Hermes

Hermes supports adding remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP by URL, with a custom Authorization header. Exact config-key names vary by Hermes version, so treat the field names below as a guide rather than a literal schema — check your version’s MCP settings UI or docs for the precise keys.

Get a Poix Token

If you don’t already have one, create a poix- Token in the Dashboard. See Authentication for details.

Open your MCP server settings

In Hermes, go to the MCP servers section of settings and choose to add a new remote server.

Add the Poix server

Enter https://mcp.poix.io as the server URL, and add an HTTP header:

Authorization: Bearer poix-…

Replace poix-… with your actual Token.

If your version only supports local server commands

If your Hermes version doesn’t support remote HTTP servers directly, it can bridge to Poix’s remote server using mcp-remote:

mcp-config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "poix": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.poix.io",
        "--header",
        "Authorization: Bearer poix-…"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Verify the connection

Save and reconnect — poix should show as connected with its tools listed. You can now ask Hermes to search YouTube, pull video or channel details, or fetch captions directly.
