Introduction

OpenClaw is the fastest growing agent harness out there, which can work 24/7 to automate almost any kind of tasks. However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Affinity with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Affinity via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

Why use Composio?

Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:

  • Programmatic tool calling allows LLMs to write its code in a remote workbench to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
  • Handling Large tool responses out of LLM context to minimize context rot.
  • Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 850+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

How to install Affinity with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

Copy the setup prompt from the OpenClaw dashboard
  • Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
  • Authenticate Affinity from the dashboard
  • Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions.

Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin

1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin

bash
openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-plugin

2. Copy the API Key from dashboard.composio.dev

3. Setup OpenClaw Config

openclaw config set plugins.entries.composio.config.consumerKey "ck_your_key_here"

4. Restart OpenClaw

openclaw gateway restart

5. Go to your chat interface and start asking questions.

6. When prompted, authenticate the app and you're all set.

How It Works

The plugin connects to Composio's MCP server at https://connect.composio.dev/mcp and registers all available tools directly into the OpenClaw agent. Tools are called by name — no extra search or execute steps needed.

If a tool returns an auth error, the agent will prompt you to connect that toolkit at dashboard.composio.dev.

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

The Affinity MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Affinity account. It provides structured and secure access to your deal, company, and contact data, so your agent can analyze lists, fetch opportunity details, extract company insights, and organize people or organizations on your behalf.

  • Company data extraction and analysis: Let your agent retrieve detailed company profiles, summarize list entries, and pull custom field data for deeper insights and reporting.
  • Opportunity pipeline management: Automatically fetch and review all ongoing opportunities, track changes, and surface high-priority deals for follow-up.
  • List and view organization: Ask your agent to access entries across lists or saved views, aggregating metadata and field values for efficient CRM workflows.
  • Contact and relationship intelligence: Effortlessly browse, analyze, and summarize person records, including their list memberships, activity, and custom fields.
  • Automated CRM reporting: Generate summaries, export data, and monitor changes across companies, people, and opportunities to keep your pipeline up-to-date and actionable.

Next steps:

  • Try asking OpenClaw to perform various Affinity operations
  • Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits like Calendar, Slack, Notion, etc.
  • Build complex automation scripts that leverage OpenClaw's 24/7 running capabilities

How to build Affinity MCP Agent with another framework

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Affinity MCP?

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

Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenClaw?

Yes, you can. OpenClaw 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 Affinity tools.

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

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Affinity 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 Affinity data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
