# Connect Apps Connect Claude to 1000+ apps using the [Composio CLI](https://docs.composio.dev/docs/cli). Actually send emails, create issues, post messages - not just generate text about it. ## Quick Start ### Step 1: Install the Composio CLI ```bash curl -fsSL https://composio.dev/install | bash ``` ### Step 2: Log In ```bash composio login composio whoami ``` Opens a browser for auth, then prompts you to pick a default org and project. Use `-y` to skip prompts in scripts. ### Step 3: Link the Apps You Need ```bash composio link gmail composio link slack composio link github ``` Each command walks OAuth once; the connection then persists. ### Step 4: Try It ```bash composio execute GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL -d '{ "recipient_email": "YOUR_EMAIL@example.com", "subject": "Composio test", "body": "Hello from the CLI" }' ``` If the email arrives, you're connected. ## What You Can Do | Ask Claude to... | Claude runs | |------------------|-------------| | "Send email to sarah@acme.com about the launch" | `composio execute GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL -d '{...}'` | | "Create GitHub issue: fix login bug" | `composio execute GITHUB_CREATE_ISSUE -d '{...}'` | | "Post to Slack #general: deploy complete" | `compo

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add composio-community/awesome-codex-skills --skill connect-apps --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From composio-community/awesome-codex-skills, a repository with 15,591 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
