Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Nutshell with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Nutshell via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

What is the Nutshell MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The Nutshell MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Nutshell account. It provides structured and secure access to your accounts, contacts, leads, and sales records, so your agent can create accounts, add contacts, manage leads, retrieve customer details, and update sales information on your behalf.
- Account creation and lookup: Have your agent create company accounts and retrieve existing account details when you need customer context.
- Contact management: Let the agent add new contacts, review your contact list, retrieve specific contact details, and update existing records.
- Lead creation: Direct your agent to create new leads in Nutshell as prospects enter your sales pipeline.
- Lead review and updates: Instruct your agent to list leads, retrieve specific lead details, and update records as sales conversations progress.
- Sales record maintenance: Have your agent keep account, contact, and lead information current as customer relationships develop.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
With a standalone Nutshell MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Nutshell tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Nutshell and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.
Yes, you can. OpenClaw 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 Nutshell tools.
Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Nutshell 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.
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 Nutshell data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
