Introduction

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, available on the web, in the desktop app, and on mobile. Cowork is its agent for knowledge work, and it runs on all of those surfaces too. Connected to your apps, Claude can work with your files and services to accomplish complex tasks on your behalf.

This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your DeployHQ account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to trigger a deployment for Project X, list all deployments for Project Y, get status of last deployment, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

Setup is the same on Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork, and you only need to do it once. The connector is tied to your account, so it's available in all three.

Add to Claude

Add manually

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

2. Authorize in your browser

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

3. Connect your DeployHQ account

Back in Claude, ask it to connect to DeployHQ or give it any DeployHQ-related task.

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Trigger a deployment for Project X"
  • "List all deployments for Project Y"
  • "Get status of last deployment"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in Claude, and your DeployHQ account is ready to use.

What is the DeployHQ Claude Connector, and what's possible with it?

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

Troubleshooting

1. Why does Claude not use the Composio connector for DeployHQ?

The connector can show as connected, but Claude must use it in each DeployHQ conversation.

  • Click + at the lower left of the chat, or type /.
  • Hover Connectors.
  • Turn on Composio.
  • Ask Claude to connect to DeployHQ again.

2. Why does Claude show an MCP server error before DeployHQ connects?

Claude can show Couldn't reach the MCP server or Authorization with the MCP server failed when you add the connector for DeployHQ.

  • Check that the connector URL is https://connect.composio.dev/mcp.
  • Connectors run from Anthropic's cloud, so your device network is usually not the problem.
  • Add the connector again from Customize > Connectors, then ask Claude to connect DeployHQ.
  • If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

3. Why does the DeployHQ authorization link not work?

The Composio connector is one server. Your DeployHQ account connects separately when Claude asks for it.

  • If the browser does not open, or the link expires, ask Claude to retry the DeployHQ connection.
  • Composio creates a fresh DeployHQ authorization link.
  • Open that link in your browser and finish the DeployHQ sign-in.

4. Why do DeployHQ actions fail after they worked before?

The DeployHQ connection can expire or lose permission.

  • Ask Claude to inspect the DeployHQ connection.
  • If the connection is unhealthy, disconnect it when Claude prompts you.
  • Reconnect the DeployHQ account and retry the action.
  • If Claude shows a permission prompt, approve it before Claude changes data in DeployHQ.
  • If the action still fails with a permission error, check that the connected account has that permission in DeployHQ itself.

5. How do I switch to a different DeployHQ account?

Claude can manage the DeployHQ connection for you.

  • Ask Claude to disconnect or delete the current DeployHQ account.
  • Ask Claude to connect DeployHQ again.
  • Open the new Composio authorization link for DeployHQ.
  • Sign in with the other DeployHQ account in the browser.
  • After the account connects, ask Claude to retry the DeployHQ task.

6. Why is my DeployHQ connection missing in Claude Desktop or on a Team plan?

The connector belongs to your Claude account, so your DeployHQ connection works in Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork.

  • In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
  • Next to Composio, click and click Clear cache.
  • If DeployHQ tools still do not appear, click , disconnect, remove the connector, and add it again.
  • On Team or Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner must enable the connector before you can connect DeployHQ.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone DeployHQ MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of DeployHQ tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from DeployHQ and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

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 DeployHQ tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which DeployHQ 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.

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 DeployHQ data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
