And MCP makes the experience even better. With Altoviz MCP integration, you can draft, triage, summarise emails, and much more, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer. ## Also integrate Altoviz with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/claude-cowork) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/altoviz/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### Why use Composio? Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get: - CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling. - Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise context rot. - Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 870+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need. ## Connect Altoviz to Codex ### How to install Altoviz MCP in Codex ### Run the setup command Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex. ```bash codex mcp add composio --url https://connect.composio.dev/mcp ``` ## What is the Altoviz MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Altoviz MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Altoviz account. It provides structured and secure access to your billing, invoicing, and customer management data, so your agent can manage products, find customers, update records, and retrieve financial information on your behalf. - Product management and creation: Instruct your agent to create new products, update details, or delete products from your Altoviz catalog with ease. - Customer and contact lookup: Effortlessly find customers or contacts by email, enabling quick access to client details and supporting streamlined communication. - Financial classification and VAT management: Let your agent fetch available classifications and VAT rates, ensuring accurate tax handling and financial document setup. - Unit retrieval for transactions: Retrieve all available measurement units in your system, supporting precise product and invoice management. - Customer information updates: Have your agent modify or update customer records, keeping your business data up-to-date without manual intervention. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `ALTOVIZ_CREATE_PRODUCT` | Create Product | Creates a new product in the altoviz system. this tool allows for the independent creation of a product with all necessary details. | | `ALTOVIZ_DELETE_PRODUCT` | Delete Product | This tool allows you to delete an existing product from altoviz. the action permanently removes the product from the system. | | `ALTOVIZ_FIND_CONTACT` | Find Contact by Email | This tool allows searching for contacts in altoviz using an email address. the action is independently executable and returns contact details if found. | | `ALTOVIZ_FIND_CUSTOMER` | Find Customer by Email | This tool allows you to find a customer in altoviz by their email address. this is a standalone action that doesn't require any resource ids or dependencies on other tools. | | `ALTOVIZ_FIND_PRODUCT` | Find Product by Number | This tool allows users to find products in altoviz using the product number. it retrieves detailed product information including id, name, number, description, price, and other relevant metadata. it is a critical operation for product management in altoviz. | | `ALTOVIZ_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS` | Get Classifications List | This tool retrieves a list of classifications from the altoviz platform. classifications are essential for producing accounting registers from user-created invoices. it can fetch all classifications or filter them by type. | | `ALTOVIZ_GET_UNITS` | Get Units List | This tool retrieves a list of all available units in the altoviz system. units are used for product measurements and quantity specifications in various transactions. | | `ALTOVIZ_GET_VATS` | Get VAT Rates | This tool retrieves a list of all available vat rates from altoviz. it's essential for creating and managing invoices and quotes where vat calculations are required. it supports retrieving vat rates, validating them for different regions, and ensuring correct tax calculations in financial documents. | | `ALTOVIZ_UPDATE_CUSTOMER` | Update Customer Information | This tool updates an existing customer's information in altoviz. it enables modification of various customer details including contact information, company details, and personal information. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Altoviz MCP server provides comprehensive access to Altoviz operations through Composio.

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