Hermes with Claude, GPT and Gemini

Connect in three fields

Hermes works with any OpenAI-compatible API. Point it at avots with a base URL, a key and a model.

Setup

BASE_URL=https://api.avots.ai/openai/v1
OPENAI_API_KEY=av_mcp_YOUR_KEY
MODEL=anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6

Hermes ships in a few variants (the Hermes Agent CLI and community desktop forks), and field names differ slightly per build (BASE_URL, API Endpoint, and so on). The constants are always the avots base URL, your av_mcp_ key and a model id; check your build README for the exact label.

Example request

curl https://api.avots.ai/openai/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer av_mcp_YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
  }'

The same key also unlocks MCP tools

Your av_mcp_ key is not only for chat. avots also runs as an MCP server, so Hermes can call avots creative tools, image, video, music, talking avatars, on the same key and the same balance.

Models and prices

Set the model field to any id below, or a lazy name like claude / gpt / gemini that maps to a sensible default.

* Price in ⚡ per 1,000,000 tokens, input / output (1000⚡ ≈ $1). Free models need a positive balance. Full list via GET /openai/v1/models.
