4. Connect your Discord account

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

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "List all Discord servers I belong to"
  • "Show your connected accounts on Discord"
  • "Fetch your Discord profile information"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Discord MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Discord account. It provides structured and secure access to your Discord profile, connected accounts, servers, and invites, so your agent can fetch user details, list your servers (guilds), retrieve invite info, and manage your Discord presence on your behalf.

  • Retrieve and manage user profile information: Your agent can fetch your Discord profile details, including email and connected third-party accounts, to help keep your data organized and up-to-date.
  • Server (guild) discovery and membership checks: Effortlessly list all servers you belong to and verify your membership status in any server.
  • Access invite details and server info: Instantly get information about specific Discord invite codes, including the destination server or channel details.
  • Guild member insights: Allow your agent to retrieve your own guild member information across servers, including permissions and roles.
  • OAuth2 application and authorization review: Let your agent fetch your app’s OAuth2 authorization details, so you always know what permissions are granted and when tokens expire.

FAQ

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

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

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

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