Give your agent this one instruction

You end up with more than a connector: the busabase skill carries the whole approval-first workflow, the CLI, and the full API — available in every future session without re-pasting anything.

Asks first

Busabase Cloud or Personal Desktop — your call, before anything happens.

Connects

Signs you in and stores the credential itself. No API key to copy by hand.

Seeds a Base

Creates and fills your first Base, so the workspace is not an empty screen.

Installs the skills

busabase and busabase-app-creator become permanent, for every session after this.

For this agent

Hermes has both skills and terminal tools. Let it follow SETUP_SKILL.md in a trusted project and review its requested permissions.

Prefer a connector?

If you would rather wire Busabase in as MCP tools than let the agent install a skill, use the server URL below.

Install Hermes Agent, launch it in a trusted project, and ask: Read https://busabase.com/SETUP_SKILL.md and set up Busabase for me. Review the commands and complete authentication. Then ask Hermes to verify the active Busabase account. Its native MCP client can also use remote HTTP OAuth with dynamic registration.

Known gotchas

OAuth tokens are written under ~/.hermes/mcp-tokens/. Treat that directory as sensitive. Remote OAuth uses browser authorization, PKCE, refresh tokens, and dynamic client registration.
