However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Smugmug with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Smugmug via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer. ## Also integrate Smugmug with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/codex) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/smugmug/framework/crew-ai) ## 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. ## Connect Smugmug to OpenClaw ### How to install Smugmug with OpenClaw ### Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt - Go to [dashboard.composio.dev](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?next=/~/org/connect/clients/openclaw&utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=openclaw&utm_content=setup_prompt) - Copy the setup prompt - Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface. - Authenticate Smugmug from the [dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?next=/~/org/connect/clients/openclaw&utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=openclaw&utm_content=authenticate) - Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions. ### Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin 1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin ```bash openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-plugin ``` ## What is the Smugmug MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Smugmug MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Smugmug account. It provides structured and secure access to your photo galleries and user profile, so your agent can perform actions like browsing folders, listing albums, retrieving photo details, and exploring your Smugmug structure on your behalf. - Retrieve folder and album details: Instantly fetch information about specific folders or albums, including creation dates, node IDs, and highlight albums. - Explore your Smugmug hierarchy: Ask your agent to list all child nodes—albums or folders—within any parent node, helping you navigate your photo organization with ease. - List albums in any folder: Let your agent pull comprehensive lists of albums within a designated folder, even handling large collections with pagination. - Get public user profile info: Retrieve your Smugmug public profile details to share or review your online photography presence. - Access node-specific data: Have your agent look up details for any node (album, folder, or page) using its unique identifier, supporting granular photo management and discovery. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `SMUGMUG_GET_ALBUM` | Get Album | Retrieves detailed information about a SmugMug album using its album key. Returns album settings, metadata, image count, and links to related resources like images and user info. Use this to get comprehensive details about a specific album/gallery. | | `SMUGMUG_GET_ALBUM_HIGHLIGHT_IMAGE` | Get Album Highlight Image | Retrieves the highlight/cover image for a SmugMug album.

Use this when you need to get the featured image for an album. | | `SMUGMUG_GET_ALBUM_IMAGE` | Get Album Image | Get an image within a specific album context as an AlbumImage relationship object. Returns detailed information about the image including metadata, dimensions, URLs, and relationships. Use this when you need to retrieve a specific image from an album with full album context. | | `SMUGMUG_GET_ALBUM_IMAGES` | Get Album Images | Tool to retrieve all images in a SmugMug album as AlbumImage relationship objects. Use this action when you need to list or access images within a specific album. An AlbumImage represents the relationship between an album and an image, which is useful because the same image may appear in multiple albums. The response includes image metadata, URIs for different sizes, and pagination support for large albums. Returns AlbumImage objects with fields like ImageKey, Title, Caption, WebUri, ArchivedUri, and nested Uris for accessing related resources (ImageSizes, LargestImage, etc.). | | `SMUGMUG_GET_FOLDER_ALBUMS` | Get Folder Albums | Tool to retrieve albums from a specific folder in a SmugMug user's account by nickname and folder path.

Returns folder metadata including name, description, URL path, creation and modification dates, node ID, and optionally the URI of the album set as the highlight image for the folder. Note: This action only works with Folder-type nodes. If a non-folder node ID (e.g., Album) is provided, an error will be raised. Use SMUGMUG_GET_NODE_DETAILS for general node information. | | `SMUGMUG_GET_FOLDER_SUBFOLDERS` | Get Folder Subfolders | Retrieves all subfolders within a specified folder in a SmugMug user's account. Use this action to navigate the folder hierarchy by fetching direct child folders of a given parent folder.

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