What Hermes Agent can do with LotsTeam

Once connected, Hermes Agent can:

  • Read feedback posts, comment on them, merge duplicates and log new ones, such as a request you heard on a sales call.
  • Create and update tasks, assign them to people in your workspace, comment on them and link each one to the posts that asked for it.
  • Read support messages and draft replies. A reply goes to the customer only when you say so.
  • Draft, update and publish changelog entries, and email the people whose posts asked for the change.
  • Set up a project and connect a custom domain to its public portal.

The LotsTeam dashboard runs the same workspace: feedback board, task board, support inbox, changelog and team. Your agent for speed, the dashboard for control, and every change your agent makes shows up there.

You need

  • Hermes Agent with MCP support
  • A LotsTeam API key
  • A LotsTeam account. You can create one during sign-in.

Connect Hermes Agent to LotsTeam

  1. Add the HTTP server

    Merge this server into mcp_servers in ~/.hermes/config.yaml. Store LOTSTEAM_API_KEY privately in ~/.hermes/.env; Hermes resolves the environment reference when it connects. Create the key at https://www.lotstech.com/api.

    mcp_servers: lots-team: url: "https://api.lots.team/mcp" headers: Authorization: "Bearer ${LOTSTEAM_API_KEY}"
  2. Restart Hermes

    Restart your Hermes session to load the server and its tools.

  3. Check the tools

    Ask your agent “List my LotsTeam organizations and projects” before asking it to change anything.

What to ask next

  • “What did users ask for this week? Group it and open tasks for the top three.”
  • “Draft replies to every unanswered support message. I will review before you send.”
  • “We shipped dark mode. Write the changelog entry and publish it.”
  • “Log this request from my sales call as a post: exports to CSV, asked by Acme.”

Hermes Agent and LotsTeam: questions

How do I connect Hermes Agent to LotsTeam?

Follow the Hermes Agent setup above to add https://api.lots.team/mcp. Configure your LotsTeam API key using the credential settings shown. Then ask “List my LotsTeam organizations and projects”.

Why does Hermes need an API key for LotsTeam?

Hermes connects with a Bearer header, so it uses a LotsTeam API key instead of the browser sign-in. Create one at https://www.lotstech.com/api and keep it in ~/.hermes/.env, never in the config file.

Do I need an API key to use LotsTeam with Hermes Agent?

Yes. Create one at https://www.lotstech.com/api and keep it out of chats, logs and committed files. Where Hermes Agent offers sign-in, use that instead.

What does LotsTeam cost?

Current plans and prices are on https://lots.team/pricing. Your agent’s own plan or usage fees are separate.

Does my agent act as me in LotsTeam?

Yes. Your agent signs in as you and can only do what your role allows. A viewer can read, and a member works in the projects they can open.

Will my agent reply to customers on its own?

Your agent drafts the reply and shows it to you. A reply is emailed to the customer only when you tell it to send.

What stays in the dashboard?

Deleting a project, the widget and billing stay in the dashboard, and an agent cannot transfer ownership of your workspace.
