Overview

What it does

This skill connects Claude to external apps to send emails, create issues, post messages, and update data. Composio Tool Router selects a tool that matches your request, handles authentication, and returns the result of the action. The introduction covers connections to Gmail, Slack, GitHub, and Notion, as well as sequences of work that span multiple apps.

When it helps

Use it when you have decided what an email or post should say and want Claude to send it. It also helps combine information gathering with communication, such as checking GitHub issues, summarizing them, and sharing the summary on Slack.

Example requests

  • “Send an email through Gmail to the specified recipient using this subject and body.”
  • “Create a GitHub issue titled ‘Mobile timeout bug’ with the bug label.”
  • “Summarize this week’s issues labeled bug and post the summary to #bugs on Slack.”

Notes

Obtain a Composio API key and set COMPOSIO_API_KEY. Installation instructions cover packages for Python or TypeScript. Each app requires access authorization on first use. Available actions depend on the permissions granted in the connected app.

This overview was written by AI (OpenAI Codex) from the public SKILL.md. Check the original below for the exact behavior.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need Claude to:

  • Send that email instead of drafting it
  • Create that issue instead of describing it
  • Post that message instead of suggesting it
  • Update that database instead of explaining how

Examples

Send Email

Email sarah@acme.com - Subject: "Shipped!" Body: "v2.0 is live, let me know if issues"

Create GitHub Issue

Create issue in my-org/repo: "Mobile timeout bug" with label:bug

Post to Slack

Post to #engineering: "Deploy complete - v2.4.0 live"

Chain Actions

Find GitHub issues labeled "bug" from this week, summarize, post to #bugs on Slack

How It Works

Uses Composio Tool Router:

  1. You ask Claude to do something
  2. Tool Router finds the right tool (1000+ options)
  3. OAuth handled automatically
  4. Action executes and returns result

Code

from composio import Composio
from claude_agent_sdk.client import ClaudeSDKClient
from claude_agent_sdk.types import ClaudeAgentOptions
import os

composio = Composio(api_key=os.environ["COMPOSIO_API_KEY"])
session = composio.create(user_id="user_123")

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    system_prompt="You can take actions in external apps.",
    mcp_servers={
        "composio": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": session.mcp.url,
            "headers": {"x-api-key": os.environ["COMPOSIO_API_KEY"]},
        }
    },
)

async with ClaudeSDKClient(options) as client:
    await client.query("Send Slack message to #general: Hello!")

Auth Flow

First time using an app:

To send emails, I need Gmail access.
Authorize here: https://...
Say "connected" when done.

Connection persists after that.

Framework Support

FrameworkInstall
Claude Agent SDKpip install composio claude-agent-sdk
OpenAI Agentspip install composio openai-agents
Vercel AInpm install @composio/core @composio/vercel
LangChainpip install composio-langchain
Any MCP ClientUse session.mcp.url

Troubleshooting

  • Auth required → Click link, authorize, say "connected"
  • Action failed → Check permissions in target app
  • Tool not found → Be specific: "Slack #general" not "send message"
