You can do this in two different ways: - Via [Composio Connect](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=claude-code&utm_content=composio_connect&next=%2F~%2Forg%2Fconnect%2Fclients%2Fclaude-code) - Direct and easiest approach - Via [Composio SDK](https://docs.composio.dev/docs?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=claude-code&utm_content=composio_sdk) - Programmatic approach with more control ## Also integrate Expofp with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR - Only one MCP URL to connect multiple apps with Claude Code with zero auth hassles. - 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. - Handling Large tool responses out of LLM context to minimize 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 LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need. ## Connect Expofp to Claude Code ### Connecting Expofp to Claude Code using Composio 1. Add the Composio MCP to Claude ```bash claude mcp add --scope user --transport http composio https://connect.composio.dev/mcp ``` ## What is Claude Code? Claude Code is Anthropic's command line developer tool that lets you use Claude directly inside your terminal. Instead of switching between your editor, browser, and chat, you can stay in your project folder and ask Claude to help you build, debug, refactor, and understand code right where you're working. Key features include: - Terminal-Native Experience: Work with Claude directly in your command line without switching contexts - MCP Support: Built-in support for Model Context Protocol servers to extend Claude's capabilities - Project Context: Claude understands your project structure and can read, write, and modify files - Interactive Development: Ask questions, debug code, and get help in real-time while coding - Multi-Platform: Works on macOS, Linux, WSL, and Windows ## What is the Expofp MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Expofp MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Expofp account. It provides structured and secure access to your expo and floor plan data, so your agent can manage categories, list expo details, and streamline event organization tasks for you. - Seamless expo management: Instantly list all expos linked to your Expofp account, making it easy to keep track of multiple events. - Effortless category creation: Direct your agent to add new categories to any expo, supporting better organization and event structure in seconds. - Category updates and edits: Quickly update existing category names or details for any event, so your event structure always matches your latest needs. - Streamlined category removal: Have the agent remove outdated or unnecessary categories from your expos, keeping your event data clean and relevant. - Comprehensive extras listing: Retrieve all extras for a specific expo, helping you review and manage additional event options or features at a glance. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `EXPOFP_ADD_CATEGORY` | Add Category | Tool to add a new category to an expo. Use when you have both the expo event ID and a valid API token. Example: "Add category 'Keynotes' to event 2655." | | `EXPOFP_DELETE_EXHIBITOR` | Delete Exhibitor | Tool to delete an exhibitor from an expo by their ID. Use when you have the exhibitor ID and a valid API token. | | `EXPOFP_DELETE_SESSION_SPEAKERS` | Delete Session Speakers | Tool to delete session speakers by their IDs. Use when you need to remove one or more session speakers from an expo. | | `EXPOFP_DELETE_SESSION_TRACKS` | Delete Session Tracks | Tool to delete session tracks by IDs from an expo.

Use when you need to check the status of an existing archive without triggering a new build. | | `EXPOFP_GET_OR_CREATE_OFFLINE_ARCHIVE` | Get or Create Offline Archive | Retrieve the offline archive state for a specific expo version. If the archive does not exist and the requested version is 'latest', the server automatically starts the creation process and returns the build state. Use this action when you need to download an expo for offline use or check the status of an ongoing archive build. The optional waitseconds parameter enables server-side polling for synchronous workflows. | | `EXPOFP_GET_SESSION_TRACKS` | Get Session Tracks | Retrieve all session tracks for a specific expo event. Session tracks are categories or themes used to organize sessions within an expo, such as "Technology", "Marketing", "Product", etc. This action returns the complete list of tracks with their IDs, names, external IDs, and color codes. Use this action when you need to categorize or filter sessions by track. Example: "Get all session tracks for expo 32971" | | `EXPOFP_LIST_ALL_EXPO_EXTRAS` | List All Expo Extras | Retrieves all extras (additional services/items) available for a specific expo event, including general extras and booth-specific extras with exhibitor details. Use this action to get a comprehensive list of purchasable extras for an event. Example: "List all extras for event 2655." | | `EXPOFP_LIST_ALL_EXPOS` | List All Expos | Retrieve all expos (events/exhibitions) accessible with the authenticated ExpoFP account. This action fetches a complete list of expos with their details including event IDs, names, descriptions, dates, time zones, locations, and status. The expo IDs returned can be used with other ExpofP actions that require an event ID parameter. No input parameters are required - the action uses the authentication token to determine which expos the user has access to. Example usage: - "List all my expos" - "Show me all available events" - "Get all expo IDs" | | `EXPOFP_LIST_CATEGORIES` | List Categories | Retrieve all categories for a specific expo event. This action fetches a complete list of categories with their IDs and names for a given expo. The category IDs returned can be used with other ExpofP actions that require a category ID parameter (e.g., updating or removing categories). Use this action when you need to see all categories configured for an expo. Example: "List all categories for event 32971" or "Show me categories for expo 2655". | | `EXPOFP_LIST_EXHIBITORS` | Bulk Read Exhibitors | Tool to bulk read exhibitors from an expo with customizable response template. This action retrieves all exhibitors from a specified expo. You can optionally provide a response template to control which fields are returned, or pass null/omit the template to receive all available exhibitor data.

Use when you have the category ID and a valid API token. Example: "Update category #1 name to 'Category Blue'." | | `EXPOFP_UPDATE_EXHIBITOR` | Update Exhibitor | Tool to update an existing exhibitor. Use when you have the exhibitor ID and want to modify exhibitor details. Only fields provided in the request are updated; undefined fields remain unchanged. | | `EXPOFP_UPSERT_SESSIONS` | Upsert Sessions | Tool to create or update sessions in bulk for an expo event. Sessions are upserted based on externalId if provided - existing sessions with matching externalId are updated, otherwise new sessions are created. Use this action when you need to add new sessions to an event or update existing sessions. Example: "Add a keynote session to expo 32971" or "Update session details for external ID 'session-001'." | | `EXPOFP_UPSERT_SESSION_TRACKS` | Upsert Session Tracks | Tool to create or update session tracks in bulk for an expo. Use when you need to add new tracks or modify existing ones. Provide an id in the track object to update; omit it to create new. Example: "Create a new session track called 'Workshops' with color #FF5733." | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Expofp MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects Claude Code (and other AI assistants like Claude and Cursor) directly to your Expofp account. It provides structured and secure access so Claude can perform Expofp operations on your behalf. 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: - Claude Pro, Max, or API billing enabled Anthropic account - Composio API Key - A Expofp account - Basic knowledge of Python or TypeScript ### 1. Install Claude Code To install Claude Code, use one of the following methods based on your operating system: ```bash # macOS, Linux, WSL curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash # Windows PowerShell irm https://claude.ai/install.ps1 | iex # Windows CMD curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.cmd -o install.cmd && install.cmd && del install.cmd ``` ### 2. Set up Claude Code Open a terminal, go to your project folder, and start Claude Code: - Claude Code will open in your terminal - Follow the prompts to sign in with your Anthropic account - Complete the authentication flow - Once authenticated, you can start using Claude Code ```bash cd your-project-folder claude ``` ### 3. Set up environment variables Create a .env file in your project root with the following variables: - COMPOSIO_API_KEY authenticates with Composio (get it from [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=claude-code&utm_content=api_key&next=%2F~%2Forg%2Fconnect%2Fclients%2Fclaude-code)) - USER_ID identifies the user for session management (use any unique identifier) ```bash COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here USER_ID=your_user_id_here ``` ### 4. Install Composio library No description provided. ```python pip install composio-core python-dotenv ``` ```typescript npm install @composio/core dotenv ``` ### 5. Generate Composio MCP URL No description provided. ```python import os from composio import Composio from dotenv import load_dotenv load_dotenv() COMPOSIO_API_KEY = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY") USER_ID = os.getenv("USER_ID") composio_client = Composio(api_key=COMPOSIO_API_KEY) composio_session = composio_client.create( user_id=USER_ID, toolkits=["expofp"], ) COMPOSIO_MCP_URL = composio_session.mcp.url print(f"MCP URL: {COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}") print(f"\nUse this command to add to Claude Code:") print(f'claude mcp add --transport http expofp-composio "{COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}" --headers "X-API-Key:{COMPOSIO_API_KEY}"') ``` ```typescript import 'dotenv/config'; import { Composio } from '@composio/core'; const { COMPOSIO_API_KEY, USER_ID } = process.env; if (!COMPOSIO_API_KEY || !USER_ID) { throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID required in .env'); } const composioClient = new Composio({ apiKey: COMPOSIO_API_KEY }); const composioSession = await composioClient.create(USER_ID, { toolkits: ['expofp'], }); const composioMcpUrl = composioSession?.mcp.url; console.log(`MCP URL: ${composioMcpUrl}`); console.log(`\nUse this command to add to Claude Code:`); console.log(`claude mcp add --transport http expofp-composio "${composioMcpUrl}" --headers "X-API-Key:${COMPOSIO_API_KEY}"`); ``` ### 6. Run the script and copy the MCP URL No description provided. ```python python generate_mcp_url.py ``` ```typescript node --loader ts-node/esm generate_mcp_url.ts # or if using tsx tsx generate_mcp_url.ts ``` ### 7. Add Expofp MCP to Claude Code In your terminal, add the MCP server using the command from the previous step. The command format is: - claude mcp add registers a new MCP server with Claude Code - --transport http specifies that this is an HTTP-based MCP server - The server name (expofp-composio) is how you'll reference it - The URL points to your Composio Tool Router session - --headers includes your Composio API key for authentication After running the command, close the current Claude Code session and start a new one for the changes to take effect. ```bash claude mcp add --transport http expofp-composio "YOUR_MCP_URL_HERE" --headers "X-API-Key:YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY" # Then restart Claude Code exit claude ``` ### 8. Verify the installation Check that your Expofp MCP server is properly configured. - This command lists all MCP servers registered with Claude Code - You should see your expofp-composio entry in the list - This confirms that Claude Code can now access Expofp tools If everything is wired up, you should see your expofp-composio entry listed: ```bash claude mcp list ``` ### 9. Authenticate Expofp The first time you try to use Expofp tools, you'll be prompted to authenticate. - Claude Code will detect that you need to authenticate with Expofp - It will show you an authentication link - Open the link in your browser (or copy/paste it) - Complete the Expofp authorization flow - Return to the terminal and start using Expofp through Claude Code Once authenticated, you can ask Claude Code to perform Expofp operations in natural language. For example: - "Add new category 'Workshops' to event 1023" - "List all extras available for expo 2048" - "Update category #7 name to 'VIP Sessions'" ## Complete Code ```python import os from composio import Composio from dotenv import load_dotenv load_dotenv() COMPOSIO_API_KEY = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY") USER_ID = os.getenv("USER_ID") composio_client = Composio(api_key=COMPOSIO_API_KEY) composio_session = composio_client.create( user_id=USER_ID, toolkits=["expofp"], ) COMPOSIO_MCP_URL = composio_session.mcp.url print(f"MCP URL: {COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}") print(f"\nUse this command to add to Claude Code:") print(f'claude mcp add --transport http expofp-composio "{COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}" --headers "X-API-Key:{COMPOSIO_API_KEY}"') ``` ```typescript import 'dotenv/config'; import { Composio } from '@composio/core'; const { COMPOSIO_API_KEY, USER_ID } = process.env; if (!COMPOSIO_API_KEY || !USER_ID) { throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID required in .env'); } const composioClient = new Composio({ apiKey: COMPOSIO_API_KEY }); const composioSession = await composioClient.create(USER_ID, { toolkits: ['expofp'], }); const composioMcpUrl = composioSession?.mcp.url; console.log(`MCP URL: ${composioMcpUrl}`); console.log(`\nUse this command to add to Claude Code:`); console.log(`claude mcp add --transport http expofp-composio "${composioMcpUrl}" --headers "X-API-Key:${COMPOSIO_API_KEY}"`); ``` ## Conclusion You've successfully integrated Expofp with Claude Code using Composio's MCP server. Now you can interact with Expofp directly from your terminal using natural language commands. Key features of this setup: - Terminal-native experience without switching contexts - Natural language commands for Expofp operations - Secure authentication through Composio's managed MCP - Tool Router for dynamic tool discovery and execution Next steps: - Try asking Claude Code to perform various Expofp operations - Add more toolkits to your Tool Router session for multi-app workflows - Integrate this setup into your development workflow for increased productivity You can extend this by adding more toolkits, implementing custom workflows, or building automation scripts that leverage Claude Code's capabilities. ## How to build Expofp MCP Agent with another framework - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/expofp/framework/crew-ai) ## Related Toolkits - [Google Sheets](https://composio.dev/toolkits/googlesheets) - Google Sheets is a cloud-based spreadsheet tool for real-time collaboration and data analysis.

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