This guide walks you through connecting VideoDB to AutoGen using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working VideoDB agent that can create collections, upload media, search your videos, ask about collections, and rename media through natural language commands. This guide will help you understand how to give your AutoGen agent real control over a VideoDB account through Composio's VideoDB MCP server. Before we dive in, let's take a quick look at the key ideas and tools involved.
VideoDB is a video infrastructure platform for storing, searching, editing, and generating video, audio, and image content. Use it to build rich media apps with fast search, AI understanding, and programmable content workflows.

Before we dive in, let's take a quick look at the key ideas and tools involved.
McpWorkbench and StreamableHttpServerParamsAutogen is a framework for building multi-agent conversational AI systems from Microsoft. It enables you to create agents that can collaborate, use tools, and maintain complex workflows.
Key features include:
The VideoDB MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your VideoDB account. It provides structured and secure access to your media collections, videos, audio files, and images, so your agent can organize collections, ingest media, find content, answer grounded questions, and manage media 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:

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.
