## TL;DR

Here's what you'll learn:
- Get and set up your OpenAI and Composio API keys
- Install the necessary dependencies
- Initialize Composio and create a Tool Router session for Simplesat
- Configure an AI agent that can use Simplesat as a tool
- Run a live chat session where you can ask the agent to perform Simplesat operations

## What is OpenAI Agents SDK?

The OpenAI Agents SDK is a lightweight framework for building AI agents that can use tools and maintain conversation state. It provides a simple interface for creating agents with hosted MCP tool support.
Key features include:
- Hosted MCP Tools: Connect to external services through hosted MCP endpoints
- SQLite Sessions: Persist conversation history across interactions
- Simple API: Clean interface with Agent, Runner, and tool configuration
- Streaming Support: Real-time response streaming for interactive applications

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

The Simplesat MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Simplesat account. It provides structured and secure access to your customer feedback platform, so your agent can perform actions like managing customer records, updating team members, streamlining survey workflows, and keeping your feedback data consistent.
- Automated customer record management: Easily create new customers or update existing customer details in Simplesat using only an email address—no manual entry needed.
- Seamless team member administration: Add new team members or update their information, including names, roles, and contact details, without digging through the Simplesat dashboard.
- Synchronize CRM data with Simplesat: Keep your customer and team member lists up to date by letting your agent push changes from your CRM or helpdesk directly into Simplesat.
- Bulk onboarding and updates: Efficiently onboard new team members or migrate customer data in bulk by automating repetitive record creation or updates.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `SIMPLESAT_CREATE_OR_UPDATE_CUSTOMER2` | Create or Update Customer V2 | Tool to create a new customer or update an existing customer if one already exists with the same email. Use when you need to add or modify customer information including name, email, company, tags, external_id, and custom attributes. |
| `SIMPLESAT_CREATE_OR_UPDATE_TEAM_MEMBER` | Create or Update Team Member | This tool creates a new team member or updates an existing one if a team member with the same email address is found. It is an independent action that requires only basic team member information (email, first_name, last_name, and optionally title and phone) and does not depend on any other resource IDs. |
| `SIMPLESAT_GET_CUSTOMER` | Get Customer | Tool to retrieve a single customer by their Simplesat ID. Returns customer details including name, email, company, tags, and custom attributes. |
| `SIMPLESAT_LIST_QUESTIONS` | List Questions | Tool to retrieve a paginated list of all questions in Simplesat. Use when you need to fetch question details including order, metric type, text, rating scale, choices, and conditional rules. Supports filtering by metric (csat, nps, ces) and survey_id. |
| `SIMPLESAT_LIST_SURVEYS` | List Surveys | Tool to list all surveys in the Simplesat account. Returns survey details including id, name, and metric type (CSAT, NPS, CES). Use when you need to retrieve available surveys or find a specific survey by name or metric type. |
| `SIMPLESAT_SEARCH_ANSWERS` | Search Answers | Tool to search and retrieve answers from Simplesat with advanced filtering. Use when you need to find specific answers based on filters like date range, choice value, sentiment, survey, customer, or custom attributes. If no filters are provided, returns all answers from the last 30 days by default. |
| `SIMPLESAT_SEARCH_RESPONSES` | Search Responses | Tool to search and retrieve responses from Simplesat by applying specific filters. Returns all responses from the last 30 days by default if no date range is specified. Supports filtering by date range, choice value, collaborator, company, comment, customer, sentiment, metric, survey, tag, team member, ticket_id, and custom attributes. Use this when you need to find specific responses based on criteria like sentiment, customer, or time period. |
| `SIMPLESAT_UPDATE_CUSTOMER` | Update Customer | Tool to update an existing customer by their Simplesat ID. Use when you need to modify customer information such as name, email, company, external ID, tags, or custom attributes. |

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Simplesat MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Simplesat. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Simplesat operations on your behalf through a secure, permission-based interface.
With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster.

## Step-by-step Guide

### 1. Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:
- Composio API Key and OpenAI API Key
- Primary know-how of OpenAI Agents SDK
- A live Simplesat project
- Some knowledge of Python or Typescript

### 1. Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key
- Go to the [OpenAI dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys) 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](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs).
- Go to Settings and copy your API key.

### 2. Install dependencies

Install the Composio SDK and the OpenAI Agents SDK.
```python
pip install composio_openai_agents openai-agents python-dotenv
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai-agents @openai/agents dotenv
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file and add your OpenAI and Composio API keys.
```bash
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...your-api-key
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-api-key
USER_ID=composio_user@gmail.com
```

### 4. Import dependencies

What's happening:
- You're importing all necessary libraries.
- The Composio and OpenAIAgentsProvider classes are imported to connect your OpenAI agent to Composio tools like Simplesat.
```python
import asyncio
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

from composio import Composio
from composio_openai_agents import OpenAIAgentsProvider
from agents import Agent, Runner, HostedMCPTool, SQLiteSession
```

```typescript
import 'dotenv/config';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIAgentsProvider } from '@composio/openai-agents';
import { Agent, hostedMcpTool, run, OpenAIConversationsSession } from '@openai/agents';
import * as readline from 'readline';
```

### 5. Set up the Composio instance

No description provided.
```python
load_dotenv()

api_key = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
user_id = os.getenv("USER_ID")

if not api_key:
    raise RuntimeError("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key")

# Initialize Composio
composio = Composio(api_key=api_key, provider=OpenAIAgentsProvider())
```

```typescript
dotenv.config();

const composioApiKey = process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY;
const userId = process.env.USER_ID;

if (!composioApiKey) {
  throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key');
}
if (!userId) {
  throw new Error('USER_ID is not set');
}

// Initialize Composio
const composio = new Composio({
  apiKey: composioApiKey,
  provider: new OpenAIAgentsProvider(),
});
```

### 6. Create a Tool Router session

What is happening:
- You give the Tool Router the user id and the toolkits you want available. Here, it is only simplesat.
- The router checks the user's Simplesat connection and prepares the MCP endpoint.
- The returned session.mcp.url is the MCP URL that your agent will use to access Simplesat.
- This approach keeps things lightweight and lets the agent request Simplesat tools only when needed during the conversation.
```python
# Create a Simplesat Tool Router session
session = composio.create(
    user_id=user_id,
    toolkits=["simplesat"]
)

mcp_url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
// Create Tool Router session for Simplesat
const session = await composio.create(userId as string, {
  toolkits: ['simplesat'],
});
const mcpUrl = session.mcp.url;
```

### 7. Configure the agent

No description provided.
```python
# Configure agent with MCP tool
agent = Agent(
    name="Assistant",
    model="gpt-5",
    instructions=(
        "You are a helpful assistant that can access Simplesat. "
        "Help users perform Simplesat operations through natural language."
    ),
    tools=[
        HostedMCPTool(
            tool_config={
                "type": "mcp",
                "server_label": "tool_router",
                "server_url": mcp_url,
                "headers": {"x-api-key": api_key},
                "require_approval": "never",
            }
        )
    ],
)
```

```typescript
// Configure agent with MCP tool
const agent = new Agent({
  name: 'Assistant',
  model: 'gpt-5',
  instructions:
    'You are a helpful assistant that can access Simplesat. Help users perform Simplesat operations through natural language.',
  tools: [
    hostedMcpTool({
      serverLabel: 'tool_router',
      serverUrl: mcpUrl,
      headers: { 'x-api-key': composioApiKey },
      requireApproval: 'never',
    }),
  ],
});
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes, you can. OpenAI Agents SDK 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 Simplesat tools.

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

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