Hermes Action Bridge MCP Server
A configurable bridge that lets external agents delegate real-world actions to Hermes Agent without reimplementing Hermes skills, tools, platform integrations, browser automation, cron jobs, or messaging flows. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People who work with agent skills, automation and codex and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.
