package and Python 3 to enable HTTP transport tool discovery and registration.

What do I need to configure before connecting Hermes Agent to an MCP server?▼

You need to configure mcp_servers entries under ~/.hermes/config.yaml, ensure Python 3 is installed, and add the optional mcp package if you plan to connect to HTTP-based MCP servers.

How does automatic MCP tool discovery work in Hermes Agent?▼

Automatic MCP tool discovery works by connecting to configured MCP servers at Hermes Agent startup, extracting their available tools, and exposing them as first-class commands within Hermes' toolsets for seamless conversational use.

Why are my HTTP MCP server tools not registering in Hermes Agent?▼

HTTP MCP server tools may fail to register if the optional mcp package is missing, or if mcp_servers entries are incorrectly formatted in the ~/.hermes/config.yaml configuration file.
