## 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 Dify.
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 Dify account. See the [Atomic Agent documentation](https://atomicagent.io/docs/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-docs) for installation instructions.

## TL;DR

### How Atomic Agent connects to Dify
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 Dify to Atomic Agent

### Connect Dify 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 Dify. It searches Composio for the right tool.
- On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Dify 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 Dify MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Dify MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Dify account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Dify operations on your behalf.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `DIFY_GET_WORKFLOW_APP_CONFIGURATION` | Get Workflow App Configuration | Return the connected Workflow app's identity, declared input form and upload limits, tool icons, and hosted-site settings. If the app is unpublished, the response identifies the unavailable parameters section while preserving the other metadata. |
| `DIFY_GET_WORKFLOW_RUN` | Get Workflow Run | Return one workflow run's status, inputs, arbitrary outputs, error, and execution metrics by run ID. |
| `DIFY_LIST_WORKFLOW_RUNS` | List Workflow Runs | Return one page of run summaries for the connected Workflow app, with filters and a continuation cursor for older or additional runs. |
| `DIFY_RUN_WORKFLOW` | Run Workflow | Run the connected app's latest published workflow in blocking mode and return its app-defined outputs. Inspect the app configuration first: the configured workflow may perform irreversible external side effects. |

## Supported Triggers

None listed.

## 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](/pricing) for the current limits that apply to your connection.

## Conclusion

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

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

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

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