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 Draftable account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to show all document comparisons from this week, list recent PDF vs Word comparison results, find PowerPoint files compared in the past day, 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.

3. Connect your Draftable account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Show all document comparisons from this week"
  • "List recent PDF vs Word comparison results"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Draftable MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Draftable account. It provides structured and secure access to your document comparison data, so your agent can perform actions like listing past comparisons, retrieving comparison history, monitoring document analysis, and supporting review workflows on your behalf.

  • Retrieve comparison history: Quickly access a paginated list of all your past document comparisons, making it easy to track changes over time.
  • Monitor document analysis activity: Let your agent surface recent or ongoing document comparisons for status checks or workflow integration.
  • Support audit and review workflows: Automatically pull up records of previous comparisons for compliance, quality control, or review sessions.
  • Integrate comparison summaries: Enable agents to fetch summaries or overviews of document differences for reporting or sharing across your team.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

  • 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 Draftable.
  • If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

3. Why does the Draftable authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Draftable connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Draftable connection for you.

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

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

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

  • In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
  • Next to Composio, click and click Clear cache.
  • If Draftable 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 Draftable.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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