## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Langbase to the Claude Agent SDK using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Langbase agent that can chunk a long document for semantic search, list all conversation threads for this agent, create a new memory for session data through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your Claude Agent SDK agent real control over a Langbase account through Composio's Langbase 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 and set up your Claude/Anthropic and Composio API keys
- Install the necessary dependencies
- Initialize Composio and create a Tool Router session for Langbase
- Configure an AI agent that can use Langbase as a tool
- Run a live chat session where you can ask the agent to perform Langbase operations

## What is Claude Agent SDK?

The Claude Agent SDK is Anthropic's official framework for building AI agents powered by Claude. It provides a streamlined interface for creating agents with MCP tool support and conversation management.
Key features include:
- Native MCP Support: Built-in support for Model Context Protocol servers
- Permission Modes: Control tool execution permissions
- Streaming Responses: Real-time response streaming for interactive applications
- Context Manager: Clean async context management for sessions

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

The Langbase MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Langbase account. It provides structured and secure access to your Langbase projects, letting your agent split content, manage memories, orchestrate threads, and build complex AI data flows on your behalf.
- Content chunking and processing: Automatically split large documents or text into manageable chunks for downstream processing and efficient AI handling.
- Memory management: Create, list, or delete memory objects so your agent can organize and retrieve contextual information as needed.
- Conversation thread orchestration: Start new conversation threads, fetch thread details, or list messages—making it easy for your agent to manage dialogue history and context.
- Pipe creation and listing: Let your agent create new processing pipes or retrieve all existing pipes, enabling seamless orchestration of data and AI workflows.
- Document and data retrieval: List all documents stored in a memory, giving your agent access to relevant information and knowledge for any task.

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

The Langbase MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Langbase. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Langbase 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:
- Composio API Key and Claude/Anthropic API Key
- Primary know-how of Claude Agents SDK
- A Langbase account
- Some knowledge of Python

### 1. Getting API Keys for Claude/Anthropic and Composio

Claude/Anthropic API Key
- Go to the [Anthropic Console](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/organization/api-keys) and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models.
- Keep the API key safe.
Composio API Key
- Log in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs).
- Navigate to your API settings and generate a new API key.
- Store this key securely as you'll need it for authentication.

### 2. Install dependencies

No description provided.
```python
pip install composio-anthropic claude-agent-sdk python-dotenv
```

```typescript
npm install @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk @composio/core dotenv
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file in your project root.
What's happening:
- COMPOSIO_API_KEY authenticates with Composio
- USER_ID identifies the user for session management
- ANTHROPIC_API_KEY authenticates with Anthropic/Claude
```bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here
USER_ID=your_user_id_here
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_anthropic_api_key_here
```

## Conclusion

You've successfully built a Claude Agent SDK agent that can interact with Langbase through Composio's Tool Router.
Key features:
- Native MCP support through Claude's agent framework
- Streaming responses for real-time interaction
- Permission bypass for smooth automated workflows
You can extend this by adding more toolkits, implementing custom business logic, or building a web interface around the agent.

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Claude Agent SDK?

Yes, you can. Claude Agent SDK 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 Langbase tools.

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

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