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 Optimoroute with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Optimoroute 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 Optimoroute 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 Optimoroute 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 Optimoroute MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Optimoroute MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Optimoroute account. It provides structured and secure access to your logistics and planning data, so your agent can perform actions like retrieving driver details, viewing planned delivery routes, checking route assignments, and monitoring driver status on your behalf.

  • Live driver roster and status retrieval: Instantly fetch up-to-date information about all drivers, including their current availability and contact details.
  • Planned route overview for any date: Have your agent pull a detailed list of all planned routes for a specific date, including stop information and route parameters.
  • Monitor unassigned orders and route gaps: Easily identify orders that haven’t been assigned to a route, helping you spot scheduling bottlenecks.
  • Centralized route and driver reporting: Aggregate route and driver data to power dashboards or daily logistics summaries, all via your AI agent.

Supported Tools & Triggers

Get DriversTool to retrieve all drivers in the system.
Get Planned RoutesTool to retrieve all planned routes for a given date.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Optimoroute with OpenClaw using Composio plugin. Now interact with Optimoroute directly from your terminal, Web UI, or any messenger app using natural language commands.

Key benefits of this setup:

  • Seamless integration across TUI, Web UIs, and Messenger apps like Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, etc.
  • Natural language commands for Optimoroute operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 850+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • Programmatic tool calling for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

  • Try asking OpenClaw to perform various Optimoroute operations
  • Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits like Calendar, Slack, Notion, etc.
  • Build complex automation scripts that leverage OpenClaw's 24/7 running capabilities

FAQ

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

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

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

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