## Introduction

### How to integrate Gamma MCP with Grok Build
[Grok Build](https://docs.x.ai/build/overview) is xAI's terminal coding agent. It runs on Grok 4.5, plans its work before it acts, and can run multiple sub-agents in parallel. It also reads Claude Code's MCP configuration, so any server you already have in a .mcp.json is picked up with no changes.
In this guide, I will show you how to connect your Gamma account to Grok Build through Composio, so it can create a pitch deck for a startup idea, generate an interactive onboarding presentation, summarize a research paper as slides, and more without leaving the terminal. Composio holds the OAuth tokens for you, and Grok Build only calls the tools you approve.

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio over a standalone MCP server?
- Read and write access. Composio's Gamma integration lets Grok Build take real actions like creating drafts, sending updates, and labeling records, not just reading data.
- 1,000+ SaaS toolkits out of the box. One endpoint gives you a full catalog of pre-built connectors, from Gmail and Slack to Notion, Linear, and Salesforce.
- One MCP server for every app. Wire up a single Composio server instead of maintaining a separate MCP entry for each app.
- Smart, context-aware tool loading. Grok Build caps how many tools it holds in a single request. Composio loads only the tools a task needs, so you do not spend that budget on tools you are not using.
- Cross-app automation. Chain actions across apps in one run. Pull a thread, summarize it in Notion, and post the highlights to Slack from a single prompt.

## Connect Gamma to Grok Build

### Prerequisites
- Grok Build installed and signed in. Install with curl -fsSL https://x.ai/cli/install.sh | bash on macOS or Linux, or irm https://x.ai/cli/install.ps1 | iex on Windows PowerShell. On first launch Grok opens a browser to authenticate; for headless or CI use, set an XAI_API_KEY environment variable instead (create the key at [console.x.ai](https://console.x.ai/)).
- Access to the Gamma account you want to connect.
- The [Composio MCP endpoint](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=grok-build&utm_content=composio_connect). Composio's server is remote and hosted, so there is nothing to run locally and no tunnel to set up.
### Step-by-step: Connect Gamma to Grok Build
### 1. Install and verify Grok Build
Install the CLI, then restart your shell so the grok binary lands on your PATH:

```bash
curl -fsSL https://x.ai/cli/install.sh | bash
which grok
```

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

The Gamma MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Gamma account. It provides structured and secure access to Gamma’s AI-powered content creation platform, so your agent can generate new presentations, monitor generation progress, and retrieve finished files on your behalf.
- AI-driven presentation generation: Instantly create beautiful, interactive decks or documents through simple prompts, letting your agent handle the heavy lifting.
- Automated content creation: Ask your agent to produce engaging summaries, reports, or educational material as shareable Gamma presentations.
- Real-time generation status tracking: Have your agent monitor the progress of each presentation request and keep you updated on completion status.
- Direct retrieval of generated files: Let your agent fetch download URLs for finished Gamma files, making it easy to share or embed them anywhere.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `GAMMA_CREATE_FROM_TEMPLATE` | Create from Template | Tool to create new Gamma content based on an existing template. Use when you need to generate content with a predefined structure/layout by providing custom instructions and prompt. The API creates content asynchronously. This action polls the generation status and returns the gammaUrl when complete, or a generationId if the 2-minute timeout is reached. |
| `GAMMA_GENERATE_GAMMA` | Generate a Gamma | Generate a Gamma presentation, document, webpage, or social media content using AI. Documentation: https://developers.gamma.app/docs/generate-api-parameters-explained The API creates content asynchronously. Poll the returned generationId to check status. |
| `GAMMA_GET_GAMMA_FILE_URLS` | Get Gamma File URLs | Retrieve generation status and file URLs. Poll this endpoint every ~5 seconds until status is 'completed'. Docs: https://developers.gamma.app/reference/get-generation-status |
| `GAMMA_LIST_FOLDERS` | List Folders | Tool to retrieve a paginated list of folders in your Gamma workspace. Use when you need folder IDs to organize generated content or to search for specific folders by name. |
| `GAMMA_LIST_THEMES` | List Themes | Fetch the list of themes available in your workspace. Returns both standard (global) and custom (workspace-specific) themes in a paginated format. Use this to discover available theme IDs and names for use with the Generate API. Filter by name using the query parameter. |

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What is the difference between the Composio Tool Router and a standalone Gamma MCP server?

A standalone Gamma MCP server gives Grok Build a fixed set of Gamma tools tied to that one server. The Composio Tool Router lets Grok Build load tools from Gamma and many other apps on demand, based on the task, all through a single endpoint.

### Does Grok Build support MCP?

Yes. Grok Build ships with native MCP support. Add a server with the grok mcp add command, from the in-session /mcps modal, or by editing ~/.grok/config.toml. It also reads Claude Code-style .mcp.json files, so Grok Build discovers the tools automatically.

### Can I reuse the same MCP config I already use with Claude Code?

Yes. Grok Build has zero-migration compatibility with Claude Code's configuration, so the same Composio server entry works in both without edits.

### How safe is my Gamma data with Composio?

Tokens, keys, and configuration are encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant, so your Gamma data and credentials are handled to that standard.
