hermes-docs-mcp
Local MCP server that indexes the Hermes Agent documentation from the local
install (~/.hermes/hermes-agent/website/docs) so every agent on this machine
can consult docs that match the installed version — offline, with fast
search.
Tools
search_hermes_docs(query, limit)— ranked search over all ~435 doc pagesget_hermes_doc(slug)— full page as compact markdown (accepts bare slugs and full /docs/ URLs)list_hermes_docs(section?, limit)— list indexed pages per section
Related MCP server: mcp-doc-search
Why local
The docs in website/docs/ belong to the exact git commit installed under
~/.hermes/hermes-agent/, and hermes update refreshes them automatically.
Search results include the installed commit so agents know which version the
docs describe. Falls back to GitHub (NousResearch/hermes-agent main) when no
local checkout exists.
Development
npm install
npm test # node:test + tsx
npm run build # tsc -> dist/Override the docs source with HERMES_DOCS_DIR=/path/to/docs.
Registered in ~/.hermes/config.yaml and every profile config as
mcp_servers.hermes-docs (stdio, node dist/cli.js).
