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 Emelia account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to find email address for John Doe at Acme Corp, add jane.smith@email.com to New Leads campaign, remove bob.jones@company.com from Q2 Outreach campaign, 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 Emelia account

For example, ask Claude to:

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

The Emelia MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Emelia account. It provides structured and secure access to your B2B outreach operations, so your agent can perform actions like launching campaigns, managing contacts, finding prospect emails, and tracking outreach activities on your behalf.

  • Automated campaign creation and management: Instruct your agent to create new email or LinkedIn campaigns, add contacts, or remove contacts from campaigns to keep your outreach efforts streamlined and organized.
  • Prospect email discovery: Have your agent find verified email addresses for specific contacts using full name and company details, accelerating your lead generation process.
  • Contact blacklisting and compliance: Direct your agent to add contacts to the blacklist, ensuring that no further emails are sent and helping you stay compliant with outreach best practices.
  • Real-time campaign activity tracking: Retrieve detailed campaign activities and create webhooks to monitor engagement, so you’re always up to date on your outreach performance.
  • Webhook automation for event-driven workflows: Let your agent create or delete webhooks to automate follow-ups and synchronize campaign updates across your sales stack.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Emelia authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Emelia connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Emelia connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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