However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Bugherd with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Bugherd via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer. ## Also integrate Bugherd with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/codex) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/bugherd/framework/crew-ai) ## 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. ## Connect Bugherd to OpenClaw ### How to install Bugherd with OpenClaw ### Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt - Go to [dashboard.composio.dev](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?next=/~/org/connect/clients/openclaw&utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=openclaw&utm_content=setup_prompt) - Copy the setup prompt - Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface. - Authenticate Bugherd from the [dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?next=/~/org/connect/clients/openclaw&utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=openclaw&utm_content=authenticate) - Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions. ### Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin 1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin ```bash openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-plugin ``` ## What is the Bugherd MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Bugherd MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Bugherd account. It provides structured and secure access to your Bugherd workspace, so your agent can perform actions like creating tasks, managing projects, posting comments, and inviting team members—all on your behalf. - Visual bug reporting and task creation: Instantly add new tasks to any project, capturing detailed bug reports or website feedback directly from your team or clients. - Project management and workflow customization: Create new projects, add workflow columns, and delete projects when they’re no longer needed to keep your bug tracking organized and up-to-date. - Collaboration and discussion: Add comments to tasks, attach files, and keep all stakeholders in the loop with contextual feedback and documentation. - Team and guest access management: Seamlessly invite members or guests to projects so the right people can track, manage, and resolve issues together. - Webhook automation and notifications: Set up webhooks to receive real-time notifications for events like task creation or new comments, helping you automate downstream workflows. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `BUGHERD_ADD_GUEST_TO_PROJECT` | Add Guest to Project | Tool to add a guest (client) to a project.

With a standalone Bugherd MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Bugherd tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Bugherd 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 Bugherd tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Bugherd while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Bugherd 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 Bugherd data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
