## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Pdf co to LlamaIndex using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Pdf co agent that can extract invoice data from uploaded pdf file, convert excel spreadsheet at url to json, generate a qr code for a payment link through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your LlamaIndex agent real control over a Pdf co account through Composio's Pdf co MCP server.
Before we dive in, let's take a quick look at the key ideas and tools involved.

## TL;DR

Here's what you'll learn:
- Set your OpenAI and Composio API keys
- Install LlamaIndex and Composio packages
- Create a Composio Tool Router session for Pdf co
- Connect LlamaIndex to the Pdf co MCP server
- Build a Pdf co-powered agent using LlamaIndex
- Interact with Pdf co through natural language

## What is LlamaIndex?

LlamaIndex is a data framework for building LLM applications. It provides tools for connecting LLMs to external data sources and services through agents and tools.
Key features include:
- ReAct Agent: Reasoning and acting pattern for tool-using agents
- MCP Tools: Native support for Model Context Protocol
- Context Management: Maintain conversation context across interactions
- Async Support: Built for async/await patterns

## What is the Pdf co MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Pdf co MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Pdf co account. It provides structured and secure access to your PDF.co capabilities, so your agent can extract data, generate documents, convert files, process barcodes, and manage asynchronous jobs on your behalf.
- Automated PDF data extraction and parsing: Let your agent extract structured data from PDFs using templates or parse documents for key information—perfect for receipts, invoices, and more.
- PDF creation, splitting, and merging: Generate new PDF files, combine multiple PDFs, or split documents into separate files without manual intervention.
- File format conversion: Seamlessly convert Excel files to CSV, HTML, JSON, text, or XML, enabling efficient data analysis and workflow automation.
- Barcode generation and processing: Instantly create various barcode formats (QR codes, Code128, PDF417, etc.) or encode data into barcodes for labeling and tracking.
- Job management and file uploads: Upload documents to PDF.co, track the status of asynchronous jobs, and retrieve results—all through your agent, hands-free.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Pdf co MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Pdf co. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Pdf co operations on your behalf through a secure, permission-based interface.
With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster.

## Step-by-step Guide

### 1. Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:
- Python 3.8/Node 16 or higher installed
- A Composio account with the API key
- An OpenAI API key
- A Pdf co account and project
- Basic familiarity with async Python/Typescript

### 1. Getting API Keys for OpenAI, Composio, and Pdf co

No description provided.

### 2. Installing dependencies

No description provided.
```python
pip install composio-llamaindex llama-index llama-index-llms-openai llama-index-tools-mcp python-dotenv
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/llamaindex @llamaindex/openai @llamaindex/tools @llamaindex/workflow dotenv
```

### 3. Set environment variables

Create a .env file in your project root:
These credentials will be used to:
- Authenticate with OpenAI's GPT-5 model
- Connect to Composio's Tool Router
- Identify your Composio user session for Pdf co access
```bash
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-composio-api-key
COMPOSIO_USER_ID=your-user-id
```

### 4. Import modules

No description provided.
```python
import asyncio
import os
import dotenv

from composio import Composio
from composio_llamaindex import LlamaIndexProvider
from llama_index.core.agent.workflow import ReActAgent
from llama_index.core.workflow import Context
from llama_index.llms.openai import OpenAI
from llama_index.tools.mcp import BasicMCPClient, McpToolSpec

dotenv.load_dotenv()
```

```typescript
import "dotenv/config";
import readline from "node:readline/promises";
import { stdin as input, stdout as output } from "node:process";

import { Composio } from "@composio/core";

import { mcp } from "@llamaindex/tools";
import { agent as createAgent } from "@llamaindex/workflow";
import { openai } from "@llamaindex/openai";

dotenv.config();
```

### 5. Load environment variables and initialize Composio

No description provided.
```python
OPENAI_API_KEY = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")
COMPOSIO_API_KEY = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
COMPOSIO_USER_ID = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_USER_ID")

if not OPENAI_API_KEY:
    raise ValueError("OPENAI_API_KEY is not set in the environment")
if not COMPOSIO_API_KEY:
    raise ValueError("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set in the environment")
if not COMPOSIO_USER_ID:
    raise ValueError("COMPOSIO_USER_ID is not set in the environment")
```

```typescript
const OPENAI_API_KEY = process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY;
const COMPOSIO_API_KEY = process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY;
const COMPOSIO_USER_ID = process.env.COMPOSIO_USER_ID;

if (!OPENAI_API_KEY) throw new Error("OPENAI_API_KEY is not set");
if (!COMPOSIO_API_KEY) throw new Error("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set");
if (!COMPOSIO_USER_ID) throw new Error("COMPOSIO_USER_ID is not set");
```

### 6. Create a Tool Router session and build the agent function

What's happening here:
- We create a Composio client using your API key and configure it with the LlamaIndex provider
- We then create a tool router MCP session for your user, specifying the toolkits we want to use (in this case, pdf co)
- The session returns an MCP HTTP endpoint URL that acts as a gateway to all your configured tools
- LlamaIndex will connect to this endpoint to dynamically discover and use the available Pdf co tools.
- The MCP tools are mapped to LlamaIndex-compatible tools and plug them into the Agent.
```python
async def build_agent() -> ReActAgent:
    composio_client = Composio(
        api_key=COMPOSIO_API_KEY,
        provider=LlamaIndexProvider(),
    )

    session = composio_client.create(
        user_id=COMPOSIO_USER_ID,
        toolkits=["pdf_co"],
    )

    mcp_url = session.mcp.url
    print(f"Composio MCP URL: {mcp_url}")

    mcp_client = BasicMCPClient(mcp_url, headers={"x-api-key": COMPOSIO_API_KEY})
    mcp_tool_spec = McpToolSpec(client=mcp_client)
    tools = await mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async()

    llm = OpenAI(model="gpt-5")

    description = "An agent that uses Composio Tool Router MCP tools to perform Pdf co actions."
    system_prompt = """
    You are a helpful assistant connected to Composio Tool Router.
    Use the available tools to answer user queries and perform Pdf co actions.
    """
    return ReActAgent(tools=tools, llm=llm, description=description, system_prompt=system_prompt, verbose=True)
```

```typescript
async function buildAgent() {

  console.log(`Initializing Composio client...${COMPOSIO_USER_ID!}...`);
  console.log(`COMPOSIO_USER_ID: ${COMPOSIO_USER_ID!}...`);

  const composio = new Composio({
    apiKey: COMPOSIO_API_KEY,
    provider: new LlamaindexProvider(),
  });

  const session = await composio.create(
    COMPOSIO_USER_ID!,
    {
      toolkits: ["pdf_co"],
    },
  );

  const mcpUrl = session.mcp.url;
  console.log(`Composio Tool Router MCP URL: ${mcpUrl}`);

  const server = mcp({
    url: mcpUrl,
    clientName: "composio_tool_router_with_llamaindex",
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        "x-api-key": COMPOSIO_API_KEY!,
      },
    },
    // verbose: true,
  });

  const tools = await server.tools();

  const llm = openai({ apiKey: OPENAI_API_KEY, model: "gpt-5" });

  const agent = createAgent({
    name: "composio_tool_router_with_llamaindex",
        description : "An agent that uses Composio Tool Router MCP tools to perform actions.",
    systemPrompt:
      "You are a helpful assistant connected to Composio Tool Router."+
"Use the available tools to answer user queries and perform Pdf co actions." ,
    llm,
    tools,
  });

  return agent;
}
```

### 7. Create an interactive chat loop

No description provided.
```python
async def chat_loop(agent: ReActAgent) -> None:
    ctx = Context(agent)
    print("Type 'quit', 'exit', or Ctrl+C to stop.")

    while True:
        try:
            user_input = input("\nYou: ").strip()
        except (KeyboardInterrupt, EOFError):
            print("\nBye!")
            break

        if not user_input or user_input.lower() in {"quit", "exit"}:
            print("Bye!")
            break

        try:
            print("Agent: ", end="", flush=True)
            handler = agent.run(user_input, ctx=ctx)

            async for event in handler.stream_events():
                # Stream token-by-token from LLM responses
                if hasattr(event, "delta") and event.delta:
                    print(event.delta, end="", flush=True)
                # Show tool calls as they happen
                elif hasattr(event, "tool_name"):
                    print(f"\n[Using tool: {event.tool_name}]", flush=True)

            # Get final response
            response = await handler
            print()  # Newline after streaming
        except KeyboardInterrupt:
            print("\n[Interrupted]")
            continue
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"\nError: {e}")
```

```typescript
async function chatLoop(agent: ReturnType<typeof createAgent>) {
  const rl = readline.createInterface({ input, output });

  console.log("Type 'quit' or 'exit' to stop.");

  while (true) {
    let userInput: string;

    try {
      userInput = (await rl.question("\nYou: ")).trim();
    } catch {
      console.log("\nAgent: Bye!");
      break;
    }

    if (!userInput) {
      continue;
    }

    const lower = userInput.toLowerCase();
    if (lower === "quit" || lower === "exit") {
      console.log("Agent: Bye!");
      break;
    }

    try {
      process.stdout.write("Agent: ");

      const stream = agent.runStream(userInput);
      let finalResult: any = null;

      for await (const event of stream) {
        // The event.data contains the streamed content
        const data: any = event.data;

        // Check for streaming delta content
        if (data?.delta) {
          process.stdout.write(data.delta);
        }

        // Store final result for fallback
        if (data?.result || data?.message) {
          finalResult = data;
        }
      }

      // If no streaming happened, show the final result
      if (finalResult) {
        const answer =
          finalResult.result ??
          finalResult.message?.content ??
          finalResult.message ??
          "";
        if (answer && typeof answer === "string" && !answer.includes("[object")) {
          process.stdout.write(answer);
        }
      }

      console.log(); // New line after streaming completes
    } catch (err: any) {
      console.error("\nAgent error:", err?.message ?? err);
    }
  }

  rl.close();
}
```

### 8. Define the main entry point

What's happening here:
- We're orchestrating the entire application flow
- The agent gets built with proper error handling
- Then we kick off the interactive chat loop so you can start talking to Pdf co
```python
async def main() -> None:
    agent = await build_agent()
    await chat_loop(agent)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Handle Ctrl+C gracefully
    signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, lambda s, f: (print("\nBye!"), exit(0)))
    try:
        asyncio.run(main())
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        print("\nBye!")
```

```typescript
async function main() {
  try {
    const agent = await buildAgent();
    await chatLoop(agent);
  } catch (err) {
    console.error("Failed to start agent:", err);
    process.exit(1);
  }
}

main();
```

### 9. Run the agent

When prompted, authenticate and authorise your agent with Pdf co, then start asking questions.
```bash
python llamaindex_agent.py
```

```typescript
npx ts-node llamaindex-agent.ts
```

## Conclusion

You've successfully connected Pdf co to LlamaIndex through Composio's Tool Router MCP layer.
Key takeaways:
- Tool Router dynamically exposes Pdf co tools through an MCP endpoint
- LlamaIndex's ReActAgent handles reasoning and orchestration; Composio handles integrations
- The agent becomes more capable without increasing prompt size
- Async Python provides clean, efficient execution of agent workflows
You can easily extend this to other toolkits like Gmail, Notion, Stripe, GitHub, and more by adding them to the toolkits parameter.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Pdf co MCP?

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with LlamaIndex?

Yes, you can. LlamaIndex 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 Pdf co tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Pdf co while using Tool Router?

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