This guide explains how to connect Cutt ly 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 Cutt ly in plain language. ## Also integrate Cutt ly with - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/claude-cowork) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/hermes-agent) - [Atomic Agent](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/atomic-agent) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/crew-ai) - [Pydantic AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/pydantic-ai) - [AutoGen](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/autogen) ## 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 Cutt ly to Grok Bot ### Connecting Cutt ly to Grok Bot Once Grok Bot is set up, you connect Cutt ly 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 Cutt ly ### 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 Cutt ly account Back in the chat, ask your bot to connect to Cutt ly or give it any Cutt ly task. For example, ask it to: - "Show your five most recent short links" - "Get analytics for your latest shortened URL" - "List details of last three Cutt.ly links" It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access. That's it. Composio's tools are now available in your Grok bot, and your Cutt ly 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 Cutt ly through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent. ## What is the Cutt ly MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Cutt ly MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Cutt ly account. It provides structured and secure access to your link management tools, so your agent can view recently shortened URLs, monitor your latest links, and analyze basic link details on your behalf. - Retrieve recently shortened URLs: Instantly access a list of your most recently shortened links, making it easy to track new campaigns or shared content. - View detailed link information: Ask your agent to pull details for each shortened URL, including destination, creation time, and basic analytics. - Monitor link activity trends: Quickly scan your latest links to spot changes or trends in what you and your team are sharing. - Streamline link management tasks: Let your agent do the tedious work of gathering and summarizing your recent link activity, so you can focus on strategy. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `CUTT_LY_SHORTEN_URL` | Shorten URL | Tool to shorten a URL using Cutt.ly Regular API. Creates a shortened link that redirects to the original URL. Use when you need to create a short link for sharing. Supports custom aliases and additional options. | | `CUTT_LY_VIEW_LAST_SHORTENED_URLS` | View Last Shortened URLs | This action retrieves a list of recently shortened URLs from your Cutt.ly account. It allows users to view their latest shortened links and their details. Note: Due to API limitations, this action may not return all historical URLs. For complete history, please use the Cutt.ly dashboard. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK Once connected, your Grok bot can access the Cutt ly 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 Cutt ly 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. ## How to build Cutt ly MCP Agent with another framework - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/claude-cowork) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/hermes-agent) - [Atomic Agent](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/atomic-agent) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/crew-ai) - [Pydantic AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/pydantic-ai) - [AutoGen](https://composio.dev/toolkits/cutt_ly/framework/autogen) ## Related Toolkits - [Reddit](https://composio.dev/toolkits/reddit) - Reddit is a social news platform with thriving user-driven communities (subreddits).

With a standalone Cutt ly MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Cutt ly tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Cutt ly 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 Cutt ly tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Cutt ly while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Cutt ly 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 Cutt ly data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
