Composio โ€” External App Integration via Gateway

Composio lets users connect 1000+ external apps (Gmail, Slack, GitHub, Google Calendar, Notion, etc.) to their Starchild agent. All operations go through the Composio Gateway (composio-gateway.fly.dev), which handles auth and API key management.

Architecture

Agent (Fly 6PN network)
    โ†“  HTTP (auto-authenticated by IPv6)
Composio Gateway (composio-gateway.fly.dev)
    โ†“  Composio SDK
Composio Cloud โ†’ Target API (Gmail, Slack, etc.)
  • You never touch the COMPOSIO_API_KEY โ€” the gateway holds it
  • You never call Composio SDK directly โ€” use the gateway HTTP API
  • Authentication is automatic โ€” your Fly 6PN IPv6 resolves to a user_id via the billing DB
  • No env vars needed โ€” the gateway is always accessible from any agent container

Gateway Base URL

GATEWAY = "http://composio-gateway.flycast"

All requests use plain HTTP over Fly internal network (flycast). No JWT needed.

API Reference

1. Search Tools (compact)

Find the right tool slug for a task. Returns compact tool info โ€” just slug, description, and parameter names. Enough to pick the right tool.

curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/search \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "send email via gmail"}'

Response (compact):

{
  "results": [{"primary_tool_slugs": ["GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL"], "use_case": "send email", ...}],
  "tool_schemas": {
    "GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL": {
      "tool_slug": "GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL",
      "toolkit": "gmail",
      "description": "Send an email...",
      "parameters": ["to", "subject", "body", "cc", "bcc"],
      "required": ["to", "subject", "body"]
    }
  },
  "toolkit_connection_statuses": [...]
}

2. Get Tool Schema (full)

Get the complete parameter definitions for a specific tool โ€” types, descriptions, enums, defaults. Use this after search when you need exact parameter formats.

curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/tool_schema \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool": "GOOGLECALENDAR_EVENTS_LIST"}'

Response:

{
  "data": {
    "tool_slug": "GOOGLECALENDAR_EVENTS_LIST",
    "description": "Returns events on the specified calendar.",
    "input_parameters": {
      "properties": {
        "timeMin": {"type": "string", "description": "RFC3339 timestamp..."},
        "timeMax": {"type": "string", "description": "RFC3339 timestamp..."},
        "calendarId": {"type": "string", "default": "primary"}
      },
      "required": ["calendarId"]
    }
  },
  "error": null
}

3. Execute a Tool

Execute a Composio tool. Key name is arguments, not params.

curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/execute \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool": "GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL", "arguments": {"to": "x@example.com", "subject": "Hi", "body": "Hello!"}}'

On success:

{"data": {"messages": [...]}, "error": null}

On failure โ€” includes tool_schema so you can self-correct:

{
  "data": null,
  "error": "Missing required parameter: calendarId",
  "tool_schema": {
    "tool_slug": "GOOGLECALENDAR_EVENTS_LIST",
    "description": "...",
    "input_parameters": {"properties": {...}, "required": [...]}
  }
}

4. List User's Connections (and confirm OAuth completion)

# Optional toolkit filter: oauth_completed_active only turns true
# when that toolkit status is ACTIVE.
curl -s "$GATEWAY/internal/connections?toolkit=gmail"

Response includes:

  • connections: current deduplicated connection list
  • oauth_completed_active: boolean, true only when OAuth completion is observed as ACTIVE

Cache invalidation is triggered only after ACTIVE is observed, and it targets the user's instance (fly-force-instance-id=<user container_id from user_mapping>), not composio-gateway's own instance.

5. Initiate New Connection

curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/api/connect \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"toolkit": "gmail"}'

Returns connect_url for the user to complete OAuth.

6. Disconnect

curl -s -X DELETE $GATEWAY/api/connections/{connection_id}

Instagram Posting (important slug mapping)

Composio search may return legacy Instagram slugs that are not executable in this environment. When posting to Instagram, use these working slugs:

  1. Create draft container:
  • INSTAGRAM_CREATE_MEDIA_CONTAINER
  • Required: ig_user_id
  • Typical args for photo: {"ig_user_id":"...","image_url":"https://...","content_type":"photo","caption":"..."}
  1. Publish draft:
  • INSTAGRAM_CREATE_POST
  • Required: ig_user_id, creation_id

Two-step flow:

  • Execute INSTAGRAM_CREATE_MEDIA_CONTAINER โ†’ read data.data.id as creation_id
  • Execute INSTAGRAM_CREATE_POST with that creation_id

Tip: If /internal/search suggests INSTAGRAM_POST_IG_USER_MEDIA or INSTAGRAM_POST_IG_USER_MEDIA_PUBLISH but execute returns "Tool ... not found", switch to the two slugs above.

Browserbase โ€” Hybrid Workflow (Session Management + Playwright CDP)

Composio's Browserbase tools ONLY manage session lifecycle (open/close/list). They do NOT control web pages.

To actually operate a browser (navigate, click, fill forms, scrape data), use Playwright connect_over_cdp to connect to the session's WebSocket URL.

Step 1: Create a Browserbase Session via Composio

curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/execute \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool": "BROWSERBASE_TOOL_SESSIONS_CREATE", "arguments": {"projectId": "YOUR_PROJECT_ID"}}'

Response includes id (session_id), status, and timestamps.

Step 2: Build the CDP WebSocket URL

import os
session_id = "<session_id from step 1>"
api_key = os.environ.get("BROWSERBASE_API_KEY")  # stored in workspace/.env
cdp_url = f"wss://connect.browserbase.com?apiKey={api_key}&sessionId={session_id}"

Step 3: Control the Browser with Playwright

from playwright.async_api import async_playwright

async with async_playwright() as p:
    browser = await p.chromium.connect_over_cdp(cdp_url)
    page = await browser.new_page()
    await page.goto("https://example.com")

    # Click, fill, screenshot โ€” full Playwright API
    await page.click("button.submit")
    await page.fill("input[name='email']", "user@test.com")
    await page.screenshot(path="result.png")

    content = await page.content()

Step 4: Delete the Session (IMPORTANT โ€” stops billing)

curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/execute \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool": "BROWSERBASE_TOOL_SESSIONS_DELETE", "arguments": {"id": "YOUR_SESSION_ID"}}'

Key Concepts

AspectDetail
Composio roleSession lifecycle only โ€” create, list, delete sessions
Playwright rolePage control โ€” navigate, click, fill, scrape, screenshot
Memory cost~30-50MB locally (Playwright client only); Chromium runs on Browserbase servers
Anti-detectionBrowserbase handles it server-side โ€” fingerprint masking, captcha solving, Cloudflare bypass. Playwright client does nothing special.
BillingPer-minute (rounded up). Always delete sessions when done.

Full Example Script (Create โ†’ Control โ†’ Delete)

#!/usr/bin/env python3
"""Browserbase: create session โ†’ control with Playwright โ†’ clean up."""
import asyncio, os, requests
from playwright.async_api import async_playwright

GATEWAY = "http://composio-gateway.flycast"
PROJECT_ID = os.environ.get("BROWSERBASE_PROJECT_ID")

async def main():
    # 1. Create session via Composio
    resp = requests.post(f"{GATEWAY}/internal/execute", json={
        "tool": "BROWSERBASE_TOOL_SESSIONS_CREATE",
        "arguments": {"projectId": PROJECT_ID}
    }).json()
    session_id = resp["data"]["id"]
    print(f"Session created: {session_id}")

    try:
        # 2. Connect via CDP
        api_key = os.environ["BROWSERBASE_API_KEY"]
        cdp_url = f"wss://connect.browserbase.com?apiKey={api_key}&sessionId={session_id}"

        async with async_playwright() as p:
            browser = await p.chromium.connect_over_cdp(cdp_url)
            page = await browser.new_page()
            await page.goto("https://example.com")
            title = await page.title()
            print(f"Page title: {title}")
            await browser.close()

    finally:
        # 3. Always delete session to stop billing
        requests.post(f"{GATEWAY}/internal/execute", json={
            "tool": "BROWSERBASE_TOOL_SESSIONS_DELETE",
            "arguments": {"id": session_id}
        })
        print("Session deleted")

asyncio.run(main())

Browserbase / Browser Tool troubleshooting

If Browserbase is connected but execution fails, check naming mismatches across connection toolkit vs tool slug:

  • Connection may appear as toolkit browserbase_tool
  • Search may return tool slugs like BROWSER_TOOL_CREATE_TASK
  • Execute may still reject that slug (Tool ... not found) and only resolve legacy slugs under toolkit browserbase

Quick diagnosis:

# 1) Health + active connections
curl -s $GATEWAY/health
curl -s $GATEWAY/internal/connections

# 2) Search browser tool slugs
curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/search \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query":"browserbase create task"}'

# 3) Try execute and inspect exact error
curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/execute \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool":"BROWSER_TOOL_CREATE_TASK","arguments":{"task":"open https://example.com"}}'

If error says No active connection found for toolkit 'browserbase', gateway should normalize Browserbase aliases server-side (browser/browserbase/browserbase_tool) and normalize execute slug variants (BROWSERBASE_TOOL_* โ†” BROWSER_TOOL_*) so both old/new clients work with a browserbase_tool active connection.

Optimal Workflow (minimize tool calls)

Known tool โ†’ Direct execute (1 call)

If you already know the tool slug and parameters from previous use or the Common Tools table below, skip search entirely:

curl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/execute \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool": "GOOGLECALENDAR_EVENTS_LIST", "arguments": {"calendarId": "primary", "timeMin": "2026-04-02T00:00:00+08:00", "timeMax": "2026-04-09T00:00:00+08:00", "singleEvents": true, "timeZone": "Asia/Hong_Kong"}}'

Unknown tool โ†’ Search + Schema + Execute (2-3 calls)

  1. Search (compact) โ†’ pick the right tool slug
  2. Get schema (if param details unclear) โ†’ know exact argument format
  3. Execute โ†’ with correct arguments

If execute fails, the error response includes the full schema โ€” so you can retry immediately without an extra schema call.

Wrap in a script for repeat use

For recurring queries, write a one-shot Python script:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys, json, requests
from datetime import datetime, timedelta, timezone

GATEWAY = "http://composio-gateway.flycast"
days = int(sys.argv[1]) if len(sys.argv) > 1 else 7
tz_name = sys.argv[2] if len(sys.argv) > 2 else "UTC"

# ... build timeMin/timeMax ...
resp = requests.post(f"{GATEWAY}/internal/execute", json={
    "tool": "GOOGLECALENDAR_EVENTS_LIST",
    "arguments": {"calendarId": "primary", "timeMin": t_min, "timeMax": t_max,
                   "singleEvents": True, "timeZone": tz_name}
}).json()

# ... format and print ...

Then future calls are just: bash("python3 scripts/calendar_events.py 7 Asia/Hong_Kong") โ€” 1 tool call.

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool": "TWITTER_POST_DELETE_BY_POST_ID", "arguments": {"id": "2039756730192601584"}}'

Twitter Response Structure: Post/create returns data.data.data (3-level nesting), contains id, text, edit_history_tweet_ids.

Twitter โ€” Post with Image (FileUploadable flow)

Key constraint: the gateway's /internal/execute is a thin wrapper over Composio v2 actions/{slug}/execute โ€” it does NOT support version pinning or FileUploadable synthesis. Twitter media upload tools (TWITTER_UPLOAD_MEDIA, TWITTER_UPLOAD_LARGE_MEDIA) require both, so they MUST be called via the composio_client Python SDK directly, not via gateway.

The gateway is intentionally generic โ€” keep all per-tool flows (like this one) here in the skill.

3-step flow (proven working):

import hashlib, httpx, json
from pathlib import Path
from composio_client import Composio

# COMPOSIO_API_KEY: read from /data/workspace/composio-gateway/.env
# (gateway owns the key; for skill scripts, source it the same way)
client = Composio(api_key=COMPOSIO_API_KEY)

USER_ID = f"starchild-{user_id}"   # NOTE: hyphen, not underscore
img = Path("output/images/foo.jpg")

# 1. Get presigned S3 upload URL
md5 = hashlib.md5(img.read_bytes()).hexdigest()
presigned = client.files.create_presigned_url(
    filename=img.name, md5=md5, mimetype="image/jpeg",
    tool_slug="TWITTER_UPLOAD_MEDIA", toolkit_slug="twitter",
)
# presigned.type == "new" โ†’ file is new, must PUT
# presigned.type == "existing" โ†’ cached, skip PUT
if presigned.type == "new":
    httpx.put(presigned.new_presigned_url, content=img.read_bytes(),
              headers={"Content-Type": "image/jpeg"}, timeout=60).raise_for_status()

# 2. Execute upload tool โ€” MUST pass version="20260501_00" (or current latest)
#    media is a FileUploadable dict, NOT base64
upload_resp = client.tools.execute(
    tool_slug="TWITTER_UPLOAD_MEDIA",
    user_id=USER_ID,
    version="20260501_00",
    arguments={
        "media": {"name": img.name, "mimetype": "image/jpeg", "s3key": presigned.key},
        "media_type": "image/jpeg",
        "media_category": "tweet_image",   # or "dm_image", "subtitles"
    },
)
result = upload_resp.model_dump()
assert result["successful"], result["error"]
# Response nesting: data.data.id (NOT data.id, NOT data.media_id_string)
media_id = result["data"]["data"]["id"]

# 3. Create tweet with media_media_ids โ€” this one is fine via gateway too
tweet_resp = client.tools.execute(
    tool_slug="TWITTER_CREATION_OF_A_POST",
    user_id=USER_ID,
    arguments={"text": "your tweet text", "media_media_ids": [str(media_id)]},
)
tweet_id = tweet_resp.model_dump()["data"]["data"]["id"]
url = f"https://x.com/i/web/status/{tweet_id}"

Why this works (debugging notes โ€” don't lose this knowledge):

  • GET /api/v3/tools/TWITTER_UPLOAD_MEDIA returns 404 without a version because it lives in toolkit version 20260501_00+, not the default 00000000_00.
  • client.tools.execute(version=...) routes through /api/v3/tools/execute/{slug} which IS version-aware.
  • Gateway uses v2 /api/v2/actions/{slug}/execute for execute โ€” v2 has no version routing, so it can never reach versioned tools. Don't try to "fix" the gateway for this โ€” adding version + FileUploadable would bloat it. Keep it thin.
  • The media param expects {name, mimetype, s3key} (FileUploadable schema), NOT base64. Passing base64 returns: "Input should be a valid dictionary or instance of FileUploadable on parameter media".
  • File size limit for TWITTER_UPLOAD_MEDIA is ~5 MB. For larger files / videos / GIFs, use TWITTER_UPLOAD_LARGE_MEDIA (chunked, same flow but additional segment params).

โš ๏ธ Twitter Limitations & Fallback:

  • TWITTER_RECENT_SEARCH only covers last 7 days, older tweets won't appear
  • TWITTER_FULL_ARCHIVE_SEARCH requires Twitter API Pro access, regular OAuth App can't use it
  • When fetching user tweet history, prefer platform native tool twitter_user_tweets, not limited to 7 days

  -d '{"tool": "GOOGLESHEETS_SPREADSHEETS_VALUES_APPEND", "arguments": {"spreadsheetId": "1abc...xyz", "range": "Sheet1!A:B", "valueInputOption": "USER_ENTERED", "values": [["Bob", 88], ["Charlie", 92]]}}'

โš ๏ธ Google Sheets Notes:

  • valueInputOption: "USER_ENTERED" (parses formulas/numbers) or "RAW" (literal text)
  • ranges uses A1 notation: "Sheet1!A1:D10", "Sheet1!A:A" (entire column)
  • BATCH_GET returns data.data.valueRanges[].values (2D array)
  • spreadsheetId vs spreadsheet_id: some tools use camelCase, some snake_case โ€” check schema if unsure

Important Notes

  • Tool slugs are UPPERCASE: GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL
  • Toolkit slugs are lowercase: gmail, github
  • Arguments key: always use "arguments", never "params" โ€” params silently gets ignored
  • Time parameters: use RFC3339 with timezone offset (2026-04-08T00:00:00+08:00), not UTC unless intended
  • OAuth tokens are managed by Composio โ€” auto-refreshed on expiry
  • Response nesting: Composio execute response is usually data.data, but Twitter is data.data.data (3 levels). Parse by recursively accessing data.
  • Native tool fallback: When Composio tools have limitations (e.g., Twitter search only 7 days), prefer platform built-in native tools (e.g., twitter_user_tweets)

Common Issues

Browserbase connection name mismatch

If /internal/connections shows toolkit browserbase_tool as ACTIVE, but executing BROWSER_TOOL_* returns "No active connection found for toolkit 'browser'", this is a gateway-side toolkit alias mismatch (browserbase_tool vs browser).

What to do:

  1. For session management tools (SESSIONS_*, CONTEXTS_*, UPLOADS_*, etc.), the gateway should normalize Browserbase aliases server-side. If it doesn't, try both BROWSER_TOOL_* and BROWSERBASE_TOOL_* slugs.
  2. For actual browser control (navigate, click, fill, scrape), do NOT use Composio execute โ€” use Playwright connect_over_cdp as described in the Browserbase section above. Composio tools only manage sessions, not page interactions.

Gmail Nested JSON Parsing

Gmail returns complex JSON structure with multiple levels of HTML content. Do not try to parse nested strings with json.loads. Access directly as dict in Python โ€” gateway already returns parsed JSON.
