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 Netsuite MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Netsuite MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Netsuite account. It provides structured and secure access to your business data, so your agent can perform actions like creating invoices, managing inventory, tracking customer records, and automating financial workflows on your behalf.

Automated invoice creation and management: Let your agent generate, send, and update invoices for customers, streamlining your accounts receivable process.
Real-time inventory control: Ask your agent to check stock levels, update inventory records, and manage supply chain transactions seamlessly.
Customer and vendor record management: Have the agent create, update, or retrieve customer and vendor profiles, keeping your CRM data fresh and accurate.
Financial reporting and analytics: Direct your agent to pull balance sheets, profit & loss statements, or transaction histories for up-to-date business insights.
Order processing automation: Enable your agent to create sales orders, manage purchase orders, and track fulfillment status across your operations.

What is the Composio tool router, and how does it fit here?

What is Composio SDK?

Composio's Composio SDK helps agents find the right tools for a task at runtime. You can plug in multiple toolkits (like Gmail, HubSpot, and GitHub), and the agent will identify the relevant app and action to complete multi-step workflows. This can reduce token usage and improve the reliability of tool calls. Read more here: Getting started with Composio SDK

The tool router generates a secure MCP URL that your agents can access to perform actions.

How the Composio SDK works

The Composio SDK follows a three-phase workflow:

Discovery: Searches for tools matching your task and returns relevant toolkits with their details.
Authentication: Checks for active connections. If missing, creates an auth config and returns a connection URL via Auth Link.
Execution: Executes the action using the authenticated connection.

Step-by-step Guide

Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:

Composio API Key and Claude/Anthropic API Key
Primary know-how of Claude Agents SDK
A Netsuite account
Some knowledge of Python

Getting API Keys for Claude/Anthropic and Composio

Claude/Anthropic API Key

Go to the Anthropic Console 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.
Navigate to your API settings and generate a new API key.
Store this key securely as you'll need it for authentication.

Install dependencies

pip install composio-anthropic claude-agent-sdk python-dotenv

Install the Composio SDK and the Claude Agents SDK.

What's happening:

composio-anthropic provides Composio integration for Anthropic
claude-agent-sdk is the core agent framework
python-dotenv loads environment variables

Set up environment variables

bash

COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here
USER_ID=your_user_id_here
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_anthropic_api_key_here

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

Import dependencies

import asyncio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions
import os
from composio import Composio
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv()

What's happening:

We're importing all necessary libraries including the Claude Agent SDK and Composio
The load_dotenv() function loads environment variables from your .env file
This setup prepares the foundation for connecting Claude with Netsuite functionality

Create a Composio instance and Tool Router session

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 Netsuite
    mcp_server = composio.create(
        user_id=os.getenv("USER_ID"),
        toolkits=["netsuite"]
    )

    url = mcp_server.mcp.url

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

What's happening:

The function checks for the required COMPOSIO_API_KEY environment variable
We're creating a Composio instance using our API key
The create method creates a Tool Router session for Netsuite
The returned url is the MCP server URL that your agent will use

Configure Claude Agent with MCP

# Configure remote MCP server for Claude
options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    permission_mode="bypassPermissions",
    mcp_servers={
        "composio": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": url,
            "headers": {
                "x-api-key": os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
            }
        }
    },
    system_prompt="You are a helpful assistant with access to Netsuite tools via Composio.",
    max_turns=10
)

What's happening:

We're configuring the Claude Agent options with the MCP server URL
permission_mode="bypassPermissions" allows the agent to execute operations without asking for permission each time
The system prompt instructs the agent that it has access to Netsuite
max_turns=10 limits the conversation length to prevent excessive API usage

Create client and start chat loop

# Create client with context manager
async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
    print("\nChat started. Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end.\n")

    # Main chat loop
    while True:
        user_input = input("You: ").strip()
        if user_input.lower() in {"exit", "quit"}:
            print("Goodbye!")
            break

        # Send query
        await client.query(user_input)

        # Receive and print response
        print("Claude: ", end="", flush=True)
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if hasattr(message, "content"):
                for block in message.content:
                    if hasattr(block, "text"):
                        print(block.text, end="", flush=True)
        print()

What's happening:

The Claude SDK client is created using the async context manager pattern
The agent processes each query and streams the response back in real-time
The chat loop continues until the user types 'exit' or 'quit'

Run the application

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(chat_with_remote_mcp())

What's happening:

This entry point runs the async chat_with_remote_mcp() function using asyncio.run()
The application will start, create the MCP connection, and begin the interactive chat session

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Netsuite MCP?

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

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

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