How to integrate Whautomate MCP with Atomic Agent

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 Whautomate.

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 Whautomate account. See the Atomic Agent documentation for installation instructions.

How Atomic Agent connects to Whautomate

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 Whautomate to Atomic Agent

1. Sign up or sign in to the Composio dashboard. Copy your API key.
2. 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.
3. Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Whautomate. It searches Composio for the right tool.
4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Whautomate 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.

The Whautomate MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Whautomate account. It provides structured and secure access to customer engagement resources, so your agent can manage contacts, schedule broadcasts, retrieve chat histories, and organize messaging segments automatically on your behalf.

• Contact management and automation: Quickly add new contacts or retrieve lists of WhatsApp contacts to streamline customer engagement and outreach.
• Broadcast scheduling and tracking: Instruct your agent to fetch, inspect, or get details on message broadcasts—including status tracking and filtering by date or type.
• Chat history and message retrieval: Have your agent pull detailed chat messages for individual contacts, so you can review conversations, follow up intelligently, or analyze engagement history.
• Segment and service organization: Effortlessly manage audience segments and services—fetching, deleting, or organizing them to keep your communication campaigns targeted and up-to-date.
• Webhook and integration oversight: Retrieve all registered webhooks to monitor and audit external integrations, ensuring your automations stay connected and reliable.

Use Whautomate from Atomic Agent

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