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 Fly 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 Fly in plain language.

Why use Composio?

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.

Connecting Fly to Grok Bot

Once Grok Bot is set up, you connect Fly 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 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 Fly

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.

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 Fly account

Back in the chat, ask your bot to connect to Fly or give it any Fly task.

For example, ask it to:

  • "Deploy latest image to Fly in Tokyo"
  • "List all running Fly apps by region"
  • "Scale up your Fly app to 3 instances"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in your Grok bot, and your Fly 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 Fly through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The Fly MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Fly account. It provides structured and secure access to your Fly applications, machines, organizations, regions, and account details, so your agent can inspect applications, list machines, review organizations, compare regions, and check platform information on your behalf.

  • Application visibility: Have your agent list applications in an organization and retrieve details about a specific Fly application.
  • Machine inventory: Let the agent list machines for an application or across an organization, then retrieve details about a specific machine.
  • Region and placement planning: Direct your agent to review available Fly regions and get placement recommendations for running machines.
  • Organization and account review: Instruct your agent to retrieve details about your personal organization, another organization, or the authenticated Fly account.
  • Platform and access checks: Have your agent check available VM sizes, supported regions, platform information, and details about the current authentication token.

Way Forward

Now that Fly 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.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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 Fly tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Fly 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.

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 Fly data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
