Shipengine MCP server for AI agents and assistants
Securely connect your AI agents and chatbots (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc) with Shipengine MCP or direct API to create shipping labels, track packages, validate addresses, and manage carrier rates through natural language.
Api Key
ShipEngine is a shipping API that connects with multiple carriers to manage shipments, labels, and tracking. Streamline your shipping process and reduce manual effort with one unified tool.

SETUP GUIDE
Connect Shipengine MCP Tool with your Agent
1
Install Composio
typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcpInstall the Composio SDK and Claude Agent SDK
2
Create Tool Router Session
typescript
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: 'your-api-key' });
console.log("Creating Tool Router session...");
const { mcp } = await composio.create('your-user-id');
console.log(`Tool Router session created: ${mcp.url}`);Initialize the Composio client and create a Tool Router session
3
Connect to AI Agent
typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from 'ai';
const client = await createMCPClient({
transport: {
type: 'http',
url: mcp.url,
headers: { 'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key' }
}
});
const tools = await client.tools();
const { text } = await generateText({
model: openai('gpt-4o'),
tools,
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Generate a shipping label for a UPS ground shipment from New York to Los Angeles' }],
stopWhen: stepCountIs( 5 )
});
console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);Use the MCP server with your AI agent

Initialize Composio and Create Tool Router Session
typescript
import OpenAI from 'openai';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from '@composio/openai';
const composio = new Composio({
provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider(),
});
const openai = new OpenAI({});
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');Import and initialize Composio client, then create a Tool Router session
3
Execute Shipengine Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent
typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
model: 'gpt-4.1',
tools: tools,
input: [{
role: 'user',
content: 'Track a FedEx package with tracking number 123456789'
}],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(
'your-user-id',
response.output
);
console.log(result);Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Shipengine actions with your Agent

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Yes, Shipengine requires you to configure your own API key credentials. Once set up, Composio handles secure credential storage and API request handling for you.
Yes! Composio's Tool Router enables agents to use multiple toolkits. Learn more.
Yes. Composio is SOC 2 Type II compliant and is built to keep your Shipengine connection and credentials secure. OAuth tokens and API keys are encrypted, and sensitive customer data is protected at rest and in transit.
Composio also undergoes independent security testing and continuously monitors its systems for security threats. You can review the latest reports and policies in the Composio Trust Center.
Composio maintains and updates all toolkit integrations automatically, so your agents always work with the latest API versions.
Create the key in your Shipengine account settings, then paste it once on Composio's connection page. Composio stores it encrypted and uses it only for the Shipengine actions your agent runs. Nobody else in your workspace can read it, and you can revoke it inside Shipengine at any time.
When you connect a Shipengine account through Composio, every action runs under that account, so anything the agent creates, sends, or changes shows up in Shipengine as done by you. Keep an approval step in your prompt for actions with side effects, such as sending or deleting, and have the agent draft first.
Whatever the credentials you connect allow inside Shipengine. If Shipengine lets you scope a key to specific permissions, create a scoped one so the agent can only do what you intend. You can revoke the key inside Shipengine at any time.
Yes. Composio supports multiple connected accounts for the same app, and that works in Claude, ChatGPT, or any other assistant you connect through Composio. Give each Shipengine connection a name such as work or personal, and the assistant uses the one you mention in the request. Each account keeps its own credentials and nothing is merged.
The connection stops working the moment Shipengine rejects the old key. Create a new key in Shipengine and reconnect the account from the Composio dashboard or by asking your agent to reconnect Shipengine. Nothing else changes.
Composio's free plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month with no credit card, which covers most personal Shipengine use. Paid plans add higher limits and team features. Your Shipengine plan and its API limits still apply as usual.
Built-in connectors usually give one AI access to a limited set of apps. Many people use Composio because it lets their AI connect to more apps than it normally supports, or connect to multiple accounts for the same app (e.g. connect Claude to multiple Shipengine accounts).
With Composio, you connect Shipengine once and then use it across different AI assistants without setting it up separately in each one. Connect your apps to Composio once, then connect Composio to whichever AI you use, whether that's Claude, ChatGPT, Hermes, or your own custom assistant.
