## 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 CrewAI 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 CrewAI in plain language.

## Also integrate CrewAI with

- [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/crew_ai/framework/chatgpt)
- [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/crew_ai/framework/claude-cowork)
- [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/crew_ai/framework/hermes-agent)
- [Atomic Agent](https://composio.dev/toolkits/crew_ai/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 CrewAI to Grok Bot

### Connecting CrewAI to Grok Bot
Once Grok Bot is set up, you connect CrewAI 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 CrewAI
### 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 CrewAI account
Back in the chat, ask your bot to connect to CrewAI or give it any CrewAI task.
For example, ask it to:
- "Trigger nightly billing data-sync automation"
- "List all deployed CrewAI automations"
- "Fetch latest run logs for automation"
It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.
That's it. Composio's tools are now available in your Grok bot, and your CrewAI 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 CrewAI through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The CrewAI MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your CrewAI account. It provides structured and secure access to your deployed automations and deployment controls, so your agent can start executions, monitor progress, inspect deployment health, review logs, and resume paused work on your behalf.
- Automation execution: Have your agent check the required inputs and start a deployed CrewAI automation with the right information.
- Execution monitoring: Let the agent track an automation's state and progress, then retrieve its result or error.
- Deployment oversight: Instruct your agent to list available crew deployments and check whether a selected deployment is ready or experiencing problems.
- Deployment troubleshooting: Direct your agent to review deployment lifecycle logs when a build or runtime deployment fails.
- Recovery and continuation: Have your agent redeploy an existing automation when needed, or approve or retry a paused task so its execution can continue.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `CREW_AI_GET_DEPLOYMENT_LOGS` | Get Deployment Logs | Return deployment lifecycle logs for a CrewAI deployment UUID to diagnose build or runtime deployment failures. |
| `CREW_AI_GET_DEPLOYMENT_STATUS` | Get Deployment Status | Return the current AMP deployment status for one crew UUID from the SaaS control plane. |
| `CREW_AI_GET_EXECUTION_STATUS` | Get Execution Status | Return the current state, progress, result, or error for a deployed-crew execution started with a kickoff ID. |
| `CREW_AI_GET_REQUIRED_INPUTS` | Get Required Inputs | Return the input names required by the connected deployed CrewAI automation before starting an execution. |
| `CREW_AI_LIST_CREW_DEPLOYMENTS` | List Crew Deployments | List CrewAI crew deployments visible to the selected SaaS organization and return their identifiers for status, logs, or redeployment. |
| `CREW_AI_REDEPLOY_CREW` | Redeploy Crew | Trigger a new deployment of an existing CrewAI automation by UUID; this irreversibly changes the live deployment and may replace its runtime URL or token. |
| `CREW_AI_RESUME_CREW_EXECUTION` | Resume Crew Execution | Approve or retry a human-in-the-loop task and resume its paused CrewAI execution. Resuming may continue externally effectful work. |
| `CREW_AI_START_CREW_EXECUTION` | Start Crew Execution | Start one execution of the connected deployed CrewAI automation and return its kickoff ID for status checks. The automation may perform irreversible external actions. |

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

Once connected, your Grok bot can access the CrewAI 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 CrewAI 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 CrewAI MCP?

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

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

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