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

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

The Botpress MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Botpress account. It provides structured and secure access to your chatbot platform, so your agent can perform actions like listing conversations, managing bot files, tracking issues, and exploring workspaces on your behalf.

  • Comprehensive conversation management: Retrieve and paginate through all chatbot conversations, making it easy to review chat history and analyze user interactions.
  • Bot issue tracking and diagnostics: List and investigate issues related to specific bots, helping you stay informed about errors or configuration problems as they arise.
  • Workspace discovery and organization: Browse both public and private workspaces, making it seamless to manage your bot environments or explore new collaborative spaces.
  • File and tag oversight: List, manage, and categorize bot files and their associated tags or tag values, streamlining bot asset organization.
  • Account information access: Instantly fetch authenticated account details so your agent always works with the latest profile and permission data.

How to build Botpress MCP Agent with another framework

FAQ

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

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

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

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