TL;DR

Here's what you'll learn:

Get and set up your OpenAI and Composio API keys
Connect your Arize AX project to Composio
Create a Tool Router MCP session for Arize AX
Initialize an MCP client and retrieve Arize AX tools
Build a LangChain agent that can interact with Arize AX
Set up an interactive chat interface for testing

What is LangChain?

LangChain is a framework for developing applications powered by language models. It provides tools and abstractions for building agents that can reason, use tools, and maintain conversation context.

Key features include:

Agent Framework: Build agents that can use tools and make decisions
MCP Integration: Connect to external services through Model Context Protocol adapters
Memory Management: Maintain conversation history across interactions
Multi-Provider Support: Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, and other LLM providers

What is the Arize AX MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Arize AX MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Arize AX account. It provides structured and secure access to your projects, datasets, prompts, experiments, traces, and spans, so your agent can inspect AI activity, manage evaluation data, maintain prompts, run experiments, and review results on your behalf.

Project and space discovery: Have your agent find accessible spaces and projects, then retrieve details about the AI applications you monitor.
Dataset management: Let the agent create and rename datasets, add or update examples, and review examples from current or named dataset versions.
Prompt versioning: Direct your agent to create prompts, publish new immutable versions, update prompt descriptions, and review current or previous versions.
Experiment tracking: Instruct your agent to create experiments, append runs, and inspect experiment outputs for evaluation and comparison.
Trace and span analysis: Have your agent review bounded sets of traces and spans within chosen time ranges and filters to investigate application behavior.

What is the Composio tool router, and how does it fit here?

What is Composio SDK?

Composio's Composio SDK helps agents find the right tools for a task at runtime. You can plug in multiple toolkits (like Gmail, HubSpot, and GitHub), and the agent will identify the relevant app and action to complete multi-step workflows. This can reduce token usage and improve the reliability of tool calls. Read more here: Getting started with Composio SDK

The tool router generates a secure MCP URL that your agents can access to perform actions.

How the Composio SDK works

The Composio SDK follows a three-phase workflow:

Discovery: Searches for tools matching your task and returns relevant toolkits with their details.
Authentication: Checks for active connections. If missing, creates an auth config and returns a connection URL via Auth Link.
Execution: Executes the action using the authenticated connection.

Step by step10 STEPS

Prerequisites

Before starting this tutorial, make sure you have:

Python 3.10 or higher installed on your system
A Composio account with an API key
An OpenAI API key
Basic familiarity with Python and async programming

Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key

Go to the OpenAI dashboard and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider.
Keep the API key safe.

Composio API Key

Log in to the Composio dashboard.
Navigate to your API settings and generate a new API key.
Store this key securely as you'll need it for authentication.

Install dependencies

npm install @composio/langchain @langchain/core @langchain/openai @langchain/mcp-adapters dotenv

Install the required packages for LangChain with MCP support.

What's happening:

@composio/langchain provides Composio integration for LangChain
@langchain/mcp-adapters enables MCP client connections
@langchain/core is the core agent framework
dotenv/config loads environment variables

Set up environment variables

bash

COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here
COMPOSIO_USER_ID=your_composio_user_id_here
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here

Create a .env file in your project root.

What's happening:

COMPOSIO_API_KEY authenticates your requests to Composio's API
COMPOSIO_USER_ID identifies the user for session management
OPENAI_API_KEY enables access to OpenAI's language models

Import dependencies

import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { LangchainProvider } from '@composio/langchain';
import { MultiServerMCPClient } from "@langchain/mcp-adapters";
import { createAgent } from "langchain";
import * as readline from 'readline';
import 'dotenv/config';

dotenv.config();

What's happening:

We're importing LangChain's MCP adapter and Composio SDK
The dotenv/config import loads environment variables from your .env file
This setup prepares the foundation for connecting LangChain with Arize AX functionality through MCP

Initialize Composio client

const composioApiKey = process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY;
const userId = process.env.COMPOSIO_USER_ID;

if (!composioApiKey) throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set');
if (!userId) throw new Error('COMPOSIO_USER_ID is not set');

async function main() {
    const composio = new Composio({
        apiKey: composioApiKey as string,
        provider: new LangchainProvider()
    });

What's happening:

We're loading the COMPOSIO_API_KEY from environment variables and validating it exists
Creating a Composio instance that will manage our connection to Arize AX tools
Validating that COMPOSIO_USER_ID is also set before proceeding

Create a Tool Router session

const session = await composio.create(
    userId as string,
    {
        toolkits: ['arize_ax']
    }
);

const url = session.mcp.url;

What's happening:

We're creating a Tool Router session that gives your agent access to Arize AX tools
The create method takes the user ID and specifies which toolkits should be available
The returned session.mcp.url is the MCP server URL that your agent will use
This approach allows the agent to dynamically load and use Arize AX tools as needed

Configure the agent with the MCP URL

const client = new MultiServerMCPClient({
    "arize_ax-agent": {
        transport: "http",
        url: url,
        headers: {
            "x-api-key": process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY
        }
    }
});

const tools = await client.getTools();

const agent = createAgent({ model: "gpt-5", tools });

What's happening:

We're creating a MultiServerMCPClient that connects to our Arize AX MCP server via HTTP
The client is configured with a name and the URL from our Tool Router session
getTools() retrieves all available Arize AX tools that the agent can use
We're creating a LangChain agent using the GPT-5 model

Set up interactive chat interface

let conversationHistory: any[] = [];

console.log("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end the conversation.\n");
console.log("Ask any Arize AX related question or task to the agent.\n");

const rl = readline.createInterface({
    input: process.stdin,
    output: process.stdout,
    prompt: 'You: '
});

rl.prompt();

rl.on('line', async (userInput: string) => {
    const trimmedInput = userInput.trim();

    if (['exit', 'quit', 'bye'].includes(trimmedInput.toLowerCase())) {
        console.log("\nGoodbye!");
        rl.close();
        process.exit(0);
    }

    if (!trimmedInput) {
        rl.prompt();
        return;
    }

    conversationHistory.push({ role: "user", content: trimmedInput });
    console.log("\nAgent is thinking...\n");

    const response = await agent.invoke({ messages: conversationHistory });
    conversationHistory = response.messages;

    const finalResponse = response.messages[response.messages.length - 1]?.content;
    console.log(`Agent: ${finalResponse}\n`);
        
        rl.prompt();
    });

    rl.on('close', () => {
        console.log('\n👋 Session ended.');
        process.exit(0);
    });

What's happening:

We initialize an empty conversationHistory list to maintain context across interactions
A readline interface is used to continuously accept user input from the command line
When a user types a message, it's added to the conversation history and sent to the agent
The agent processes the request using the invoke() method with the full conversation history
Users can type 'exit', 'quit', or 'bye' to end the chat session gracefully

Run the application

main().catch((err) => {
    console.error('Fatal error:', err);
    process.exit(1);
});

What's happening:

We call the main() function to start the application

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

Yes, you can. LangChain 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 Arize AX tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Arize AX 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.

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 Arize AX data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
