However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Strava with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Strava via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer. ## Also integrate Strava with - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/chatgpt) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/codex) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/cursor) - [VS Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/vscode) - [OpenCode](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/opencode) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/strava/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 Strava to OpenClaw ### How to install Strava 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 Strava 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 Strava MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Strava MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Strava account. It provides structured and secure access to your fitness data, so your agent can perform actions like fetching activities, analyzing stats, logging workouts, managing routes, and exploring your social fitness feed on your behalf. - Workout tracking and retrieval: Let your agent pull detailed records of your recent runs, rides, and other logged activities, complete with stats, maps, and performance data. - Fitness analytics and progress insights: Have your agent analyze your weekly or monthly trends, highlight PRs, and summarize progress toward your training goals. - Route exploration and management: Ask your agent to list, suggest, or organize your favorite routes and segments for upcoming workouts or challenges. - Social engagement automation: Enable your agent to fetch kudos, summarize comments, or surface activity highlights from friends and clubs in your Strava network. - Activity creation and editing: Allow your agent to log new activities, edit workout details, or update activity metadata for accurate record keeping. ## Supported Tools None listed. ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Strava MCP server provides comprehensive access to Strava operations through Composio. Once connected, you can perform all major Strava actions directly from OpenClaw using natural language commands. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Conclusion You've successfully integrated Strava with OpenClaw using Composio plugin.

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