SETUP GUIDE

Connect Kintone MCP Tool with your Agent

1

Install Composio

typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/mcp @ai-sdk/openai
Install the Composio SDK and your agent framework
2

Create a session with MCP enabled

typescript
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";

const composio = new Composio();
const { mcp } = await composio.create("your-user-id", {
  toolkits: ["kintone"],
  mcp: true,
});
Create a session scoped to Kintone and read its MCP URL and headers
3

Connect your agent to the MCP server

typescript
import { createMCPClient } from "@ai-sdk/mcp";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from "ai";

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: { type: "http", url: mcp.url, headers: mcp.headers },
});

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai("gpt-5.6-sol"),
  tools: await client.tools(),
  prompt: "List all Kintone users and show their department memberships",
  stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
});

console.log(text);
await client.close();
Pass the session's MCP URL and headers to your agent and run a Kintone request
SETUP GUIDE

Connect Kintone API Tool with your Agent

1

Install Composio

typescript
npm install @composio/core @composio/openai openai
Install the Composio SDK, the OpenAI provider, and the OpenAI SDK
2

Create a Composio session

typescript
import OpenAI from "openai";
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from "@composio/openai";

const composio = new Composio({ provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider() });
const client = new OpenAI();

const session = await composio.create("your-user-id", { toolkits: ["kintone"] });
const tools = await session.tools();
Initialize Composio with the OpenAI Responses provider and create a session scoped to Kintone
3

Run Kintone tools with your agent

typescript
let response = await client.responses.create({
  model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
  tools,
  input: [{ role: "user", content: "List all Kintone users and show their department memberships" }],
});

while (response.output.some((o) => o.type === "function_call")) {
  const outputs = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(session, response.output);
  response = await client.responses.create({
    model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
    tools,
    previous_response_id: response.id,
    input: outputs,
  });
}

console.log(response.output_text);
Send a request, execute the Kintone tool calls through the session, and print the final answer

Why Use Composio?

AI Native Kintone Integration

  • Supports both Kintone MCP and direct API based integrations
  • Structured, LLM-friendly schemas for reliable user, department, and group operations
  • Rich coverage for tenant admin tasks like memberships, service assignments, and login codes

Managed Auth

  • Connect Kintone API key credentials without hard-coding secrets in your agent
  • Create API key auth configs with auth_configs.create() and link tenant accounts with connected_accounts.link()
  • Per user and per environment credentials, so staging and production stay cleanly separated

Agent Optimized Design

  • Tools are tuned so agents can understand Kintone admin actions without custom glue code
  • Clear execution logs show which user, department, group, or service assignment changed
  • Use mcp.create() when you want a dedicated MCP server path for Kintone-powered agents

Enterprise Grade Security

  • Fine-grained RBAC so you control which agents and users can access Kintone admin tools
  • Scoped, least privilege access to Kintone tenant resources
  • Full audit trail of agent actions to support review, onboarding checks, and compliance
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Yes, Kintone requires you to configure your own API key. Once set up, Composio handles secure credential storage and API request handling for you.

Yes! Composio's Tool Router enables agents to use multiple toolkits. Learn more.

Yes. Composio is SOC 2 Type II compliant and is built to keep your Kintone connection and credentials secure. OAuth tokens and API keys are encrypted, and sensitive customer data is protected at rest and in transit.

Composio also undergoes independent security testing and continuously monitors its systems for security threats. You can review the latest reports and policies in the Composio Trust Center.

Composio maintains and updates all toolkit integrations automatically, so your agents always work with the latest API versions.

Create the key in your Kintone account settings, then paste it once on Composio's connection page. Composio stores it encrypted and uses it only for the Kintone actions your agent runs. Nobody else in your workspace can read it, and you can revoke it inside Kintone at any time.

When you connect a Kintone account through Composio, every action runs under that account, so anything the agent creates, sends, or changes shows up in Kintone as done by you. Keep an approval step in your prompt for actions with side effects, such as sending or deleting, and have the agent draft first.

Whatever the credentials you connect allow inside Kintone. If Kintone lets you scope a key to specific permissions, create a scoped one so the agent can only do what you intend. You can revoke the key inside Kintone at any time.

Yes. Composio supports multiple connected accounts for the same app, and that works in Claude, ChatGPT, or any other assistant you connect through Composio. Give each Kintone connection a name such as work or personal, and the assistant uses the one you mention in the request. Each account keeps its own credentials and nothing is merged.

The connection stops working the moment Kintone rejects the old key. Create a new key in Kintone and reconnect the account from the Composio dashboard or by asking your agent to reconnect Kintone. Nothing else changes.

Composio's free Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month with no credit card, which covers most personal Kintone use. Paid plans add higher limits and team features. Your Kintone plan and its API limits still apply as usual.

Built-in connectors usually give one AI access to a limited set of apps. Many people use Composio because it lets their AI connect to more apps than it normally supports, or connect to multiple accounts for the same app (e.g. connect Claude to multiple Kintone accounts).

With Composio, you connect Kintone once and then use it across different AI assistants without setting it up separately in each one. Connect your apps to Composio once, then connect Composio to whichever AI you use, whether that's Claude, ChatGPT, Hermes, or your own custom assistant.
