Hermes Agent + MagicSlides MCP

Make a PowerPoint with Hermes Agent

Hermes Agent runs all the time, so it can rebuild a deck on a schedule. Here it made a 5-slide sponsor media kit for a fictional maker creator, the kind of deck it can refresh at the start of each month.

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.
