## Introduction

Atomic Agent is an open-source AI agent that runs on your machine and supports local models through llama.cpp. Connect it to 1,500+ apps through Composio, including Refiner.
This guide uses Atomic Agent's built-in Composio integration. You need Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later, your own Composio API key, and a Refiner account. See the [Atomic Agent documentation](https://atomicagent.io/docs/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-docs) for installation instructions.

## TL;DR

### How Atomic Agent connects to Refiner
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 Refiner to Atomic Agent

### Connect Refiner to Atomic Agent
- Sign up or sign in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-api-key). Copy your API key.
- 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.
- Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Refiner. It searches Composio for the right tool.
- On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Refiner account, then return to Atomic Agent to continue.
### Headless setup
Add the following line to ~/.atomic-agent/.env, replacing YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY with your key. Start Atomic Agent after saving the file.

```bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY
```

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

The Refiner MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Refiner account. It provides structured and secure access to your customer feedback and survey data, so your agent can perform actions like fetching contacts, analyzing survey responses, managing user segments, updating user data, and generating reports on your behalf.
- Contact management and updates: Effortlessly retrieve, update, or delete contact records, allowing your agent to keep user data clean and up-to-date.
- Survey and form discovery: Instantly list all surveys or forms in your Refiner account, filter by state, and access their configurations for deeper analysis or reporting.
- Survey response retrieval and analytics: Pull in all survey responses, filter results, and generate detailed analytics or reporting to uncover actionable insights from your customer feedback.
- User segmentation and targeting: Fetch and browse user segments, enabling your agent to target specific groups for outreach or further analysis based on collected data.
- Event tracking and behavioral logging: Automatically record user events, associate them with contacts, and enrich feedback data for advanced behavioral analytics.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `REFINER_DELETE_CONTACT` | Delete Contact | Tool to delete a specific contact by its identifier. Provide either the user ID or email address to identify and delete the contact. |
| `REFINER_GET_ACCOUNT_INFO` | Get Account Info | Retrieves Refiner account information including subscription plan, usage limits, and environment statistics. This action provides: - Current subscription plan and usage limits (MTU, MTE, MPV, MSR) - Usage counters for monthly tracked users, events, page views, and survey responses - Per-environment breakdown of usage statistics - Last updated timestamps for all usage metrics Use this when you need to check account status, monitor usage against limits, or audit environment statistics. |
| `REFINER_GET_CONTACT` | Get Contact | Retrieve detailed information about a specific contact using their ID, email, or UUID. Returns all stored attributes, segments, and account information. |
| `REFINER_GET_CONTACTS` | Get Contacts | Tool to retrieve a list of contacts from your Refiner account. Use when you need to filter or paginate through contacts. |
| `REFINER_GET_FORMS` | Get Forms | Tool to retrieve a list of forms (surveys) from your Refiner account with optional filtering and pagination. Use when you need to list surveys by state, page, or include extra info/config. |
| `REFINER_GET_REPORTING` | Get Reporting | Tool to retrieve aggregated reporting data for surveys including metrics and analytics. Use when you need survey analytics over a time range filtered by type, question identifiers, tags, forms, or segments. |
| `REFINER_GET_RESPONSES` | Get Survey Responses | Tool to retrieve all survey responses from your Refiner account with optional filtering and pagination. Use after confirming survey creation to pull response data. |
| `REFINER_GET_SEGMENTS` | Get Segments | Tool to retrieve a list of user segments from your Refiner account. Use when you need to view or paginate segments. |
| `REFINER_TRACK_EVENT` | Track Event | Tool to record a user event by name for a user identified via user ID or email. Use after confirming the identifier and event name. |
| `REFINER_UPDATE_CONTACT` | Update Contact | Tool to create or update a contact's attributes or account. Identifies a contact by `id` or `email` and updates their traits or account grouping. If the contact doesn't exist, it will be created automatically. |

## 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](/pricing) for the current limits that apply to your connection.

## Complete Code

## Conclusion

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

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Refiner MCP?

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Atomic Agent?

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 Refiner tools.

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

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