With its recent AI makeover, it can do more than just help you write code. You can connect your applications to it and let LLMs automate many of the mundane tasks in your workflow. In this guide, I will explain how to connect Agenty with VS Code in the most secure and robust way possible via Composio. ## Also integrate Agenty with - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/chatgpt) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/codex) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/cursor) - [OpenCode](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/opencode) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### Why use Composio? Composio provides: - Access to 1,000+ managed apps from a single MCP endpoint. This makes it convenient for agents to run cross-app workflows. - 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. - Large tool response handling outside the LLM context. This minimizes context bloat from large tool responses. - Dynamic just-in-time access to thousands of tools across hundreds of apps. Composio loads the tools your agent needs, so LLMs are not overwhelmed by tools they do not need. ## Connect Agenty to VS Code ### Integrate Agenty MCP with VS Code ### 1. Install with one click Click the button below to add Composio to VS Code. You will be prompted to authorize. This requires VS Code 1.99+ with GitHub Copilot. [+Install in VS Code](vscode:mcp/install?%7B%22name%22%3A%22composio%22%2C%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fconnect.composio.dev%2Fmcp%22%7D) ### 2. Or add manually Open or create .vscode/mcp.json in your project root and add the following configuration: ```bash { "servers": { "composio": { "type": "http", "url": "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp" } } } ``` ## What is the Agenty MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Agenty MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Agenty account. It provides structured and secure access to your web scraping agents and automation tools, so your agent can perform actions like creating, managing, cloning, and monitoring scraping agents, as well as handling API keys and templates—all on your behalf. - Agent creation and configuration: Instantly create new scraping or automation agents, set up their configurations, and optionally auto-start them—all without manual coding. - Clone and update agents: Duplicate existing agents to streamline workflows or update agent settings to refine your data extraction processes. - Fetch and manage agents: List all active agents in your account, retrieve details for any agent, and organize your entire automation fleet from a single place. - Template selection and management: Browse public agent templates or sample agents, making it easy to kickstart new projects or standardize scraping tasks. - API key management: Create, download, or delete API keys for secure programmatic access and efficient credential management, keeping your automation environment safe and organized. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `AGENTY_AGENTS_CLONE_BY_ID` | Clone Agent

app actions you authorize, directly from your coding workflow. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward Now that Agenty is connected, extend your setup by connecting the other apps you already use every day, so your agent can run true cross-app workflows end to end. - Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically. - Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works. - Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs. - Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps. - Connect HubSpot or Salesforce to log customer context, update records, and draft follow-ups. Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single MCP endpoint, your agent can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation. ## How to build Agenty MCP Agent with another framework - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/chatgpt) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/codex) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/cursor) - [OpenCode](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/opencode) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/agenty/framework/crew-ai) ## Related Toolkits - [Excel](https://composio.dev/toolkits/excel) - Microsoft Excel is a robust spreadsheet application for organizing, analyzing, and visualizing data.

With a standalone Agenty MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Agenty tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Agenty and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with VS Code? Yes, you can. VS Code 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 Agenty tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Agenty while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Agenty 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 Agenty data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
