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

- [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/beatapi/framework/hermes-agent)

## TL;DR

### How Atomic Agent connects to BeatAPI
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 BeatAPI to Atomic Agent

### Connect BeatAPI 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 BeatAPI. It searches Composio for the right tool.
- On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your BeatAPI 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 BeatAPI MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The BeatAPI MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your BeatAPI account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform BeatAPI operations on your behalf.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `BEATAPI_CREATE_ECOMMERCE_VIDEO_TASK` | Create Ecommerce Video Task | Start a paid asynchronous BeatAPI product-ad video task from uploaded product images, and return its task ID for status polling. |
| `BEATAPI_CREATE_IMAGE_GENERATION_TASK` | Create Image Generation Task | Start a paid asynchronous BeatAPI image generation task with one exact model-specific contract, and return its task ID for status polling. |
| `BEATAPI_CREATE_VIDEO_ANALYSIS_TASK` | Create Video Analysis Task | Start a paid asynchronous analysis of an account-owned uploaded video and return its task ID for status polling. |
| `BEATAPI_CREATE_VIDEO_GENERATION_TASK` | Create Video Generation Task | Start a paid asynchronous BeatAPI video generation task with an exact model-specific request. Save the returned task ID and use Get Task to poll until succeeded or failed. |
| `BEATAPI_GET_TASK` | Get Task | Read the current status, stage, storyboard, output, usage, or failure details for one asynchronous BeatAPI task. This performs one status read, not an automatic polling loop. When polling, wait 5-10 seconds with jitter between calls, stop at succeeded or failed, and honor Retry-After on rate limits. |
| `BEATAPI_GET_USAGE` | Get Usage | Get the connected account's USD balance, task totals, concurrency, and usage breakdowns before or after paid work. |
| `BEATAPI_LIST_EFFECTS` | List Effects | List currently published image and video effects with each effect's exact input and option contract. |
| `BEATAPI_LIST_GENERATION_MODELS` | List Generation Models | List currently available image and video generation models, optionally filtered by media type, before creating a generation task. |
| `BEATAPI_LIST_WORKFLOWS` | List Workflows | List BeatAPI's available high-level workflows and what each workflow produces. |
| `BEATAPI_UPLOAD_FILE` | Upload File | Upload an image, audio file, subtitle file, or short video to BeatAPI and return an account-owned URL for generation or analysis inputs. |

## 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.

## Conclusion

### Use BeatAPI from Atomic Agent
With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with BeatAPI 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 BeatAPI MCP?

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

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

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