## 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 CoinGecko account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to get current price of bitcoin usd, list top ten coins by market cap, fetch ethereum historical prices last month, 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 CoinGecko through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The CoinGecko MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your CoinGecko account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform CoinGecko operations on your behalf.

## Frequently Asked Questions

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

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

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

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