## TL;DR

### Why use Composio?
Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:
- CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
- Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise 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 GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

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

The Superchat MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Superchat account. It provides structured and secure access to your unified messaging platform, so your agent can perform actions like managing contacts, listing conversations, organizing templates, and retrieving channel information across messaging channels on your behalf.
- Unified contact management: Easily create, fetch, and list contacts, allowing your agent to manage your customer database and keep your communications up to date.
- Conversation and channel insights: Ask your agent to list all ongoing conversations and available messaging channels, making it easy to monitor activity and streamline engagement across platforms.
- Template and folder organization: Have your agent create new template folders to organize message templates for efficient, consistent communication with customers.
- Custom attribute retrieval: Let your agent pull all custom contact attributes, enabling dynamic personalization and tailored messaging workflows.
- Webhook and file management: Direct your agent to delete obsolete webhooks or retrieve file metadata, keeping your integrations clean and your resources easily accessible.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `SUPERCHAT_CREATE_CONTACT` | Create Contact | Create a new contact in Superchat with phone or email handles. Use this tool to register contact details before sending messages. You must provide at least one handle (phone or email). Optional fields include first name, last name, gender, and custom attributes (if predefined in your account settings). |
| `SUPERCHAT_CREATE_TEMPLATE_FOLDER` | Create Template Folder | Create a new template folder in SuperChat for organizing message templates. Template folders help organize WhatsApp and other messaging templates into logical groups (e.g., Marketing, Sales, Customer Support). Use this action before creating templates when you want to keep them organized. |
| `SUPERCHAT_DELETE_WEBHOOK` | Delete Webhook | Tool to delete a specific webhook by its ID. Use when you need to remove an obsolete or unwanted webhook subscription. First use SUPERCHAT_LIST_WEBHOOKS to retrieve the webhook ID, then use this action to delete it. Example: Delete webhook wh_UPYSN0Etofjl7lhhQ9yhL. |
| `SUPERCHAT_GET_CONTACT` | Get Contact | Retrieve a specific contact's details by ID. Returns the contact's name, handles (phone, email, social), custom attributes, and timestamps. Use this to look up contact information before sending messages or updating contact details. Example: "Get contact details for co_abc123" or "Fetch info for contact co_xyz789". |
| `SUPERCHAT_GET_FILE` | Get File | Retrieve metadata for a specific file by its ID. Returns file details including the file name, MIME type, API resource URL, and a temporary download link with expiration. Use this to get information about uploaded files before downloading or processing them. |
| `SUPERCHAT_GET_USER` | Get User | Retrieve details of a specific user in the Superchat workspace by their user ID. Use this tool when you need to fetch profile information for a known user. Note: You can obtain user IDs by first calling the List Users action. Example user_id format: 'us_abc123xyz' |
| `SUPERCHAT_LIST_CHANNELS` | List Channels | Lists all communication channels in your Superchat workspace. Channels represent different messaging mediums (WhatsApp, email, SMS, Telegram, Instagram, Facebook) through which conversations occur. Results are sorted by creation date (newest first) and can be paginated using 'limit', 'after', or 'before' parameters. |
| `SUPERCHAT_LIST_CONTACTS` | List Contacts | List all contacts in the Superchat workspace with cursor-based pagination. Use this tool to browse contacts, find contact IDs, or export contact data. Results are sorted by creation date (newest first). |
| `SUPERCHAT_LIST_CONVERSATIONS` | List Conversations | Retrieves a paginated list of all conversations in your Superchat account. Each conversation includes channel info, status (open/snoozed/done), assigned users, contacts, labels, and inbox details. Use this to browse conversations, find specific ones by status or channel, or get conversation IDs for further operations. Supports cursor-based pagination to handle large result sets. |
| `SUPERCHAT_LIST_CUSTOM_ATTRIBUTES` | List Custom Attributes | List all custom attributes defined for contacts in your Superchat account. Custom attributes are user-defined fields that extend contact data beyond standard fields like name and email. Use this action to discover available custom attributes before reading or updating contact information. Supports cursor-based pagination for accounts with many custom attributes. Common use cases: - Discover available custom fields before updating contacts - Retrieve custom attribute types (string, number, date, select, etc.) - Get custom attribute IDs for use in other API calls |

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Codex?

Yes, you can. Codex 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 Superchat tools.

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

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