Setup guide

Connect Hermes Agent to your bank accounts

Hermes reads its MCP servers from a config file. One entry turns your accounts, balances and transactions into tools the agent can call.

Before you start

  1. 01Create a BankingMCP account. The first 7 days are free and need no payment details.
  2. 02Connect your bank through its own PSD2 web form. Your banking login stays with your bank.
  3. 03Add Hermes Agent as an assistant to get a personal MCP address for it.

Setup steps

  1. 01Copy your personal MCP address from BankingMCP.
  2. 02Add the entry shown here to ~/.hermes/config.yaml.
  3. 03Run /reload-mcp in Hermes or restart it. The tools appear as mcp_bankingmcp_….
~/.hermes/config.yaml
mcp_servers:
  bankingmcp:
    url: "https://banking-mcp.com/api/mcp/<your-token>"

This address is an example. You get your own after signing up, and it works like a password.

What Hermes Agent can do once it's connected

list_accounts
Lists your connected accounts with bank, IBAN and balance.
get_balances
Totals across all accounts, per currency, plus each account's balance.
search_transactions
Finds transactions by account, date range, merchant or purpose, income or spending and amount, with totals.
list_transactions
Loads all transactions page by page, optionally per account and date range, so your assistant can sort through them itself, e.g. for rent payments.
refresh_accounts
Fetches current data from your banks before answering.

These tools only read. Nothing can move money, and payments are not part of this connection.

Questions about Hermes Agent and BankingMCP

Does Hermes Agent see my banking login?
No. You log in at your bank in its own web form. BankingMCP never receives your PIN or password, and neither does Hermes Agent.
Can Hermes Agent move money?
No. This connection is read-only: listing accounts, balances and transactions. There is no payment tool. Payments are planned as a separate, explicitly approved step.
What happens if I want to cut off access?
Each assistant has its own address. Deactivate or remove the one you gave Hermes Agent and it stops working immediately, without touching your other assistants.
