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 Pdfless 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 Pdfless 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.

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 Pdfless MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Pdfless MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Pdfless account. It provides structured and secure access to your Pdfless document templates and PDF generation workflows, so your agent can perform actions like discovering templates, previewing options, and preparing high-quality documents on your behalf.

  • Template discovery and listing: Instantly fetch and review all available HTML/CSS document templates in your Pdfless account for rapid document generation.
  • Template selection for document creation: Let your agent intelligently choose the best template for your data or use case, streamlining the PDF creation process.
  • Automated workflow integration: Seamlessly integrate Pdfless templates into broader automation flows, letting your agent connect data sources and trigger document creation.
  • Consistent document generation: Ensure every PDF generated by your agent follows your chosen branding and formatting standards by leveraging reusable templates.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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