How to integrate Box MCP with Hermes

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 Box 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 Box 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

2. Authenticate

Once the CLI is installed, ask Hermes to authenticate with Composio.

3. Connect to Box

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

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

5. Done!

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

The Box MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Box account. It provides structured and secure access to your files and folders, so your agent can perform actions like sharing files, managing classifications, applying watermarks, and controlling collaboration on your behalf.

File sharing and collaboration: Instantly add or manage shared links for files, folders, or web links, making it easy to collaborate securely with others.
Automated classification management: Let your agent add, initialize, or update file and folder classifications to enforce security or organizational policies.
Watermarking and content protection: Apply or update watermarks on files to safeguard sensitive information and manage compliance.
Group and user management: Have your agent add users to groups or update user avatars to streamline administrative tasks within your team.
Domain and access control: Automatically update the list of allowed collaboration domains, ensuring only trusted domains can access your resources.

Way Forward

With Box 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.

If you run into trouble or want to share what you've built, join the community or check out the Docs for deeper configuration options.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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

Karan skipped his own birthday party to fix our critical issue. It was 10pm and he diverted his Waymo to help us instead. This really sets the bar — it shows the commitment you need when users rely on your software.

A lot of students tell us that the moment their connected tools start talking to each other inside Opennote feels almost magical. The agent just knows them, and it's immensely helped keep new users on the platform.

Abhi Arya

Co-founder, Opennote

We chose Composio over Pipedream because it delivered depth where it mattered — niche tools and tricky edge cases other platforms simply ignored. That gave us confidence to scale without compromising.

As a solo builder, shipping fast is life or death. The only way I can outcompete incumbents is by outmanoeuvring them. Getting bogged down managing agent auth would have been a death sentence.

Ryan Yu

Founder, Extra Thursday

Before Composio, adding tool integrations was slow and resource-intensive. Each one could take weeks of engineering time, and maintaining them meant constantly keeping up with API changes.
