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 RunPod account. See the [Atomic Agent documentation](https://atomicagent.io/docs/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-docs) for installation instructions. ## Also integrate RunPod with - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/chatgpt) - [Antigravity](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/antigravity) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/codex) - [Grok Build](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/grok-build) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/cursor) - [VS Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/vscode) - [OpenCode](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/opencode) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/hermes-agent) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/crew-ai) - [Pydantic AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/pydantic-ai) - [AutoGen](https://composio.dev/toolkits/runpod/framework/autogen) ## TL;DR ### How Atomic Agent connects to RunPod 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 RunPod to Atomic Agent ### Connect RunPod 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 RunPod. It searches Composio for the right tool. - On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your RunPod 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 RunPod MCP server, and what's possible with it? The RunPod MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your RunPod account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform RunPod operations on your behalf. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `RUNPOD_CREATE_CLUSTER` | Create RunPod Cluster | Tool to create a new GPU cluster for multi-node distributed computing workloads on RunPod. Use when you need to deploy multiple pods with shared configuration for parallel processing, ML training, or HPC workloads. | | `RUNPOD_CREATE_SECRET` | Create Secret | Tool to create a new secure secret in RunPod for credential management. Use when you need to store sensitive values like API keys, passwords, or tokens that will be accessible in pods and endpoints via environment variables (RUNPOD_SECRET_). | | `RUNPOD_DELETE_REGISTRY_AUTH` | Delete Container Registry Authentication | Tool to delete container registry authentication from RunPod. Use when you need to remove stored registry credentials. | | `RUNPOD_DELETE_TEMPLATE` | Delete Template | Tool to remove a RunPod template via GraphQL mutation.

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 None listed. ## Conclusion ### Use RunPod from Atomic Agent With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with RunPod in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

With a standalone RunPod MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of RunPod tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from RunPod 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 RunPod tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for RunPod while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which RunPod 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 RunPod data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
