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 Crowdin account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to create a new Crowdin project for our app, add new source file to the translations project, assign sprint label to specific string IDs, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

Also integrate Crowdin with

Connecting Crowdin to Claude Cowork

1. Open Customize

In Claude Desktop, click Customize in the left sidebar, then select Connectors and click the + icon at the top.

2. Add the Composio MCP server

Click Add custom connector and paste in the Composio MCP server URL:

bash
https://connect.composio.dev/mcp
Add custom connector dialog with Composio MCP server URL

3. Authorize in your browser

Click Connect. You'll be redirected to a browser window where you can authorize Composio to continue.

4. Connect your Crowdin account

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

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "Create a new Crowdin project for our app"
  • "Add new source file to the translations project"
  • "Assign sprint label to specific string IDs"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Crowdin MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Crowdin account. It provides structured and secure access to your localization projects, so your agent can manage branches, organize files, label content, automate webhooks, and orchestrate translation workflows on your behalf.

  • Branch and project management: Easily have your agent create, delete, or organize Crowdin projects and branches to streamline new releases or features.
  • Dynamic file handling: Let your agent add new files to projects, ensuring your translation assets are always up to date and properly organized by branch or directory.
  • Labeling and content categorization: Direct your agent to create, assign, or remove labels on resources and strings, helping you segment and track translation tasks with precision.
  • Workflow automation with webhooks: Automate your translation process by having the agent set up or remove webhooks for real-time notifications and integrations.
  • Resource cleanup and maintenance: Empower your agent to delete obsolete branches, labels, webhooks, or entire projects, keeping your Crowdin workspace clean and focused.

How to build Crowdin MCP Agent with another framework

FAQ

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

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

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

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