This guide uses Atomic Agent's built-in Composio integration. You need Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later, your own Composio API key, and a Connecteam account. See the [Atomic Agent documentation](https://atomicagent.io/docs/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-docs) for installation instructions. ## Also integrate Connecteam with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/hermes-agent) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/crew-ai) - [Pydantic AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/pydantic-ai) - [AutoGen](https://composio.dev/toolkits/connecteam/framework/autogen) ## TL;DR ### How Atomic Agent connects to Connecteam 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 Connecteam to Atomic Agent ### Connect Connecteam to Atomic Agent - Sign up or sign in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-api-key). Copy your API key. - 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. - Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Connecteam. It searches Composio for the right tool. - On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Connecteam 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 Connecteam MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Connecteam MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Connecteam account. It provides structured and secure access to your workforce management data, so your agent can perform actions like managing users, retrieving chats, processing forms, handling jobs, and analyzing performance metrics on your behalf. - User management and automation: Quickly add new employees, archive inactive users, or update user details to keep your workforce roster up to date. - Team communications monitoring: Retrieve chat conversations and team channels, making it easy for your agent to help you stay on top of internal messages and updates. - Form and workflow processing: List and review all existing forms, so your agent can help automate routine HR tasks and data collection. - Job and scheduling insights: Access job objects tied to your schedules or time clocks, letting your agent assist with workforce planning and role assignments. - Performance and policy analytics: Fetch performance indicators and available time-off policy types, enabling your agent to surface key metrics and streamline HR policy management. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `CONNECTEAM_ARCHIVE_USERS` | Archive Users | Tool to archive one or more users by their unique IDs.

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](/pricing) for the current limits that apply to your connection. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Use Connecteam from Atomic Agent With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with Connecteam in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

With a standalone Connecteam MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Connecteam tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Connecteam and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Atomic Agent? Yes, you can. Atomic Agent 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 Connecteam tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Connecteam while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Connecteam 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 Connecteam 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)
