Composio — 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)↓ HTTP (auto-authenticated by IPv6)Composio Gateway (composio-gateway.fly.dev)↓ Composio SDKComposio Cloud → Target API (Gmail, Slack, etc.)
- You never touch the COMPOSIO_API_KEY — the gateway holds it
- You never call Composio SDK directly — use the gateway HTTP API
- Authentication is automatic — your Fly 6PN IPv6 resolves to a user_id via the billing DB
- No env vars needed — 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 — 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 — 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 $GATEWAY/internal/execute \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"tool": "GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL", "arguments": {"to": "x@example.com", "subject": "Hi", "body": "Hello!"}}'
On success:
{"data": {"messages": [...]}, "error": null}
On failure — includes tool_schema so you can self-correct:
{"data": null,"error": "Missing required parameter: calendarId","tool_schema": {"tool_slug": "GOOGLECALENDAR_EVENTS_LIST","description": "...","input_parameters": {"properties": {...}, "required": [...]}}}
4. List User's Connections (and confirm OAuth completion)
# Optional toolkit filter: oauth_completed_active only turns true# when that toolkit status is ACTIVE.curl -s "$GATEWAY/internal/connections?toolkit=gmail"
Response includes:
connections: current deduplicated connection listoauth_completed_active: boolean, true only when OAuth completion is observed asACTIVE
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":"..."}
2) Publish draft:
INSTAGRAM_CREATE_POST- Required:
ig_user_id,creation_id
Two-step flow:
- Execute
INSTAGRAM_CREATE_MEDIA_CONTAINER→ readdata.data.idascreation_id - Execute
INSTAGRAM_CREATE_POSTwith thatcreation_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 — 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 ossession_id = "<session_id from step 1>"api_key = os.environ.get("BROWSERBASE_API_KEY") # stored in workspace/.envcdp_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_playwrightasync 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 — full Playwright APIawait 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 — 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
| Aspect | Detail | |
|---|---|---|
| Composio role | Session lifecycle only — create, list, delete sessions | |
| Playwright role | Page control — navigate, click, fill, scrape, screenshot | |
| Memory cost | ~30-50MB locally (Playwright client only); Chromium runs on Browserbase servers | |
| Anti-detection | Browserbase handles it server-side — fingerprint masking, captcha solving, Cloudflare bypass. Playwright client does nothing special. | |
| Billing | Per-minute (rounded up). Always delete sessions when done. |

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 toolkitbrowserbase
Quick diagnosis:
# 1) Health + active connectionscurl -s $GATEWAY/healthcurl -s $GATEWAY/internal/connections# 2) Search browser tool slugscurl -s -X POST $GATEWAY/internal/search \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"query":"browserbase create task"}'# 3) Try execute and inspect exact errorcurl -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_* ↔ BROWSER_TOOL_*) so both old/new clients work with a browserbase_tool active connection.
Optimal Workflow (minimize tool calls)
Known tool → 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 → Search + Schema + Execute (2-3 calls)
- Search (compact) → pick the right tool slug
- Get schema (if param details unclear) → know exact argument format
- Execute → with correct arguments
If execute fails, the error response includes the full schema — 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 python3import sys, json, requestsfrom datetime import datetime, timedelta, timezoneGATEWAY = "http://composio-gateway.flycast"days = int(sys.argv[1]) if len(sys.argv) > 1 else 7tz_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") — 1 tool call.

Twitter Response Structure: Post/create returns data.data.data (3-level nesting), contains id, text, edit_history_tweet_ids.
Twitter — Post with Image (FileUploadable flow)
Key constraint: the gateway's /internal/execute is a thin wrapper over Composio v2 actions/{slug}/execute — 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 — keep all per-tool flows (like this one) here in the skill.
3-step flow (proven working):
import hashlib, httpx, jsonfrom pathlib import Pathfrom 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 underscoreimg = Path("output/images/foo.jpg")# 1. Get presigned S3 upload URLmd5 = 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" → file is new, must PUT# presigned.type == "existing" → cached, skip PUTif 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 — MUST pass version="20260501_00" (or current latest)# media is a FileUploadable dict, NOT base64upload_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 — this one is fine via gateway tootweet_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 — don't lose this knowledge):
GET /api/v3/tools/TWITTER_UPLOAD_MEDIAreturns 404 without a version because it lives in toolkit version20260501_00+, not the default00000000_00.client.tools.execute(version=...)routes through/api/v3/tools/execute/{slug}which IS version-aware.- Gateway uses v2
/api/v2/actions/{slug}/executefor execute — v2 has no version routing, so it can never reach versioned tools. Don't try to "fix" the gateway for this — adding version + FileUploadable would bloat it. Keep it thin. - The
mediaparam expects{name, mimetype, s3key}(FileUploadable schema), NOT base64. Passing base64 returns: "Input should be a valid dictionary or instance of FileUploadable on parametermedia". - File size limit for
TWITTER_UPLOAD_MEDIAis ~5 MB. For larger files / videos / GIFs, useTWITTER_UPLOAD_LARGE_MEDIA(chunked, same flow but additional segment params).
⚠️ Twitter Limitations & Fallback:
TWITTER_RECENT_SEARCHonly covers last 7 days, older tweets won't appearTWITTER_FULL_ARCHIVE_SEARCHrequires 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

Important Notes
- Tool slugs are UPPERCASE:
GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL - Toolkit slugs are lowercase:
gmail,github - Arguments key: always use
"arguments", never"params"—paramssilently 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 — auto-refreshed on expiry
- Response nesting: Composio execute response is usually
data.data, but Twitter isdata.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:
- For session management tools (
SESSIONS_*,CONTEXTS_*,UPLOADS_*, etc.), the gateway should normalize Browserbase aliases server-side. If it doesn't, try bothBROWSER_TOOL_*andBROWSERBASE_TOOL_*slugs. - For actual browser control (navigate, click, fill, scrape), do NOT use Composio execute — use Playwright
connect_over_cdpas 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 — gateway already returns parsed JSON.
