## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Docsautomator to the Claude Agent SDK using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Docsautomator agent that can generate an invoice from the 'invoice' template, create onboarding document for new employee, list all docsautomator templates available to me through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your Claude Agent SDK agent real control over a Docsautomator account through Composio's Docsautomator MCP server.
Before we dive in, let's take a quick look at the key ideas and tools involved.

## TL;DR

Here's what you'll learn:
- Get and set up your Claude/Anthropic and Composio API keys
- Install the necessary dependencies
- Initialize Composio and create a Tool Router session for Docsautomator
- Configure an AI agent that can use Docsautomator as a tool
- Run a live chat session where you can ask the agent to perform Docsautomator operations

## What is Claude Agent SDK?

The Claude Agent SDK is Anthropic's official framework for building AI agents powered by Claude. It provides a streamlined interface for creating agents with MCP tool support and conversation management.
Key features include:
- Native MCP Support: Built-in support for Model Context Protocol servers
- Permission Modes: Control tool execution permissions
- Streaming Responses: Real-time response streaming for interactive applications
- Context Manager: Clean async context management for sessions

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

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

## Supported Tools

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Docsautomator MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Docsautomator. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Docsautomator operations on your behalf through a secure, permission-based interface.
With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster.

## Step-by-step Guide

### 1. Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:
- Composio API Key and Claude/Anthropic API Key
- Primary know-how of Claude Agents SDK
- A Docsautomator account
- Some knowledge of Python

### 1. Getting API Keys for Claude/Anthropic and Composio

Claude/Anthropic API Key
- Go to the [Anthropic Console](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/organization/api-keys) and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models.
- Keep the API key safe.
Composio API Key
- Log in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs).
- Navigate to your API settings and generate a new API key.
- Store this key securely as you'll need it for authentication.

### 2. Install dependencies

No description provided.
```python
pip install composio-anthropic claude-agent-sdk python-dotenv
```

```typescript
npm install @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk @composio/core dotenv
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file in your project root.
What's happening:
- COMPOSIO_API_KEY authenticates with Composio
- USER_ID identifies the user for session management
- ANTHROPIC_API_KEY authenticates with Anthropic/Claude
```bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here
USER_ID=your_user_id_here
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_anthropic_api_key_here
```

### 4. Import dependencies

No description provided.
```python
import asyncio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions
import os
from composio import Composio
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()
```

```typescript
import 'dotenv/config';
import readline from 'node:readline';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { query, type Options } from "@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk";

dotenv.config();
```

    composio = Composio(api_key=api_key)

    # Create Tool Router session for Docsautomator
    mcp_server = composio.create(
        user_id=os.getenv("USER_ID"),
        toolkits=["docsautomator"]
    )

    url = mcp_server.mcp.url

    if not url:
        raise ValueError("Session URL not found")
```

```typescript

## Conclusion

You've successfully built a Claude Agent SDK agent that can interact with Docsautomator through Composio's Tool Router.
Key features:
- Native MCP support through Claude's agent framework
- Streaming responses for real-time interaction
- Permission bypass for smooth automated workflows
You can extend this by adding more toolkits, implementing custom business logic, or building a web interface around the agent.

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

With a standalone Docsautomator MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Docsautomator tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Docsautomator and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Claude Agent SDK?

Yes, you can. Claude Agent SDK 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 Docsautomator tools.

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

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