# `MergeAgentHandlerTool`
|
||||
|
||||
The `MergeAgentHandlerTool` enables CrewAI agents to securely access third-party integrations through [Merge's Agent Handler](https://www.merge.dev/products/merge-agent-handler) platform. Agent Handler provides pre-built, secure connectors to popular tools like Linear, GitHub, Slack, Notion, and hundreds more—all with built-in authentication, permissions, and monitoring.
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
uv pip install 'crewai[tools]'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
- Merge Agent Handler account with a configured Tool Pack
|
||||
- Agent Handler API key
|
||||
- At least one registered user linked to your Tool Pack
|
||||
- Third-party integrations configured in your Tool Pack
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting Started with Agent Handler
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Sign up** for a Merge Agent Handler account at [ah.merge.dev/signup](https://ah.merge.dev/signup)
|
||||
2. **Create a Tool Pack** and configure the integrations you need
|
||||
3. **Register users** who will authenticate with the third-party services
|
||||
4. **Get your API key** from the Agent Handler dashboard
|
||||
5. **Set environment variable**: `export AGENT_HANDLER_API_KEY='your-key-here'`
|
||||
6. **Start building** with the MergeAgentHandlerTool in CrewAI
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- Tool Pack IDs and Registered User IDs can be found in your Agent Handler dashboard or created via API
|
||||
- The tool uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for communication with Agent Handler
|
||||
- Session IDs are automatically generated but can be customized for context persistence
|
||||
- All tool calls are logged and auditable through the Agent Handler platform
|
||||
- Tool parameters are dynamically discovered from the Agent Handler API and validated automatically
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
### Single Tool Usage
|
||||
|
||||
Here's how to use a specific tool from your Tool Pack:
|
||||
|
||||
```python {2, 4-9}
|
||||
from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
|
||||
from crewai_tools import MergeAgentHandlerTool
|
||||
|
||||
# Create a tool for Linear issue creation
|
||||
linear_create_tool = MergeAgentHandlerTool.from_tool_name(
|
||||
tool_name="linear__create_issue",
|
||||
tool_pack_id="134e0111-0f67-44f6-98f0-597000290bb3",
|
||||
registered_user_id="91b2b905-e866-40c8-8be2-efe53827a0aa"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# Create a CrewAI agent that uses the tool
|
||||
project_manager = Agent(
|
||||
role='Project Manager',
|
||||
goal='Manage project tasks and issues efficiently',
|
||||
backstory='I am an expert at tracking project work and creating actionable tasks.',
|
||||
tools=[linear_create_tool],
|
||||
verbose=True
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# Create a task for the agent
|
||||
create_issue_task = Task(
|
||||
description="Create a new high-priority issue in Linear titled 'Implement user authentication' with a detailed description of the requirements.",
|
||||
agent=project_manager,
|
||||
expected_output="Confirmation that the issue was created with its ID"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# Create a crew with the agent
|
||||
crew = Crew(
|
||||
agents=[project_manager],
|
||||
tasks=[create_issue_task],
|
||||
verbose=True
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# Run the crew
|
||||
result = crew.kickoff()
|
||||
print(result)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Loading Multiple Tools from a Tool Pack
|
||||
|
||||
You can load all available tools from your Tool Pack at once:
|
||||
|
||||
```python {2, 4-8}
|
||||
from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
|
||||
from crewai_tools import MergeAgentHandlerTool
|
||||
|
||||
# Load all tools from the Tool Pack
|
||||
tools = MergeAgentHandlerTool.from_tool_pack(
|
||||
tool_pack_id="134e0111-0f67-44f6-98f0-597000290bb3",
|
||||
registered_user_id="91b2b905-e866-40c8-8be2-efe53827a0aa"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# Create an agent with access to all tools
|
||||
automation_expert = Agent(
|
||||
role='Automation Expert',
|
||||
goal='Automate workflows across multiple platforms',
|
||||
backstory='I can work with any tool in the toolbox to get things done.',
|
||||
tools=tools,
|
||||
verbose=True
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
automation_task = Task(
|
||||
description="Check for any high-priority issues in Linear and post a summary to Slack.",
|
||||
agent=automation_expert
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
crew = Crew(
|
||||
agents=[automation_expert],
|
||||
tasks=[automation_task],
|
||||
verbose=True
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
result = crew.kickoff()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Loading Specific Tools Only
|
||||
|
||||
Load only the tools you need:
|
||||
|
||||
```python {2, 4-10}
|
||||
from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

||||
|
||||
# Load specific tools from the Tool Pack
|
||||
selected_tools = MergeAgentHandlerTool.from_tool_pack(

|
||||
tools=selected_tools,
|
||||
verbose=True
|
||||
)
|
||||
|

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
|
||||
from crewai_tools import MergeAgentHandlerTool

# Create tools with the same session ID to maintain context
|

session_id = "project-sprint-planning-2024"
|
||||
|
||||
create_tool = MergeAgentHandlerTool(
|
||||
name="linear_create_issue",
|
||||
description="Creates a new issue in Linear",
|
||||
tool_name="linear__create_issue",
|
||||

goal='Plan and organize sprint tasks',
|
||||
backstory='I help teams plan effective sprints with well-defined tasks.',
|

|
||||
## Use Cases
|
||||
|
||||
### Unified Integration Access
|
||||
- Access hundreds of third-party tools through a single unified API without managing multiple SDKs
|
||||
- Enable agents to work with Linear, GitHub, Slack, Notion, Jira, Asana, and more from one integration point
|
||||
- Reduce integration complexity by letting Agent Handler manage authentication and API versioning
|
||||
|
||||
### Secure Enterprise Workflows
|
||||
- Leverage built-in authentication and permission management for all third-party integrations
|
||||
- Maintain enterprise security standards with centralized access control and audit logging
|
||||
- Enable agents to access company tools without exposing API keys or credentials in code
|
||||
|
||||
### Cross-Platform Automation
|
||||
- Build workflows that span multiple platforms (e.g., create GitHub issues from Linear tasks, sync Notion pages to Slack)
|
||||
- Enable seamless data flow between different tools in your tech stack
|
||||
- Create intelligent automation that understands context across different platforms
|
||||
|
||||
### Dynamic Tool Discovery
|
||||
- Load all available tools at runtime without hardcoding integration logic
|
||||
- Enable agents to discover and use new tools as they're added to your Tool Pack
|
||||
- Build flexible agents that can adapt to changing tool availability
|
||||
|
||||
### User-Specific Tool Access
|
||||
- Different users can have different tool permissions and access levels
|
||||
- Enable multi-tenant workflows where agents act on behalf of specific users
|
||||
- Maintain proper attribution and permissions for all tool actions
|
||||
|
||||
## Available Integrations

|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling
|
||||
|
||||
The tool provides comprehensive error handling:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Authentication Errors**: Invalid or missing API keys
|
||||
- **Permission Errors**: User lacks permission for the requested action
|
||||
- **API Errors**: Issues communicating with Agent Handler or third-party services
|
||||
- **Validation Errors**: Invalid parameters passed to tool methods
|
||||
|
||||
All errors are wrapped in `MergeAgentHandlerToolError` for consistent error handling.
