How Atomic Agent connects to Pdfless

Atomic Agent connects to Composio's Tool Router over Streamable HTTP MCP. It discovers the tools needed for your request, and Composio handles account authentication.

Execution and account-connection tools follow Atomic Agent's configured approval policy. Review any approval prompt before allowing an action on your connected account.

Connect Pdfless to Atomic Agent

  1. Sign up or sign in to the Composio dashboard. Copy your API key.
  2. In Atomic Agent, open the Integrations tab and select Composio. Select API key, press e, paste the key, and press Enter. The tools become available immediately, without a restart.
  3. Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Pdfless. It searches Composio for the right tool.
  4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Pdfless account, then return to Atomic Agent to continue.

Headless setup

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

The Pdfless MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Pdfless account. It provides structured and secure access to your Pdfless document templates and PDF generation workflows, so your agent can perform actions like discovering templates, previewing options, and preparing high-quality documents on your behalf.

  • Template discovery and listing: Instantly fetch and review all available HTML/CSS document templates in your Pdfless account for rapid document generation.
  • Template selection for document creation: Let your agent intelligently choose the best template for your data or use case, streamlining the PDF creation process.
  • Automated workflow integration: Seamlessly integrate Pdfless templates into broader automation flows, letting your agent connect data sources and trigger document creation.
  • Consistent document generation: Ensure every PDF generated by your agent follows your chosen branding and formatting standards by leveraging reusable templates.

Use Pdfless from Atomic Agent

With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with Pdfless in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

Troubleshooting

Why is my API key rejected?

Copy the key directly from the Composio dashboard. Atomic Agent requires ASCII characters because it sends the key in an HTTP header. Remove any extra characters introduced when copying.

Why are Composio tools unavailable after saving a key?

Check that you use Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later and that Composio is enabled in your configuration. A "composio": { "enabled": false } setting disables the integration while keeping the saved key on disk.

Does Composio have a free plan?

The Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month. Composio-managed OAuth apps have a lower included allowance. See Composio pricing for the current limits that apply to your connection.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

Yes, you can. Atomic Agent 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 Pdfless tools.

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