How to integrate Respond io MCP with Atomic Agent

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 Respond io.

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 Respond io account. See the Atomic Agent documentation for installation instructions.

How Atomic Agent connects to Respond io

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 Respond io 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 Respond io. It searches Composio for the right tool.
4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Respond io 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.

The Respond io MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Respond io account. It provides structured and secure access to your customer conversation management platform, so your agent can perform actions like managing contacts, adding internal comments, creating and updating tags, and retrieving messages on your behalf.

• Create and manage contacts: Easily have your agent add new customer contacts to your workspace, ensuring your CRM is always up to date.
• Add internal comments to conversations: Let your agent insert internal notes into customer conversations, keeping your team informed and collaborating seamlessly.
• Retrieve and organize channels: Direct your agent to list all messaging channels connected to your workspace, making it simple to audit or assign channels for support.
• Tag and categorize conversations: Enable your agent to create new tags or update existing ones, helping you organize contacts and conversations for efficient follow-up.
• Fetch specific messages: Ask your agent to pull up particular messages for review or context, streamlining support and follow-up actions.

Use Respond io from Atomic Agent

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