How to integrate D2lbrightspace MCP with Atomic Agent

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 D2lbrightspace.

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 D2lbrightspace account. See the Atomic Agent documentation for installation instructions.

How Atomic Agent connects to D2lbrightspace

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 D2lbrightspace 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 D2lbrightspace. It searches Composio for the right tool.
4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your D2lbrightspace 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.

The D2lbrightspace MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your D2L Brightspace account. It provides structured and secure access to your LMS, so your agent can perform actions like creating courses, managing quizzes, handling user enrollment, and automating gradebook operations on your behalf.

• Automated course creation and management: Instantly create new courses, course offerings, or templates, and streamline updates or deletions without manual intervention.
• Quiz and assessment automation: Let your agent set up new quizzes, organize quiz categories, and configure assessment parameters to enhance the learning experience.
• Gradebook and feedback management: Effortlessly create, modify, or delete grade objects to keep your course grading up to date and provide prompt feedback to learners.
• User enrollment and management: Create new user accounts, manage user roles, and handle enrollment or impersonation tasks to simplify onboarding and administration.
• Role and permissions control: Copy existing roles, adjust specific permissions, and fine-tune access for different user groups—all directly through your agent.

Use D2lbrightspace from Atomic Agent

With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with D2lbrightspace in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.
