This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your Microsoft To Do account to Hermes. You can do this through either Composio Connect CLI or Composio Connect MCP. For personal use we recommend the CLI, but you won't go wrong with MCP either. ## Also integrate Microsoft To Do with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/openclaw) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/crew-ai) - [Pydantic AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/pydantic-ai) - [AutoGen](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_todo/framework/autogen) ## TL;DR ### What is Composio Connect? Composio Connect is a consumer offering that lets anyone plug 1,000+ applications directly into their agent harness — including Hermes. It can: - Search and load tools from relevant toolkits on-demand, reducing context usage. - Chain multiple tools to accomplish complex workflows via a remote workbench, without excessive back-and-forth with the LLM. - Manage app authentication end-to-end with zero manual overhead. ## Connect Microsoft To Do to Hermes ### Integrating Microsoft To Do with Hermes ### Using Composio Connect CLI 1. Install the Composio CLI Run the install script directly, or paste https://composio.dev/hermes into your Hermes chat box to have it installed for you. ```bash curl -fsSL https://composio.dev/install | bash ``` ## 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 so your agent can perform Microsoft To Do operations on your behalf. ## 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).

Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Microsoft To Do actions on your behalf using natural language commands. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward With Microsoft To Do connected, Hermes can now act on your behalf whenever it detects a relevant task or you ask it to. From here, you can extend Hermes further: - Connect more apps: Calendar, Slack, Notion, Linear, and hundreds of others are available through the same Composio Connect setup. Each new integration compounds what Hermes can do for you. - Build workflows across tools: Once multiple apps are connected, Hermes can chain actions together — turn an email into a calendar invite, a Slack message into a Linear ticket, or a meeting note into a follow-up draft. - Let it learn your patterns: The more you use Hermes, the better it gets at anticipating how you'd handle recurring tasks. Give it feedback on drafts and decisions, and it will adapt.

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 Hermes? Yes, you can. Hermes 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. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
