A considered
connection.
A personal Hermes Agent integration that brings Google Drive context into an owner-directed AI workflow.
Access, explained
Broad permission.
Deliberate use.
Hermes is self-hosted and operated by Michael Mulcahy for personal use. It uses Google OAuth to connect to the owner’s Drive. This public website explains that connection; it does not provide sign-in, access to the agent, or a view into private files.
Google Drive full read/write access
The requested scope is https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive. It permits viewing, creating, editing, and deleting Drive files accessible to the connected account, subject to that account’s permissions.
On-demand retrieval and explicit approval for modifications are workflow requirements, not restrictions enforced by this OAuth scope. The integration is not limited to a selected folder or only files it creates.
How it is intended to work
Context with clear boundaries.
Keep approval explicit.
Creating, editing, moving, sharing, or deleting Drive content requires the owner’s explicit approval.
Understand where it goes.
Retrieved content and prompts may be sent to configured AI providers. Self-hosting does not mean all processing stays local.
Questions & control
Know the connection.
