And MCP makes the experience even better. With Emelia MCP integration, you can draft, triage, summarise emails, and much more, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer. ## Also integrate Emelia with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/claude-cowork) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/emelia/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### Why use Composio? Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get: - CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling. - Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise context rot. - Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need. ## Connect Emelia to Codex ### How to install Emelia MCP in Codex ### Run the setup command Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex. ```bash codex mcp add composio --url https://connect.composio.dev/mcp ``` ## What is the Emelia MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Emelia MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Emelia account. It provides structured and secure access to your B2B outreach operations, so your agent can perform actions like launching campaigns, managing contacts, finding prospect emails, and tracking outreach activities on your behalf. - Automated campaign creation and management: Instruct your agent to create new email or LinkedIn campaigns, add contacts, or remove contacts from campaigns to keep your outreach efforts streamlined and organized. - Prospect email discovery: Have your agent find verified email addresses for specific contacts using full name and company details, accelerating your lead generation process. - Contact blacklisting and compliance: Direct your agent to add contacts to the blacklist, ensuring that no further emails are sent and helping you stay compliant with outreach best practices. - Real-time campaign activity tracking: Retrieve detailed campaign activities and create webhooks to monitor engagement, so you’re always up to date on your outreach performance. - Webhook automation for event-driven workflows: Let your agent create or delete webhooks to automate follow-ups and synchronize campaign updates across your sales stack. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `EMELIA_ADD_CONTACT_TO_BLACKLIST` | Add Contact to Blacklist | Tool to add a contact to the email blacklist.

With a standalone Emelia MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Emelia tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Emelia and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Codex? Yes, you can. Codex 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 Emelia tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Emelia while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Emelia 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 Emelia data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
