How to integrate Giphy 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 Giphy with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Giphy 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 Giphy with OpenClaw
Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt
- Go to dashboard.composio.dev
- Copy the setup prompt
- Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
- Authenticate Giphy 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-plugin2. 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 restart5. 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
bash
{
"plugins": {
"entries": {
"composio": {
"enabled": true,
"config": {
"consumerKey": "ck_your_key_here"
}
}
}
}
}| Option | Description | Default |

mcpUrl | MCP server URL (advanced) | https://connect.composio.dev/mcp |
What is the Giphy MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The Giphy MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Giphy account. It provides structured and secure access to the world’s largest GIF and sticker library, so your agent can search for GIFs, fetch trending categories, retrieve GIF metadata, and even track analytics on user interactions automatically.
- GIF and sticker search and retrieval: Instantly have your agent fetch GIFs and stickers by ID, category, or emoji for any topic or mood you need.
- Browse trending categories and curated content: Let your agent pull the latest GIF categories and browse curated collections to suggest the perfect GIF for any occasion.
- Access detailed GIF and sticker metadata: Retrieve comprehensive information about specific GIFs, stickers, or even groups of items by their unique IDs.
- Emoji and sticker variation discovery: Explore emoji GIFs and their creative variations, making it easy to add fun reactions or flair to your app or chat.
- User interaction analytics logging: Track and register when users view, click, or share GIFs, enabling smarter personalization and reporting within your workflows.
Conclusion
You've successfully integrated Giphy with OpenClaw using Composio plugin. Now interact with Giphy 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 Giphy operations

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
With a standalone Giphy MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Giphy tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Giphy 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 Giphy tools.
Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Giphy 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 Giphy data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.

A lot of students tell us that the moment their connected tools start talking to each other inside Opennote feels almost magical. The agent just knows them, and it's immensely helped keep new users on the platform.

We chose Composio over Pipedream because it delivered depth where it mattered — niche tools and tricky edge cases other platforms simply ignored. That gave us confidence to scale without compromising.

As a solo builder, shipping fast is life or death. The only way I can outcompete incumbents is by outmanoeuvring them. Getting bogged down managing agent auth would have been a death sentence.

Before Composio, adding tool integrations was slow and resource-intensive. Each one could take weeks of engineering time, and maintaining them meant constantly keeping up with API changes.
