A setup command for connecting Claude to external apps through Composio. It asks for an API key, creates a connection address, and adds the connection to the MCP configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Connect Apps Setup

Set up the connect-apps plugin so Claude can take real actions in external apps (Gmail, Slack, GitHub, etc). Uses Composio for auth and app connections.

Instructions

Step 1: Ask for API Key

Ask the user for their Composio API key. If they don't have one, tell them to get a free key at: https://platform.composio.dev/?utm_source=Github&utm_content=AwesomeSkills

Just ask for the key directly. Don't ask if they have one first.

Step 2: Validate & Get MCP URL

Run this command (replace API_KEY_HERE with the actual key):

/opt/homebrew/bin/python3.11 -c "
from composio import Composio
composio = Composio(api_key='API_KEY_HERE')
session = composio.create(user_id='claude_user')
print(session.mcp.url)
"

If it fails with import error, first run: pip3 install composio

Step 3: Write Config

Write directly to ~/.mcp.json with this exact format:

{
  "connect-apps": {
    "type": "http",
    "url": "THE_MCP_URL_FROM_STEP_2",
    "headers": {
      "x-api-key": "THE_API_KEY"
    }
  }
}

If ~/.mcp.json already exists with other servers, merge the "connect-apps" key into the existing JSON.

Step 4: Confirm

Tell the user:

Setup complete!

To activate: exit and run `claude` again

Then try: "Send me a test email at [email protected]"

Important

  • Do NOT try to edit settings.local.json - MCP servers go in ~/.mcp.json
  • Do NOT search for config locations - just write to ~/.mcp.json
  • Do NOT ask multiple questions - just ask for the API key once
  • Be fast - this should take under 30 seconds

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
