What is Pydantic AI?

Pydantic AI is a Python framework for building AI agents with strong typing and validation. It leverages Pydantic's data validation capabilities to create robust, type-safe AI applications.

Key features include:

Type Safety: Built on Pydantic for automatic data validation
MCP Support: Native support for Model Context Protocol servers
Streaming: Built-in support for streaming responses
Async First: Designed for async/await patterns

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

The Salesflare MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Salesflare account. It provides structured and secure access to your accounts, contacts, opportunities, tasks, meetings, and calls, so your agent can manage customer records, track deals, schedule follow-ups, record sales activities, and review pipeline data on your behalf.

Account and contact management: Have your agent create, find, update, or remove contacts, and create, review, or update customer accounts.
Opportunity tracking: Let the agent create opportunities, review individual deals, filter your opportunity list, and update deals as they move through your pipeline.
Task and follow-up planning: Direct your agent to create sales tasks and list existing tasks using relevant filters so your team knows what to do next.
Meeting and call records: Instruct your agent to create meeting records and log one or more sales calls in Salesflare.
Team and CRM visibility: Have your agent review your contacts, accounts, team members, and current user details to gather the context needed for sales work.

What is the Composio tool router, and how does it fit here?

What is Composio SDK?

Composio's Composio SDK helps agents find the right tools for a task at runtime. You can plug in multiple toolkits (like Gmail, HubSpot, and GitHub), and the agent will identify the relevant app and action to complete multi-step workflows. This can reduce token usage and improve the reliability of tool calls. Read more here: Getting started with Composio SDK

The tool router generates a secure MCP URL that your agents can access to perform actions.

How the Composio SDK works

The Composio SDK follows a three-phase workflow:

Discovery: Searches for tools matching your task and returns relevant toolkits with their details.
Authentication: Checks for active connections. If missing, creates an auth config and returns a connection URL via Auth Link.
Execution: Executes the action using the authenticated connection.

Step-by-step Guide

Step by step09 STEPS

Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:

Python 3.9 or higher
A Composio account with an active API key
Basic familiarity with Python and async programming

Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key

Go to the OpenAI dashboard and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider.
Keep the API key safe.

Composio API Key

Log in to the Composio dashboard.
Navigate to your API settings and generate a new API key.
Store this key securely as you'll need it for authentication.

Install dependencies

bash

pip install composio pydantic-ai python-dotenv

Install the required libraries.

What's happening:

composio connects your agent to external SaaS tools like Salesflare
pydantic-ai lets you create structured AI agents with tool support
python-dotenv loads your environment variables securely from a .env file

Set up environment variables

bash

COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here
USER_ID=your_user_id_here
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key

Create a .env file in your project root.

What's happening:

COMPOSIO_API_KEY authenticates your agent to Composio's API
USER_ID associates your session with your account for secure tool access
OPENAI_API_KEY to access OpenAI LLMs

Import dependencies

python

import asyncio
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from composio import Composio
from pydantic_ai import Agent
from pydantic_ai.mcp import MCPServerStreamableHTTP

load_dotenv()

What's happening:

We load environment variables and import required modules
Composio manages connections to Salesflare
MCPServerStreamableHTTP connects to the Salesflare MCP server endpoint
Agent from Pydantic AI lets you define and run the AI assistant

Create a Tool Router Session

python

async def main():
    api_key = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
    user_id = os.getenv("USER_ID")
    if not api_key or not user_id:
        raise RuntimeError("Set COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID in your environment")

    # Create a Composio Tool Router session for Salesflare
    composio = Composio(api_key=api_key)
    session = composio.create(
        user_id=user_id,
        toolkits=["salesflare"],
    )
    url = session.mcp.url
    if not url:
        raise ValueError("Composio session did not return an MCP URL")

What's happening:

We're creating a Tool Router session that gives your agent access to Salesflare tools
The create method takes the user ID and specifies which toolkits should be available
The returned session.mcp.url is the MCP server URL that your agent will use

Initialize the Pydantic AI Agent

python

# Attach the MCP server to a Pydantic AI Agent
salesflare_mcp = MCPServerStreamableHTTP(url, headers={"x-api-key": COMPOSIO_API_KEY})
agent = Agent(
    "openai:gpt-5",
    toolsets=[salesflare_mcp],
    instructions=(
        "You are a Salesflare assistant. Use Salesflare tools to help users "
        "with their requests. Ask clarifying questions when needed."
    ),
)

What's happening:

The MCP client connects to the Salesflare endpoint
The agent uses GPT-5 to interpret user commands and perform Salesflare operations
The instructions field defines the agent's role and behavior

Build the chat interface

python

# Simple REPL with message history
history = []
print("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end.\n")
print("Try asking the agent to help you with Salesflare.\n")

while True:
    user_input = input("You: ").strip()
    if user_input.lower() in {"exit", "quit", "bye"}:
        print("\nGoodbye!")
        break
    if not user_input:
        continue

    print("\nAgent is thinking...\n", flush=True)

    async with agent.run_stream(user_input, message_history=history) as stream_result:
        collected_text = ""
        async for chunk in stream_result.stream_output():
            text_piece = None
            if isinstance(chunk, str):
                text_piece = chunk
            elif hasattr(chunk, "delta") and isinstance(chunk.delta, str):
                text_piece = chunk.delta
            elif hasattr(chunk, "text"):
                text_piece = chunk.text
            if text_piece:
                collected_text += text_piece
        result = stream_result

    print(f"Agent: {collected_text}\n")
    history = result.all_messages()

What's happening:

The agent reads input from the terminal and streams its response
Salesflare API calls happen automatically under the hood
The model keeps conversation history to maintain context across turns

Run the application

python

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

What's happening:

The asyncio loop launches the agent and keeps it running until you exit

Conclusion

You've built a Pydantic AI agent that can interact with Salesflare through Composio's Tool Router. With this setup, your agent can perform real Salesflare actions through natural language. You can extend this further by:

Adding other toolkits like Gmail, HubSpot, or Salesforce
Building a web-based chat interface around this agent
Using multiple MCP endpoints to enable cross-app workflows (for example, Gmail + Salesflare for workflow automation)

This architecture makes your AI agent "agent-native", able to securely use APIs in a unified, composable way without custom integrations.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

Yes, you can. Pydantic AI 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 Salesflare tools.

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