```python
from openai import OpenAI
from composio import Composio
from composio_openai import OpenAIResponsesProvider

```

#### Path 1, Step 3: Execute Linkedin Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent

Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Linkedin actions with your Agent

```typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-4.1',
  tools: tools,
  input: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'Post a company update about our latest product launch on LinkedIn'
  }],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(

            'type': 'http',
            'url': url,
            'headers': {
                'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key'

        }
    },
    system_prompt='You are a helpful assistant with access to Linkedin tools.',
    max_turns=10
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query('Create a LinkedIn post announcing our product launch')
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if hasattr(message, 'content'):
                for block in message.content:
                    if hasattr(block, 'text'):
                        print(block.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

```typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from 'ai';

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: 'http',
    url: mcp.url,
    headers: { 'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key' }
  }
});

const tools = await client.tools();

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai('gpt-4o'),
  tools,
  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Create a LinkedIn post announcing our product launch' }],
  stopWhen: stepCountIs( 5 )
});

console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);
