How to integrate Inworld AI 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 Inworld AI 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 Inworld AI 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 Inworld AI

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

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

5. Done!

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

The Inworld AI MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Inworld AI account. It provides structured and secure access to speech, voices, models, and embeddings, so your agent can synthesize speech, transcribe audio, explore voices, compare models, and create text embeddings on your behalf.

  • Speech synthesis: Have your agent turn short text into spoken audio using an available Inworld voice.
  • Audio transcription: Direct your agent to transcribe short audio files and return the final text with timestamps and usage details.
  • Voice discovery and previews: Let the agent browse available voices by language or other preferences and generate MP3 previews before you choose one.
  • Model comparison: Instruct your agent to list supported models and compare their pricing, modalities, context sizes, and output limits.
  • Text embeddings: Have your agent generate a complete embedding vector for each text input using an Inworld-hosted model.

Way Forward

With Inworld AI 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 Inworld AI action and event your agent gets out of the box.

Create Embeddings

Generate one complete embedding vector per input text with an Inworld-hosted embedding model.

Get Voice Preview

Generate the provider-selected, unmetered MP3 preview for a voice and return it as a downloadable file.

List Models

List Inworld-supported models and the pricing, modality, context, and output limits needed to choose a model.

List Voices

Return one page of voices available for preview or speech synthesis, with optional filtering, language selection, and sorting.

Synthesize Speech

Synthesize short text with an Inworld voice and return the complete audio as a downloadable file.

Transcribe Audio

Synchronously transcribe a short audio file and return the final transcript, timestamps, and usage.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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