## 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 Resource Planner 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 Resource Planner in plain language.

## Also integrate Resource Planner with

- [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/resource_planner/framework/chatgpt)
- [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/resource_planner/framework/claude-cowork)
- [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/resource_planner/framework/hermes-agent)
- [Atomic Agent](https://composio.dev/toolkits/resource_planner/framework/atomic-agent)

## TL;DR

Composio exposes 1,700+ apps to your Grok bot through a single connection, so you get:
- Connect to 1,700+ 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 Resource Planner to Grok Bot

### Connecting Resource Planner to Grok Bot
Once Grok Bot is set up, you connect Resource Planner 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 Resource Planner
### 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 Resource Planner account
Back in the chat, ask your bot to connect to Resource Planner or give it any Resource Planner task.
For example, ask it to:
- "Schedule John for project Alpha next week"
- "List unassigned tasks for Q3 projects"
- "Approve timesheet entries for last week"
It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.
That's it. Composio's tools are now available in your Grok bot, and your Resource Planner 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 Resource Planner through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The Resource Planner MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Resource Planner account. It provides structured and secure access to your projects, resources, assignments, and time entries, so your agent can plan projects, schedule people, update assignments, review tracked time, and clean up workspace records on your behalf.
- Project planning: Have your agent create projects, review current project details, and update titles, notes, colors, or visibility.
- Resource management: Let the agent create and review resources, set capacity and workdays during creation, update internal notes, and manage visibility.
- Team scheduling: Direct your agent to assign a resource to a project for a chosen date range, review schedules, or update assignment notes.
- Time entry review: Instruct your agent to review workspace time entries and include a total duration summary when needed.
- Workspace cleanup: Have your agent remove outdated assignments, projects, or resources when they are no longer needed.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |

## Conclusion

### Way Forward
Now that Resource Planner 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 Resource Planner MCP?

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

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Resource Planner while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Resource Planner 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 Resource Planner data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
