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 Felt account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to add geojson features to an existing map, duplicate a project map for a new client, delete a layer from your city zoning map, 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 Felt account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Add geojson features to an existing map"
  • "Duplicate a project map for a new client"
  • "Delete a layer from your city zoning map"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Felt MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Felt account. It provides structured and secure access to your maps, projects, and geospatial data, so your agent can perform actions like creating projects, modifying maps, updating map elements, and retrieving user or map details on your behalf.

  • Project and map creation: Instantly have your agent create new Felt projects and initialize interactive maps to kickstart geospatial workflows.
  • Element and layer management: Direct your agent to add, update, or delete map elements and layers—making it easy to modify map content or clean up unwanted data.
  • Map duplication and deletion: Clone existing maps for experimentation or backup, or remove entire maps and projects when they’re no longer needed.
  • Detailed map and user insights: Retrieve comprehensive details about any specific map or your authenticated user profile for streamlined map management and reporting.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Felt authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Felt connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Felt connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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