## 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 Api2pdf.
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 Api2pdf account. See the [Atomic Agent documentation](https://atomicagent.io/docs/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-docs) for installation instructions.

## TL;DR

### How Atomic Agent connects to Api2pdf
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 Api2pdf to Atomic Agent

### Connect Api2pdf to Atomic Agent
- Sign up or sign in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-api-key). Copy your API key.
- 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.
- Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Api2pdf. It searches Composio for the right tool.
- On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Api2pdf 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 Api2pdf MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Api2pdf MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Api2pdf account. It provides structured and secure access to powerful PDF generation and manipulation features, so your agent can generate PDFs from HTML or URLs, merge or optimize documents, extract or reorder pages, and more—automatically and on your behalf.
- PDF generation from web content: Instruct your agent to convert HTML or URLs into high-quality PDFs using engines like wkhtmltopdf or Headless Chrome.
- Merge and optimize PDFs: Have your agent combine multiple PDFs into a single file or optimize existing documents to reduce file size without sacrificing quality.
- Advanced PDF manipulation: Direct your agent to extract specific pages, reorder existing pages, or add custom headers and footers for consistent branding or page numbering.
- Barcode and QR code generation: Let your agent instantly create barcode or QR code images from any text value, ready to embed in documents or use elsewhere.
- Document conversion and preview: Ask your agent to convert PDFs to HTML with LibreOffice or generate thumbnail previews for quick visual reference.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `API2PDF_ADD_HEADER_FOOTER` | Add Header Footer | Convert HTML to PDF with customizable headers and footers using Headless Chrome. Use for generating reports, invoices, or documents with consistent page numbering, titles, dates, or branding on every page. |
| `API2PDF_CHECK_STATUS` | Check API Status | Tool to check the health status of the API2PDF service. Use when you need to verify if the API is available and responding. This endpoint does not require authentication and returns a simple status indicator. |
| `API2PDF_DELETE_PDF` | Delete PDF | Delete a previously generated PDF from API2PDF storage by its response ID. By default, API2PDF automatically deletes PDFs after 24 hours. Use this tool when you need to immediately remove a PDF for security or cleanup purposes. The response_id parameter is the ResponseId returned from any PDF generation operation (e.g., merge, convert HTML to PDF, etc.). |
| `API2PDF_EXTRACT_PAGES` | Extract PDF Pages | Tool to extract specific pages from a PDF document. Use when you need only certain pages from a larger PDF file. Provide a URL to the source PDF and optionally a page range (0-indexed, end exclusive). Returns a URL to the extracted PDF. |
| `API2PDF_LIBREOFFICE_PDF_TO_HTML` | LibreOffice PDF to HTML | Tool to convert a PDF document to HTML using LibreOffice. Use when you need HTML output of a PDF file (experimental; images may be excluded). |
| `API2PDF_LIBREOFFICE_THUMBNAIL` | LibreOffice Thumbnail | Tool to generate a thumbnail image of a document using LibreOffice. Use when you need a quick visual preview of a PDF or Office file's first page. |
| `API2PDF_MERGE_PDFS` | Merge PDFs | Merge multiple PDF documents into a single PDF file. Provide a list of publicly accessible PDF URLs, and they will be combined in the order specified. The merged PDF is available via a download URL for 24 hours. |
| `API2PDF_OPTIMIZE_PDF` | Optimize PDF | Tool to optimize a PDF document to reduce file size while maintaining quality. Use when you need to minimize storage or bandwidth for an existing PDF. |
| `API2PDF_REORDER_PAGES` | Reorder PDF Pages | Reorder pages of a PDF document by specifying a new page sequence. Provide a URL to the source PDF and a list of zero-based page indices in the desired order. For example, to reverse a 3-page PDF, use pages=[2,1,0]. The reordered PDF is available via a download URL for 24 hours. |
| `API2PDF_ZEBRA_GENERATE_BARCODE` | Generate Barcode or QR Code | Tool to generate barcodes or QR codes using Zebra Crossing (ZXING). Use when you need a barcode or QR code image from text values. |

## 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](/pricing) for the current limits that apply to your connection.

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Use Api2pdf from Atomic Agent
With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with Api2pdf in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Api2pdf MCP?

With a standalone Api2pdf MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Api2pdf tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Api2pdf and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Atomic Agent?

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 Api2pdf tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Api2pdf while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Api2pdf 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 Api2pdf data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
