# How to connect Fireworks AI to Hermes Agent (paste one key, 9 tools) > Connect Fireworks AI to Hermes with ClawLink: paste your Fireworks AI key once and 9 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/hermes/fireworks-ai Most guides for giving Hermes Agent Fireworks AI access start with registering your own OAuth app or pasting API keys into env files, then leave the token refresh and tool wiring to you. ClawLink gives Hermes a more practical Fireworks AI setup: pair once in the browser and your always-on Hermes agent can act on Fireworks AI for you, reading and doing real work on your behalf with no auth, token refresh, or tool wiring to build yourself. ## Setup It takes three steps to connect Hermes to Fireworks AI. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to Hermes Agent once. 2. **Connect Fireworks AI** — one-click OAuth in the ClawLink dashboard. 3. **Use it from chat** — ask Hermes Agent in plain English. **Paste this into Hermes to set up ClawLink:** > Set up ClawLink for Hermes and tell me when it's ready. > 1. Install the plugin: `hermes plugins install ClawLink-HQ/hermes-plugin --enable` > 2. Start pairing with `hermes clawlink begin`. It prints an approval link, so show me the link and stop, don't wait. > 3. I'll approve it in my browser, then reply "approved". > 4. When I say approved, finish setup: `hermes clawlink finish` > 5. Then run `hermes clawlink test` and tell me whether ClawLink is ready. **Alternative for any agent (no plugin needed):** if the Hermes Agent plugin route isn't available or doesn't work, any AI agent with shell access can use the ClawLink CLI instead: ```bash npx -y @useclawlink/cli login # sign in via browser — no API key to paste npx -y @useclawlink/cli connect fireworks-ai # connect Fireworks AI (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions fireworks-ai # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run fireworks-ai --input '' # execute (add --confirm for writes) ``` ### Install by command The prompt above walks Hermes through this. By hand, it is four commands and a browser approval: ```bash hermes plugins install ClawLink-HQ/hermes-plugin --enable hermes clawlink begin # prints an approval link — open it and approve hermes clawlink finish # after approving in the browser hermes clawlink test ``` Then connect Fireworks AI in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your Fireworks AI API key once. Verify the connection by asking Hermes: > Pull the relevant data from Fireworks AI, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. ### Using a different agent? The Hermes plugin is one client of ClawLink's MCP server. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or any agent that can run a shell command pairs with the same ClawLink account through the CLI: ```bash npx -y @useclawlink/cli login ``` `login` opens the same browser approval and stores a credential locally. Once Fireworks AI is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 9 Fireworks AI tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Fireworks AI to Hermes Agent and exposes 9 Fireworks AI tools your agent can call over [MCP](https://claw-link.dev/learn/what-is-an-mcp-server), with [hosted auth](https://claw-link.dev/learn/oauth-for-ai-agents) and nothing to run or maintain yourself. Using OpenClaw instead? The [OpenClaw Fireworks AI integration](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/fireworks-ai) works the same way. ## What the Hermes Agent Fireworks AI integration can do 9 Fireworks AI tools are ready for Hermes Agent once the account is connected. ### All 9 Fireworks AI tools for Hermes | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Get deployment** `fireworks_ai_get_deployment` | Return configuration and serving status for one Fireworks deployment without scaling or | | **Get model** `fireworks_ai_get_model` | Return metadata and status for one model resource in a Fireworks account; this does not test | | **List accounts** `fireworks_ai_list_accounts` | Return one page of Fireworks accounts accessible to the API key so an agent can obtain account | | **List deployments** `fireworks_ai_list_deployments` | Return one page of deployment resources in a Fireworks account for deployment ID discovery and | | **List models** `fireworks_ai_list_models` | Return one page of model resources in a Fireworks account for model-ID discovery and status | | **Create chat completion** `fireworks_ai_create_chat_completion` | Generate one non-streaming OpenAI-compatible chat completion from role-based messages using a | | **Create embeddings** `fireworks_ai_create_embeddings` | Create embedding vectors for one or more caller-provided inputs using a caller-supplied | | **Generate model response** `fireworks_ai_generate_model_response` | Generate one non-streaming Responses API result, optionally continuing a stored response or | | **Rerank documents** `fireworks_ai_rerank_documents` | Rank a provided document list by relevance to a query using an optional caller-supplied | ## Example prompts **Get Deployment** > Pull the relevant data from Fireworks AI, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Model** > Pull the relevant data from Fireworks AI, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **List Accounts** > List the relevant items in Fireworks AI, group them by priority, and recommend what Hermes should do next. **List Deployments** > List the relevant items in Fireworks AI, group them by priority, and recommend what Hermes should do next. ## ClawLink vs. building it yourself The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual API key setup plus your own token handling, permission troubleshooting, and tool plumbing for Hermes Agent. That is fine if you want to build and maintain the integration yourself. Most teams just want Fireworks AI working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Fireworks AI API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Fireworks AI account becomes available to the agent without you building credential management. | | **Ongoing maintenance** | You own refresh logic, permission debugging, environment config, and every provider-specific edge case for Fireworks AI. | ClawLink handles the repetitive integration plumbing so your team can focus on the workflow instead of the infrastructure. | | **Agent usability** | You still need to expose the right Fireworks AI actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 9 tools for Fireworks AI are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Fireworks AI to AI agents. It is developer infrastructure: Python and TypeScript SDKs, an MCP server, and a catalog past 1,000 apps, aimed at teams shipping agent products. ClawLink is built for Hermes Agent users instead. You install the plugin once, connect Fireworks AI in the browser, and the 9 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Fireworks AI key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

If you ran finish before approving, or the approval link expired, run `hermes clawlink begin` again to get a fresh link. Confirm the plugin was installed with `--enable`, then verify with `hermes clawlink test`. ### Connection succeeds but no tools appear Reconnect Fireworks AI from the dashboard, then start a fresh chat if the runtime still has the old tool catalog loaded. ### "Tool schema not loaded yet" error when calling Fireworks AI tools Fireworks AI tool schemas load on demand the first time a tool runs and are cached after that, so this error usually clears on its own: wait a few seconds and retry the same request. If every Fireworks AI call keeps failing with it in a fresh chat, reconnect from the dashboard, and contact support if it still persists — that pattern points to a configuration problem on our side, not something you can fix by reconnecting again. ### Fireworks AI returns 403 or "permission denied" on one action while others work Two usual causes. The connected account may not have access to the specific workspace, inbox, store, or project in the request — check that first. If access looks right, the agent may have sent a placeholder value (like "YOUR_ID" or an example id from documentation) instead of a real one: ask it to run a list or search tool first, then retry the action with a real id from those results. Most failures at this stage are one of these two, not ClawLink bugs. ### API key setup works but results look incomplete Double-check that the API key for Fireworks AI has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a Hermes Agent Fireworks AI integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect Hermes to Fireworks AI: link your Fireworks AI account once in the browser and Hermes Agent can call the Fireworks AI API through 9 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I connect Fireworks AI to Hermes with ClawLink? Install the plugin with `hermes plugins install ClawLink-HQ/hermes-plugin --enable`, then pair once: run `hermes clawlink begin`, approve the link in your browser, and run `hermes clawlink finish`. Connect Fireworks AI in the dashboard and Hermes can use it from the next message — no config files, and the Fireworks AI key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect Fireworks AI to Hermes Agent? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Fireworks AI in the dashboard, authenticate, and Hermes Agent can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Fireworks AI up myself? The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual API key setup plus your own token handling, permission troubleshooting, and tool plumbing for Hermes Agent. That is fine if you want to build and maintain the integration yourself. Most teams just want Fireworks AI working from chat. ### Hermes paired but still can't use Fireworks AI Pairing is a two-step handshake: run `hermes clawlink begin`, approve the link in your browser, then run `hermes clawlink finish`. If you ran finish before approving, or the approval link expired, run `hermes clawlink begin` again to get a fresh link. Confirm the plugin was installed with `--enable`, then verify with `hermes clawlink test`. ## Related - [DataRobot tools](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/datarobot) — DataRobot is a machine learning platform that automates model building, deployment, and monitoring, enabling organizations to derive predictive insights from large datasets. - [Hermes Chatbotkit integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/chatbotkit) — ChatBotKit is a platform that enables developers to build and manage AI-powered chatbots, offering comprehensive APIs and SDKs for seamless integration into applications. - [Just One API tools](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/just-one-api) — Just One API provides unified access to public social media, creator, entertainment, and ecommerce data across hundreds of metered endpoints.
