Manage channels, conversations, users and team collaboration within Slack. Send messages, monitor activity and automate communication workflows across workspaces.
Hermes is Nous Research's command-line agent. MCP servers are declared in its YAML config and reloaded without a restart.
This guide connects Slack to Hermes through MewCP, so Hermes can use Slack's 19 tools, like health_check, send_message and read_messages, without your Slack credentials ever reaching the app.
Slack signs in through managed OAuth. MewCP stores the token encrypted, refreshes it before it expires and injects it only at call time. Your agent never holds it, so it can never leak it.

Other clients
Slack works the same way in every client below. Pick yours for its own guide.
Free to start.
Scope access to the exact Slack tools and accounts you allow, work and personal side by side. Anything outside that scope is refused at call time, even when the model asks for it.
Each call is logged: what ran, on which account, and whether it worked. Failures come back structured, so the agent knows whether to retry instead of guessing.
Every app sits behind one secure MCP URL, and there is no server for you to deploy or keep running. Add an integration in the dashboard and it is live on the next call, with no config to change and no new credentials to wire up. Tools load only when a task needs them, so your agent stays fast and focused however many apps you connect.
Edit config.yaml in your Hermes config directory (~/.hermes).
Put this under the top-level "mcp_servers:" key.
