Overview

Connect Apps

Connect Claude to 1000+ apps. Actually send emails, create issues, post messages - not just generate text about it.

Quick Start

Step 1: Install the Plugin

/plugin install composio-toolrouter

/composio-toolrouter:setup

This will:

  • Ask for your free API key (get one at platform.composio.dev)
  • Configure Claude’s connection to 1000+ apps
  • Take about 60 seconds

Step 3: Try It!

After setup, restart Claude Code and try:

Send me a test email at YOUR_EMAIL@example.com

If it works, you’re connected!

What You Can Do

Ask Claude to…What happens
“Send email to sarah@acme.com about the launch”Actually sends the email
“Create GitHub issue: fix login bug”Creates the issue
“Post to Slack #general: deploy complete”Posts the message
“Add meeting notes to Notion”Adds to Notion

Supported Apps

How It Works

  1. You ask Claude to do something
  2. Composio Tool Router finds the right tool
  3. First time? You’ll authorize via OAuth (one-time)
  4. Action executes and returns result

Troubleshooting

  • “Plugin not found” → Make sure you ran /plugin install composio-toolrouter
  • “Need to authorize” → Click the OAuth link Claude provides, then say “done”
  • Action failed → Check you have permissions in the target app
