/plugin install composio-toolrouter
Step 2: Run Setup
/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
Email: Gmail, Outlook, SendGrid Chat: Slack, Discord, Teams, Telegram Dev: GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Linear Docs: Notion, Google Docs, Confluence Data: Sheets, Airtable, PostgreSQL And 1000+ more...
How It Works
- You ask Claude to do something
- Composio Tool Router finds the right tool
- First time? You'll authorize via OAuth (one-time)
- 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

Connect Claude to external apps like Gmail, Slack, GitHub, Notion, and more, so it can perform real actions instead of just generating text. It enables sending emails, creating issues, posting messages, and updating data across services.
How This Skill Works
You ask Claude to perform a task. The Composio Tool Router identifies the right tool and connects to the target app. On first use you authorize via OAuth (one-time). The action executes and returns the result.
When to Use It
- Send an email to a contact via Gmail/Outlook
- Create a GitHub issue from a user request
- Post a message to a Slack channel
- Add notes or a document to Notion or Google Docs
- Update data in Sheets or Airtable
Quick Start
- Step 1: Install the Plugin
- Step 2: Run Setup
- Step 3: Try It!
Best Practices
- Install the Composio Tool Router plugin before trying actions (/plugin install composio-toolrouter).
- Use precise prompts like 'Send email to X about Y' or 'Create GitHub issue: Z'.
- Complete the OAuth authorization on first use to enable real actions.
- Check permissions in the target app if an action fails, and adjust scopes if needed.
- Start with small test tasks (e.g., a test email) to verify end-to-end connectivity.
Example Use Cases
- Send email to sarah@acme.com about the launch
- Create GitHub issue: fix login bug
- Post to Slack #general: deploy complete
- Add meeting notes to Notion
- Update Google Sheet with latest sales numbers
