## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Identitycheck to Google ADK using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Identitycheck agent that can check onboarding status for a specific user, list all successful onboardings from last week, fetch document content for a given onboarding through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your Google ADK agent real control over a Identitycheck account through Composio's Identitycheck 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 a Identitycheck account set up and connected to Composio
- Install the Google ADK and Composio packages
- Create a Composio Tool Router session for Identitycheck
- Build an agent that connects to Identitycheck through MCP
- Interact with Identitycheck using natural language

## What is Google ADK?

Google ADK (Agents Development Kit) is Google's framework for building AI agents powered by Gemini models. It provides tools for creating agents that can use external services through the Model Context Protocol.
Key features include:
- Gemini Integration: Native support for Google's Gemini models
- MCP Toolset: Built-in support for Model Context Protocol tools
- Streamable HTTP: Connect to external services through streamable HTTP
- CLI and Web UI: Run agents via command line or web interface

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

The Identitycheck MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Identitycheck account. It provides structured and secure access to your verification workflows, so your agent can perform actions like checking onboarding status, fetching document content, managing notification endpoints, and retrieving configurations on your behalf.
- Instant onboarding status checks: Your agent can retrieve and monitor the progress or result of any onboarding process, keeping you updated in real time.
- Document content retrieval: Effortlessly fetch base64-encoded document content tied to a specific onboarding and document code for further analysis or archiving.
- Comprehensive configuration management: List, fetch, or delete identity verification configurations, giving you full control over your Identitycheck setup without manual dashboard work.
- Notification endpoint oversight: List, fetch, or remove notification endpoints to customize how and where you receive verification event updates.
- API health monitoring: Quickly verify API availability before performing operations, ensuring reliability and uptime for your verification workflows.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `IDENTITYCHECK_CHECK_API_HEALTH` | Check API Health | Performs an API health check to verify endpoint availability and responsiveness. This tool sends an HTTP request to a specified endpoint and interprets a 200 OK response as indicating the API is UP. It handles both JSON and non-JSON responses (including HTML). Use this before other operations to confirm the API is reachable. |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_DELETE_CONFIGURATION` | Delete configuration | Tool to delete an existing configuration. Use when you need to remove a configuration by its unique code. |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_DELETE_NOTIFICATION_ENDPOINT` | Delete Notification Endpoint | Tool to delete a notification endpoint by its unique code. This operation is idempotent - it will succeed whether the endpoint exists or has already been deleted. Use when you need to remove a callback endpoint that receives webhook notifications for identity verification events. |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_FETCH_ALL_CONFIGURATIONS` | Fetch All Configurations | Tool to fetch all existing configurations. Use when you need to list all customer configurations after authentication. |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_FETCH_ALL_NOTIFICATION_ENDPOINTS` | Fetch all notification endpoints | Fetches all configured notification endpoints (webhooks) for the IdentityCheck SDK. Use this to list all callback URLs that receive onboarding event notifications (START_ONBOARDING, END_ONBOARDING). |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_FETCH_CONFIGURATION` | Fetch Configuration | Fetch a specific identity verification configuration by its code. Use this action when you need to: - Retrieve theme customizations (logo, colors, button styles) for a configuration - Get custom wordings/translations defined for different languages - Review configuration options like link validity, email sender name, or ID capture settings - Verify that a configuration exists before using it in an onboarding flow The configuration code is the unique identifier assigned when the configuration was created. |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_FETCH_NOTIFICATION_ENDPOINT` | Fetch Notification Endpoint | Tool to fetch a notification endpoint by its code. Use when you need the current configuration of a specific callback endpoint. |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_FETCH_ONBOARDINGS` | Fetch Onboardings | Retrieves identity verification onboarding sessions with comprehensive filtering and pagination. An onboarding represents a customer's identity verification journey, tracking their progress from link creation through document capture and verification completion. Each onboarding has a unique link sent via email/phone/none, and transitions through states: CREATED → CLICKED → CAPTURE_ONGOING → SUCCESS/ERROR/EXPIRED. Use this to: - Monitor verification sessions by status, date range, or customer identifiers - Track onboarding completion rates and error patterns - Retrieve specific onboardings by UID or business-specific identifiers - Analyze notification delivery methods and their effectiveness Returns paginated results with statistics (total results, distinct users, captures per document). All filter parameters are optional; omit them to retrieve all onboardings. Example: Find all failed verifications due to network errors in January 2024 |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_GET_DOCUMENT_CONTENT` | Get Document Content | Tool to retrieve base64-encoded document content. Use when you have an onboarding UID and document code. |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_RETRIEVE_ONBOARDING_STATUS` | Retrieve Onboarding Status | Retrieve the current status and results of an identity verification onboarding session. Use this tool to check the progress of an onboarding (CREATED, CLICKED, CAPTURE_ONGOING) or get final results (SUCCESS, ERROR, EXPIRED). Returns detailed analysis results, error causes, and CIS export data when available. |
| `IDENTITYCHECK_UPDATE_CONFIGURATION` | Update Configuration | Tool to update an existing configuration. Use when you need to modify properties of a configuration identified by code. |

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

The Identitycheck MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Identitycheck. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Identitycheck operations on your behalf through a secure, permission-based interface.
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:
- A Google API key for Gemini models
- A Composio account and API key
- Python 3.9 or later installed
- Basic familiarity with Python

### 1. Getting API Keys for Google and Composio

Google API Key
- Go to [Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey) and create an API key.
- Copy the key and keep it safe. You will put this in GOOGLE_API_KEY.
Composio API Key and User ID
- Log in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs).
- Go to Settings → API Keys and copy your Composio API key. Use this for COMPOSIO_API_KEY.
- Decide on a stable user identifier to scope sessions, often your email or a user ID. Use this for COMPOSIO_USER_ID.

### 2. Install dependencies

Inside your virtual environment, install the required packages.
What's happening:
- google-adk is Google's Agents Development Kit
- composio connects your agent to Identitycheck via MCP
- python-dotenv loads environment variables
```bash
pip install google-adk composio python-dotenv
```

### 3. Set up ADK project

Set up a new Google ADK project.
What's happening:
- This creates an agent folder with a root agent file and .env file
```bash
adk create my_agent
```

### 4. Set environment variables

Save all your credentials in the .env file.
What's happening:
- GOOGLE_API_KEY authenticates with Google's Gemini models
- COMPOSIO_API_KEY authenticates with Composio
- COMPOSIO_USER_ID identifies the user for session management
```bash
GOOGLE_API_KEY=your-google-api-key
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-composio-api-key
COMPOSIO_USER_ID=your-user-id-or-email
```

### 5. Import modules and validate environment

What's happening:
- os reads environment variables
- Composio is the main Composio SDK client
- GoogleProvider declares that you are using Google ADK as the agent runtime
- Agent is the Google ADK LLM agent class
- McpToolset lets the ADK agent call MCP tools over HTTP
```python
import os
import warnings

from composio import Composio
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from google.adk.agents.llm_agent import Agent
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_session_manager import StreamableHTTPConnectionParams
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_toolset import McpToolset

load_dotenv()

warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", message=".*BaseAuthenticatedTool.*")

GOOGLE_API_KEY = os.getenv("GOOGLE_API_KEY")
COMPOSIO_API_KEY = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
COMPOSIO_USER_ID = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_USER_ID")

if not GOOGLE_API_KEY:
    raise ValueError("GOOGLE_API_KEY is not set in the environment.")
if not COMPOSIO_API_KEY:
    raise ValueError("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set in the environment.")
if not COMPOSIO_USER_ID:
    raise ValueError("COMPOSIO_USER_ID is not set in the environment.")
```

### 6. Create Composio client and Tool Router session

What's happening:
- Authenticates to Composio with your API key
- Declares Google ADK as the provider
- Spins up a short-lived MCP endpoint for your user and selected toolkit
- Stores the MCP HTTP URL for the ADK MCP integration
```python
composio_client = Composio(api_key=COMPOSIO_API_KEY)

composio_session = composio_client.create(
    user_id=COMPOSIO_USER_ID,
    toolkits=["identitycheck"],
)

COMPOSIO_MCP_URL = composio_session.mcp.url,
print(f"Composio MCP URL: {COMPOSIO_MCP_URL}")
```

### 7. Set up the McpToolset and create the Agent

What's happening:
- Connects the ADK agent to the Composio MCP endpoint through McpToolset
- Uses Gemini as the model powering the agent
- Lists exact tool names in instruction to reduce misnamed tool calls
```python
composio_toolset = McpToolset(
    connection_params=StreamableHTTPConnectionParams(
        url=COMPOSIO_MCP_URL,
        headers={"x-api-key": COMPOSIO_API_KEY}
    )
)

root_agent = Agent(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    name="composio_agent",
    description="An agent that uses Composio tools to perform actions.",
    instruction=(
        "You are a helpful assistant connected to Composio. "
        "You have the following tools available: "
        "COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS, COMPOSIO_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL, "
        "COMPOSIO_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS, COMPOSIO_REMOTE_BASH_TOOL, COMPOSIO_REMOTE_WORKBENCH. "
        "Use these tools to help users with Identitycheck operations."
    ),
    tools=[composio_toolset],
)

print("\nAgent setup complete. You can now run this agent directly ;)")
```

### 8. Run the agent

Execute the agent from the project root. The web command opens a web portal where you can chat with the agent.
What's happening:
- adk run runs the agent in CLI mode
- adk web . opens a web UI for interactive testing
```bash
# Run in CLI mode
adk run my_agent

# Or run in web UI mode
adk web
```

## Complete Code

```python
import os
import warnings

from composio import Composio
from composio_google import GoogleProvider
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from google.adk.agents.llm_agent import Agent
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_session_manager import StreamableHTTPConnectionParams
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_toolset import McpToolset

load_dotenv()
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", message=".*BaseAuthenticatedTool.*")

GOOGLE_API_KEY = os.getenv("GOOGLE_API_KEY")
COMPOSIO_API_KEY = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
COMPOSIO_USER_ID = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_USER_ID")

if not GOOGLE_API_KEY:
    raise ValueError("GOOGLE_API_KEY is not set in the environment.")
if not COMPOSIO_API_KEY:
    raise ValueError("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set in the environment.")
if not COMPOSIO_USER_ID:
    raise ValueError("COMPOSIO_USER_ID is not set in the environment.")

composio_client = Composio(api_key=COMPOSIO_API_KEY, provider=GoogleProvider())

composio_session = composio_client.create(
    user_id=COMPOSIO_USER_ID,
    toolkits=["identitycheck"],
)

COMPOSIO_MCP_URL = composio_session.mcp.url


composio_toolset = McpToolset(
    connection_params=StreamableHTTPConnectionParams(
        url=COMPOSIO_MCP_URL,
        headers={"x-api-key": COMPOSIO_API_KEY}
    )
)

root_agent = Agent(
    model="gemini-2.5-flash",
    name="composio_agent",
    description="An agent that uses Composio tools to perform actions.",
    instruction=(
        "You are a helpful assistant connected to Composio. "
        "You have the following tools available: "
        "COMPOSIO_SEARCH_TOOLS, COMPOSIO_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL, "
        "COMPOSIO_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS, COMPOSIO_REMOTE_BASH_TOOL, COMPOSIO_REMOTE_WORKBENCH. "
        "Use these tools to help users with Identitycheck operations."
    ),  
    tools=[composio_toolset],
)

print("\nAgent setup complete. You can now run this agent directly ;)")
```

## Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Identitycheck with the Google ADK through Composio's MCP Tool Router. Your agent can now interact with Identitycheck using natural language commands.
Key takeaways:
- The Tool Router approach dynamically routes requests to the appropriate Identitycheck tools
- Environment variables keep your credentials secure and separate from code
- Clear agent instructions reduce tool calling errors
- The ADK web UI provides an interactive interface for testing and development
You can extend this setup by adding more toolkits to the toolkits array in your session configuration.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Identitycheck MCP?

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Google ADK?

Yes, you can. Google ADK 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 Identitycheck tools.

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

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