Speed Run — From Zero to Odoo-Connected Agent

-

We published a full step-by-step walkthrough. It takes under 10 Minutes from signup to your first Odoo query:

Integration Options

+

Hermes Agent supports two ways to connect to your Odoo instance. Both work — pick the one that fits your architecture.

+ +

Option 1 — Direct API (Recommended for Odoo-Only Setups)

+

We published a full step-by-step walkthrough for the direct approach. It takes under 10 minutes from signup to your first Odoo query:

+

In two prompts you go live:

+

Option 2 — Model Context Protocol (MCP)

+

For multi-tool agents that talk to Odoo alongside GitHub, Slack, Jira, or other services through one unified protocol. An MCP server sits between Hermes and Odoo as a translation layer:

+ +
+ Hermes Agent → MCP Protocol → mcp-server-odoo → Odoo XML-RPC +
+ +

Set up takes ~5 minutes: clone the MCP server repo (mcp-server-odoo), set env vars with your Odoo credentials, start the server, and register it with Hermes via hermes mcp add. Your agent then discovers tools like search_records and create_record automatically.

+

Read the MCP Integration Guide →

+ +

Which to choose? Direct API is faster and simpler for single-ERP setups. MCP shines when your agent already uses MCP for other backends and you want one protocol to rule them all. You can also run both — Hermes Agent supports mixed setups where MCP tools and direct integrations coexist in the same session.

Why Odoo + Hermes Agent?

Odoo is powerful but navigating its many modules (CRM, Sales, Inventory, Accounting) takes clicks. Hermes Agent gives you a single text interface to all of it — ask in English, get answers in seconds. Combined with web search and email tools, your agent becomes an autonomous business operations assistant.
