How to integrate Rootly 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 Rootly.

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 Rootly account. See the Atomic Agent documentation for installation instructions.

How Atomic Agent connects to Rootly

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 Rootly 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 Rootly. It searches Composio for the right tool.
4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Rootly 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 Rootly MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Rootly account. It provides structured and secure access to your incident action items, so your agent can list, review, retrieve detailed information, and manage follow-up tasks on your behalf during or after incidents.

• Comprehensive action item retrieval: Instantly list all incident-related action items, making it easy for your agent to track ongoing or outstanding tasks.
• Detailed action item inspection: Pull up in-depth information for any action item—including summary, description, priority, status, and due date—to keep teams informed and accountable.
• Streamlined task management: Direct your agent to remove obsolete or completed action items, ensuring your incident follow-up list stays relevant and up to date.
• Automated follow-up coordination: Use your agent to monitor and organize post-incident tasks, helping your team close the loop on every incident and maintain operational excellence.

Use Rootly from Atomic Agent

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