How cargo proteins are selected for endosomal recycling by the Commander complex is unclear. Here the authors report that the cargo adaptor SNX17 interacts with the Retriever sub-complex to facilitate cargo entry into the Commander endosomal recycling pathway and show that cargo relieves an autoinhibited conformation of SNX17 to promote SNX17-Commander coupling.
