This guide walks you through connecting Hive to Mastra AI using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Hive agent that can create actions, search your tasks, list projects, manage labels, and delete actions through natural language commands. This guide will help you understand how to give your Mastra AI agent real control over a Hive account through Composio's Hive MCP server. Before we dive in, let's take a quick look at the key ideas and tools involved.
Hive is a project management and team collaboration platform for actions, projects, workflows, resources, and workspace metadata. It helps teams plan work, track progress, and keep collaboration moving in one shared workspace.

This guide will help you understand how to give your Mastra AI agent real control over a Hive account through Composio's Hive MCP server.
Before we dive in, let's take a quick look at the key ideas and tools involved.
Mastra AI is a TypeScript framework for building AI agents with tool support. It provides a clean API for creating agents that can use external services through MCP.
Key features include:
The Hive MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Hive account. It provides structured and secure access to your workspaces, projects, actions, and labels, so your agent can create tasks, find work, review projects, manage labels, and remove actions on your behalf.
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.
The Composio SDK follows a three-phase workflow:
npm install @composio/core @mastra/core @mastra/mcp @ai-sdk/openai dotenvInstall the required packages.
What's happening:
@composio/core is the Composio SDK for creating MCP sessions@mastra/core provides the Agent class@mastra/mcp is Mastra's MCP client@ai-sdk/openai is the model wrapper for OpenAIdotenv loads environment variables from .envCOMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here
COMPOSIO_USER_ID=your_user_id_here
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_hereCreate a .env file in your project root.

Karan skipped his own birthday party to fix our critical issue. It was 10pm and he diverted his Waymo to help us instead. This really sets the bar — it shows the commitment you need when users rely on your software.
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.
With hands-on help from their founder, we integrated Gmail and Google Drive in just 30 minutes. This level of personal support and commitment is exactly what startups should strive for.
