Give Hermes Agent workflows an economic control plane
Hermes Agent is built for persistent, skillful agent workflows. SatGate adds the missing economic firewall: per-agent budgets, MCP tool cost policy, scoped credentials, revocation, and audit before upstream APIs or tools execute.
Why Hermes Agent workflows need request-path economics
Persistent agents can learn patterns, reuse skills, chain tools, and act across sessions. That is powerful — and it makes static API keys and delayed spend dashboards a bad control model.
SatGate sits between Hermes Agent and upstream APIs, MCP servers, model providers, or paid resources. Every request gets an economic decision before access is granted.
Teams can start in Observe mode to map real agent/tool spend, then move to Control policies for budgets, scopes, expiry, revocation, and per-tool limits.
What this prevents
- Skill or workflow loops that silently burn paid model/API budget.
- Broad API keys inherited by autonomous tools without expiry or spend caps.
- MCP tool calls with no per-tool pricing, risk tier, audit field, or kill switch.
- Persistent sessions accumulating spend faster than finance or engineering can react.
Controls SatGate adds around Hermes Agent
Budget before tool calls
Check session budget, per-tool price, request ceiling, and route policy before Hermes Agent forwards a paid call.
Scoped capabilities
Replace broad static keys with expiring, revocable credentials constrained by route, MCP tool, calls, delegation, and spend.
Revocation and kill switches
Stop a risky skill, workflow, tool, or session immediately without rotating every shared API secret.
MCP and API governance
Apply one economic policy across MCP servers, internal APIs, model routes, data tools, and paid resources.
Hermes Agent governance FAQ
Can SatGate govern Hermes Agent MCP tools?
Yes. SatGate can sit between Hermes Agent workflows and MCP servers or upstream APIs to enforce budgets, allowed tools, scoped credentials, revocation, and Evidence Packs before tool calls execute.
Why does a self-improving agent need economic governance?
Persistent or learning agents can reuse skills, retry workflows, call tools, and delegate work over time. SatGate adds request-path economic policy so those actions have budgets, scopes, expiry, and kill switches.
Does SatGate replace Hermes Agent?
No. Hermes Agent remains the agent workflow. SatGate adds the economic control plane around MCP tools, APIs, model routes, paid data sources, and credentials.
Hermes Agent can use MCP. SatGate makes MCP economically safe.
Put SatGate in front of paid MCP servers, model routes, data APIs, and internal tools so Hermes Agent can act autonomously without receiving a blank check.
