How Atomic Agent connects to Bright Data

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 Bright Data to Atomic Agent

  1. Sign up or sign in to the Composio dashboard. Copy your API key.
  2. 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.
  3. Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Bright Data. It searches Composio for the right tool.
  4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Bright Data 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 Bright Data MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Bright Data MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Bright Data account. It currently provides no tools, so your agent cannot scrape websites, collect public web data, retrieve results, or manage Bright Data resources on your behalf.

  • Web scraping unavailable: Your agent cannot scrape web pages because this toolkit currently exposes no tools.
  • Data collection unavailable: The agent cannot collect public web data through the current integration.
  • Result retrieval unavailable: Your agent cannot fetch or process Bright Data results with this toolkit.
  • Resource management unavailable: The agent cannot create, update, or manage Bright Data resources until tools are added.

Use Bright Data from Atomic Agent

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

Visit the Atomic Agent website or inspect the Atomic Agent source code.

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 for the current limits that apply to your connection.
