## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Nocrm io to the Claude Agent SDK using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Nocrm io agent that can create a new lead for acme corp, add 'hot prospect' tag to lead 12345, assign lead 67890 to john smith through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your Claude Agent SDK agent real control over a Nocrm io account through Composio's Nocrm io 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 Nocrm io
- Configure an AI agent that can use Nocrm io as a tool
- Run a live chat session where you can ask the agent to perform Nocrm io 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 Nocrm io MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Nocrm io MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Nocrm io account. It provides structured and secure access to your lead management workflows, so your agent can create leads, assign owners, update statuses, tag and organize prospects, and manage teams automatically on your behalf.
- Automated lead creation and tracking: Instantly add new leads to your pipeline and ensure they're properly assigned to the right users for follow-up.
- Status and lifecycle management: Change lead statuses—like switching to 'standby' for scheduled follow-ups or marking leads as 'cancelled'—to keep your pipeline up to date.
- Contextual lead updates: Append notes or tags to lead descriptions, helping sales teams capture every interaction and never lose important context.
- Team and assignment coordination: Assign or reassign leads to users and fetch all teams and members, making it easier to distribute workload and manage ownership.
- Lead duplication and cleanup: Effortlessly duplicate high-value leads for multi-step workflows, or permanently delete leads when they’re no longer needed, keeping your CRM organized.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `NOCRM_IO_ADD_A_TAG_TO_A_LEAD` | Add a tag to a lead | Tool to add a tag to a lead. Use when you need to assign one or more tags to a specified lead via noCRM.io. |
| `NOCRM_IO_APPEND_TO_LEADS_DESCRIPTION` | Append to lead's description | Tool to append text to the lead's description. Use when you need to add context incrementally without overwriting. Example: Append 'Left voicemail' to lead 1234. |
| `NOCRM_IO_ASSIGN_LEAD_TO_USER` | Assign Lead to User | Tool to assign a lead to a user. Use when reassigning a lead to the correct owner to trigger assignment notification. |
| `NOCRM_IO_CHANGE_LEAD_STATUS_CANCELLED` | Change Lead Status to Cancelled | Tool to change a lead's status to 'Cancelled'. Use after confirming no further follow-up is needed and the lead should be marked as cancelled. |
| `NOCRM_IO_CHANGE_LEAD_STATUS_STANDBY` | Change lead status standby | Tool to change a lead's status to 'StandBy'. Use when scheduling follow-up after determining the next contact should occur in a set number of days. |
| `NOCRM_IO_CREATE_LEAD` | Create Lead | Tool to create a new lead. Use when adding a fresh prospect to your pipeline via noCRM.io. Example: Create a lead titled 'ACME Corp' assigned to a user. |
| `NOCRM_IO_DELETE_LEAD` | Delete Lead | Tool to delete a lead. Use when you need to permanently remove a specific lead after verifying it is no longer needed. |
| `NOCRM_IO_DUPLICATE_LEAD` | Duplicate Lead | Tool to duplicate a lead. Use when cloning an existing lead into a new step without overwriting original. |
| `NOCRM_IO_LIST_ALL_TEAMS` | List All Teams | Tool to retrieve all teams. Use when you need to fetch every team and its members from noCRM.io. |

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

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

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

    url = mcp_server.mcp.url

## Conclusion

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

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

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

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