TL;DR

Here's what you'll learn:

Get and set up your OpenAI and Composio API keys
Install the necessary dependencies
Initialize Composio and create a Tool Router session for Bugsnag
Configure an AI agent that can use Bugsnag as a tool
Run a live chat session where you can ask the agent to perform Bugsnag operations

What is OpenAI Agents SDK?

The OpenAI Agents SDK is a lightweight framework for building AI agents that can use tools and maintain conversation state. It provides a simple interface for creating agents with hosted MCP tool support.

Key features include:

Hosted MCP Tools: Connect to external services through hosted MCP endpoints
SQLite Sessions: Persist conversation history across interactions
Simple API: Clean interface with Agent, Runner, and tool configuration
Streaming Support: Real-time response streaming for interactive applications

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

The Bugsnag MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Bugsnag account. It provides structured and secure access to your error monitoring environment, so your agent can perform actions like managing errors, configuring integrations, inviting collaborators, and customizing project event fields on your behalf.

Bulk error management and updates: Let your agent update or clear multiple errors across your projects to streamline incident response and maintenance.
Integration configuration and cleanup: Have your agent set up new third-party integrations or remove existing ones, ensuring your Bugsnag projects are always connected to the right tools.
User and collaborator management: Easily invite new collaborators to your organization or remove access for old members, keeping your team roster up to date.
Custom event field creation and deletion: Direct your agent to add or remove custom event fields for advanced filtering and analytics within your projects.
Project-level administration and cleanup: Instruct your agent to perform large-scale actions such as deleting all errors or even entire projects, giving you powerful administrative control when needed.

What is the Composio tool router, and how does it fit here?

What is Composio SDK?

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.

How the Composio SDK works

The Composio SDK follows a three-phase workflow:

Discovery: Searches for tools matching your task and returns relevant toolkits with their details.
Authentication: Checks for active connections. If missing, creates an auth config and returns a connection URL via Auth Link.
Execution: Executes the action using the authenticated connection.

Step-by-step Guide

Step by step09 STEPS

Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:

Composio API Key and OpenAI API Key
Primary know-how of OpenAI Agents SDK
A live Bugsnag project
Some knowledge of Python or Typescript

Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key

Go to the OpenAI dashboard and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider.
Keep the API key safe.

Composio API Key

Log in to the Composio dashboard.
Go to Settings and copy your API key.

Install dependencies

npm install @composio/openai-agents @openai/agents dotenv

Install the Composio SDK and the OpenAI Agents SDK.

Set up environment variables

bash

OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...your-api-key
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-api-key
USER_ID=composio_user@gmail.com

Create a .env file and add your OpenAI and Composio API keys.

Import dependencies

import 'dotenv/config';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIAgentsProvider } from '@composio/openai-agents';
import { Agent, hostedMcpTool, run, OpenAIConversationsSession } from '@openai/agents';
import * as readline from 'readline';

What's happening:

You're importing all necessary libraries.
The Composio and OpenAIAgentsProvider classes are imported to connect your OpenAI agent to Composio tools like Bugsnag.

Set up the Composio instance

dotenv.config();

const composioApiKey = process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY;
const userId = process.env.USER_ID;

if (!composioApiKey) {
  throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key');
}
if (!userId) {
  throw new Error('USER_ID is not set');
}

// Initialize Composio
const composio = new Composio({
  apiKey: composioApiKey,
  provider: new OpenAIAgentsProvider(),
});

What's happening:

dotenv.config() loads your .env file so COMPOSIO_API_KEY and USER_ID are available as environment variables.
Creating a Composio instance using the API Key and OpenAIAgentsProvider class.

Create a Tool Router session

// Create Tool Router session for Bugsnag
const session = await composio.create(userId as string, {
  toolkits: ['bugsnag'],
});
const mcpUrl = session.mcp.url;

What is happening:

You give the Tool Router the user id and the toolkits you want available. Here, it is only bugsnag.
The router checks the user's Bugsnag connection and prepares the MCP endpoint.
The returned session.mcp.url is the MCP URL that your agent will use to access Bugsnag.
This approach keeps things lightweight and lets the agent request Bugsnag tools only when needed during the conversation.

Configure the agent

// Configure agent with MCP tool
const agent = new Agent({
  name: 'Assistant',
  model: 'gpt-5',
  instructions:
    'You are a helpful assistant that can access Bugsnag. Help users perform Bugsnag operations through natural language.',
  tools: [
    hostedMcpTool({
      serverLabel: 'tool_router',
      serverUrl: mcpUrl,
      headers: { 'x-api-key': composioApiKey },
      requireApproval: 'never',
    }),
  ],
});

What's happening:

We're creating an Agent instance with a name, model (gpt-5), and clear instructions about its purpose.
The agent's instructions tell it that it can access Bugsnag and help with queries, inserts, updates, authentication, and fetching database information.
The tools array includes a hostedMcpTool that connects to the MCP server URL we created earlier.
The headers object includes the Composio API key for secure authentication with the MCP server.
requireApproval: 'never' means the agent can execute Bugsnag operations without asking for permission each time, making interactions smoother.

Start chat loop and handle conversation

// Keep conversation state across turns
const conversationSession = new OpenAIConversationsSession();

// Simple CLI
const rl = readline.createInterface({
  input: process.stdin,
  output: process.stdout,
  prompt: 'You: ',
});

console.log('\nComposio Tool Router session created.');
console.log('\nChat started. Type your requests below.');
console.log("Commands: 'exit', 'quit', or 'q' to end\n");

try {
  const first = await run(agent, 'What can you help me with?', { session: conversationSession });
  console.log(`Assistant: ${first.finalOutput}\n`);
} catch (e) {
  console.error('Error:', e instanceof Error ? e.message : e, '\n');
}

rl.prompt();

rl.on('line', async (userInput) => {
  const text = userInput.trim();

  if (['exit', 'quit', 'q'].includes(text.toLowerCase())) {
    console.log('Goodbye!');
    rl.close();
    process.exit(0);
  }

  if (!text) {
    rl.prompt();
    return;
  }

  try {
    const result = await run(agent, text, { session: conversationSession });
    console.log(`\nAssistant: ${result.finalOutput}\n`);
  } catch (e) {
    console.error('Error:', e instanceof Error ? e.message : e, '\n');
  }

  rl.prompt();
});

rl.on('close', () => {
  console.log('\n👋 Session ended.');
  process.exit(0);
});

What's happening:

The program prints a session URL that you visit to authorize Bugsnag.
After authorization, the chat begins.
Each message you type is processed by the agent using run().
The responses are printed to the console.
Typing exit, quit, or q cleanly ends the chat.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

Yes, you can. OpenAI Agents SDK 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 Bugsnag tools.

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