Built an Enterprise Analysis Agent with Hermes + MCP + Angular (No-RAG, Local-First)

What I built

I built Analysis Agent Hermes: a local-first enterprise assistant that can answer questions about:

• Budget analysis and travel spend alerts
• HR analytics
• Appraisal workflows
• Dependency vulnerability tracking

The stack combines Hermes Agent for orchestration, MCP servers for tool access, and an Angular dashboard for chat + tabular analysis.

Demo

• GitHub repo: https://github.com/DevInder1/Analysis-agent-hermes

How it works

Architecture

• Hermes Agent as core agent runtime
• FastMCP tools expose business operations:
  • query_budget_status
  • search_hr_policies
  • read_travel_guidelines
  • get_appraisal_status
  • list_pending_appraisals
  • vulnerability scan tools
• Backend local API (FastAPI + SQLite) for dashboard pages
• Angular UI with:
  • Chat panel (SSE)
  • Data grid for structured output
  • Dedicated pages for HR analytics, vulnerabilities, appraisals

Why this is meaningful Hermes usage

Hermes is not just used for text generation — it orchestrates real tool-backed workflows:

• Selects MCP tools based on user intent
• Handles multi-step analysis requests
• Returns structured results for UI rendering

Key features

1. Budget & travel intelligence

   • Detects high travel spend against project budget
   • Flags “At Risk” projects

2. HR analytics

   • Employee training/completion analytics
   • Department-level views

3. Appraisal process tracking

   • Self-review + manager-review flow
   • Pending appraisal visibility by cycle

4. Security scanning

   • Dependency vulnerability scan support
   • Persisted scan history for review

5. Realistic mock data included

   • Projects, employees, appraisals, project notes
   • Makes all current functionality testable end-to-end

Tech stack

• Hermes Agent
• MCP (FastMCP, Python)
• FastAPI
• SQLite (PostgreSQL-ready abstraction)
• Angular 20 + AG Grid
• Ollama (local model runtime)

Setup

bash
# 1) Reset and seed realistic mock data
bash scripts/reset-mock-data.sh

# 2) Start local API
bash scripts/start-local-api.sh

# 3) Start Hermes gateway + register MCP servers
bash scripts/start-hermes-gateway.sh
bash scripts/register-mcp-servers.sh

# 4) Start frontend
cd frontend/enterprise-dashboard
npm start


Example prompts
“Show budget status for all projects”
“Which projects have travel budget alerts?”
“Search HR policies for annual leave”
“List pending appraisals”
“Check dependency vulnerabilities”
