August was a busy month at Composio. We added hundreds of toolkits, rebuilt the toolkit browsing experience, launched a Skills tab and a bigger free tier, and shipped a batch of SDK fixes for developers building with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Tool Router. 1,500+ toolkits and countingWe added nearly 400 toolkits in August, taking the catalog past 1,500. New additions include Google NotebookLM, Looker Studio, Mindbody, Line, Readwise Reader, Pinterest Ads, GoCardless MCP, and many more. We also added or improved authentication for Gemini, Vercel, Ahrefs, and Pinterest. - If you use Composio to connect Claude, ChatGPT, Hermes, or another agent to your apps: you can now connect to over 1,500 of them.
- If you're building an agent on top of Composio: your users can now connect over 1,500 of their favorite apps.

Redesigned toolkits pageToolkits are grouped by app, search and filters are faster, and Composio Managed apps and provider MCPs are clearly labeled. Don't see the app you need? You can now add your own custom toolkit from the same page. |
Skills are now in the dashboardSkills are step-by-step playbooks that give your agent guidance on how to work with a toolkit: which tools to call, in what order, and what to watch out for. The new Skills tab in the dashboard lets you browse the skills available for your toolkits and see exactly what your agent will follow. If you're building with a coding agent, the Composio setup skill gets you configured in one command: npx skills add ComposioHQ/composio --skill composio
|
We also launched a hosted Knowledge Base with troubleshooting and integration guidance that goes beyond the docs. The setup skill knows how to navigate it, so your agent can look things up for you. |
A 5x bigger free tier and a new Pro planTwo pricing changes last month: - The free tier is now 100,000 tool calls per month, up from 20,000.
- A new self-serve Pro plan at $29/month for teams that have outgrown free but don't need an enterprise contract. You can upgrade directly from the Billing page.

Agents @ WorkWe launched Agents @ Work, a live snapshot of what AI agents actually do across the apps they connect to, drawn from a sample of real traffic running through Composio. A few things it shows right now: - Agents mostly read. About 95% of actions are reads; creates, updates, and deletes together make up the rest.
- Communication dominates. Chat and email apps account for more than half of all agent work, with productivity tools next.
- Some jobs are far more read-heavy than others. Support runs close to 1 write per 2 reads; calendars run about 1 write per 100 reads.
- Most work is repetitive. Roughly two-thirds of last week's actions repeated something agents had handled before.
- HR & recruiting is the fastest-growing category this week, and Fleetio, Wix, and SharePoint are the fastest-growing apps.
It's updated weekly and published under CC BY 4.0, so feel free to use the charts in your own work. |
7 changes that make it easier to build on Composio| 01 | Better strict-mode support for OpenAI. @composio/core@0.18.0 fixes strict-mode tool schemas for OpenAI structured outputs. Nested objects, optional parameters, arrays, and schema references now follow OpenAI's strict schema requirements, optional parameters stay available instead of disappearing, and unsupported schemas fall back from strict mode with a useful warning. The same fixes are in the latest OpenAI, OpenAI Agents, Mastra, and Vercel packages, and the OpenAI package now supports OpenAI SDK versions 6 and 7. Release notes |
| 02 | Tool calls can use Tool Router sessions. The OpenAI and Anthropic provider helpers can now execute tool calls through an existing Tool Router session, keeping session context attached while Composio handles provider-specific argument normalization. Existing user-ID-based calls work as before. See what changed in @composio/core@0.17.0 |
| 03 | A smoother CLI. The installer sets up your shell automatically by default, and the CLI now resolves toolkits from a local catalog, cutting unnecessary catalog requests. |
| 04 | Scope recommendations (beta). New APIs can recommend the OAuth scopes an app needs for a given set of toolkit actions, so you can request only what you'll use. |
| 05 | More granular API key permissions. Project API keys now separate session management from tool execution. Existing keys continue to work. |
| 07 | 10x higher Google Tasks limits. Google increased the rate limits for the managed Google Tasks app. |
| ! | Node.js version requirement |
The latest published TypeScript packages require Node.js 22.22.3 or newer. Package managers will now flag an incompatible runtime before you hit ESM loading errors. |
