Introduction

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 Onedesk with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Onedesk 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 Onedesk with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

Copy the setup prompt from the OpenClaw dashboard
  • Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
  • Authenticate Onedesk from the dashboard
  • Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions.

Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin

1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin

bash
openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-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.

What is the Onedesk MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Onedesk MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Onedesk account. It provides structured and secure access to your help desk and project management workspace, so your agent can perform actions like managing tickets, handling tasks, logging work, and cleaning up projects on your behalf.

  • Automated worklog entry creation: Let your agent log time spent on tickets, tasks, or projects, so you can track team effort without manual entry.
  • Ticket and task cleanup: Direct your agent to delete tickets or tasks that are no longer needed, keeping your workspace organized and up to date.
  • Project and requirement management: Have the agent remove outdated projects or requirements, ensuring your portfolio stays relevant and clutter-free.
  • Attachment and comment removal: Ask your agent to delete attachments or comments from tasks, tickets, or projects, maintaining a clean and focused workflow.
  • Customer and timesheet handling: Enable your agent to securely delete customers or timesheets, helping you maintain accurate records and compliance.

FAQ

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

With a standalone Onedesk MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Onedesk tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Onedesk and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenClaw?

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 Onedesk tools.

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

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