Ollang MCP in Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent is an open-source agent from Nous Research. With Ollang MCP, Hermes can manage localization work and translation orders from a terminal-based workflow.

Setup

1

Install Hermes Agent

Install Hermes Agent using the standard installation instructions. MCP support ships with the standard install.
2

Add Ollang MCP

Edit ~/.hermes/config.yaml and add Ollang under mcp_servers:
~/.hermes/config.yaml
3

Authenticate

Start Hermes and make a request that uses Ollang. On the first connection, Hermes opens a browser for the remote OAuth flow. Complete Ollang sign-in and return to Hermes.
4

Reload configuration

After editing the configuration, run /reload-mcp in Hermes. You can restrict the server to selected tools with tools: { include: [...] }.

Use Cases

Localize an application release

Prepare subtitles and dubbing for a video

Run a focused quality check

Hermes can migrate MCP servers from Claude Code with hermes import-agent claude-code, which reads ~/.claude.json and its mcpServers configuration. Use the per-server tools filter when a Hermes workflow only needs a small part of Ollang.
