How to integrate Cloudsmith MCP with OpenClaw

OpenClaw is the fastest growing agent harness out there, which can work 24/7 to automate almost any kind of tasks. However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Cloudsmith with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Cloudsmith via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

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.

How to install Cloudsmith with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

Copy the setup prompt from the OpenClaw dashboard
  • Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
  • Authenticate Cloudsmith from the dashboard
  • 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

2. Copy the API Key from dashboard.composio.dev

3. Setup OpenClaw Config

bash
openclaw config set plugins.entries.composio.config.consumerKey "ck_your_key_here"

4. Restart OpenClaw

bash
openclaw gateway restart

5. Go to your chat interface and start asking questions.

6. When prompted, authenticate the app and you're all set.

How It Works

The plugin connects to Composio's MCP server at https://connect.composio.dev/mcp and registers all available tools directly into the OpenClaw agent. Tools are called by name — no extra search or execute steps needed.

If a tool returns an auth error, the agent will prompt you to connect that toolkit at dashboard.composio.dev.

Configuration

  "plugins": {
    "entries": {

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

The Cloudsmith MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Cloudsmith account. It provides structured and secure access to your organizations, repositories, packages, vulnerabilities, audit history, quotas, and rate limits, so your agent can discover organizations, inspect repositories, search packages, review security findings, and monitor account activity on your behalf.

  • Organization and account discovery: Have your agent confirm the connected Cloudsmith user and list the organizations available to that account.
  • Repository search and inspection: Let the agent find repositories within an organization and review their configuration, visibility, usage, and supported capabilities.
  • Package search and analysis: Direct your agent to search packages by name, version, format, architecture, distribution, filename, or status, then inspect package metadata, checksums, licensing, and security state.
  • Vulnerability review: Instruct your agent to list package vulnerability scan summaries for a repository so your team can identify security concerns.
  • Usage and activity monitoring: Have your agent check storage and bandwidth quotas, review current request limits, and search audit events by action, actor, or time.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Cloudsmith with OpenClaw using Composio plugin. Now interact with Cloudsmith directly from your terminal, Web UI, or any messenger app using natural language commands.

Key benefits of this setup:

  • Seamless integration across TUI, Web UIs, and Messenger apps like Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, etc.
  • Natural language commands for Cloudsmith operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 1000+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • Programmatic tool calling for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

  • Try asking OpenClaw to perform various Cloudsmith operations
  • Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits like Calendar, Slack, Notion, etc.
  • Build complex automation scripts that leverage OpenClaw's 24/7 running capabilities
TOOLS

Supported Tools

Every Cloudsmith action and event your agent gets out of the box.

Get Current User

Return the identity authenticated by the connected Cloudsmith API key.

Get Package

Get metadata, status, checksums, licensing, and security state for one package in a Cloudsmith repository.

Get Quota

Return current storage and bandwidth usage and allowances for a Cloudsmith namespace without inferring a billing plan name.

Get Rate Limits

Return Cloudsmith's current per-resource request limits, remaining counts, intervals, and throttling state for the authenticated principal.

Get Repository

Get configuration, visibility, usage, and capability details for one Cloudsmith repository without returning repository signing keys or certificates.

List Organizations

List Cloudsmith organizations associated with the authenticated principal so an agent can discover namespace slugs for later calls.

List Repository Vulnerabilities

List vulnerability scan summaries for packages in a Cloudsmith repository.

Search Audit Log

Search paginated audit events for a Cloudsmith namespace by event, actor, or timestamp text.

Search Packages

Search packages in a Cloudsmith repository by name, filename, version, distribution, architecture, format, or status.

Search Repositories

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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 Cloudsmith tools.

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