## 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 DeepSeek with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on DeepSeek via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

## TL;DR

### 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 1500+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

### Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin
1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin

```bash
openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-plugin
```

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

The DeepSeek MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your DeepSeek account. It provides structured and secure access to DeepSeek models, chat completions, Anthropic-compatible responses, and account balance details, so your agent can generate responses, perform reasoning tasks, use system instructions and tools, check available models, and monitor your balance on your behalf.
- Chat response generation: Have your agent use DeepSeek Chat to answer questions, draft content, summarize text, or carry out conversational tasks.
- Advanced reasoning: Direct your agent to use DeepSeek Reasoner for tasks that require deeper analysis and structured problem-solving.
- Anthropic-compatible conversations: Let the agent create responses with system prompts, tool calling, streaming, or thinking mode through DeepSeek's Anthropic-compatible format.
- Model discovery: Instruct your agent to list the DeepSeek models currently available and review their basic ownership and availability details.
- Balance monitoring: Have your agent check your current granted and topped-up balances, including the available breakdown in CNY or USD.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `DEEPSEEK_CREATE_ANTHROPIC_MESSAGE` | Create Anthropic Message | Tool to create a model response using DeepSeek's Anthropic-compatible API format with support for system prompts, tool calling, streaming, and thinking mode. Use when you need to generate chat completions using the Anthropic Messages API format. Requires base_url='https://api.deepseek.com/anthropic' or metadata base_url ending with '/anthropic'. Supports extended thinking, function calling with tools, and streaming responses. Note: Images and documents are not supported in content blocks. |
| `DEEPSEEK_CREATE_CHAT_COMPLETION` | Create Chat Completion | Tool to create a chat completion using DeepSeek models (deepseek-chat or deepseek-reasoner). Use when you need to generate AI responses to chat conversations. Supports streaming, tool/function calling, and various parameters to control generation behavior (temperature, max_tokens, etc.). |
| `DEEPSEEK_GET_USER_BALANCE` | Get User Balance | Tool to get user's current account balance including granted and topped-up balances with detailed breakdown by currency (CNY or USD). Use when you need to check if the user has sufficient balance for API calls or to view detailed balance information. |
| `DEEPSEEK_LIST_MODELS` | List Models | Tool to list currently available DeepSeek models and provides basic information about each one such as the owner and availability. Use when you need to discover which models are available for API calls. |

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and DeepSeek MCP?

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

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

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