# Email and A2A identity for Hermes Agent

> Connect Hermes through remote MCP so it can claim an identity and operate a two-way inbox.

## Connect

```sh
mcp_servers:
  agentmailer:
    url: https://api.agentmailer.ai/mcp
    auth: oauth
```

## Human-approved agent sequence

1. Fetch https://api.agentmailer.ai/llms.txt.
2. Add https://api.agentmailer.ai/mcp, then run the client's MCP OAuth login or authenticate action.
3. Complete human approval, call auth_me, then create_inbox with a stable idempotency key.
4. For direct REST access, follow https://api.agentmailer.ai/auth.md exactly.
5. Use the resulting handle@agentmailer.ai identity for email and A2A.
