How to connect Elevenlabs MCP with VS Code

VS Code is the most popular code editor out there. With its recent AI makeover, it can do more than just help you write code. You can connect your applications to it and let LLMs automate many of the mundane tasks in your workflow.

In this guide, I will explain how to connect Elevenlabs with VS Code in the most secure and robust way possible via Composio.

Also integrate Elevenlabs with

Why use Composio?

Composio provides:

  • Access to 1,000+ managed apps from a single MCP endpoint. This makes it convenient for agents to run cross-app workflows.
  • 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.
  • Large tool response handling outside the LLM context. This minimizes context bloat from large tool responses.
  • Dynamic just-in-time access to thousands of tools across hundreds of apps. Composio loads the tools your agent needs, so LLMs are not overwhelmed by tools they do not need.

Integrate Elevenlabs MCP with VS Code

1. Install with one click

Click the button below to add Composio to VS Code. You will be prompted to authorize. This requires VS Code 1.99+ with GitHub Copilot.

+Install in VS Code

2. Or add manually

Open or create .vscode/mcp.json in your project root and add the following configuration:

bash
{
  "servers": {
    "composio": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

3. Authorize

Click the install button to authorize VS Code to connect to Composio. VS Code will detect OAuth and prompt you to sign in.

A browser window will open to authorize.

4. Authenticate Elevenlabs and start working

Back in VS Code chat, ask the agent to connect to Elevenlabs or give it any Elevenlabs-related task.

For example, ask it to:

  • "Convert this chapter text to audio"
  • "Create a custom project for your audiobook"
  • "Add a new pronunciation rule for this word"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access to Elevenlabs.

That is it. Composio tools are now available in VS Code, and your Elevenlabs account is ready to use.

Way Forward

Now that Elevenlabs is connected, extend your setup by connecting the other apps you already use every day, so your agent can run true cross-app workflows end to end.

  • Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically.
  • Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works.
  • Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs.
  • Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps.
  • Connect HubSpot or Salesforce to log customer context, update records, and draft follow-ups.

Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single MCP endpoint, your agent can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation.

How to build Elevenlabs MCP Agent with another framework

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Elevenlabs MCP?

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

Can I use Tool Router MCP with VS Code?

Yes, you can. VS Code 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 Elevenlabs tools.

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

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