SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Hermes Agent needs to connect to MCP servers to discover tools and expose them as native Hermes Agent tools, enabling seamless tool integration and automation without manual boilerplate.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-discovery: Connects to configured MCP servers and registers discovered tools under the mcp_{server}_{tool} naming convention.
  • Transport flexibility: Supports stdio and HTTP transports with automatic reconnection and robust error handling.
  • Security & isolation: Filters environment exposure for MCP servers to prevent credential leakage and redact sensitive data in errors.
  • Auto-injection: Tools become available across all Hermes platforms and conversations.

Quick Start

Start Hermes Agent to automatically discover and register MCP tools at startup.
