## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `CUSTOMERIO_MCP_CIO_AUTH_STATUS` | Cio auth status | Show the active authentication state. Reports the authenticated user and account, the workspaces the current OAuth token is allowed to access, and whether an agent service-account JWT can be minted. Use this to diagnose auth errors. |
| `CUSTOMERIO_MCP_CIO_DELETE_API` | Cio delete api | Delete a resource via the Customer.io API (DELETE only). Always run with dry_run first to preview. Use cio_schema to find the correct path. |
| `CUSTOMERIO_MCP_CIO_PRIME` | Cio prime | Print LLM-ready instructions for using the Customer.io API. ALWAYS call this first in a new task — it contains the authoritative, version-specific rules for how to drive the API via the other cio_* tools. |
| `CUSTOMERIO_MCP_CIO_READ_API` | Cio read api | Read from the Customer.io API (GET only). Use cio_schema first to find the correct path and placeholders. Workspace routing is enforced server-side via the caller's OAuth token. |
| `CUSTOMERIO_MCP_CIO_SCHEMA` | Cio schema | Introspect the Customer.io API schema. Use this to discover endpoints before calling cio_read_api / cio_write_api / cio_delete_api — never guess paths or field names. Pass no query to list resources; pass a resource name ('campaigns') to list its endpoints; pass 'resource.method' ('campaigns.list'), 'METHOD /path', or '/path' for endpoint detail. |
| `CUSTOMERIO_MCP_CIO_SKILLS_LIST` | Cio skills list | List available agent skills — task-specific instruction manuals maintained by Customer.io (routing rules, required params, multi-step workflows). |
| `CUSTOMERIO_MCP_CIO_SKILLS_READ` | Cio skills read | Read the full content of a specific agent skill. Paths look like 'campaigns' for the main skill or 'campaigns/examples.md' for a sub-file — see cio_skills_list for available paths. |
| `CUSTOMERIO_MCP_CIO_WRITE_API` | Cio write api | Write to the Customer.io API (POST, PUT, or PATCH). Always run with dry_run first to preview. Use cio_schema to find the correct path, method, and body shape. |

### Path 1: SDK Installation

#### Path 1, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK
```python
pip install composio_openai
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai
```

#### Path 1, Step 2: Initialize Composio and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize Composio client, then create a Tool Router session
```python
from openai import OpenAI
from composio import Composio
from composio_openai import OpenAIResponsesProvider

composio = Composio(provider=OpenAIResponsesProvider())
openai = OpenAI()
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
```

```typescript
import OpenAI from 'openai';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from '@composio/openai';

const composio = new Composio({
  provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider(),
});
const openai = new OpenAI({});
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');
```

#### Path 1, Step 3: Execute Customer.io MCP Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent

Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Customer.io MCP actions with your Agent
```python
tools = session.tools
response = openai.responses.create(
  model='gpt-4.1',
  tools=tools,
  input=[{
    'role': 'user',
    'content': 'YOUR_SPECIFIC_PROMPT_HERE'
  }]
)
result = composio.provider.handle_tool_calls(
  response=response,
  user_id='your-user-id'
)
print(result)
```

```typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-4.1',
  tools: tools,
  input: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'YOUR_SPECIFIC_PROMPT_HERE'
  }],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(
  'your-user-id',
  response.output
);
console.log(result);
```

### Path 2: MCP Server Setup

```python
pip install composio claude-agent-sdk
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcp
```

#### Path 2, Step 2: Initialize Client and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize the Composio client, then create a Tool Router session for Customer.io MCP
```python
from composio import Composio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions

composio = Composio(api_key='your-composio-api-key')
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')

#### Path 2, Step 3: Connect to AI Agent

Use the MCP server with your AI agent (Anthropic Claude or Mastra)
```python
import asyncio

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    permission_mode='bypassPermissions',
    mcp_servers={
        'tool_router': {
            'type': 'http',
            'url': url,
            'headers': {
                'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key'
            }
        }
    },
    system_prompt='You are a helpful assistant with access to Customer.io MCP tools.',
    max_turns=10
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query('YOUR_SPECIFIC_PROMPT_HERE')
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if hasattr(message, 'content'):
                for block in message.content:
                    if hasattr(block, 'text'):
                        print(block.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

```typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText } from 'ai';

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: 'http',
    url: session.mcp.url,
    headers: {
      'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key',
    },
  },
});

const tools = await client.tools();
const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai('gpt-4o'),
  tools,
  messages: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'YOUR_SPECIFIC_PROMPT_HERE'
  }],
  maxSteps: 5,
});

console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);
```
