How to connect Gemini to Claude

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 Gemini account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to summarize this research article in 100 words, generate a creative image of a futuristic city, create a 30-second video based on this script, 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.

The Gemini MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Gemini account. It provides structured and secure access to Gemini's multimodal AI features, so your agent can generate text, images, and videos, analyze content, and manage model resources on your behalf.

• Text and content generation: Instruct your agent to create high-quality, customized text using Gemini's advanced generative models—great for brainstorming, drafting, or summarizing information.
• Creative image and video generation: Ask the agent to generate original images or high-quality videos from text prompts using Gemini 2.5 Flash and Veo models, with fine control over style and format.
• Embedding and semantic analysis: Let your agent transform any text into rich semantic embeddings for similarity search, clustering, or classification tasks.
• Model discovery and optimization: Have the agent list available Gemini and Veo models, check their capabilities, and select the best fit for your project or workflow.
• Efficient resource management: Enable the agent to track video generation operations, download final assets, and optimize prompt inputs by counting tokens—all without manual intervention.
