## Introduction

Grok is xAI's assistant, and its bot builder lets you create a personal agent that holds context, runs skills, and connects to the apps you already use through plugins.
This guide explains how to connect Cohere to a Grok bot using Composio Connect, which handles OAuth, token refresh, and reliability so you do not have to. You add Composio as a plugin, authenticate once, then ask your bot to work with Cohere in plain language.

## Also integrate Cohere with

- [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cohere/framework/chatgpt)
- [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cohere/framework/claude-cowork)
- [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cohere/framework/hermes-agent)
- [Atomic Agent](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cohere/framework/atomic-agent)

## TL;DR

Composio exposes 1,700+ apps to your Grok bot through a single connection, so you get:
- Connect to 1,700+ apps with on-demand tool loading, so you do not fill your context window with unnecessary tool definitions.
- Use programmatic tool calling through a remote workbench, letting the model write its own code to handle complex tool chaining. This reduces back-and-forth for frequent tool calls.
- Handle large tool responses outside the model context to keep conversations lean.

## Connect Cohere to Grok Bot

### Connecting Cohere to Grok Bot
Once Grok Bot is set up, you connect Cohere entirely from its interface, and the whole flow takes under a minute.
### Set up Grok Bot
Get access. Grok Bot is included with Cursor Ultra, Cursor Premium Teams, and SuperGrok Heavy. Get the desktop app for macOS or Windows from [x.ai/bot](https://x.ai/bot) and sign in. An iPhone companion app is also available, and your bots sync across devices.
Create a bot. Pick a suggested role or define your own, then give it a short name, one primary job, and a short description of how it should work. Focused bots work best, because a clear role gives the bot more useful context over time.
### Connect Cohere
### 1. Add the Composio plugin
Click the button. The Composio listing on x.ai opens and launches Grok Bot for you. If the app does not open on its own, click Add to Grok Bot.
[Add to Grok Bot](https://x.ai/bot/plugin/32661537)
Grok Bot opens the Composio plugin, showing its connector and skills. Click Add.
### 2. Authenticate
Go to the Installed section and click the Composio entry. You'll see its connector and skills listed.
Click Authenticate. You'll be taken to the Composio consent screen. Review the access it requests and click Authorize. Composio handles the OAuth handshake for you, so you never touch API keys or tokens.
### 3. Connect your Cohere account
Back in the chat, ask your bot to connect to Cohere or give it any Cohere task.
For example, ask it to:
- "Generate product descriptions with Cohere generate"
- "Classify customer messages with Cohere classify"
- "Create embeddings for search using Cohere embeddings"
It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.
That's it. Composio's tools are now available in your Grok bot, and your Cohere account is ready to use.

## What is Grok Bot?

Grok is xAI's assistant, available as a chat interface and a bot builder for creating personal agents that run skills and connect to external apps.
With Composio Connect, your Grok bot can securely access apps like Cohere through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

## What is the Cohere MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Cohere MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Cohere account. It provides structured and secure access to Cohere chat, embedding, reranking, transcription, and dataset workflows, so your agent can generate chat responses, create embeddings, rank documents, transcribe audio, and manage processing jobs on your behalf.
- Chat and structured responses: Have your agent generate responses from ordered conversations, use supporting documents, call tools, apply reasoning controls, or return structured output.
- Embeddings and token processing: Direct your agent to create embeddings from text, images, or structured multimodal content, and tokenize or detokenize text with a selected Cohere model.
- Document relevance ranking: Let the agent rerank text documents against a query and return the most relevant source content.
- Audio transcription: Instruct your agent to transcribe uploaded audio files into text using a Cohere transcription model.
- Datasets and processing jobs: Have your agent upload and inspect datasets, create or cancel batch and embedding jobs, check their progress, and review available Cohere models.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `COHERE_CANCEL_BATCH` | Cancel Batch | Cancel one in-progress Cohere batch. This requires a production Cohere API key, stops the batch irreversibly, and cannot be undone. |
| `COHERE_CANCEL_EMBED_JOB` | Cancel Embed Job | Irreversibly cancel one active Cohere asynchronous embed job by ID. Cohere accrued charges for work processed before cancellation still apply, and partial results are not available. Cancel only a caller-owned job. This action sends one request and does not poll for the cancelled state. |
| `COHERE_CHAT` | Chat | Generate one non-streaming Cohere chat response from an ordered conversation, optionally using documents, tools, structured output, or reasoning controls. |
| `COHERE_CHECK_API_KEY` | Check API Key | Check whether the connected Cohere API key is valid and return its organization and owner identifiers when available. |
| `COHERE_CREATE_BATCH` | Create Batch | Start one asynchronous Cohere batch from an existing validated batch request dataset and return immediately without polling. Cohere requires a production API key for the Batch API. |
| `COHERE_CREATE_DATASET` | Create Dataset | Upload a Cohere dataset and start asynchronous validation. Returns immediately without waiting for validation to finish. |
| `COHERE_CREATE_EMBED_JOB` | Create Embed Job | Start one asynchronous Cohere embedding job for a validated embed-input dataset and return immediately without polling. |
| `COHERE_DELETE_DATASET` | Delete Dataset | Permanently delete a Cohere dataset by ID. This deletion cannot be undone. |
| `COHERE_DETOKENIZE_TOKENS` | Detokenize Tokens | Convert ordered Cohere token IDs back to text using the tokenizer for an explicit matching model. |
| `COHERE_EMBED_INPUTS` | Embed Inputs | Create v2 embeddings from exactly one input form: text strings, image data URIs, or structured multimodal content. |
| `COHERE_GET_BATCH` | Get Batch | Retrieve one asynchronous Cohere batch's status and counters by batch ID. A usable batch ID depends on a production-key CREATE_BATCH lifecycle; this action performs one read only, and callers control any bounded polling. |
| `COHERE_GET_DATASET` | Get Dataset | Retrieve one Cohere dataset by ID, including its asynchronous validation state, schema, files, parsing details, and metrics. Callers control any polling and should bound it. |
| `COHERE_GET_DATASET_USAGE` | Get Dataset Usage | Read the organization's Cohere dataset-storage consumption in bytes. |
| `COHERE_GET_EMBED_JOB` | Get Embed Job | Retrieve one Cohere asynchronous embedding job's current status, model, and input and output dataset identifiers by job ID. |
| `COHERE_GET_MODEL` | Get Model | Retrieve a Cohere model's endpoint compatibility, context size, features, tokenizer, and default sampling parameters by model name. |
| `COHERE_LIST_BATCHES` | List Batches | Return one page of asynchronous Cohere batches and their statuses without creating or cancelling work. |
| `COHERE_LIST_DATASETS` | List Datasets | Return one offset-based page of Cohere datasets, optionally filtered by type, validation status, or creation time. Cohere provides no total or continuation metadata, so callers control offset explicitly. |
| `COHERE_LIST_EMBED_JOBS` | List Embed Jobs | List Cohere asynchronous embedding jobs and their current statuses. |
| `COHERE_LIST_MODELS` | List Models | Discover Cohere model names and capabilities, optionally filtered to an endpoint or its default model. Returns one page without auto-pagination. |
| `COHERE_RERANK_DOCUMENTS` | Rerank Documents | Rank text documents by relevance to a query and return the highest-scoring source documents. |
| `COHERE_TOKENIZE_TEXT` | Tokenize Text | Convert text into token IDs with an explicit Cohere model. Detokenization must use the same model because token IDs differ between model tokenizers. |
| `COHERE_TRANSCRIBE_AUDIO` | Transcribe Audio | Transcribe an uploaded audio file to text with a Cohere transcription model. |

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
Now that Cohere is connected, extend your setup by connecting the other apps you already use every day, so your Grok bot can run true cross-app workflows end to end.
- Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically.
- Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works.
- Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs.
- Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps.
Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single connection, your bot can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Cohere MCP?

With a standalone Cohere MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Cohere tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Cohere and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Grok Bot?

Yes, you can. Grok Bot fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Cohere tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Cohere while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Cohere scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Cohere data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
