### Description (declared)

# hermes-mcp

> An MCP server that lets **Claude Desktop** and **Claude.ai (web + mobile)** — and any other MCP client that supports static OAuth credentials — delegate tasks to a local **[Hermes Agent](https://github.com/hermes-agent/hermes-agent)** running on your own hardware. (See [Client compatibility](#client-compatibility) for the current matrix; Codex CLI and Cursor are tracked for future support pending Dynamic Client Registration.)

Use Claude (or another supported MCP client) as your daily chat. When you ask for something Hermes is built for — scheduling cron jobs, browser automation, email, document creation, persistent skills, WhatsApp/Slack messaging — your client calls Hermes through this bridge.
