## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Esignatures io to AutoGen using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Esignatures io agent that can send a contract to a new client for signature, list all available contract templates, withdraw a contract that hasn't been signed through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your AutoGen agent real control over a Esignatures io account through Composio's Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io
- Wire that MCP URL into Autogen using McpWorkbench and StreamableHttpServerParams
- Configure an Autogen AssistantAgent that can call Esignatures io tools
- Run a live chat loop where you ask the agent to perform Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Esignatures io MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Esignatures io account. It provides structured and secure access to your contract management tools, so your agent can create contracts, manage templates, handle signer profiles, and control contract workflows seamlessly on your behalf.
- Automated contract creation and sending: Instantly generate and send new contracts for signature using pre-built templates and custom signer details.
- Template management and organization: Allow your agent to create, retrieve, list, and delete contract templates for easy document standardization and reuse.
- Signer profile creation: Effortlessly add new signers to your account, making it simple to initiate or update signature requests as needed.
- Contract withdrawal and workflow control: Instantly withdraw contracts that should no longer be signed, preventing further action on outdated or incorrect documents.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_ADD_TEMPLATE_COLLABORATOR` | Add Template Collaborator | Tool to grant editing access to a template with optional email invitation. Use when you need to add a collaborator who can edit the template. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_COPY_TEMPLATE` | Copy Template | Tool to duplicate an existing template with optional customization. Use when you need to create a new template based on an existing one. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_CREATE_CONTRACT` | Create Contract | Tool to create a new contract using a specified template and signer details. Use after selecting a template when you need to send a contract for signature. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_CREATE_SIGNER` | Create Signer | Add a signer to an existing contract/signature request. This action queues the addition of a new signer to a contract that has already been created. The signer will be added asynchronously and will receive their signing invitation via email. Use this when you need to add additional signers to a contract after it has been created, or when you want to add signers incrementally rather than all at once during contract creation. Note: The API returns a queued status, indicating the operation has been accepted for processing. Adding a new signer does not automatically send an email notification unless the contract settings are configured to do so. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_CREATE_TEMPLATE` | Create Template | Tool to create a new template. Use when you want to register a reusable contract template after defining document elements. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_DELETE_SIGNER` | Delete Signer | Tool to remove a signer from a contract. Use when you need to revoke a signer's access to sign a contract. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_DELETE_TEMPLATE` | Delete Template | Tool to delete a specific template by its ID. Use when you need to remove an unused or outdated template after confirming its ID. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_GENERATE_CONTRACT_PDF_PREVIEW` | Generate Contract PDF Preview | Tool to generate a PDF preview of a contract and receive a webhook notification with a download URL. Use when you need to preview the contract document before or after signing. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_GET_CONTRACT` | Get Contract | Tool to retrieve details of a specific contract by its ID. Returns contract status, signer information, and values entered by signers. Use when you need to check contract status or download signed PDF. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_GET_TEMPLATE` | Get Template | Tool to retrieve details of a specific template by its ID. Use when you need to fetch a template’s metadata after selecting its ID. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_LIST_TEMPLATE_COLLABORATORS` | List Template Collaborators | Tool to retrieve all collaborators with editing access to a template. Returns collaborator IDs, names, emails, and editor URLs. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_LIST_TEMPLATES` | List Templates | Tool to retrieve a list of all templates. Use when you need to browse available templates before selecting one. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_REMOVE_TEMPLATE_COLLABORATOR` | Remove Template Collaborator | Tool to revoke a collaborator's template editing permissions. Use when you need to remove access for a specific collaborator from a template. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_SEND_CONTRACT_TO_SIGNER` | Send Contract to Signer | Tool to send or resend a contract signature request to a specific signer via their configured communication channel. Use when you need to deliver a contract to a signer for their signature. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_UPDATE_SIGNER` | Update Signer | Tool to update contact details of an existing signer on a contract. Use when you need to change a signer's name, email, or mobile number. Note: The contract is not automatically emailed when the signer's information is updated. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_UPDATE_TEMPLATE` | Update Template | Tool to update an existing template's content, title, or labels. Use when you need to modify a template's configuration without creating a new one. |
| `ESIGNATURES_IO_WITHDRAW_CONTRACT` | Withdraw Contract | Tool to withdraw a contract by its ID. Use when you need to prevent further signing of a contract that hasn't been fully signed. |

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

The Esignatures io MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agents and assistants directly to Esignatures io. Instead of manually wiring Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io session
    composio = Composio(api_key=os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY"))
    session = composio.create(
        user_id=os.getenv("USER_ID"),
        toolkits=["esignatures_io"]
    )
    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 Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io assistant agent with MCP tools
    agent = AssistantAgent(
        name="esignatures_io_assistant",
        description="An AI assistant that helps with Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io 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")
```

            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 Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io, 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 Esignatures io MCP?

With a standalone Esignatures io MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Esignatures io tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Esignatures io 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 Esignatures io tools.

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

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