## 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 Coinmarketcal 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 Coinmarketcal in plain language.

## TL;DR

Composio exposes 1,500+ apps to your Grok bot through a single connection, so you get:
- Connect to 1,500+ 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 Coinmarketcal to Grok Bot

### Connecting Coinmarketcal to Grok Bot
Once Grok Bot is set up, you connect Coinmarketcal 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 Coinmarketcal
### 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 Coinmarketcal account
Back in the chat, ask your bot to connect to Coinmarketcal or give it any Coinmarketcal task.
For example, ask it to:
- "Show upcoming Bitcoin-related events this week"
- "List major crypto conferences in June"
- "Find new coin launches happening today"
It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.
That's it. Composio's tools are now available in your Grok bot, and your Coinmarketcal 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 Coinmarketcal through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The Coinmarketcal MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Coinmarketcal account. It provides structured and secure access to the Coinmarketcal crypto events calendar, so your agent can perform actions like fetching upcoming cryptocurrency events, discovering new project launches, and tracking market-impacting announcements on your behalf.
- Fetch upcoming crypto events: Ask your agent to retrieve a list of scheduled events, announcements, or coin releases that could impact the crypto markets.
- Discover project launches and updates: Stay on top of new token launches, hard forks, or upgrade announcements directly from Coinmarketcal’s trusted community-driven calendar.
- Track market-impacting news: Let your agent monitor important developments and milestone events for specific coins or across the entire crypto ecosystem.
- Stay informed on trending events: Quickly surface the most anticipated or discussed crypto events, enabling smarter trading and investment decisions.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `COINMARKETCAL_LIST_COINS` | List Coins | Tool to retrieve list of all available coins/cryptocurrencies in CoinMarketCal database. Use when you need to fetch coin information including IDs, names, symbols, and event counts. |
| `COINMARKETCAL_LIST_EVENT_CATEGORIES` | List Event Categories | Tool to list all event categories. Use when you need to fetch available event categories. |
| `COINMARKETCAL_LIST_EVENTS` | List Cryptocurrency Events | Tool to retrieve list of cryptocurrency events. Use when you need to fetch upcoming or past crypto events filtered by date range, coins, categories, or other criteria. Note: Cannot retrieve events before 25/11/2017. The can_occur_before field is important as some events may happen before their stated date. |

## Supported Triggers

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

Once connected, your Grok bot can access the Coinmarketcal MCP server through Composio to run the actions you authorize, using plain language in the chat.

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
Now that Coinmarketcal 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 Coinmarketcal MCP?

With a standalone Coinmarketcal MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Coinmarketcal tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Coinmarketcal 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 Coinmarketcal tools.

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

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Coinmarketcal 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 Coinmarketcal data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
