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 Codacy account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to list all projects in your Codacy account, show details for your active Codacy organizations, enumerate repositories for a specific organization, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

4. Connect your Codacy account

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

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "List all projects in your Codacy account"
  • "Show details for your active Codacy organizations"
  • "Enumerate repositories for a specific organization"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in Cowork, and your Codacy 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 Codacy through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The Codacy MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Codacy account. It provides structured and secure access to your code quality dashboard, so your agent can perform actions like listing projects, managing API tokens, checking organization repositories, and retrieving user account details on your behalf.

  • Automated project listing and discovery: Instantly fetch a comprehensive list of all projects accessible to your Codacy account for quick overview and navigation.
  • Organization and repository management: Ask your agent to enumerate all organizations you belong to and drill into the repositories associated with each, helping you keep track of where your code lives.
  • API token lifecycle management: Effortlessly create or delete API tokens as needed, making it easy to manage secure integrations and access controls without leaving your flow.
  • User account insights and verification: Retrieve account details to confirm authentication, audit user info, or set up new integrations with confidence.

FAQ

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

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

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

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