## Introduction

Atomic Agent is an open-source AI agent that runs on your machine and supports local models through llama.cpp. Connect it to 1,500+ apps through Composio, including Starton.
This guide uses Atomic Agent's built-in Composio integration. You need Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later, your own Composio API key, and a Starton account. See the [Atomic Agent documentation](https://atomicagent.io/docs/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-docs) for installation instructions.

## TL;DR

### How Atomic Agent connects to Starton
Atomic Agent connects to Composio's Tool Router over Streamable HTTP MCP. It discovers the tools needed for your request, and Composio handles account authentication.
Execution and account-connection tools follow Atomic Agent's configured approval policy. Review any approval prompt before allowing an action on your connected account.

## Connect Starton to Atomic Agent

### Connect Starton to Atomic Agent
- Sign up or sign in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev/?cta_placement=atomic-agent-api-key). Copy your API key.
- In Atomic Agent, open the Integrations tab and select Composio. Select API key, press e, paste the key, and press Enter. The tools become available immediately, without a restart.
- Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Starton. It searches Composio for the right tool.
- On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Starton account, then return to Atomic Agent to continue.
### Headless setup
Add the following line to ~/.atomic-agent/.env, replacing YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY with your key. Start Atomic Agent after saving the file.

```bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY
```

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

The Starton MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Starton account. It provides structured and secure access to your Web3 projects, so your agent can perform actions like managing smart contracts, uploading files to IPFS, monitoring blockchain events, and handling webhooks on your behalf.
- Smart contract management and discovery: Retrieve lists of your deployed or imported smart contracts, browse contract templates, and explore contract details for seamless project oversight.
- Blockchain event monitoring: List, review, and manage watchers to keep tabs on critical blockchain events and get notified about on-chain activity relevant to your contracts.
- IPFS file uploads: Effortlessly upload files to your project's IPFS storage, enabling decentralized file hosting directly from your agent.
- Webhook oversight and configuration: Fetch and review all webhook watchers set up in your Starton project, making it simple to manage integrations and monitor workflows.
- Event watcher lifecycle management: Retrieve, update, or delete specific smart contract event watchers by their ID, giving you fine-grained control over how your agent tracks blockchain activity.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `STARTON_DELETE_SMART_CONTRACT_EVENT` | Delete Smart Contract Event | Tool to delete a specific smart contract event watcher by its ID. Use after confirming the watcher ID you want to remove. |
| `STARTON_GET_SMART_CONTRACTS` | Get Smart Contracts | Tool to retrieve a list of all smart contracts associated with your project. Use after authenticating and optionally filtering by project ID. |
| `STARTON_GET_TEMPLATES` | Get Templates | Tool to retrieve a list of all smart contract templates. Use when browsing the Starton template library to select a template before deployment. |
| `STARTON_GET_WATCHER` | Get Watcher | Tool to retrieve details of a specific watcher by its ID. Use when you need to confirm its configuration before updating or deleting. |
| `STARTON_GET_WEBHOOKS` | Get Webhooks | Tool to retrieve a list of all webhook watchers. Use after creating watchers to review existing watchers. |
| `STARTON_UPLOAD_FILE` | Upload File to IPFS | Tool to upload a file to your project's IPFS storage. Use after preparing the file you want to host on IPFS. |

## Troubleshooting

### Why is my API key rejected?

Copy the key directly from the Composio dashboard. Atomic Agent requires ASCII characters because it sends the key in an HTTP header. Remove any extra characters introduced when copying.

### Why are Composio tools unavailable after saving a key?

Check that you use Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later and that Composio is enabled in your configuration. A "composio": { "enabled": false } setting disables the integration while keeping the saved key on disk.

### Does Composio have a free plan?

The Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month. Composio-managed OAuth apps have a lower included allowance. See [Composio pricing](/pricing) for the current limits that apply to your connection.

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Use Starton from Atomic Agent
With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with Starton in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Atomic Agent?

Yes, you can. Atomic Agent 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 Starton tools.

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

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