How to integrate Mx toolbox MCP with OpenClaw

OpenClaw is the fastest growing agent harness out there, which can work 24/7 to automate almost any kind of tasks. However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Mx toolbox with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Mx toolbox via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

Why use Composio?

Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:

• Programmatic tool calling allows LLMs to write its code in a remote workbench to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
• Handling Large tool responses out of LLM context to minimize context rot.
• Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 850+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

How to install Mx toolbox with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

• Go to dashboard.composio.dev/composio/~/connect/clients/openclaw
• Copy the setup prompt

• Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
• Authenticate Mx toolbox from the dashboard
• Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions.

Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin

1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin

2. Copy the API Key from dashboard.composio.dev

3. Setup OpenClaw Config

openclaw config set plugins.entries.composio.config.consumerKey "ck_your_key_here"

4. Restart OpenClaw

openclaw gateway restart

5. Go to your chat interface and start asking questions.

6. When prompted, authenticate the app and you're all set.

How It Works

The plugin connects to Composio's MCP server at https://connect.composio.dev/mcp and registers all available tools directly into the OpenClaw agent. Tools are called by name — no extra search or execute steps needed.

If a tool returns an auth error, the agent will prompt you to connect that toolkit at dashboard.composio.dev.

Configuration

{
  "plugins": {
    "entries": {
      "composio": {
        "enabled": true,
        "config": {
          "consumerKey": "ck_your_key_here"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

The Mx toolbox MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Mx toolbox account. It provides structured and secure access to network diagnostic and email health tools, so your agent can perform actions like DNS lookups, blacklist checks, email authentication analysis, and connectivity testing on your behalf.

• Automated DNS and MX record lookups: Instantly retrieve DNS, MX, DKIM, DMARC, and MTA-STS records for any domain to verify configuration and troubleshoot email delivery issues.
• Blacklist monitoring and alerting: Check if your domain or IP is listed on common blacklists, helping you stay ahead of email deliverability problems and security risks.
• Email authentication validation: Validate BIMI, DKIM, and DMARC records to ensure your domain's outgoing emails are properly authenticated and protected against spoofing.
• Network and SMTP diagnostics: Run ping, HTTP, and SMTP lookups to diagnose connectivity issues, measure latency, or assess mail server responsiveness—no manual testing required.
• Brand and security checks: Use BIMI and MTA-STS lookups to confirm your brand indicators and mail transport security policies are correctly published and compliant.

Conclusion
