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 Basin through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

What is the Basin MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Basin MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Basin account. It provides structured and secure access to your forms and projects, so your agent can perform actions like creating forms, managing webhooks, organizing projects, and retrieving domain or form details on your behalf.

  • Instant form creation and management: Ask your agent to set up new forms with custom settings, associate them with projects, or delete forms you no longer need—all without manual coding.
  • Seamless project organization: Let your agent create new Basin projects to group related forms or delete obsolete projects, keeping your workspace tidy and efficient.
  • Automated webhook and integration setup: Have your agent add or remove webhooks for specific forms, so submissions are instantly routed to the right endpoints or external services.
  • Detailed form and account insights: Retrieve rich metadata about any form or get a full list of domains linked to your Basin account, helping you monitor and audit your form infrastructure.
  • Effortless notification management: Empower your agent to configure notification webhooks, ensuring critical submissions reach your team or external tools in real time.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Basin MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Basin tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Basin and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

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 Basin tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Basin 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.

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 Basin data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
