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

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

The Chatbotkit MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Chatbotkit account. It provides structured and secure access to your chatbot platform, so your agent can perform actions like managing bots, handling conversations, integrating support channels, and organizing skillsets on your behalf.

  • Manage and list bots: Effortlessly retrieve and manage all of your chatbots, making it simple to keep tabs on each one in your workspace.
  • Conversation tracking and messaging: Browse conversation history, fetch conversation messages, and send new messages for dynamic real-time interactions with users.
  • Integration setup and management: Create and list integrations to connect your bots with external channels or support systems without manual configuration.
  • Skillset and dataset organization: Create, list, and manage skillsets and datasets to extend your bots’ capabilities and tailor responses to your business needs.
  • Partner and sub-account management: View and organize all partner accounts or sub-accounts associated with your main Chatbotkit account for streamlined administration.

FAQ

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

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

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

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