## Description

Securely connect your AI agents and chatbots (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc) with Olostep MCP or direct API to crawl websites, extract structured data, run targeted searches, and monitor pages for changes through natural language.

## Summary

Olostep is an API platform for web scraping, crawling, search, and structured data extraction.
Use it to turn messy web pages into searchable, structured answers and automated monitors.

## Categories

- data & analytics

## Toolkit Details

- Tools: 9

## Images

- Logo: https://logos.composio.dev/api/olostep

## Authentication

- **Api Key**
  - Type: `api_key`
  - Description: Api Key authentication for Olostep.
  - Setup:
    - Configure Api Key credentials for Olostep.
    - Use the credentials when creating an auth config in Composio.

## Suggested Prompts

- Crawl competitor website for pricing changes
- Extract product specs from example.com pages
- Monitor price drops on target product pages

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `OLOSTEP_ANSWER_QUESTION` | Answer Question | Synchronously research a bounded task by searching and browsing the web, then return the completed answer and sources when available. This usage-metered operation usually takes 3-30 seconds and has no documented fixed dashboard-key credit price; check the account balance before expensive use. |
| `OLOSTEP_GET_CREDIT_BALANCE` | Get Credit Balance | Return the connected team's remaining Olostep credits, credit lots, active subscription, and whether usage is enabled without consuming web-processing credits. |
| `OLOSTEP_GET_OPERATION_RESULT` | Get Operation Result | Retrieve a stored scrape, search, map, answer, or crawl by its operation ID without repeating or rebilling the original work. Crawl results may still report in_progress. |
| `OLOSTEP_LIST_CRAWL_PAGES` | List Crawl Pages | Return one page of URLs and retrieve IDs processed by an asynchronous crawl, with a continuation cursor for additional pages. Use Retrieve Content for page bodies. |
| `OLOSTEP_MAP_WEBSITE` | Map Website | Synchronously discover and optionally rank URLs on a website, returning one response page and a continuation cursor. This usage-metered operation consumes Olostep credits. |
| `OLOSTEP_RETRIEVE_CONTENT` | Retrieve Content | Retrieve stored page content by retrieve ID in selected live-supported formats, including hosted URLs for oversized output. |
| `OLOSTEP_SCRAPE_PAGE` | Scrape Page | Synchronously scrape one web page and return requested content, links, metadata, a retrieve ID, and billing usage. This usage-metered operation can consume credits even when cached content is returned. Fresh scrapes, browser actions, extraction, and screenshots may cost more. |
| `OLOSTEP_SEARCH_WEB` | Search Web | Synchronously search the web for relevant deduplicated links. This usage-metered operation costs 5 base credits per search; supplying scrape_formats also charges for scraping each returned page. The response reports credits_consumed when available. |
| `OLOSTEP_START_CRAWL` | Start Crawl | Start an asynchronous, usage-metered website crawl and immediately return its crawl ID and initial status. This action does not poll: use Get Operation Result to monitor status and List Crawl Pages to consume output. Work may continue for 1-10 minutes and can consume credits for up to max_pages pages. |

## Installation and MCP Setup

### Path 1: SDK Installation

#### Path 1, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK
```python
pip install composio_openai
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai
```

#### Path 1, Step 2: Initialize Composio and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize Composio client, then create a Tool Router session
```python
from openai import OpenAI
from composio import Composio
from composio_openai import OpenAIResponsesProvider

composio = Composio(provider=OpenAIResponsesProvider())
openai = OpenAI()
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
```

```typescript
import OpenAI from 'openai';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from '@composio/openai';

const composio = new Composio({
  provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider(),
});
const openai = new OpenAI({});
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');
```

#### Path 1, Step 3: Execute Olostep Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent

Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Olostep actions with your Agent
```python
tools = session.tools
response = openai.responses.create(
  model='gpt-4.1',
  tools=tools,
  input=[{
    'role': 'user',
    'content': 'YOUR_SPECIFIC_PROMPT_HERE'
  }]
)
result = composio.provider.handle_tool_calls(
  response=response,
  user_id='your-user-id'
)
print(result)
```

```typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-4.1',
  tools: tools,
  input: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'YOUR_SPECIFIC_PROMPT_HERE'
  }],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(
  'your-user-id',
  response.output
);
console.log(result);
```

### Path 2: MCP Server Setup

#### Path 2, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK for Python or TypeScript
```python
pip install composio claude-agent-sdk
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcp
```

#### Path 2, Step 2: Initialize Client and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize the Composio client, then create a Tool Router session for Olostep
```python
from composio import Composio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions

composio = Composio(api_key='your-composio-api-key')
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';

const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: 'your-api-key' });
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');
console.log(`Tool Router session created: ${session.mcp.url}`);
```

#### Path 2, Step 3: Connect to AI Agent

Use the MCP server with your AI agent (Anthropic Claude or Mastra)
```python
import asyncio

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    permission_mode='bypassPermissions',
    mcp_servers={
        'tool_router': {
            'type': 'http',
            'url': url,
            'headers': {
                'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key'
            }
        }
    },
    system_prompt='You are a helpful assistant with access to Olostep tools.',
    max_turns=10
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query('YOUR_SPECIFIC_PROMPT_HERE')
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if hasattr(message, 'content'):
                for block in message.content:
                    if hasattr(block, 'text'):
                        print(block.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

```typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText } from 'ai';

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: 'http',
    url: session.mcp.url,
    headers: {
      'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key',
    },
  },
});

const tools = await client.tools();
const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai('gpt-4o'),
  tools,
  messages: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'YOUR_SPECIFIC_PROMPT_HERE'
  }],
  maxSteps: 5,
});

console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);
