Introduction

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

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

Copy the setup prompt from the OpenClaw dashboard
  • Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
  • Authenticate Confluence from the dashboard
  • 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

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.

What is the Confluence MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Confluence MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Confluence account. It provides structured and secure access to your Confluence spaces, pages, and content, so your agent can perform actions like creating pages, publishing blog posts, organizing spaces, and managing metadata on your behalf.

  • Automated page and space creation: Instantly create new Confluence pages or entire spaces, empowering your agent to generate project documentation, wikis, or knowledge bases as needed.
  • Effortless blog post publishing: Let your agent draft and publish new blog posts within specified Confluence spaces to keep your team up-to-date and share knowledge seamlessly.
  • Content labeling and metadata management: Have your agent add labels and custom properties to pages, blog posts, or spaces, making it easy to organize, tag, and categorize information for better discoverability.
  • Private space setup and management: Direct your agent to create private, isolated workspaces for sensitive projects or teams, ensuring only authorized collaborators have access.
  • Custom content property automation: Empower your agent to attach or update custom metadata on pages, blog posts, spaces, or whiteboards, streamlining your internal documentation workflows.

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Confluence MCP?

With a standalone Confluence MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Confluence tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Confluence 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 Confluence tools.

Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Confluence while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Confluence 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 Confluence data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
