AGENTS.md
This file provides guidance to AI coding agents (Codex, Claude Code, etc.) when working with code in this repository.
Overview
This is the Composio SDK v3 repository containing both TypeScript and Python SDKs. The main development focus is on the TypeScript SDK located in /ts/ directory. The project uses a monorepo structure with multiple packages and examples.
Notes
- For documentation tasks, refer to
docs/CLAUDE.md - Vendor submodules in
ts/vendor/are read-only reference only — do not modify them
Common Development Commands
Build and Development
pnpm build # Build all packages
pnpm build:packages # Build only TypeScript packages

Core Packages
@composio/core — Main SDK functionality:
src/composio.ts— Main Composio classsrc/models/— Core models (Tools, Toolkits, ConnectedAccounts, etc.)src/provider/— Base provider implementationssrc/services/— Internal services (telemetry, pusher)src/types/— TypeScript type definitionssrc/utils/— Utility functions and helpers
Provider Packages — AI integrations:
@composio/openai,@composio/anthropic,@composio/google@composio/langchain,@composio/vercel,@composio/mastra
Key Concepts
- Tools — Individual functions (e.g., GITHUB_CREATE_REPO, GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL)
- Toolkits — Collections of related tools grouped by service (github, gmail, slack)
- Connected Accounts — User authentication/authorization for external services
- Auth Configs — Configuration for different authentication methods
- Custom Tools — User-defined tools with custom logic
- Providers — Integrations with AI frameworks (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
- Modifiers — Middleware to transform tool inputs/outputs
Development Workflow
Testing
- Unit tests use Vitest — run with
pnpm test - Tests are in
test/directories within each package - Mock implementations in
test/utils/mocks/
Code Quality
- ESLint — config in
eslint.config.mjs - Prettier — for code formatting
- TypeScript — strict mode enabled
- Husky — pre-commit hooks for quality checks
TypeScript E2E Tests
pnpm test:e2e # All (Node.js + Deno + Cloudflare)
pnpm test:e2e:node # Node.js CJS/ESM compatibility (Docker)
pnpm test:e2e:deno # Deno npm: specifier compatibility (Docker)
pnpm test:e2e:cloudflare # Cloudflare Workers
Environment Variables
COMPOSIO_API_KEY # Required: Your Composio API key
COMPOSIO_BASE_URL # Optional: Custom API base URL
COMPOSIO_LOG_LEVEL # Optional: silent, error, warn, info, debug
COMPOSIO_DISABLE_TELEMETRY # Optional: Set to "true" to disable telemetry

Common Patterns
Tool Execution
const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: '<YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY>' });
const result = await composio.tools.execute('TOOL_NAME', {
userId: 'user-id',
arguments: { /* tool args */ }
});
Provider Integration
import { OpenAIProvider } from '@composio/openai';
const provider = new OpenAIProvider({ apiKey: '<YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY>' });
const tools = await composio.tools.get('user-id', { toolkits: ['github'] });
const wrappedTools = provider.wrapTools(tools);
Custom Tool Creation
import { z } from 'zod';
const customTool = await composio.tools.createCustomTool({
name: 'My Tool',
description: 'Tool description',
slug: 'MY_TOOL',
inputParams: z.object({
param: z.string().describe('Parameter description')
}),
execute: async (input) => {
return {
data: { result: input.param },
error: null,
successful: true
};
}
});
Python SDK Development
Setup
cd python
make env # Create virtual env with all dependencies
source .venv/bin/activate
Commands
make fmt # Format code (ruff)
make chk # Check linting and type issues
make tst # Run tests
make snt # Run sanity tests
make build # Build packages
Code Quality
- Formatter: Ruff (Black-compatible, 88 char line length)
- Linter: Ruff
- Type Checker: mypy with strict optional typing
- Test Framework: pytest with markers (core, openai, langchain, agno)
- Python Version: >=3.10, <4
Maintenance Tasks
When Updating GitHub Actions
Update the "Prerequisites" section in ts/docs/internal/release.md with current tool versions:
- Node.js:
cat .nvmrc - Bun:
cat .bun-version - pnpm:
cat package.json | jq -r .packageManager | cut -d'@' -f2
This monorepo uses pnpm workspaces and Turbo for efficient builds and development.
