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 Beamer through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent. ## What is the Beamer MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Beamer MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Beamer account. It provides structured and secure access to your Beamer news posts, notifications, and categories, so your agent can perform actions like retrieving posts, counting updates, fetching notifications, and managing user engagement—all on your behalf. - Instant post retrieval and listing: Ask your agent to fetch the latest product updates or announcements, or list all posts with their IDs and titles for quick reference. - Engagement analytics and reactions: Have the agent pull post reaction data, so you can understand how users are responding to your news and updates. - Notification management: Let your agent retrieve unread notifications or fetch full details about specific notifications, helping you stay on top of user engagement in real time. - Comment and feedback access: Easily get all comments on a particular post, enabling you to review direct user feedback and respond accordingly. - Feed and category insights: Fetch personalized feed URLs or retrieve detailed information about categories to better segment and embed announcement streams for your users. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `BEAMER_COUNT_POST_COMMENTS` | Count Post Comments | Tool to count existing comments on a specific post.

With a standalone Beamer MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Beamer tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Beamer 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 Beamer tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Beamer while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Beamer 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 Beamer data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
