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 Finage through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The Finage MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Finage account. It provides structured and secure access to real-time and historical financial market data, so your agent can perform actions like fetching live stock quotes, analyzing market trends, retrieving news, and monitoring market status on your behalf.

  • Real-time stock quotes and market snapshots: Instantly get up-to-date price quotes, volume, bid/ask details, or aggregate snapshots for one or multiple stocks at once.
  • Historical and end-of-day data retrieval: Have your agent pull detailed historical or end-of-day OHLCV data for any stock symbol to analyze trends or generate reports.
  • Market news and updates analysis: Stay on top of the latest financial news, filtered by specific stocks, to inform investment decisions or research market events.
  • Market status and exchange monitoring: Check if major stock markets are open or closed, review trading hours, and plan automated trades based on real-time market status.
  • Tick-by-tick and previous close data access: Dive into granular tick-level trade data or review the previous day's close for any symbol to support high-frequency trading or day-over-day analysis.

How to build Finage MCP Agent with another framework

FAQ

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

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

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

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