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 Crustdata 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 Crustdata 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.

It provides structured and secure access to real-time company and people intelligence, so your agent can perform actions like lead enrichment, market research, investor portfolio analysis, and workforce trend tracking on your behalf.

  • Comprehensive person and company enrichment: Instantly enrich leads or companies with up-to-date details for customer profiling, data verification, or targeted outreach.
  • Advanced decision maker filtering: Find and analyze decision makers across organizations using complex filters, titles, and segmentation for your sales or marketing efforts.
  • Investor portfolio and funding milestone analysis: Retrieve in-depth investor portfolio data, analyze funding milestones, and generate reports for investment research or deal sourcing.
  • Workforce and job market trend insights: Fetch headcount and job listing timeseries data to track organizational growth, hiring activity, or competitive shifts in specific industries.
  • Social and web activity monitoring: Collect and analyze LinkedIn posts and web traffic data for any company to assess engagement, sentiment, and digital footprint for market intelligence and outreach strategies.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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