Connect Hermes
Paste a prompt into Hermes, or run the add command and sign in.
Recommended: let Hermes set it up
Paste this into Hermes. It adds the AutoBacklinks server and walks you through sign-in.
Paste into Hermes
Help me connect AutoBacklinks. 1. Add the MCP server: `hermes mcp add autobacklinks --url https://mcp.autobacklinks.ai --auth oauth` 2. Run `hermes mcp login autobacklinks` and send me the login URL immediately so I can finish it in my browser. 3. Wait for me to finish sign-in in the browser. Do not ask for an API key; sign-in is OAuth. 4. Call list_websites and name my sites. 5. Tell me if AutoBacklinks is connected and ready. If not, tell me what failed. If you cannot add an MCP server here, stop and tell me to use the manual setup instead.
Alternative: add the server yourself
Run the add command once, then the sign-in command.
1. Add the server in Hermes:
Terminal
hermes mcp add autobacklinks --url https://mcp.autobacklinks.ai --auth oauth
2. If Hermes asks you to sign in:
Sign in
hermes mcp login autobacklinks
Check it worked
Paste this into Hermes. It confirms the server can see your account, not just that it was added.
Paste into Hermes
Use the AutoBacklinks MCP server you just added and call list_websites. If sign-in is needed, send me the login URL and wait for me to finish in the browser. Do not ask for an API key. Then name my sites and tell me if AutoBacklinks is connected and ready. If not, tell me what failed.
What you can do
Once connected, the assistant can add sites, find prospects, run campaigns, review drafts, send, and answer replies. Reads are free. Anything that spends credits or sends email waits for your yes. New campaigns hold every draft for review.
Things to try
- Start a weekly guest post campaign for Rising Trends. Hold every draft for my review.
- Scan my competitors for guest post prospects and drop every news site.
- Show me the drafts that are ready for DataFast and read me the three best ones.
- Which replies came in this week, and which ones ask for money?
- How is Rising Trends doing this month across every campaign?
- Add example.com to my account and pick the best five competitors.
- How many credits did I spend from chat this month?
Troubleshooting
- Sign-in never starts. Run
hermes mcp login autobacklinksand leave it running until you finish the browser window. - MCP shows no tools. Confirm
~/.hermes/config.yamlhas url andauth: oauth(no API key), then run /reload-mcp or restart Hermes. - It worked before and stopped. The sign-in expired. Run
hermes mcp login autobacklinksagain.
