## 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 Cincopa account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to upload this video from a Dropbox link, check status of your latest image upload, abort the ongoing upload for this audio file, 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 Cincopa through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The Cincopa MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Cincopa account. It provides structured and secure access to your multimedia libraries, so your agent can perform actions like uploading new media, monitoring upload progress, validating connections, and managing ongoing uploads on your behalf.
- Remote media uploading: Effortlessly instruct your agent to upload new videos, images, or audio directly from external URLs into your Cincopa galleries or asset collections.
- Upload status tracking: Have your agent check and report the real-time status of ongoing or recently initiated media uploads for better workflow oversight.
- Abort in-progress uploads: Direct your agent to cancel unnecessary or stalled asset uploads to keep your media workspace organized and efficient.
- API connection validation: Let your agent verify and confirm your API credentials and connectivity with Cincopa, ensuring secure and reliable integration at all times.

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

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

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