## Introduction

OpenClaw is the fastest growing agent harness out there, which can work 24/7 to automate almost any kind of tasks. However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Servicem8 with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Servicem8 via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio?
Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:
- Programmatic tool calling allows LLMs to write its code in a remote workbench to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
- Handling Large tool responses out of LLM context to minimize context rot.
- Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

## What is the Servicem8 MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Servicem8 MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Servicem8 account. It provides structured and secure access to your job management system, so your agent can perform actions like creating jobs, managing notes and payments, listing clients, and retrieving templates on your behalf.
- Job creation and management: Instruct your agent to create new jobs, add detailed job information, or update records, streamlining field service operations.
- Automated note handling: Have your agent attach important notes to jobs or remove outdated notes to keep job records clean and up-to-date.
- Payment processing and tracking: Let your agent record new job payments or archive payment records, ensuring accurate and timely invoicing.
- Comprehensive client and asset retrieval: Ask your agent to pull complete lists of clients and assets for reporting, integrations, or inventory management.
- Template and form discovery: Fetch available document templates and forms so your agent can prepare job paperwork or gather required information efficiently.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `SERVICEM8_CREATE_JOB_NOTE` | ServiceM8 Create Job Note | Create a new job note in ServiceM8. Requires the job's UUID (related_object_uuid) and the note content. Returns the UUID of the created note record. Use this to add comments, updates, or action items to a specific job. |
| `SERVICEM8_CREATE_JOB_PAYMENT` | ServiceM8 Create Job Payment | Tool to create a new job payment in ServiceM8. Use when you have collected payment details and need to record payment against a job. Example: "Create a 100.00 cash payment for job 123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000 at 2023-01-01 13:00:00." |
| `SERVICEM8_CREATE_JOBS` | Create a new Job | Tool to create a new Job in ServiceM8. Use when you have gathered all job details and need to push a record. Example: "Create a Quote job for 123 Main St with PO #1234." |
| `SERVICEM8_DELETE_CUSTOM_FIELD` | Delete Custom Field | Delete a custom field in ServiceM8 by its UUID. Use this when you need to permanently remove a custom field definition from the system. This will remove the custom field and any associated data. |
| `SERVICEM8_DELETE_JOB_NOTE` | Delete Job Note | Deletes (archives) a job note in ServiceM8 by its UUID. Use this tool when you need to remove a note from a job's diary. In ServiceM8, deletion is a soft-delete: the note is archived (active=0) rather than permanently removed, and can be restored later if needed. Prerequisites: You need the note's UUID, which can be obtained from the 'List All Job Notes' or 'Retrieve Job Note' actions. |
| `SERVICEM8_DELETE_JOB_PAYMENT` | Delete Job Payment | Archives (soft-deletes) a job payment record in ServiceM8 by its UUID. In ServiceM8, records are never permanently deleted. Instead, deletion sets the record's 'active' field to 0, which hides it from the UI but keeps it accessible via the API. Archived records can be restored by setting their 'active' field back to 1. Use this tool when you need to remove a payment record from active use, such as when a payment was recorded in error or needs to be voided. Requires the 'manage_job_payments' OAuth scope. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_ASSETS` | List All Assets | Tool to list all ServiceM8 assets. Use when you need a comprehensive asset registry, including custom fields, for inventory or reporting. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_CLIENTS` | List All Clients | Tool to list all ServiceM8 clients. Use when you need a complete set of customer records for integrations or reporting. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_DOCUMENT_TEMPLATES` | List All Document Templates | Tool to list document templates. Use when you need to retrieve available template UUIDs and names before generating job documents. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_FORMS` | List All Forms | Tool to list all ServiceM8 forms. Use when you need to fetch available form templates with optional filters. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_JOB_NOTES` | List All Job Notes | List all job notes from ServiceM8. Use this tool to: - Retrieve all notes across all jobs (no filter) - Get notes for a specific job using filter: "related_object_uuid eq ''" - Filter by active status: "active eq 1" for active notes only The response contains a list of note records with their content, timestamps, and associated job UUIDs. For large result sets, use cursor-based pagination: pass cursor='-1' for the first page, then use the 'next_cursor' value from each response to fetch subsequent pages. Each page returns up to 5,000 records. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_JOB_QUEUES` | List All Job Queues | List all job queues in ServiceM8. Job queues are virtual folders for organizing jobs on hold. Use this to fetch available queues before assigning jobs to a queue, or to check queue configurations. Returns both regular queues (for jobs waiting on external actions) and assignable queues (for staff assignments). |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_JOBS` | List All Jobs | Tool to list all jobs. Use when you need to fetch all job records from your ServiceM8 account. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_LOCATIONS` | List All Locations | Lists all ServiceM8 locations. Use to fetch configured service areas, office locations, or warehouses for job assignments, mapping, or reporting. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_MATERIALS` | List All Materials | Retrieve all materials (products, labour rates, inventory items) from ServiceM8. Use this to get a complete catalog of materials for quoting, invoicing, or inventory management. Requires the 'read_inventory' OAuth scope. |
| `SERVICEM8_LIST_ALL_TASKS` | List All Tasks | Retrieves all tasks from a ServiceM8 account with optional filtering and cursor-based pagination. Use this to fetch task records, track task assignments, monitor completion status, or sync task data. Requires 'read_tasks' OAuth scope. |
| `SERVICEM8_RETRIEVE_CLIENT` | Retrieve ServiceM8 Client | Tool to retrieve details of a specific client by its UUID. Use after confirming the client's UUID is valid. |
| `SERVICEM8_RETRIEVE_FORM` | Retrieve Form | Retrieve details of a specific form template by its UUID. Use this tool when you have a form UUID and need to fetch its metadata, such as form name, description, and status. Requires the Forms add-on to be enabled in ServiceM8. |
| `SERVICEM8_RETRIEVE_JOB` | Retrieve Job | Tool to retrieve details of a specific job by its UUID. Use when you have the Job UUID and need its full record. |
| `SERVICEM8_RETRIEVE_JOB_ACTIVITY` | Retrieve Job Activity | Tool to retrieve details of a specific job activity by its UUID. Use when you have the job activity UUID and need its full details. |
| `SERVICEM8_RETRIEVE_JOB_NOTE` | Retrieve Job Note | Retrieve the full details of a specific job note by its UUID. Use this action when you have a note UUID (e.g., from listing job notes) and need to view its complete record including content, timestamps, and the associated job reference. |

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Servicem8 MCP?

With a standalone Servicem8 MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Servicem8 tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Servicem8 and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenClaw?

Yes, you can. OpenClaw 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 Servicem8 tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Servicem8 while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Servicem8 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 Servicem8 data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
