Introduction

Atomic Agent is an open-source AI agent that runs on your machine and supports local models through llama.cpp. Connect it to 1,500+ apps through Composio, including Customerio.

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 Customerio account. See the Atomic Agent documentation for installation instructions.

How Atomic Agent connects to Customerio

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 Customerio to Atomic Agent

  1. Sign up or sign in to the Composio dashboard. Copy your API key.
  2. 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.
  3. Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Customerio. It searches Composio for the right tool.
  4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Customerio 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 Customerio MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Customerio MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Customer.io account. It provides structured and secure access to your customer engagement workspace, allowing your agent to send targeted communications, manage segments, retrieve messaging analytics, and automate customer data management on your behalf.

  • Targeted message analytics and tracking: Retrieve detailed lists of messages sent, including delivery metrics, to monitor campaign performance and engagement.
  • Segment discovery and membership management: Let your agent fetch all segments, get details for a specific segment, and list all customers in a segment for precise audience targeting.
  • Integration and webhook management: Have your agent list and review all integrations and webhooks in your workspace to streamline system connectivity and reporting.
  • Customer profile suppression: Direct your agent to permanently suppress (delete and block) customer profiles, ensuring compliance and data privacy.
  • Collection metadata retrieval: Retrieve up-to-date details for all collections in your workspace, keeping your AI-powered workflows and automations in sync with your data sources.

Use Customerio from Atomic Agent

With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with Customerio in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

Visit the Atomic Agent website or inspect the Atomic Agent source code.

Troubleshooting

Why is my API key rejected?

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 for the current limits that apply to your connection.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Customerio MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Customerio tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Customerio and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

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 Customerio tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Customerio 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.

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 Customerio data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
