## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ALTTEXT_AI_CREATE_BULK_IMAGES` | Bulk Create Images | Tool to bulk upload and process a CSV file of image URLs for alt text generation. Use when you need to process multiple images at once (up to 100,000 URLs). Invalid rows are returned in row_errors for debugging. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_CREATE_IMAGE` | Create Image | Tool to add an image and generate alt text. Supports both URL and base64-encoded file upload. Use when you need to generate alt text for images, with options for custom prompts, keywords, multiple languages, and ecommerce data. Rate limited to 4 calls per second. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_DELETE_IMAGE_BY_ASSET_ID` | Delete Image by Asset ID | Tool to delete an image from your library by its asset ID. Use when you need to remove a specific image permanently from your AltText.ai account. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_GET_ACCOUNT` | Get Account | Tool to retrieve account settings and usage information. Use when you need to check your AltText.ai account configuration and usage limits before generating alt text. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_GET_IMAGE_BY_ASSET_ID` | Get Image by Asset ID | Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific image using its asset ID. Use when you need to fetch alt text, metadata, or status of a previously processed image. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_GET_IMAGES` | Get Images | Tool to retrieve a paginated list of images in your library, including their alt text and metadata. Use when you need to browse or filter images programmatically after authentication. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_SCRAPE_PAGE` | Scrape Page for Images | Tool to scrape a web page or HTML document and queue all images for alt text generation. Images are processed asynchronously. Does not execute JavaScript. Use when you need to batch-process images from a website or HTML content. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_SEARCH_IMAGES` | Search Images | Search for images in your AltText.ai library by keywords. Searches through your previously processed images to find matches based on URLs, alt text content, and metadata. Useful for finding specific images in large libraries. Returns paginated results with alt text and metadata. Note: This searches your own image library, not a public image database. Images must be added via the Create Image endpoint before they can be searched. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_UPDATE_ACCOUNT` | Update Account | Tool to update account settings (e.g., webhook_url, name). Use after confirming current account details to modify settings. |
| `ALTTEXT_AI_UPDATE_IMAGE_BY_ASSET_ID` | Update Image by Asset ID | Tool to update an image with new data including asset ID, alt text, and metadata. Use when you need to modify existing image information. Note: You cannot update the URL of an existing image. |

## Installation and MCP Setup

### Path 1: SDK Installation

#### Path 1, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK
```python
pip install composio_openai
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai
```

#### Path 1, Step 2: Initialize Composio and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize Composio client, then create a Tool Router session
```python
from openai import OpenAI
from composio import Composio
from composio_openai import OpenAIResponsesProvider

composio = Composio(provider=OpenAIResponsesProvider())
openai = OpenAI()
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
```

```typescript
import OpenAI from 'openai';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from '@composio/openai';

const composio = new Composio({
  provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider(),
});
const openai = new OpenAI({});
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');
```

#### Path 1, Step 3: Execute Alttext ai Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent

Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Alttext ai actions with your Agent
```python
tools = session.tools
response = openai.responses.create(
  model='gpt-4.1',
  tools=tools,
  input=[{
    'role': 'user',
    'content': 'Generate descriptive alt text for the latest uploaded image in my library.'
  }]
)
result = composio.provider.handle_tool_calls(
  response=response,
  user_id='your-user-id'
)
print(result)
```

```typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-4.1',
  tools: tools,
  input: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'Generate descriptive alt text for the latest uploaded image in my library.'
  }],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(
  'your-user-id',
  response.output
);
console.log(result);
```

### Path 2: MCP Server Setup

#### Path 2, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK and Claude Agent SDK
```python
pip install composio claude-agent-sdk
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcp
```

#### Path 2, Step 2: Create Tool Router Session

Initialize the Composio client and create a Tool Router session
```python
from composio import Composio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions

composio = Composio(api_key='your-composio-api-key')
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';

const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: 'your-api-key' });

console.log("Creating Tool Router session...");
const { mcp } = await composio.create('your-user-id');
console.log(`Tool Router session created: ${mcp.url}`);
```

#### Path 2, Step 3: Connect to AI Agent

Use the MCP server with your AI agent
```python
import asyncio

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    permission_mode='bypassPermissions',
    mcp_servers={
        'tool_router': {
            'type': 'http',
            'url': url,
            'headers': {
                'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key'
            }
        }
    },
    system_prompt='You are a helpful assistant with access to Alttext ai tools.',
    max_turns=10
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query('Generate alt text for the latest uploaded image')
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if hasattr(message, 'content'):
                for block in message.content:
                    if hasattr(block, 'text'):
                        print(block.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

```typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from 'ai';

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: 'http',
    url: mcp.url,
    headers: { 'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key' }
  }
});

const tools = await client.tools();

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai('gpt-4o'),
  tools,
  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Generate alt text for the latest uploaded image' }],
  stopWhen: stepCountIs( 5 )
});

console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);
```
