4. Connect your Btcpay server account

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

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "Create a new Bitcoin payment request for your store"
  • "List all payment requests for store ABC123"
  • "Register a webhook for payment notifications"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in Cowork, and your Btcpay server account is ready to use.

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

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

The Btcpay server MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Btcpay server account. It provides structured and secure access to your Bitcoin payment infrastructure, so your agent can perform actions like creating payment requests, managing stores, handling API keys, and automating webhooks on your behalf.

  • Automated payment request creation: Instruct your agent to generate new payment requests for your stores, making it simple to accept Bitcoin payments from customers without manual setup.
  • Store management and provisioning: Let your agent create, configure, or remove stores in your Btcpay server environment to support multiple business units or projects.
  • API key administration: Ask your agent to list, retrieve, or revoke API keys, streamlining secure access control for developers and integrations.
  • Webhook registration for event automation: Enable your agent to register webhooks, so you can receive instant notifications or trigger workflows when key payment or store events occur.
  • User and payout management: Have the agent create new server users programmatically or delete store payouts that are no longer needed, giving you granular control over your payment operations.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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

We chose Composio over Pipedream because it delivered depth where it mattered — niche tools and tricky edge cases other platforms simply ignored. That gave us confidence to scale without compromising.

As a solo builder, shipping fast is life or death. The only way I can outcompete incumbents is by outmanoeuvring them. Getting bogged down managing agent auth would have been a death sentence.

Before Composio, adding tool integrations was slow and resource-intensive. Each one could take weeks of engineering time, and maintaining them meant constantly keeping up with API changes.
