## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Membervault to the Claude Agent SDK using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Membervault agent that can list all available courses in your account, enroll user john@example.com in marketing 101, delete user with email jane@sample.com through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your Claude Agent SDK agent real control over a Membervault account through Composio's Membervault 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 Membervault
- Configure an AI agent that can use Membervault as a tool
- Run a live chat session where you can ask the agent to perform Membervault 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 Membervault MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Membervault MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Membervault account. It provides structured and secure access to your digital products, so your agent can perform actions like enrolling users in courses, retrieving available offerings, and managing user accounts on your behalf.
- Automated course enrollment: Effortlessly add users to specific courses or digital products without manual intervention, streamlining onboarding.
- Instant course catalog retrieval: Let your agent fetch and list all available courses or products in your Membervault account to help you review or present offerings.
- Complete user deletion: Instruct your agent to permanently remove a user—including all associated data, progress, and quiz answers—from your Membervault account.
- Bulk membership management: Use the agent to handle repetitive user enrollment or cleanup tasks efficiently, reducing administrative overhead.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `MEMBERVAULT_ADD_USER` | Add User to Course | Tool to add a user to a specified product. Use when enrolling a user into a course without duplication. |
| `MEMBERVAULT_DELETE_USER` | Delete User | Tool to completely delete a user from the account, including all data, progress, and quiz answers (irreversible). Use when you need to permanently remove a user. Example: "Delete user with email user@example.com" |
| `MEMBERVAULT_GET_COURSES` | Get Courses | Tool to retrieve all courses (products) in the MemberVault account. Use when you need to list available courses after setting up authentication. |
| `MEMBERVAULT_REMOVE_USER` | Remove User from Course | Tool to remove a user's access to a product (course). This simply removes access to the product without deleting the user from the account. Use when revoking course access. |

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

The Membervault MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Membervault. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Membervault 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 Membervault 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
```

### 4. Import dependencies

No description provided.
```python
import asyncio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions
import os
from composio import Composio
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()
```

```typescript
import 'dotenv/config';
import readline from 'node:readline';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { query, type Options } from "@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk";

dotenv.config();
```

### 5. Create a Composio instance and Tool Router session

No description provided.
```python
async def chat_with_remote_mcp():
    api_key = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
    if not api_key:
        raise RuntimeError("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set")

    composio = Composio(api_key=api_key)

    # Create Tool Router session for Membervault
    mcp_server = composio.create(
        user_id=os.getenv("USER_ID"),
        toolkits=["membervault"]
    )

    url = mcp_server.mcp.url

    if not url:
        raise ValueError("Session URL not found")
```

```typescript
async function chat() {
  const { COMPOSIO_API_KEY, USER_ID } = process.env;
  if (!COMPOSIO_API_KEY || !USER_ID) {
    throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID required in .env');
  }

  const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: COMPOSIO_API_KEY });

  // Create Tool Router session for Membervault

## Conclusion

You've successfully built a Claude Agent SDK agent that can interact with Membervault 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 Membervault MCP?

With a standalone Membervault MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Membervault tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Membervault 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 Membervault tools.

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

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