Hermes Agent + MagicSlides MCP

Make a document with Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent runs all the time and can do work on a schedule, which suits a weekly digest. With the MagicSlides MCP server, it can write the digest each Friday, save it as a doc, and send you the link over a messaging gateway such as Telegram.

Set up MagicSlides in Hermes Agent (one time)

One command adds the server with OAuth. Hermes opens the login on first use.

Terminal
hermes mcp add magicslides --url https://www.magicslides.app/api/mcp/mcp --auth oauth
~/.hermes/config.yaml (same thing, by hand)
mcp_servers:
  magicslides:
    url: "https://www.magicslides.app/api/mcp/mcp"
    auth: oauth
  1. 1.Run hermes mcp add and approve the MagicSlides login in the browser.
  2. 2.Check it with hermes mcp list.
  3. 3.Message Hermes, or give it a scheduled task, that asks for a deck or doc.

Example: what you type in Hermes Agent

You

Every Friday at 6 pm, write my weekly digest: sales numbers vs last week, emails that need my reply, money due, support themes, next week's calendar and what you moved forward. Save it as a MagicSlides doc and send me the link on Telegram.

Hermes Agent
  • Ran as a scheduled Friday task
  • Gathered the week's numbers, open emails, bills and calendar for next week
  • Wrote the digest with a metrics table, reply list and suggested focus
  • Called create_doc and sent the share link to the Telegram chat

Your weekly digest for 19 October is ready. Orders were up 20% and two wholesale leads need replies, one with a 1 November deadline. Full digest at the link.

FAQ

Can Hermes Agent run the digest without me asking each week?

Yes. Hermes Agent supports cron and scheduled tasks, so the digest can run every Friday on its own.

Where do I get the digest?

Hermes can send the MagicSlides share link to you through a messaging gateway such as Telegram.

Does each week create a new doc?

With create_doc, each run makes a new doc with its own link, so past weeks stay available.

How does Hermes log in to MagicSlides?

The add command uses --auth oauth, so you log in with your MagicSlides account once.
