## Introduction

Cowork is Anthropic's AI agent for knowledge work. Think of it as Claude Code for everything else. It works autonomously with your computer, local files, and applications to accomplish complex tasks.
This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Chatwork account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to list all unread messages across rooms, upload meeting notes file to project room, get all members of marketing chat, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

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

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

The Chatwork MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Chatwork account. It provides structured and secure access to your chats, contacts, files, and rooms, so your agent can perform actions like sending messages, managing tasks, retrieving files, and organizing team communications on your behalf.
- Room and member management: Easily fetch all chat rooms, list members in any room, and keep your workspace organized by letting your agent handle the heavy lifting.
- Smart message retrieval and deletion: Have your agent pull recent messages from any chat, search for important info, or even delete specific messages when needed.
- File sharing and retrieval: Seamlessly upload files to any Chatwork room or retrieve details and download links for files already shared, making document collaboration a breeze.
- Contact and status insights: Instantly get a list of all your Chatwork contacts or check your current unread messages and task status without switching tabs.
- Automated task and notification workflows: Let your agent monitor unread messages, mentions, and tasks, helping you stay on top of communication and never miss an important update.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Chatwork MCP?

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

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

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