Think of it as Claude Code for everything else. It works autonomously with your computer, local files, and applications to accomplish complex tasks. This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Api labz account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to validate this IBAN before making payment, add a new deal record to CRM, list all Airtable tables in your project base, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security. ## Also integrate Api labz with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/claude-code) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/crew-ai) ## Connect Api labz to Claude Cowork ### Connecting Api labz to Claude Cowork 1. Open Customize In Claude Desktop, click Customize in the left sidebar, then select Connectors and click the + icon at the top. 2. Add the Composio MCP server Click Add custom connector and paste in the Composio MCP server URL: ```bash https://connect.composio.dev/mcp ``` ## What is Claude Cowork? Claude Cowork is Anthropic's agent for general knowledge work. It can use your computer, files, and connected applications to complete longer-running tasks across your work tools. With Composio Connect, Cowork can securely access apps like Api labz through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent. ## What is the Api labz MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Api labz MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Api labz account. It provides structured and secure access to a suite of AI-driven APIs, so your agent can validate IBANs, manage deals, search Trello boards, and retrieve Airtable tables on your behalf. - IBAN validation for finance workflows: Instantly check and verify international bank account numbers to ensure they are correctly formatted before processing transactions. - Automated deal integration: Seamlessly push new or updated deal records into your Api labz system, making it easy to automate CRM or sales processes. - AI-powered Trello board search: Leverage AI-driven queries to quickly find relevant Trello boards, lists, or cards, streamlining project management and task tracking. - Airtable table discovery: Effortlessly retrieve and list all tables within a specified Airtable base, enabling dynamic data access and management for your applications. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `API_LABZ_IBAN_VALIDATOR` | Validate IBAN | Tool to validate International Bank Account Numbers (IBANs). Use when you need to verify an IBAN's structure before processing transactions. | | `API_LABZ_INTEGRATE_DEAL` | Integrate Deal | Tool to integrate a deal into API Labz. Use when you need to push a new or updated deal record into the system after preparing required fields. | | `API_LABZ_LIST_TABLES` | List Airtable Tables | Tool to list all Airtable tables for a given base. Use when you need to retrieve table names before interacting with a table. | | `API_LABZ_TRELLO_AI_SEARCH_ENGINE` | Trello AI Search Engine | AI-powered semantic search tool for Trello cards across boards and lists. Use this when you need to: - Find cards by natural language queries (e.g., "bug reports from last week") - Search across multiple Trello boards or within a specific board/list - Locate cards containing specific keywords, topics, or concepts - Discover relevant cards without knowing exact titles Returns matching cards with IDs, titles, descriptions, and direct URLs for easy access. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Api labz MCP server connects Claude Cowork to your Api labz account through Composio. Once connected, Cowork can use the available Api labz tools and triggers to complete tasks on your behalf. ## Complete Code None listed. ## How to build Api labz MCP Agent with another framework - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/claude-code) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_labz/framework/crew-ai) ## Related Toolkits - [Composio](https://composio.dev/toolkits/composio) - Composio is an integration platform that connects AI agents with hundreds of business tools.

With a standalone Api labz MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Api labz tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Api labz and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Claude Cowork? Yes, you can. Claude Cowork fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Api labz tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Api labz while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Api labz scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do. ### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router? All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Api labz data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
