Introduction

OpenClaw is the fastest growing agent harness out there, which can work 24/7 to automate almost any kind of tasks. However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Hookdeck with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Hookdeck via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

Why use Composio?

Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:

  • 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.

How to install Hookdeck with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

Copy the setup prompt from the OpenClaw dashboard
  • Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
  • Authenticate Hookdeck from the dashboard
  • Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions.

Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin

1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin

bash
openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-plugin

2. Copy the API Key from dashboard.composio.dev

3. Setup OpenClaw Config

bash
openclaw config set plugins.entries.composio.config.consumerKey "ck_your_key_here"

4. Restart OpenClaw

bash
openclaw gateway restart

5. Go to your chat interface and start asking questions.

6. When prompted, authenticate the app and you're all set.

How It Works

The plugin connects to Composio's MCP server at https://connect.composio.dev/mcp and registers all available tools directly into the OpenClaw agent. Tools are called by name — no extra search or execute steps needed.

If a tool returns an auth error, the agent will prompt you to connect that toolkit at dashboard.composio.dev.

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

The Hookdeck MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Hookdeck account. It provides structured and secure access to your webhook management platform, so your agent can perform actions like routing webhooks, managing events, configuring sources and destinations, and automating retries or cancellations on your behalf.

  • Automated event management: Let your agent bulk cancel or retry multiple webhook events, keeping your pipeline clean and efficient without manual intervention.
  • Source and destination setup: Have the agent create, configure, and manage Hookdeck sources and destinations for seamless webhook routing between services.
  • Connection orchestration: Direct your agent to establish new connections between sources and destinations, ensuring events flow exactly where you want them to go.
  • Payload transformation: Empower the agent to create custom payload transformations using JavaScript, modifying webhook data before it reaches your endpoints.
  • Bookmarking and cleanup: Ask your agent to bookmark important events for quick access or delete outdated bookmarks to keep your workspace organized.

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Hookdeck MCP?

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

Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenClaw?

Yes, you can. OpenClaw 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 Hookdeck tools.

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

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