How to integrate Notion 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 Notion with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Notion 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 Notion 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 Notion 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 Notion MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Notion account. It provides structured and secure access to your notes, docs, wikis, and tasks, so your agent can perform actions like creating pages, managing databases, adding content, commenting, and organizing your Notion workspace for you.

• Bulk content creation and formatting: Let your agent efficiently add and format multiple blocks of text, lists, or markdown content to Notion pages in one go.
• Automated page and database management: Have your agent create new pages, duplicate existing ones, or set up entire databases with custom properties—no manual setup required.
• Smart commenting and collaboration: Enable your agent to add comments to pages or discussion threads, making real-time collaboration smoother.
• Workspace organization and cleanup: Ask your agent to archive, delete, or restore pages and blocks, keeping your workspace tidy and up to date.
• Deep block and structure retrieval: Direct your agent to fetch metadata, list child blocks, or dig into nested content for analysis, reporting, or workflow automation.
