## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Dreamstudio to AutoGen using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Dreamstudio agent that can transform your photo into a fantasy landscape, list all available dreamstudio image engines, show your dreamstudio credit balance through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your AutoGen agent real control over a Dreamstudio account through Composio's Dreamstudio 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 OpenAI and Composio API keys
- Install the required dependencies for Autogen and Composio
- Initialize Composio and create a Tool Router session for Dreamstudio
- Wire that MCP URL into Autogen using McpWorkbench and StreamableHttpServerParams
- Configure an Autogen AssistantAgent that can call Dreamstudio tools
- Run a live chat loop where you ask the agent to perform Dreamstudio operations

## What is AutoGen?

Autogen is a framework for building multi-agent conversational AI systems from Microsoft. It enables you to create agents that can collaborate, use tools, and maintain complex workflows.
Key features include:
- Multi-Agent Systems: Build collaborative agent workflows
- MCP Workbench: Native support for Model Context Protocol tools
- Streaming HTTP: Connect to external services through streamable HTTP
- AssistantAgent: Pre-built agent class for tool-using assistants

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

The Dreamstudio MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Dreamstudio account. It provides structured and secure access to your generative image tools, so your agent can generate images, edit visuals, check available engines, and monitor your account balance—all on your behalf.
- Image generation from prompts or reference: Ask your agent to create unique images based on detailed text prompts or by transforming existing images using Dreamstudio's powerful engines.
- Engine discovery and selection: Effortlessly retrieve a list of available Dreamstudio engines so your agent can choose the best model for your creative task.
- User account insights: Have your agent fetch your Dreamstudio account details, including user ID, email, and profile information, whenever you need them.
- Real-time credit and usage monitoring: Let your agent check your current credit balance and track usage to ensure you always have resources for your next creative project.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `DREAMSTUDIO_GENERATE_IMAGE_FROM_IMAGE` | Generate Image from Image | Tool to generate a new image from an initial image and text prompts. Use after you have a reference image and want to transform it via text guidance. |
| `DREAMSTUDIO_GENERATE_IMAGE_FROM_TEXT` | Generate Image from Text | Generate images from text prompts using Stability AI's text-to-image models. Use when you need to create images from textual descriptions without a reference image. Supports multiple prompts with weights, configurable dimensions, and various generation parameters. |
| `DREAMSTUDIO_LIST_ENGINES` | List Engines | List all available DreamStudio/Stability AI engines accessible with your API key. This action retrieves all AI models (engines) you can use for image generation and other tasks. Common engines include Stable Diffusion XL and various Stable Diffusion versions. Use this action to: - Discover which engines are available to your account - Get engine IDs needed for image generation requests - Check engine types and capabilities No parameters required - simply call to get the complete list of accessible engines. Using an unsupported engine_id in generation requests will cause failures; engines also vary in supported image sizes (typically capped near 1024x1024) and quality for specific tasks. |
| `DREAMSTUDIO_USER_ACCOUNT` | User Account | Retrieves authenticated user's account information from Stability AI. Returns user ID, email, organization memberships, and profile picture. No parameters required - uses authenticated session. |
| `DREAMSTUDIO_USER_BALANCE` | DreamStudio User Balance | Retrieves the user's current credit balance from their DreamStudio account. Use this tool to check how many credits are available before generating images or to monitor remaining credits after API operations. Credits are consumed when generating images through the Stability AI API. For large or high-resolution batch generation, verify sufficient balance first — insufficient credits will cause failures mid-run. |

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

The Dreamstudio MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agents and assistants directly to Dreamstudio. Instead of manually wiring Dreamstudio APIs, OAuth, and scopes yourself, you get a structured, tool-based interface that an LLM can call safely.
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

You will need:
- A Composio API key
- An OpenAI API key (used by Autogen's OpenAIChatCompletionClient)
- A Dreamstudio account you can connect to Composio
- Some basic familiarity with Autogen and Python async

### 1. Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key
- Go to the [OpenAI dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys) and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider.
- 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

Install Composio, Autogen extensions, and dotenv.
What's happening:
- composio connects your agent to Dreamstudio via MCP
- autogen-agentchat provides the AssistantAgent class
- autogen-ext-openai provides the OpenAI model client
- autogen-ext-tools provides MCP workbench support
```bash
pip install composio python-dotenv
pip install autogen-agentchat autogen-ext-openai autogen-ext-tools
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file in your project folder.
What's happening:
- COMPOSIO_API_KEY is required to talk to Composio
- OPENAI_API_KEY is used by Autogen's OpenAI client
- USER_ID is how Composio identifies which user's Dreamstudio connections to use
```bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-composio-api-key
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key
USER_ID=your-user-identifier@example.com
```

### 4. Import dependencies and create Tool Router session

What's happening:
- load_dotenv() reads your .env file
- Composio(api_key=...) initializes the SDK
- create(...) creates a Tool Router session that exposes Dreamstudio tools
- session.mcp.url is the MCP endpoint that Autogen will connect to
```python
import asyncio
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from composio import Composio

from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import McpWorkbench, StreamableHttpServerParams

load_dotenv()

async def main():
    # Initialize Composio and create a Dreamstudio session
    composio = Composio(api_key=os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY"))
    session = composio.create(
        user_id=os.getenv("USER_ID"),
        toolkits=["dreamstudio"]
    )
    url = session.mcp.url
```

### 5. Configure MCP parameters for Autogen

Autogen expects parameters describing how to talk to the MCP server. That is what StreamableHttpServerParams is for.
What's happening:
- url points to the Tool Router MCP endpoint from Composio
- timeout is the HTTP timeout for requests
- sse_read_timeout controls how long to wait when streaming responses
- terminate_on_close=True cleans up the MCP server process when the workbench is closed
```python
# Configure MCP server parameters for Streamable HTTP
server_params = StreamableHttpServerParams(
    url=url,
    timeout=30.0,
    sse_read_timeout=300.0,
    terminate_on_close=True,
    headers={"x-api-key": os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")}
)
```

### 6. Create the model client and agent

What's happening:
- OpenAIChatCompletionClient wraps the OpenAI model for Autogen
- McpWorkbench connects the agent to the MCP tools
- AssistantAgent is configured with the Dreamstudio tools from the workbench
```python
# Create model client
model_client = OpenAIChatCompletionClient(
    model="gpt-5",
    api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")
)

# Use McpWorkbench as context manager
async with McpWorkbench(server_params) as workbench:
    # Create Dreamstudio assistant agent with MCP tools
    agent = AssistantAgent(
        name="dreamstudio_assistant",
        description="An AI assistant that helps with Dreamstudio operations.",
        model_client=model_client,
        workbench=workbench,
        model_client_stream=True,
        max_tool_iterations=10
    )
```

### 7. Run the interactive chat loop

What's happening:
- The script prompts you in a loop with You:
- Autogen passes your input to the model, which decides which Dreamstudio tools to call via MCP
- agent.run_stream(...) yields streaming messages as the agent thinks and calls tools
- Typing exit, quit, or bye ends the loop
```python
print("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end the conversation.\n")
print("Ask any Dreamstudio related question or task to the agent.\n")

# Conversation loop
while True:
    user_input = input("You: ").strip()

    if user_input.lower() in ["exit", "quit", "bye"]:
        print("\nGoodbye!")
        break

    if not user_input:
        continue

    print("\nAgent is thinking...\n")

    # Run the agent with streaming
    try:
        response_text = ""
        async for message in agent.run_stream(task=user_input):
            if hasattr(message, "content") and message.content:
                response_text = message.content

        # Print the final response
        if response_text:
            print(f"Agent: {response_text}\n")
        else:
            print("Agent: I encountered an issue processing your request.\n")

    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Agent: Sorry, I encountered an error: {str(e)}\n")
```

## Complete Code

```python
import asyncio
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

        toolkits=["dreamstudio"]
    )
    url = session.mcp.url

    # Configure MCP server parameters for Streamable HTTP
    server_params = StreamableHttpServerParams(
        url=url,
        timeout=30.0,
        sse_read_timeout=300.0,
        terminate_on_close=True,
        headers={"x-api-key": os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")}
    )

    # Create model client
    model_client = OpenAIChatCompletionClient(
        model="gpt-5",
        api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")
    )

    # Use McpWorkbench as context manager
    async with McpWorkbench(server_params) as workbench:
        # Create Dreamstudio assistant agent with MCP tools
        agent = AssistantAgent(
            name="dreamstudio_assistant",
            description="An AI assistant that helps with Dreamstudio operations.",
            model_client=model_client,
            workbench=workbench,
            model_client_stream=True,
            max_tool_iterations=10
        )

        print("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end the conversation.\n")
        print("Ask any Dreamstudio related question or task to the agent.\n")

        # Conversation loop
        while True:
            user_input = input("You: ").strip()

            if user_input.lower() in ['exit', 'quit', 'bye']:
                print("\nGoodbye!")
                break

            if not user_input:
                continue

            print("\nAgent is thinking...\n")

            # Run the agent with streaming
            try:
                response_text = ""
                async for message in agent.run_stream(task=user_input):
                    if hasattr(message, 'content') and message.content:
                        response_text = message.content

                # Print the final response
                if response_text:
                    print(f"Agent: {response_text}\n")
                else:
                    print("Agent: I encountered an issue processing your request.\n")

            except Exception as e:
                print(f"Agent: Sorry, I encountered an error: {str(e)}\n")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())
```

## Conclusion

You now have an Autogen assistant wired into Dreamstudio through Composio's Tool Router and MCP. From here you can:
- Add more toolkits to the toolkits list, for example notion or hubspot
- Refine the agent description to point it at specific workflows
- Wrap this script behind a UI, Slack bot, or internal tool
Once the pattern is clear for Dreamstudio, you can reuse the same structure for other MCP-enabled apps with minimal code changes.

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Autogen?

Yes, you can. Autogen 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 Dreamstudio tools.

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

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