## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Emailable to the OpenAI Agents SDK using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Emailable agent that can check if this email address is valid, verify a list of emails before newsletter send, get your emailable account credit balance through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your OpenAI Agents SDK agent real control over a Emailable account through Composio's Emailable 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 necessary dependencies
- Initialize Composio and create a Tool Router session for Emailable
- Configure an AI agent that can use Emailable as a tool
- Run a live chat session where you can ask the agent to perform Emailable operations

## What is OpenAI Agents SDK?

The OpenAI Agents SDK is a lightweight framework for building AI agents that can use tools and maintain conversation state. It provides a simple interface for creating agents with hosted MCP tool support.
Key features include:
- Hosted MCP Tools: Connect to external services through hosted MCP endpoints
- SQLite Sessions: Persist conversation history across interactions
- Simple API: Clean interface with Agent, Runner, and tool configuration
- Streaming Support: Real-time response streaming for interactive applications

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

The Emailable MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Emailable account. It provides structured and secure access to your email verification services, so your agent can perform actions like real-time email validation, bulk batch checks, account monitoring, and verification status tracking on your behalf.
- Instant email address verification: Ask your agent to check if a single email address is valid, risky, or deliverable before you send that important message.
- Bulk batch email validation: Have the agent verify thousands of email addresses at once for newsletters, campaigns, or CRM imports, ensuring high deliverability rates.
- Batch job status monitoring: Let your agent track the progress and results of ongoing or completed batch verification jobs for timely follow-up actions.
- Account status and credit checks: Retrieve your Emailable account details, including owner info and available credits, to make sure you never run out of verification capacity.
- Seamless OAuth onboarding: Initiate the OAuth flow to securely grant your agent access to Emailable whenever needed, all without manual credential handling.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `EMAILABLE_GET_ACCOUNT_INFO` | Get Account Info | Tool to retrieve account information including owner email and available credits. Use when you need to confirm account status before sending email verifications. |
| `EMAILABLE_GET_BATCH_STATUS` | Get Batch Status | Tool to get the status and results of a batch verification job. Use after submitting a batch to check its progress. |
| `EMAILABLE_O_AUTH_AUTHORIZE` | Build OAuth Authorization URL | Build an OAuth 2.0 authorization URL for the Emailable authorization code flow. Returns a URL to redirect users to for authorization. Upon successful authorization, users are redirected to your redirect_uri with an authorization code (valid for 10 minutes) that can be exchanged for access tokens. |
| `EMAILABLE_VERIFY_BATCH_EMAILS` | Verify Batch Emails | Submit a batch of email addresses for asynchronous verification. Returns a batch ID immediately. Use this for bulk email validation (2 to 50,000 emails). For single emails, use EMAILABLE_VERIFY_EMAIL instead. The batch is processed asynchronously - use EMAILABLE_GET_BATCH_STATUS with the returned batch ID to check progress and retrieve verification results. |
| `EMAILABLE_VERIFY_EMAIL` | Verify Email | Tool to verify a single email address and return detailed results. Use when you need to check email deliverability and risk. |

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

The Emailable MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Emailable. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Emailable 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 OpenAI API Key
- Primary know-how of OpenAI Agents SDK
- A live Emailable project
- Some knowledge of Python or Typescript

### 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).
- Go to Settings and copy your API key.

### 2. Install dependencies

Install the Composio SDK and the OpenAI Agents SDK.
```python
pip install composio_openai_agents openai-agents python-dotenv
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai-agents @openai/agents dotenv
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file and add your OpenAI and Composio API keys.
```bash
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...your-api-key
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-api-key
USER_ID=composio_user@gmail.com
```

### 4. Import dependencies

What's happening:
- You're importing all necessary libraries.
- The Composio and OpenAIAgentsProvider classes are imported to connect your OpenAI agent to Composio tools like Emailable.
```python
import asyncio
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

from composio import Composio
from composio_openai_agents import OpenAIAgentsProvider
from agents import Agent, Runner, HostedMCPTool, SQLiteSession
```

```typescript
import 'dotenv/config';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIAgentsProvider } from '@composio/openai-agents';
import { Agent, hostedMcpTool, run, OpenAIConversationsSession } from '@openai/agents';
import * as readline from 'readline';
```

### 5. Set up the Composio instance

No description provided.
```python
load_dotenv()

api_key = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
user_id = os.getenv("USER_ID")

if not api_key:
    raise RuntimeError("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key")

# Initialize Composio
composio = Composio(api_key=api_key, provider=OpenAIAgentsProvider())
```

```typescript
dotenv.config();

const composioApiKey = process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY;
const userId = process.env.USER_ID;

if (!composioApiKey) {
  throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key');
}
if (!userId) {
  throw new Error('USER_ID is not set');
}

// Initialize Composio
const composio = new Composio({
  apiKey: composioApiKey,
  provider: new OpenAIAgentsProvider(),
});
```

### 6. Create a Tool Router session

What is happening:
- You give the Tool Router the user id and the toolkits you want available. Here, it is only emailable.
- The router checks the user's Emailable connection and prepares the MCP endpoint.
- The returned session.mcp.url is the MCP URL that your agent will use to access Emailable.
- This approach keeps things lightweight and lets the agent request Emailable tools only when needed during the conversation.
```python
# Create a Emailable Tool Router session
session = composio.create(
    user_id=user_id,
    toolkits=["emailable"]
)

mcp_url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
// Create Tool Router session for Emailable
const session = await composio.create(userId as string, {
  toolkits: ['emailable'],
});
const mcpUrl = session.mcp.url;
```

### 7. Configure the agent

No description provided.
```python
# Configure agent with MCP tool
agent = Agent(
    name="Assistant",
    model="gpt-5",
    instructions=(
        "You are a helpful assistant that can access Emailable. "
        "Help users perform Emailable operations through natural language."
    ),
    tools=[
        HostedMCPTool(
            tool_config={
                "type": "mcp",
                "server_label": "tool_router",
                "server_url": mcp_url,
                "headers": {"x-api-key": api_key},
                "require_approval": "never",
            }
        )
    ],
)
```

```typescript
// Configure agent with MCP tool
const agent = new Agent({
  name: 'Assistant',
  model: 'gpt-5',
  instructions:
    'You are a helpful assistant that can access Emailable. Help users perform Emailable operations through natural language.',
  tools: [
    hostedMcpTool({
      serverLabel: 'tool_router',
      serverUrl: mcpUrl,
      headers: { 'x-api-key': composioApiKey },
      requireApproval: 'never',
    }),
  ],
});
```

## Conclusion

This was a starter code for integrating Emailable MCP with OpenAI Agents SDK to build a functional AI agent that can interact with Emailable.
Key features:
- Hosted MCP tool integration through Composio's Tool Router
- SQLite session persistence for conversation history
- Simple async chat loop for interactive testing
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 Emailable MCP?

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes, you can. OpenAI Agents 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 Emailable tools.

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

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