Hermes is an AI coding agent that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP). You can connect FetchLayer’s Twitter/X MCP server to give Hermes access to tweet search, profile lookup, and follower data.


Prerequisites

  • Hermes Agent installed and configured
  • A FetchLayer API key — get one free (no credit card)

Setup

Add the FetchLayer MCP server to your Hermes configuration. Hermes uses the standard MCP config format:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fetchlayer": {
      "url": "https://mcp.fetchlayer.dev",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk-your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace sk-your-api-key with your key from the FetchLayer dashboard.

Add this to your Hermes MCP configuration file or settings, then restart the agent.


Try it out

Ask Hermes:

Search X/Twitter for “best database for side projects” and summarize what developers recommend.

The agent calls FetchLayer’s search endpoint and returns structured Twitter/X data.

More examples:

  • “What are people saying about Rust on X/Twitter this month?”
  • “Get the profile and recent tweets from @rauchg”
  • “Scrape replies to this tweet and find the most liked opinions”
  • “Get verified followers of @openai”

Available tools

All 10 FetchLayer Twitter/X endpoints are available: search, tweet detail, replies, user profiles, user tweets, followers, following, verified followers, and more. See the full endpoint list.
