Why use Composio?
Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:
- CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
- Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise context rot.
- Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 870+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.
How to install Calendly MCP in Codex
Run the setup command
Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex.
It will initiate the authentication in a browser window, authorize Codex to access your Composio account.
(Optional) Authenticate with OAuth
To authenticate manually, run the login command to open a browser window and authorize Codex to access your Composio account.
Verify the connection
Run codex mcp list to confirm Composio appears as a registered MCP server.
Codex App
Codex App follows the same approach as VS Code.
- Click ⚙️ on the bottom left → MCP Servers → + Add servers → Streamable HTTP:
- Fill the header and Key fields with
{ "x-consumer-api-key" = "ck_*******" }. - The Key is the Composio API key, that you can find on connect.composio.dev
- Click on Authenticate and authorize Codex to your Composio account and you're all set.
- Restart and verify if it's there in
.codex/config.toml
What is the Calendly MCP server, and what's possible with it?
The Calendly MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Calendly account. It provides structured and secure access to your scheduling workflows, so your agent can perform actions like creating personalized scheduling links, managing events, handling invitee statuses, and automating reminders on your behalf.
- Instant scheduling link creation: Direct your agent to generate single-use or shareable scheduling links so others can book time with you instantly—no more back-and-forth emails.
- Automated event and invitee management: Have your agent cancel events, mark invitees as no-shows, or remove no-show statuses to keep your calendar accurate and up to date.
- Custom one-off event setup: Empower your agent to create unique, one-off meeting types for special situations, bypassing your regular availability rules.
- Webhook subscription automation: Let the agent set up webhook subscriptions to trigger notifications or workflows in real time when events happen in your Calendly account.
- Data privacy and compliance actions: Instruct your agent to delete invitee data or scheduled event records as needed for privacy or regulatory compliance, especially for enterprise use cases.
