composio direct mode selected but no api key is configured (

Error message

composio direct mode selected but no api key is configured (set via composio.set_api_key RPC or config.composio.api_key)

What it means

Direct mode was selected in config.composio.mode but neither the keychain nor config.toml holds a non-empty Composio API key, so no direct client can be constructed. The keychain is checked first; config.toml is the power-user fallback.

Solutions

1. Set the key via the composio.set_api_key RPC (stores it in the encrypted keychain)
2. Or set config.composio.api_key in config.toml
3. Or switch mode back to "backend" and sign in instead
