Setup
How to add the Xholic MCP server to Hermes Agent
Connect your X account to Xholic first (one click with X's official sign-in, during the free trial). Then:
Step 1: Add Xholic
Run this where Hermes runs.
Terminal hermes mcp add xholic --url https://api.xholic.ai/mcp --auth oauthStep 2: Sign in
Start hermes chat. It opens your browser to approve Xholic: pick what Hermes may do and which X accounts it can use.
Step 3: Ask Hermes
Ask: "Use Xholic: what should I post today?"
Hermes Agent · with Xholic
Use Xholic to review my last 30 posts, then save what works for me as a skill you use every time you draft.
- → whats_worked_for_me
- → get_analytics
- → add_note
Your questions and build logs get 2.3× your usual replies; long announcements underperform. I saved this as a drafting skill and a note in Xholic's memory, so every draft starts from it.

FAQs
Hermes Agent and Xholic: questions
Setup, safety and pricing for using Xholic in Hermes Agent.
Can Hermes run Xholic on a server?
Yes. Sign in once where you can open a browser, or use an Xholic API key as a header in ~/.hermes/config.yaml for a headless server.
Does Hermes need the MCP toolset turned on?
Yes. Make sure mcp is in the toolsets Hermes loads; otherwise it won't see Xholic's tools.
Is Xholic free to use with Hermes Agent?
Xholic has a 7-day free trial with no card needed. After that, the MCP server, API and CLI are included in every plan, from $19 a month. Hermes Agent does the writing on its own plan, so Xholic doesn't charge for its AI.
Does Hermes Agent need my X password?
No. You connect your X account to Xholic once through X's official sign-in. Hermes Agent then signs in to Xholic through your browser, so it never sees your X password or a key.
Can Hermes Agent post to X without asking me?
Only if you allow it. When you approve Hermes Agent you choose what it can do: read, write drafts and lists, and publish. Untick Publish and it asks you first with a one-click link. In apps that can show a confirmation, every post and DM waits for your yes and shows exactly what goes out. Authentication and permissions
Which X accounts can Hermes Agent use?
