## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Ably to the OpenAI Agents SDK using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Ably agent that can list all active channels and their details, get message history from 'support-chat' channel, show presence history for 'live-event' channel through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your OpenAI Agents SDK agent real control over a Ably account through Composio's Ably MCP server.
Before we dive in, let's take a quick look at the key ideas and tools involved.

## What is OpenAI Agents SDK?

The OpenAI Agents SDK is a lightweight framework for building AI agents that can use tools and maintain conversation state. It provides a simple interface for creating agents with hosted MCP tool support.
Key features include:
- Hosted MCP Tools: Connect to external services through hosted MCP endpoints
- SQLite Sessions: Persist conversation history across interactions
- Simple API: Clean interface with Agent, Runner, and tool configuration
- Streaming Support: Real-time response streaming for interactive applications

## What is the Ably MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Ably MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Ably account. It provides structured and secure access to your real-time messaging infrastructure, so your agent can manage channels, monitor presence, analyze usage, and handle messaging workflows for your applications.
- Channel management and creation: Seamlessly create, initialize, or retrieve real-time messaging channels so your agent can orchestrate chat, data sync, and collaboration features on demand.
- Presence tracking and analytics: Ask your agent to query current presence states or review historical presence data across multiple channels, gaining insights into user activity and engagement patterns.
- Message history and audit: Retrieve detailed message histories from any channel, enabling your agent to audit communication, recover missed messages, or analyze message flows for debugging and compliance.
- Push notification subscription management: Let your agent list, manage, or unsubscribe devices from push notification channels, ensuring targeted and controlled delivery of real-time alerts to clients.
- Application statistics and monitoring: Have your agent fetch in-depth usage metrics—like message counts, channel activity, and API request stats—so you can monitor health, optimize performance, and manage resources with confidence.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ABLY_BATCH_PRESENCE` | Query Batch Presence | This tool enables querying the presence states of multiple channels in a single API request. The API retrieves the member presence details of the specified channels in parallel. |
| `ABLY_BATCH_PRESENCE_HISTORY` | Query Batch Presence History | This tool enables querying presence history for multiple channels in a single API request. It uses the GET endpoint at https://rest.ably.io/presence to retrieve the member presence history details of the specified channels in parallel. |
| `ABLY_DELETE_CHANNEL_SUBSCRIPTION` | Delete Channel Subscription | This tool allows you to unsubscribe devices or clients from push notifications for specific channels. The operation is asynchronous, so immediate requests after deletion may briefly still return the subscription. |
| `ABLY_GET_CHANNEL_DETAILS` | Get Channel Details | This tool retrieves metadata and details for a specific channel in Ably. It returns a ChannelDetails object containing information about the channel's status, occupancy, and other metadata. The endpoint provides visibility into channel activity, including metrics such as connections, presence, publishers, and subscribers, and requires appropriate permissions. |
| `ABLY_GET_CHANNEL_HISTORY` | Get Channel History | This tool retrieves the message history for a specified Ably channel. It uses the GET /channels/{channelId}/messages endpoint to return a paginated list of messages in chronological order, subject to parameters such as 'channelId', 'limit', 'direction', 'start', and 'end'. The tool is useful for auditing, recovering missed messages, analyzing channel activity, and debugging message flows. Authentication is required via basic or token authentication. |
| `ABLY_GET_CHANNEL_PRESENCE` | Get Channel Presence | Tool to obtain the set of members currently present for a channel. Use when you need to check which clients are currently connected and active on a specific Ably channel. |

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Ably MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Ably. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Ably operations on your behalf through a secure, permission-based interface.
With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster.

## Step-by-step Guide

### 1. Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:
- Composio API Key and OpenAI API Key
- Primary know-how of OpenAI Agents SDK
- A live Ably project
- Some knowledge of Python or Typescript

### 1. Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key
- Go to the [OpenAI dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys) and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider.
- Keep the API key safe.
Composio API Key
- Log in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs).
- Go to Settings and copy your API key.

### 2. Install dependencies

Install the Composio SDK and the OpenAI Agents SDK.
```python
pip install composio_openai_agents openai-agents python-dotenv
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai-agents @openai/agents dotenv
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file and add your OpenAI and Composio API keys.
```bash
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...your-api-key
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-api-key
USER_ID=composio_user@gmail.com
```

### 4. Import dependencies

What's happening:
- You're importing all necessary libraries.
- The Composio and OpenAIAgentsProvider classes are imported to connect your OpenAI agent to Composio tools like Ably.
```python
import asyncio
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

from composio import Composio
from composio_openai_agents import OpenAIAgentsProvider
from agents import Agent, Runner, HostedMCPTool, SQLiteSession
```

```typescript
import 'dotenv/config';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIAgentsProvider } from '@composio/openai-agents';
import { Agent, hostedMcpTool, run, OpenAIConversationsSession } from '@openai/agents';
import * as readline from 'readline';
```

### 5. Set up the Composio instance

No description provided.
```python
load_dotenv()

api_key = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
user_id = os.getenv("USER_ID")

if not api_key:
    raise RuntimeError("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key")

# Initialize Composio
composio = Composio(api_key=api_key, provider=OpenAIAgentsProvider())
```

```typescript
dotenv.config();

const composioApiKey = process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY;
const userId = process.env.USER_ID;

if (!composioApiKey) {
  throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key');
}
if (!userId) {
  throw new Error('USER_ID is not set');
}

// Initialize Composio
const composio = new Composio({
  apiKey: composioApiKey,
  provider: new OpenAIAgentsProvider(),
});
```

### 6. Create a Tool Router session

What is happening:
- You give the Tool Router the user id and the toolkits you want available. Here, it is only ably.
- The router checks the user's Ably connection and prepares the MCP endpoint.
- The returned session.mcp.url is the MCP URL that your agent will use to access Ably.
- This approach keeps things lightweight and lets the agent request Ably tools only when needed during the conversation.
```python
# Create a Ably Tool Router session
session = composio.create(
    user_id=user_id,
    toolkits=["ably"]
)

mcp_url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
// Create Tool Router session for Ably
const session = await composio.create(userId as string, {
  toolkits: ['ably'],
});
const mcpUrl = session.mcp.url;
```

### 7. Configure the agent

No description provided.
```python
# Configure agent with MCP tool
agent = Agent(
    name="Assistant",
    model="gpt-5",
    instructions=(
        "You are a helpful assistant that can access Ably. "
        "Help users perform Ably operations through natural language."
    ),
    tools=[
        HostedMCPTool(
            tool_config={

                "require_approval": "never",
            }
        )
    ],
)
```

```typescript
// Configure agent with MCP tool
const agent = new Agent({
  name: 'Assistant',
  model: 'gpt-5',
  instructions:
    'You are a helpful assistant that can access Ably. Help users perform Ably operations through natural language.',
  tools: [
    hostedMcpTool({
      serverLabel: 'tool_router',
      serverUrl: mcpUrl,
      headers: { 'x-api-key': composioApiKey },
      requireApproval: 'never',
    }),
  ],
});
```

### 8. Start chat loop and handle conversation

        if user_input.lower() in {"exit", "quit", "q"}:
            print("Goodbye!")
            break

        result = await Runner.run(
            agent,

## Conclusion

This was a starter code for integrating Ably MCP with OpenAI Agents SDK to build a functional AI agent that can interact with Ably.
Key features:
- Hosted MCP tool integration through Composio's Tool Router
- SQLite session persistence for conversation history
- Simple async chat loop for interactive testing
You can extend this by adding more toolkits, implementing custom business logic, or building a web interface around the agent.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Ably MCP?

With a standalone Ably MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Ably tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Ably and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes, you can. OpenAI Agents SDK fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Ably tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Ably while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Ably scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Ably data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
