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 Dock certs.

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 Dock certs account. See the Atomic Agent documentation for installation instructions.

How Atomic Agent connects to Dock certs

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

The Dock certs MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Dock certs account. It provides structured and secure access to your verifiable credentials and decentralized identity management, so your agent can perform actions like issuing credentials, managing API keys, retrieving credential details, and automating webhook notifications on your behalf.

  • Instant credential issuance and management: Easily have your agent issue new verifiable credentials, retrieve detailed credential metadata, or delete outdated credentials as needed.
  • Secure API key lifecycle management: Direct your agent to create, list, retrieve, or delete API keys, ensuring secure programmatic access for your organization.
  • Automated webhook setup and oversight: Let your agent create or delete webhook endpoints, so you can receive real-time event notifications from Dock certs to your own systems.
  • Credential retrieval and decryption: Ask your agent to fetch specific credentials by ID, with options for full retrieval if protected by a password, ensuring secure and flexible access.
  • Tag and metadata cleanup: Enable your agent to delete obsolete tags or credential metadata, keeping your Dock certs environment organized and up to date.

Use Dock certs from Atomic Agent

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

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

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