How to set up Google Search Console with your Hermes agent

A developer integrated Google Search Console with the Hermes AI agent using an MCP server to automate query monitoring via API, replacing manual dashboard checks. The tutorial covers out-of-the-box functionality and Docker-specific adjustments not documented officially.

I had been monitoring Google Search Console for a while, but the workflow was manual and tedious: open the dashboard, copy the queries, paste them into my agent. It can be done much better. In this tutorial, I show how to connect Search Console directly to Hermes — the AI agent running on my homelab — using an MCP server, so it can read clicks, impressions, and queries via API . I’ll cover both what the creator’s repository already delivers out of the box and the tweaks I had to make to run everything inside Docker, which is where the official documentation stops helping.
