Introduction

OpenClaw is the fastest growing agent harness out there, which can work 24/7 to automate almost any kind of tasks. However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Aryn with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Aryn via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

Why use Composio?

Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:

  • 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.
  • Handling Large tool responses out of LLM context to minimize context rot.
  • Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 850+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

How to install Aryn with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

Copy the setup prompt from the OpenClaw dashboard
  • Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
  • Authenticate Aryn from the dashboard
  • Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions.

Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin

1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin

bash
openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-plugin

2. Copy the API Key from dashboard.composio.dev

3. Setup OpenClaw Config

openclaw config set plugins.entries.composio.config.consumerKey "ck_your_key_here"

4. Restart OpenClaw

openclaw gateway restart

5. Go to your chat interface and start asking questions.

6. When prompted, authenticate the app and you're all set.

How It Works

The plugin connects to Composio's MCP server at https://connect.composio.dev/mcp and registers all available tools directly into the OpenClaw agent. Tools are called by name — no extra search or execute steps needed.

If a tool returns an auth error, the agent will prompt you to connect that toolkit at dashboard.composio.dev.

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

The Aryn MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Aryn account. It provides structured and secure access to your document sets and analytics tools, so your agent can perform actions like document parsing, data extraction, metadata management, and workflow monitoring on your behalf.

  • Automated document set management: Create, organize, and delete entire docsets to keep your unstructured documents sorted and accessible for further processing.
  • Advanced document retrieval: Retrieve individual documents or their binary content by ID, making it easy for your agent to access and analyze specific files.
  • Dynamic query planning: Generate logical query plans for complex data extraction or analytics tasks before executing them, giving you more transparency and control over document analysis workflows.
  • Metadata and usage insights: Fetch detailed metadata and usage statistics for any docset, so you can track document activity and storage at a glance.
  • Asynchronous task monitoring: List and monitor all outstanding or running async tasks, helping you keep tabs on document processing operations and system status in real time.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Aryn with OpenClaw using Composio plugin. Now interact with Aryn directly from your terminal, Web UI, or any messenger app using natural language commands.

Key benefits of this setup:

  • Seamless integration across TUI, Web UIs, and Messenger apps like Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, etc.
  • Natural language commands for Aryn operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 850+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • Programmatic tool calling for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

  • Try asking OpenClaw to perform various Aryn operations
  • Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits like Calendar, Slack, Notion, etc.
  • Build complex automation scripts that leverage OpenClaw's 24/7 running capabilities

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Aryn MCP?

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

Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenClaw?

Yes, you can. OpenClaw 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 Aryn tools.

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

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