## 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 Bannerbear with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Bannerbear via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

## Also integrate Bannerbear with

## TL;DR

### 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 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

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

The Bannerbear MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Bannerbear account. It provides structured and secure access to your Bannerbear workspace, so your agent can generate images, create videos, manage templates, merge PDFs, and retrieve creative assets on your behalf.
- Automated image and video generation: Enable your agent to create customized graphics or videos at scale using your Bannerbear templates and project assets.
- Template browsing and management: Let your agent list, inspect, and select templates or template sets for creative projects, making it easy to automate content workflows.
- Font and asset discovery: Have your agent retrieve available fonts and signed bases, ensuring the right design elements are used for every creative output.
- PDF merging automation: Direct your agent to combine multiple PDFs into a single document, streamlining report or collateral creation.
- Account and usage monitoring: Allow your agent to fetch current account status, API usage, and quota information to keep your creative operations running smoothly.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `BANNERBEAR_CREATE_PROJECT` | Create Project | Creates a new Bannerbear project with the specified name and optional settings.

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

With a standalone Bannerbear MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Bannerbear tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Bannerbear 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 Bannerbear tools.

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

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