Pydantic AI is a Python framework for building AI agents with strong typing and validation. It leverages Pydantic's data validation capabilities to create robust, type-safe AI applications. Key features include: - Type Safety: Built on Pydantic for automatic data validation - MCP Support: Native support for Model Context Protocol servers - Streaming: Built-in support for streaming responses - Async First: Designed for async/await patterns ## What is the Cincopa MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Cincopa MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Cincopa account. It provides structured and secure access to your multimedia libraries, so your agent can perform actions like uploading new media, monitoring upload progress, validating connections, and managing ongoing uploads on your behalf. - Remote media uploading: Effortlessly instruct your agent to upload new videos, images, or audio directly from external URLs into your Cincopa galleries or asset collections. - Upload status tracking: Have your agent check and report the real-time status of ongoing or recently initiated media uploads for better workflow oversight. - Abort in-progress uploads: Direct your agent to cancel unnecessary or stalled asset uploads to keep your media workspace organized and efficient. - API connection validation: Let your agent verify and confirm your API credentials and connectivity with Cincopa, ensuring secure and reliable integration at all times. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `CINCOPA_ASSET_UPLOAD_FROM_URL` | Upload Asset From URL | Tool to upload a new asset directly from a provided external URL and receive a status ID for tracking. Use when you need to import media from a remote source and optionally specify a gallery or existing asset. | | `CINCOPA_ASSET_UPLOAD_FROM_URL_ABORT` | Abort Asset Upload From URL | Tool to abort an ongoing asset upload-in-progress by providing its status ID. Use when an upload is no longer needed, was initiated by mistake, or is taking too long. | | `CINCOPA_ASSET_UPLOAD_FROM_URL_GET_STATUS` | Get Asset Upload From URL Status | Tool to check the status of an asset upload initiated via URL by its status ID. Use after calling 'Upload Asset From URL' to poll for completion. | | `CINCOPA_GET_UPLOAD_IFRAME` | Get Upload Iframe | Tool to get an upload iframe URL for embedding an upload widget.

Use after obtaining a valid api_token to confirm connectivity. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Cincopa MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Cincopa. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Cincopa operations on your behalf through a secure, permission-based interface. With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster. ## Step-by-step Guide ### 1. Prerequisites Before starting, make sure you have: - Python 3.9 or higher - A Composio account with an active API key - Basic familiarity with Python and async programming ### 1. Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio OpenAI API Key - Go to the [OpenAI dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys) and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider. - Keep the API key safe. Composio API Key - Log in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs). - Navigate to your API settings and generate a new API key. - Store this key securely as you'll need it for authentication. ### 2. Install dependencies Install the required libraries. What's happening: - composio connects your agent to external SaaS tools like Cincopa - pydantic-ai lets you create structured AI agents with tool support - python-dotenv loads your environment variables securely from a .env file ```bash pip install composio pydantic-ai python-dotenv ``` ### 3. Set up environment variables Create a .env file in your project root. What's happening: - COMPOSIO_API_KEY authenticates your agent to Composio's API - USER_ID associates your session with your account for secure tool access - OPENAI_API_KEY to access OpenAI LLMs ```bash COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here USER_ID=your_user_id_here OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key ``` ### 4. Import dependencies What's happening: - We load environment variables and import required modules - Composio manages connections to Cincopa - MCPServerStreamableHTTP connects to the Cincopa MCP server endpoint - Agent from Pydantic AI lets you define and run the AI assistant ```python import asyncio import os from dotenv import load_dotenv from composio import Composio from pydantic_ai import Agent from pydantic_ai.mcp import MCPServerStreamableHTTP load_dotenv() ``` ### 5. Create a Tool Router Session What's happening: - We're creating a Tool Router session that gives your agent access to Cincopa tools - The create method takes the user ID and specifies which toolkits should be available - The returned session.mcp.url is the MCP server URL that your agent will use ```python async def main(): api_key = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY") user_id = os.getenv("USER_ID") if not api_key or not user_id: raise RuntimeError("Set COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID in your environment") # Create a Composio Tool Router session for Cincopa composio = Composio(api_key=api_key) session = composio.create( user_id=user_id, toolkits=["cincopa"], ) url = session.mcp.url if not url: raise ValueError("Composio session did not return an MCP URL") ``` ### 6. Initialize the Pydantic AI Agent What's happening: - The MCP client connects to the Cincopa endpoint - The agent uses GPT-5 to interpret user commands and perform Cincopa operations - The instructions field defines the agent's role and behavior ```python # Attach the MCP server to a Pydantic AI Agent cincopa_mcp = MCPServerStreamableHTTP(url, headers={"x-api-key": COMPOSIO_API_KEY}) agent = Agent( "openai:gpt-5", toolsets=[cincopa_mcp], instructions=( "You are a Cincopa assistant. Use Cincopa tools to help users " "with their requests. Ask clarifying questions when needed." ), ) ``` ### 7. Build the chat interface What's happening: - The agent reads input from the terminal and streams its response - Cincopa API calls happen automatically under the hood - The model keeps conversation history to maintain context across turns ```python # Simple REPL with message history history = [] print("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end.\n") print("Try asking the agent to help you with Cincopa.\n") while True: user_input = input("You: ").strip() if user_input.lower() in {"exit", "quit", "bye"}: print("\nGoodbye!") break if not user_input: continue print("\nAgent is thinking...\n", flush=True) async with agent.run_stream(user_input, message_history=history) as stream_result: collected_text = "" async for chunk in stream_result.stream_output(): text_piece = None if isinstance(chunk, str): text_piece = chunk elif hasattr(chunk, "delta") and isinstance(chunk.delta, str): text_piece = chunk.delta elif hasattr(chunk, "text"): text_piece = chunk.text if text_piece: collected_text += text_piece result = stream_result print(f"Agent: {collected_text}\n") history = result.all_messages() ``` ### 8. Run the application What's happening: - The asyncio loop launches the agent and keeps it running until you exit ```python if __name__ == "__main__": asyncio.run(main()) ``` ## Complete Code ```python import asyncio import os from dotenv import load_dotenv from composio import Composio from pydantic_ai import Agent from pydantic_ai.mcp import MCPServerStreamableHTTP load_dotenv() async def main(): api_key = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY") user_id = os.getenv("USER_ID") if not api_key or not user_id: raise RuntimeError("Set COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID in your environment") # Create a Composio Tool Router session for Cincopa composio = Composio(api_key=api_key) session = composio.create( user_id=user_id, toolkits=["cincopa"], ) url = session.mcp.url if not url: raise ValueError("Composio session did not return an MCP URL") # Attach the MCP server to a Pydantic AI Agent cincopa_mcp = MCPServerStreamableHTTP(url, headers={"x-api-key": COMPOSIO_API_KEY}) agent = Agent( "openai:gpt-5", toolsets=[cincopa_mcp], instructions=( "You are a Cincopa assistant. Use Cincopa tools to help users " "with their requests. Ask clarifying questions when needed." ), ) # Simple REPL with message history history = [] print("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end.\n") print("Try asking the agent to help you with Cincopa.\n") while True: user_input = input("You: ").strip() if user_input.lower() in {"exit", "quit", "bye"}: print("\nGoodbye!") break if not user_input: continue print("\nAgent is thinking...\n", flush=True) async with agent.run_stream(user_input, message_history=history) as stream_result: collected_text = "" async for chunk in stream_result.stream_output(): text_piece = None if isinstance(chunk, str): text_piece = chunk elif hasattr(chunk, "delta") and isinstance(chunk.delta, str): text_piece = chunk.delta elif hasattr(chunk, "text"): text_piece = chunk.text if text_piece: collected_text += text_piece result = stream_result print(f"Agent: {collected_text}\n") history = result.all_messages() if __name__ == "__main__": asyncio.run(main()) ``` ## Conclusion You've built a Pydantic AI agent that can interact with Cincopa through Composio's Tool Router. With this setup, your agent can perform real Cincopa actions through natural language. You can extend this further by: - Adding other toolkits like Gmail, HubSpot, or Salesforce - Building a web-based chat interface around this agent - Using multiple MCP endpoints to enable cross-app workflows (for example, Gmail + Cincopa for workflow automation) This architecture makes your AI agent "agent-native", able to securely use APIs in a unified, composable way without custom integrations. ## How to build Cincopa MCP Agent with another framework - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cincopa/framework/crew-ai) ## Related Toolkits - [Youtube](https://composio.dev/toolkits/youtube) - YouTube is a leading video-sharing platform for uploading, streaming, and discovering content.

With a standalone Cincopa MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Cincopa tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Cincopa and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Pydantic AI? Yes, you can. Pydantic AI 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 Cincopa tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Cincopa while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Cincopa 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 Cincopa data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) ยท [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
