SETUP GUIDE

Connect Todoist MCP Tool with your Agent

1

Install Composio

typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/mcp @ai-sdk/openai
Install the Composio SDK and your agent framework
2

Create a session with MCP enabled

typescript
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";

const composio = new Composio();
const { mcp } = await composio.create("your-user-id", {
  toolkits: ["todoist_mcp"],
  mcp: true,
});
Create a session scoped to Todoist MCP and read its MCP URL and headers
3

Connect your agent to the MCP server

typescript
import { createMCPClient } from "@ai-sdk/mcp";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from "ai";

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: { type: "http", url: mcp.url, headers: mcp.headers },
});

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai("gpt-5.6-sol"),
  tools: await client.tools(),
  prompt: "Create project Q3 roadmap and tasks",
  stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
});

console.log(text);
await client.close();
Pass the session's MCP URL and headers to your agent and run a Todoist MCP request
SETUP GUIDE

Connect Todoist MCP API Tool with your Agent

1

Install Composio

typescript
npm install @composio/core @composio/openai openai
Install the Composio SDK, the OpenAI provider, and the OpenAI SDK

const client = new OpenAI();

const session = await composio.create("your-user-id", { toolkits: ["todoist_mcp"] });
const tools = await session.tools();
Initialize Composio with the OpenAI Responses provider and create a session scoped to Todoist MCP
3

Run Todoist MCP tools with your agent

typescript
let response = await client.responses.create({
  model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
  tools,

});

while (response.output.some((o) => o.type === "function_call")) {
  const outputs = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(session, response.output);
  response = await client.responses.create({
    model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
    tools,
    previous_response_id: response.id,

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Yes, Todoist MCP requires you to configure your own Dcr Oauth credentials. Once set up, Composio handles secure credential storage and management for you.

Yes! Composio's Tool Router enables agents to use multiple toolkits. Learn more.

Yes. Composio is SOC 2 Type II compliant and is built to keep your Todoist connection and credentials secure. OAuth tokens and API keys are encrypted, and sensitive customer data is protected at rest and in transit.

Composio also undergoes independent security testing and continuously monitors its systems for security threats. You can review the latest reports and policies in the Composio Trust Center.

Composio maintains and updates all toolkit integrations automatically, so your agents always work with the latest API versions.

When you connect a Todoist account through Composio, every action runs under that account, so anything the agent creates, sends, or changes shows up in Todoist as done by you. Keep an approval step in your prompt for actions with side effects, such as sending or deleting, and have the agent draft first.

Whatever the credentials you connect allow inside Todoist. If Todoist lets you scope a key to specific permissions, create a scoped one so the agent can only do what you intend. You can revoke the key inside Todoist at any time.

Yes. Composio supports multiple connected accounts for the same app, and that works in Claude, ChatGPT, or any other assistant you connect through Composio. Give each Todoist connection a name such as work or personal, and the assistant uses the one you mention in the request. Each account keeps its own credentials and nothing is merged.

Composio's free Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month with no credit card, which covers most personal Todoist use. Paid plans add higher limits and team features. Your Todoist plan and its API limits still apply as usual.

Built-in connectors usually give one AI access to a limited set of apps. Many people use Composio because it lets their AI connect to more apps than it normally supports, or connect to multiple accounts for the same app (e.g. connect Claude to multiple Todoist accounts).

With Composio, you connect Todoist once and then use it across different AI assistants without setting it up separately in each one. Connect your apps to Composio once, then connect Composio to whichever AI you use, whether that's Claude, ChatGPT, Hermes, or your own custom assistant.
