How to integrate Brilliant directories MCP with OpenClaw

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 Brilliant directories with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Brilliant directories 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 Brilliant directories with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

• Go to dashboard.composio.dev/composio/~/connect/clients/openclaw
• Copy the setup prompt

• Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
• Authenticate Brilliant directories from the dashboard
• Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions.

Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin

1. Install OpenClaw Composio 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.

Configuration

{
  "plugins": {
    "entries": {
      "composio": {
        "enabled": true,
        "config": {
          "consumerKey": "ck_your_key_here"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

The Brilliant directories MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Brilliant directories account. It provides structured and secure access to your membership community and business directory platform, so your agent can perform actions like managing users, retrieving data categories, and automating lead and review workflows on your behalf.

• User creation and management: Easily instruct your agent to create new users with detailed profiles or delete existing members, streamlining your directory's onboarding and maintenance.
• Deep data category access: Ask your agent to fetch all available data categories from your site, making it simple to organize content or power dynamic site navigation experiences.
• Lead field discovery and automation: Let your agent retrieve the full structure of your leads table, helping you automate lead capture, validation, or enrichment workflows with up-to-date field metadata.
• Review field extraction and insights: Direct your agent to pull all available review fields, enabling smarter review management, analytics, or custom reporting based on your site’s feedback system.
• User data field exploration: Have your agent fetch and analyze all user-related fields, supporting advanced user segmentation, targeted updates, or personalized communications.
