SETUP GUIDE
Connect Semanticscholar MCP Tool with your Agent
1
Install Composio
typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcpInstall the Composio SDK and Claude Agent SDK
2
Create Tool Router Session
typescript
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: 'your-api-key' });
console.log("Creating Tool Router session...");
const { mcp } = await composio.create('your-user-id');
console.log(`Tool Router session created: ${mcp.url}`);Initialize the Composio client and create a Tool Router session
3
Connect to AI Agent
typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from 'ai';
const client = await createMCPClient({
transport: {
type: 'http',
url: mcp.url,
headers: { 'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key' }
}
});
const tools = await client.tools();
const { text } = await generateText({
model: openai('gpt-4o'),
tools,
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Find papers about graph neural networks published after 2022' }],
stopWhen: stepCountIs( 5 )
});
console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);Use the MCP server with your AI agent

Initialize Composio and Create Tool Router Session
typescript
import OpenAI from 'openai';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from '@composio/openai';
const composio = new Composio({
provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider(),
});
const openai = new OpenAI({});
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');Import and initialize Composio client, then create a Tool Router session
3
Execute Semanticscholar Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent
typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
model: 'gpt-4.1',
tools: tools,
input: [{
role: 'user',
content: 'Find the most cited papers in deep learning from 2022.'
}],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(
'your-user-id',
response.output
);
console.log(result);Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Semanticscholar actions with your Agent

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.
Abhi Arya
Co-founder, Opennote
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.
Ryan Yu
Founder, Extra Thursday
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.
