## 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 Microsoft To Do 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 Microsoft To Do in plain language.

## Also integrate Microsoft To Do with

- [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/chatgpt)
- [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/claude-cowork)

## 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 Microsoft To Do to Grok Bot

### Connecting Microsoft To Do to Grok Bot
Once Grok Bot is set up, you connect Microsoft To Do 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 Microsoft To Do
### 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 Microsoft To Do account
Back in the chat, ask your bot to connect to Microsoft To Do or give it any Microsoft To Do task.
For example, ask it to:
- "Create task for tomorrow's expense report"
- "List overdue tasks from all lists"
- "Add reminder to project checklist item"
It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.
That's it. Composio's tools are now available in your Grok bot, and your Microsoft To Do 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 Microsoft To Do through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

## What is the Microsoft To Do MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Microsoft To Do MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Microsoft To Do account. It provides structured and secure access to your task lists, tasks, checklist items, reminders, and attachments, so your agent can create, organize, update, complete, and delete tasks on your behalf.
- Task and list management: Have your agent create, rename, review, and delete task lists, then add or remove tasks as your plans change.
- Task planning and updates: Direct your agent to update task titles, notes, importance, status, due dates, start dates, reminders, and categories.
- Progress tracking: Let the agent list your tasks, retrieve task details, and mark finished work as completed.
- Checklist management: Instruct your agent to add, review, rename, check, uncheck, or delete checklist items within a task.
- Task attachment handling: Have your agent attach files to tasks, review available attachments, download needed files, or delete outdated ones.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_COMPLETE_TASK` | Complete Task | Mark a Microsoft To Do task as completed. Convenience wrapper that always PATCHes status='completed'; the server auto-sets completedDateTime. Use Update Task to reopen a task (status='notStarted') or to change other fields. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_CREATE_CHECKLIST_ITEM` | Create Checklist Item | Add a checklist item (subtask) to a Microsoft To Do task. Only display_name is required; the created item is returned with a GUID id, displayName, isChecked, and createdDateTime. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_CREATE_TASK` | Create Task | Create a task in a Microsoft To Do task list. Only title is required. Dates are passed as flat ISO-8601 strings plus a shared timezone; the tool builds the Graph dateTimeTimeZone objects. Notes are passed as body_content (+ body_content_type). NOTE: To Do treats due dates as whole days — the time component of due_date_time is normalized to midnight on save. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_CREATE_TASK_LIST` | Create Task List | Create a new Microsoft To Do task list. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_DELETE_CHECKLIST_ITEM` | Delete Checklist Item | Delete a checklist item (subtask) from a Microsoft To Do task. This permanently removes the checklist item (this cannot be undone). |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_DELETE_TASK` | Delete Task | Delete a task from a Microsoft To Do task list. WARNING: this also permanently removes the task's checklist items and linked resources. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_DELETE_TASK_ATTACHMENT` | Delete Task Attachment | Permanently delete a file attachment from a Microsoft To Do task. This cannot be undone. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_DELETE_TASK_LIST` | Delete Task List | Delete a Microsoft To Do task list. WARNING: this cascades — all tasks in the list and their checklist items are permanently deleted. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_DOWNLOAD_TASK_ATTACHMENT` | Download Task Attachment | Download one file attached to a Microsoft To Do task. The file is offloaded to storage and returned as a downloadable reference rather than inline base64. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_GET_CHECKLIST_ITEM` | Get Checklist Item | Get a single Microsoft To Do checklist item (subtask) by its id, within a task in a task list. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_GET_CURRENT_USER` | Get Current User | Return the profile of the Microsoft account connected to this toolkit (whoami / connection verification). Useful to confirm which mailbox the To Do tasks belong to before other operations. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_GET_TASK` | Get Task | Get a single Microsoft To Do task by its id, within a task list. Set include_checklist_items=true to expand its checklist items inline. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_GET_TASK_ATTACHMENT` | Get Task Attachment | Get metadata for one file attached to a Microsoft To Do task. Use Download Task Attachment to retrieve the file contents. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_GET_TASK_LIST` | Get Task List | Get a single Microsoft To Do task list by its id. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_LIST_CHECKLIST_ITEMS` | List Checklist Items | List the checklist items (subtasks) of a To Do task. Auto-paginates so all subtasks are returned at once as {items: [...]}. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_LIST_TASK_ATTACHMENTS` | List Task Attachments | List the files attached to a Microsoft To Do task. Returns attachment metadata without file contents, one page at a time, plus a next_cursor. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_LIST_TASK_LISTS` | List Task Lists | List the To Do task lists owned by the connected user. The built-in default list has wellknown_list_name='defaultList'; user-created lists have wellknown_list_name='none'. Always returns at least the default list. Select the default list by id or wellknown_list_name, never by the localized display_name. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_LIST_TASKS` | List Tasks | List the tasks in a To Do task list. Checklist items (subtasks) are NOT returned by default; set include_checklist_items=true to expand them inline. Returns one page of tasks plus a next_cursor for the next page. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_UPDATE_CHECKLIST_ITEM` | Update Checklist Item | Update a checklist item (subtask) of a Microsoft To Do task: rename it (display_name) and/or check/uncheck it (is_checked). Partial update: only the fields you pass are changed; at least one is required. Setting is_checked=true marks the subtask done. |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_UPDATE_TASK` | Update Task | Update fields of an existing Microsoft To Do task (title, notes, importance, status, due/start/reminder dates, categories). Partial update: only the fields you pass are changed; unset fields are left untouched. To mark a task done set status='completed' (or use the dedicated Complete Task tool). |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_UPDATE_TASK_LIST` | Update Task List | Rename a Microsoft To Do task list (updates its displayName). |
| `MICROSOFT_TODO_UPLOAD_TASK_ATTACHMENT` | Upload Task Attachment | Attach a file up to 25 MB to a Microsoft To Do task. The tool automatically uses a single request for files under 3 MB and a chunked upload session for larger files. |

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
Now that Microsoft To Do 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 Microsoft To Do MCP?

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

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Microsoft To Do while using Tool Router?

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