Introduction

Atomic Agent is an open-source AI agent that runs on your machine and supports local models through llama.cpp. Connect it to 1,500+ apps through Composio, including Anchor browser.

This guide uses Atomic Agent's built-in Composio integration. You need Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later, your own Composio API key, and a Anchor browser account. See the Atomic Agent documentation for installation instructions.

How Atomic Agent connects to Anchor browser

Atomic Agent connects to Composio's Tool Router over Streamable HTTP MCP. It discovers the tools needed for your request, and Composio handles account authentication.

Execution and account-connection tools follow Atomic Agent's configured approval policy. Review any approval prompt before allowing an action on your connected account.

Connect Anchor browser to Atomic Agent

  1. Sign up or sign in to the Composio dashboard. Copy your API key.
  2. In Atomic Agent, open the Integrations tab and select Composio. Select API key, press e, paste the key, and press Enter. The tools become available immediately, without a restart.
  3. Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Anchor browser. It searches Composio for the right tool.
  4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Anchor browser account, then return to Atomic Agent to continue.

Headless setup

Add the following line to ~/.atomic-agent/.env, replacing YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY with your key. Start Atomic Agent after saving the file.

bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY

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

The Anchor browser MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Anchor browser account. It provides structured and secure access to powerful web automation features, so your agent can fetch web content, manage browser sessions, control profiles, and interact with extensions on your behalf.

  • Automated webpage content retrieval: Instruct your agent to browse to any URL and fetch the fully rendered page content in HTML or markdown, enabling easy scraping or summarization.
  • Session and profile management: Let your agent create, list, or delete browser profiles, as well as start, end, or monitor multiple browsing sessions for different workflows or user contexts.
  • Browser extension control: Have the agent list all installed browser extensions, making it easy to audit and manage your browser environment programmatically.
  • Resource and file listing: Ask your agent to retrieve a list of files or resources uploaded during browser automation tasks, ensuring nothing gets lost in the shuffle.
  • Comprehensive session oversight: Quickly get an overview of all active browser sessions, their statuses, and terminate any or all sessions instantly for security or resource management needs.

Use Anchor browser from Atomic Agent

With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with Anchor browser in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

Visit the Atomic Agent website or inspect the Atomic Agent source code.

Troubleshooting

Why is my API key rejected?

Copy the key directly from the Composio dashboard. Atomic Agent requires ASCII characters because it sends the key in an HTTP header. Remove any extra characters introduced when copying.

Why are Composio tools unavailable after saving a key?

Check that you use Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later and that Composio is enabled in your configuration. A "composio": { "enabled": false } setting disables the integration while keeping the saved key on disk.

Does Composio have a free plan?

The Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month. Composio-managed OAuth apps have a lower included allowance. See Composio pricing for the current limits that apply to your connection.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

Yes, you can. Atomic Agent 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 Anchor browser tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Anchor browser 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.

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 Anchor browser data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
