How It Works

Uses Composio Tool Router:

You ask Claude to do something
Tool Router finds the right tool (1000+ options)
OAuth handled automatically
Action executes and returns result

Code

from composio import Composio
from claude_agent_sdk.client import ClaudeSDKClient
from claude_agent_sdk.types import ClaudeAgentOptions
import os

composio = Composio(api_key=os.environ["COMPOSIO_API_KEY"])
session = composio.create(user_id="user_123")

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    system_prompt="You can take actions in external apps.",
    mcp_servers={
        "composio": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": session.mcp.url,
            "headers": {"x-api-key": os.environ["COMPOSIO_API_KEY"]},
        }
    },
)

async with ClaudeSDKClient(options) as client:
    await client.query("Send Slack message to #general: Hello!")

Auth Flow

First time using an app:

To send emails, I need Gmail access.
Authorize here: https://...
Say "connected" when done.

Connection persists after that.

Framework Support

Framework	Install
Claude Agent SDK	`pip install composio claude-agent-sdk`
OpenAI Agents	`pip install composio openai-agents`
Vercel AI	`npm install @composio/core @composio/vercel`
LangChain	`pip install composio-langchain`
Any MCP Client	Use `session.mcp.url`

Troubleshooting

Auth required → Click link, authorize, say "connected"
Action failed → Check permissions in target app
Tool not found → Be specific: "Slack #general" not "send message"
