## Introduction

Atomic Agent is an open-source AI agent that runs on your machine and supports local models through llama.cpp. Connect it to 1,500+ apps through Composio, including Fal.ai.
This guide uses Atomic Agent's built-in Composio integration. You need Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later, your own Composio API key, and a Fal.ai account. See the [Atomic Agent documentation](https://atomicagent.io/docs/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-docs) for installation instructions.

## TL;DR

### How Atomic Agent connects to Fal.ai
Atomic Agent connects to Composio's Tool Router over Streamable HTTP MCP. It discovers the tools needed for your request, and Composio handles account authentication.
Execution and account-connection tools follow Atomic Agent's configured approval policy. Review any approval prompt before allowing an action on your connected account.

## Connect Fal.ai to Atomic Agent

### Connect Fal.ai to Atomic Agent
- Sign up or sign in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-api-key). Copy your API key.
- In Atomic Agent, open the Integrations tab and select Composio. Select API key, press e, paste the key, and press Enter. The tools become available immediately, without a restart.
- Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Fal.ai. It searches Composio for the right tool.
- On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Fal.ai account, then return to Atomic Agent to continue.
### Headless setup
Add the following line to ~/.atomic-agent/.env, replacing YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY with your key. Start Atomic Agent after saving the file.

```bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY
```

## What is the Fal.ai MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Fal.ai MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Fal.ai account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Fal.ai operations on your behalf.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `FAL_AI_CANCEL_QUEUE_REQUEST` | Cancel Queue Request | Tool to cancel a queued or in-progress request in fal.ai's queue system. Use when you need to stop a request before it completes. Note that cancellation only succeeds if the request hasn't started processing; if already completed, returns an error status. Even with successful cancellation, the request may still execute if it was near the front of the queue. |
| `FAL_AI_ESTIMATE_PRICING` | Estimate Pricing | Tool to estimate pricing for fal.ai model endpoints. Use when you need to calculate expected costs for API calls or unit-based usage across one or more endpoints. |
| `FAL_AI_GET_JWKS` | Get JWKS for Webhook Verification | Tool to retrieve public keys for webhook signature verification. Returns a JSON Web Key Set containing ED25519 public keys. Use when you need to verify webhook signatures from fal.ai. The keys are cacheable but should be refreshed at least every 24 hours. |
| `FAL_AI_GET_MODELS` | Get Models | Tool to discover and search fal.ai model endpoints. Use when you need to list all models, find specific models by ID, or search by category/query. Supports pagination and optional expansion of OpenAPI schemas. |
| `FAL_AI_GET_MODEL_PRICING` | Get Model Pricing | Tool to retrieve unit pricing for model endpoints. Returns pricing information including unit price, billing unit, and currency. Use when you need to check costs for specific fal.ai models. |
| `FAL_AI_GET_QUEUE_REQUEST_RESULT` | Get Queue Request Result | Tool to retrieve the final result of a completed queue request. Use when you need to get the output of a model request that was submitted to the queue and has finished processing. Only works after request status transitions to COMPLETED. |
| `FAL_AI_GET_QUEUE_REQUEST_STATUS_WITH_LOGS` | Get Queue Request Status With Logs | Tool to retrieve the current status of a queued request with detailed logging information. Use when you need to monitor a queued request's progress and access execution logs for debugging or tracking purposes. Logs include timestamps, severity levels, and detailed messages about request processing. |
| `FAL_AI_CHECK_QUEUE_REQUEST_STATUS` | Check Queue Request Status | Tool to check the status of a queued request in fal.ai. Use when you need to monitor the progress of an async request. Returns different information based on status: queue position when IN_QUEUE, logs when IN_PROGRESS or COMPLETED. |
| `FAL_AI_STREAM_REQUEST_STATUS_UPDATES` | Stream Request Status Updates | Tool to stream request status updates via SSE. Use when you need real-time updates on a queued request's processing state. |

## Supported Triggers

## Troubleshooting

### Why is my API key rejected?

Copy the key directly from the Composio dashboard. Atomic Agent requires ASCII characters because it sends the key in an HTTP header. Remove any extra characters introduced when copying.

### Why are Composio tools unavailable after saving a key?

Check that you use Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later and that Composio is enabled in your configuration. A "composio": { "enabled": false } setting disables the integration while keeping the saved key on disk.

### Does Composio have a free plan?

The Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month. Composio-managed OAuth apps have a lower included allowance. See [Composio pricing](/pricing) for the current limits that apply to your connection.

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Use Fal.ai from Atomic Agent
With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with Fal.ai in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Fal.ai MCP?

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Atomic Agent?

Yes, you can. Atomic Agent 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 Fal.ai tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Fal.ai while using Tool Router?

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