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 Smartlead 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 Smartlead 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.

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

The Smartlead MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Smartlead account. It provides structured and secure access to your campaigns, leads, inbox replies, sending accounts, deliverability tests, and prospecting tools, so your agent can manage campaigns, review performance, monitor replies, find prospects, and assess sender resources on your behalf.

  • Campaign creation and management: Have your agent create draft campaigns, review existing campaigns and their settings, or delete campaigns you no longer need.
  • Lead and performance monitoring: Let the agent list campaign leads, review email engagement statistics, remove unwanted leads, and resume paused leads.
  • Inbox and direct email actions: Instruct your agent to review lead replies across campaigns or send a single email from a connected Smartlead sending account.
  • Deliverability and account checks: Direct your agent to inspect sending account health, review spam and inbox placement tests, and organize tests with delivery folders.
  • Prospecting and sender research: Have your agent search prospect contacts, explore industries and saved searches, check prospect usage, compare sender vendors, and find available or purchased domains.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Smartlead MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Smartlead tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Smartlead 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 Smartlead tools.

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