4. Connect your Bidsketch account

Back in Cowork, ask the agent to connect to Bidsketch or give it any Bidsketch-related task.

For example, ask Cowork to:

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

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

The Bidsketch MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Bidsketch account. It provides structured and secure access to your proposals and client data, so your agent can perform actions like creating clients, managing proposals, organizing sections, and handling fees on your behalf.

  • Client creation and management: Easily have your agent add new clients to Bidsketch or retrieve detailed client information by ID.
  • Proposal organization and cleanup: Direct your agent to list, delete, or manage proposals for specific clients, streamlining your workflow and keeping things tidy.
  • Section and fee management: Let your agent add or remove proposal sections and fees, ensuring each proposal is perfectly structured before sending.
  • Webhook and automation controls: Remove webhooks or automate repetitive admin tasks to keep your Bidsketch account running smoothly with minimal manual effort.

How to build Bidsketch MCP Agent with another framework

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Bidsketch MCP?

With a standalone Bidsketch MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Bidsketch tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Bidsketch 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 Bidsketch tools.

Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Bidsketch while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Bidsketch 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 Bidsketch data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
