SETUP GUIDE
Connect Bitly MCP Tool with your Agent
1
Install Composio
typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/mcp @ai-sdk/openaiInstall the Composio SDK and your agent framework
2
Create a session with MCP enabled
typescript
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";
const composio = new Composio();
const { mcp } = await composio.create("your-user-id", {
toolkits: ["bitly"],
mcp: true,
});Create a session scoped to Bitly and read its MCP URL and headers
3
Connect your agent to the MCP server
typescript
import { createMCPClient } from "@ai-sdk/mcp";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from "ai";
const client = await createMCPClient({
transport: { type: "http", url: mcp.url, headers: mcp.headers },
});
const { text } = await generateText({
model: openai("gpt-5.6-sol"),
tools: await client.tools(),
prompt: "Shorten https://example.com/summer-sale using Bitly and return the short link",
stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
});
console.log(text);
await client.close();Pass the session's MCP URL and headers to your agent and run a Bitly request
SETUP GUIDE
Connect Bitly API Tool with your Agent
1
Install Composio
typescript
npm install @composio/core @composio/openai openaiInstall the Composio SDK, the OpenAI provider, and the OpenAI SDK
2
Create a Composio session
typescript
import OpenAI from "openai";
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from "@composio/openai";
const composio = new Composio({ provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider() });
const client = new OpenAI();
const session = await composio.create("your-user-id", { toolkits: ["bitly"] });
const tools = await session.tools();Initialize Composio with the OpenAI Responses provider and create a session scoped to Bitly
3
Run Bitly tools with your agent
typescript
let response = await client.responses.create({
model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
tools,
input: [{ role: "user", content: "Shorten https://example.com/summer-sale using Bitly and return the short link" }],
});
while (response.output.some((o) => o.type === "function_call")) {
const outputs = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(session, response.output);
response = await client.responses.create({
model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
tools,
previous_response_id: response.id,
input: outputs,
});
}
console.log(response.output_text);Send a request, execute the Bitly tool calls through the session, and print the final answer

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Bitly requires connections to go through your own OAuth app. You register it once with Bitly, add its client ID and secret in the Composio dashboard, and from then on everyone connects by signing in to Bitly as usual. Composio handles the rest of the flow and the token refresh.
Yes! Composio's Tool Router enables agents to use multiple toolkits. Learn more.
Yes. Composio is SOC 2 Type II compliant and is built to keep your Bitly connection and credentials secure. OAuth tokens and API keys are encrypted, and sensitive customer data is protected at rest and in transit.
Composio also undergoes independent security testing and continuously monitors its systems for security threats. You can review the latest reports and policies in the Composio Trust Center.
Composio maintains and updates all toolkit integrations automatically, so your agents always work with the latest API versions.
When you connect a Bitly account through Composio, every action runs under that account, so anything the agent creates, sends, or changes shows up in Bitly as done by you. Keep an approval step in your prompt for actions with side effects, such as sending or deleting, and have the agent draft first.
Exactly the ones Bitly lists on its consent screen when you connect. Review that screen before approving. If you connect a work account, your Bitly administrator may need to approve the app first, and you can revoke the access inside Bitly whenever you want.
Yes. Composio supports multiple connected accounts for the same app, and that works in Claude, ChatGPT, or any other assistant you connect through Composio. Give each Bitly connection a name such as work or personal, and the assistant uses the one you mention in the request. Each account keeps its own credentials and nothing is merged.
Composio refreshes Bitly tokens automatically, so day to day you do nothing. If you revoke access inside Bitly, or Bitly invalidates the session, the connection shows as expired in Composio and the agent stops acting on that account until you reconnect it, which is a single sign-in.
Composio's free Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month with no credit card, which covers most personal Bitly use. Paid plans add higher limits and team features. Your Bitly plan and its API limits still apply as usual.
Built-in connectors usually give one AI access to a limited set of apps. Many people use Composio because it lets their AI connect to more apps than it normally supports, or connect to multiple accounts for the same app (e.g. connect Claude to multiple Bitly accounts).
With Composio, you connect Bitly once and then use it across different AI assistants without setting it up separately in each one. Connect your apps to Composio once, then connect Composio to whichever AI you use, whether that's Claude, ChatGPT, Hermes, or your own custom assistant.
